Samokatus Hotels

A recently opened Curio Collection property offering spacious apartment‑style suites with kitchenettes, a sizable spa (pool, sauna, hammam) and consistently praised staff — many guests name front‑desk and restaurant team members. Located in Altunizade near Üsküdar, it’s quieter than central Sultanahmet but just a short ride from Bosphorus attractions, making it great for families, business travelers and longer stays.

Perched atop the Otemachi Tower, Aman Tokyo is a serene sanctuary that beautifully fuses traditional Japanese minimalist aesthetics with modern luxury. Guests are welcomed into a dramatic 30-meter-high lobby featuring a rock garden, before retreating to exceptionally spacious rooms with window-side stone bathtubs overlooking the Imperial Palace and Mount Fuji. The world-class wellness center, complete with a stunning 30-meter pool and traditional onsen, offers an unmatched escape from the bustling city.

Aman’s Amanyangyun is a serene luxury resort built around a relocated camphor forest and meticulously reconstructed Ming and Qing houses, creating a museum‑like park within easy reach of Shanghai. Guests consistently praise the architecture, spacious rooms and personalised staff service, while a few note occasional cleanliness glitches and airplane noise because of the nearby flight path.

The five-star Ambassadori Kachreti Golf Resort in Kachreti, with its own winery, three pools, spa, golf course, horseback riding and more, offers a range of rooms from standard to presidential suites and villas. Prices per night start from 8,800 rubles.
