Pick this if you're bringing children. Our list has no other hotel with a separate kids' swimming pool, and a pool-side cocktail bar serves adults next to the main pool, in Asmalı Mescit.
The pool
Besides an outdoor swimming pool, the hotel has a separate kids' pool, with panoramic Istanbul views. A pool-side cocktail bar serves drinks next to the rooftop pool, and the Mikla rooftop restaurant is open-air. The hotel doesn't publish a floor, opening dates or pool hours.
Our take
The Marmara Pera is the family-friendlier choice here. The Ritz-Carlton keeps children under 12 out of its infinity pool, while this hotel lists a pool just for kids. It's also a 4-star, where the other two are 5-star.
Little is published, and that's the downside. There's no floor, no season dates and no hours for the pool, and we don't have a heating fact. Contact the hotel before you plan a swim around it.

Tips
- Ask the hotel for pool dates and hours at booking, as neither is published.
- Book June to August if swimming matters. Istanbul's highs reach 30°C in July and August.
Before you go. Ask the hotel when the pool opens and closes, and what hours the kids' pool runs.
