Marriott International has continued its expansion into Eastern Europe with the opening of its 259-bedroom Istanbul Marriott Hotel Sisli on 7 March, marking the brand’s 11th location in Turkey.

The five-star hotel – the latest addition to the Istanbul skyline – offers a health club and a 24,750sq ft (2,300sq m) spa with four treatment rooms, two of which are for couples.

Facilities at the health club and spa include a sauna, indoor swimming pool, spa pool, steamroom, Hammam, ice fountain and experience showers, as well as a fitness centre offering a gym, tennis court and studio sessions in pilates, yoga, stretching, ABS, GYM Stick and Bosu.

A number of treatments are on offer including the signature Pure Dream and Shining Soul treatments, as well as several facials, massages, scrubs, facials, manicures and pedicures.

Guests can also enjoy three distinct dining and beverage options in the hotel – The Dish Room Restaurant offering Mediterranean cuisine, The Terrace Bar for drinks and The Great Room Lounge and My Bar for an array of light and more substantial menu items.

The hotel is situated within a 34-storey building on the European side of Istanbul and sits between the business districts of Levent and Taksim.
