			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Four Seasons</strong> Hotel Istanbul at Sultanahmet. </p>
<p>Created from a century-old neoclassic Turkish prison in the core of this fabled city – steps from the Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace. Just 65 guest rooms and suites frame an open courtyard, for an atmosphere of personal attention and ease unprecedented in Istanbul.</p>
<p>Seasons Restaurant features a glass-enclosed courtyard and an outdoor terrace with a seating capacity for 55 people in winter and 95 people in summer. </p>
<p>The elegant and refined decor combines Turkish artwork and a more contemporary style. This restaurant also has a beautifully landscaped garden that creates a peaceful oasis in the middle of Istanbul.</p>
