We were there for a few days in esrly April, a largish group of 9 couples, all good friends. The St Regis was an outstanding experience for so many reasons, where do I begin...first and foremost, the wonderful rooms, recently refurbished, elegant luxury, very spacious, great views. Next, the location, Nisantasi is the place to stay - central, great restaurants and shops in the streets surrounding the hotel, the wonderful Demokrasi Park just across the road for morning walks, clean air and nice views. Third, wonderful service with a smile, be it the charming Melissa at breakfast, or the dashing Mehti at the Concierge desk, both of whom took our many requests in their stride without missing a beat. We loved our visit and will be back!
