This February, Istanbul’s charming Old Town district welcomed Sanasaryan Han, a brand-new luxury hotel occupying a 19th-century, Neoclassical building. Just steps from landmarks like the Spice and Grand Bazaar, the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, the property underwent meticulous restoration, honoring its heritage with a curated collection of artifacts and antiques waiting to be found.
