If you live in northern climes, I think we can all agree that this dreary snowy and rainy weather is getting old. Fast. So let's escape, at least virtually, to exotic Istanbul. In college I studied antiquity and medieval history so I've always wanted to visit the golden city of Byzantium. The House Hotel on the shores of the Bosphorus is the place to stay. Renovated by the Autoban design group, this historic 19th century building has been transformed into a luxury boutique hotel that combines contemporary design with historic charm.
Can you even handle this room? I love, love, love the ornate crown moulding, paneling and ceiling medallions especially paired with those awesome modern light fixture. And that headboard...
