Escapes A Luxurious Encounter

The five-star hotel Mandarin Oriental Bosphorus, Istanbul sits in the dazzling shoreline where East and West collide and OHLALA had the pleasure to explore this stunning property.

Istanbul is a metropolis like no other. Marking the point where East meets West, this historic location is the only city simultaneously situated in Asia and Europe. OHLALA travelled to this enchanting part of the world, compliments of Mandarin Oriental Bosphorus, Istanbul, to experience all the luxury this five-star venue has on offer.

Meet And Greet Service

Luxury begins when we land. Istanbul International Airport’s Meet and Greet service is unmatched. Arranged by the hotel, you’ll be whisked away in a luxury golf cart straight to the car. It took eight minutes from disembarking the plane to finding ourselves seated in a Mercedes-Benz on our way to the hotel. No walking, no queues, no waiting for luggage or going through customs. It’s all taken care of for you by the incredible team.

First Impressions

As we pulled up to Mandarin Oriental, we were still buzzing from the glimpses of the vibrant city we experienced en route. Even from the car, all the sights, sounds and smells beckoned us to explore this proverbial melting pot of the old and the new.
