50. Shangri-La Bosphorus, Istanbul — Turkey
$$$ | READERS' CHOICE AWARDS 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022
Well-situated along the European side of the Bosphorus Strait, this Turkish outpost of this Hong Kong–based luxury brand occupies a former to***co warehouse built in the 1930s. The rooms are done up in a sumptuous palette of grays and neutrals, with a whimsical treat on your bedside table: a copy of James Hilton's 1933 novel Lost Horizon, which introduced to the world the mythical paradise that gave the chain its name. The hotel's Cantonese restaurant, Shang Palace, sets the standard for Istanbul fine-dining, with chefs hand-pulling noodles table-side and preparing Peking duck that's served over two elaborate courses. And at CHI, The Spa, the Turkish bath experience is elevated with experiences like full body moisturization with milk and honey.
