The Sofa Hotels & Residences
When renowned Turkish architect Sinan Kafadar built Istanbul’s Sofa Hotel, he had something bigger in mind than just an average boutique property. His creation is a mash-up of chic atmosphere, ultra-modern technology, extraordinary service and celebrated art gallery – a true gem of the local hotel scene, dressed in minimalist chic with hints of Ottoman flair.

Of course, The Sofa comes equipped with everything guests have come to expect of a modern luxury hotel: fitness room, pool, sauna, steam room and Turkish bath. In addition, there’s the Taylife Detox and Wellness Center, where trained experts offer a broad range of facial and body therapies as well as creating personalised detoxification programmes featuring everything from yoga to massage. The hotel also features a Longtable Bar and two restaurants: Café Sofa, where guests can choose from a menu of gourmet international cuisine, and TuuS, where they can enjoy celebrated New Mediterranean gastronomy.
The Sofa’s 65 deluxe rooms and 17 suites come fully outfitted with high-speed wireless Internet, interactive satellite television, video on demand, CD and DVD player, bar setup, rainfall shower, bathtub, pillow menu and, naturally, specially-designed sofa. Their highlight, though, is a 24-hour Anything, Anytime button, which functions precisely as it sounds. Guests can be assured of receiving personalised, no-hold-barred service around the clock. The hotel’s piece de resistance, however, is its penthouse art gallery, Art*8, 300 square metres of indoor space and 350 square metres of outdoor space offering stunning city views.
