ISTANBUL: A ROOFTOP PARADISE

Istanbul has definitely the most iconic city skyline and sunsets I have seen so far.

During my time there with the Stylebook Blogstars and Boomads teams, I stayed at
the Marmara Pera Hotel, located in the shopping area of Beyoglu, and I must admit
that it was an outstanding location. Tourists were paying big bucks to get a view of the

silhouette of the city across the canal, but all I had to do was to stand on our rooftop 

for the most amazing view you could ask for. Check it out yourself after the break!

The hotel was just superb with great sized rooms, comfy beds and innovative design - it 

just had it all. Alongside the delicious breakfast and the exquisite dinners I had with 

my fellow blogger Julia from N93 and the people from Stylebook, Hürriyet and 

Boomads, it was definitely one of the highlight that made my time in Istanbul so unique.

Here are some of my photographic views I have collected for you, hope you enjoy them! 

I don't know what is about urban rooftop pools that gets me, whether it's the ability to see the 

stunning city skyline or the fact that having a pool on a roof in downtown is just a very cool 

thing. Anyway, the feeling is unforgettable, especially when the pool runs right up against the edge

 of the building, separating you from the downtown by a wall of glass, and it feels like you might just 

swim over the streets. But visiting the rooftop of the Marmara Pera Hotel wasn't just about going for 

a relaxing swim, it literally gave me the most stunning view of the city, which is definitely the most 

precious memory I have of this trip. Thanks again Stylebook Blogstars for this incredible opportunity!
