For completion soon after the opening, the vast facility includes an indoor swimming pool, alchemy bar, a fitness centre and organic herb garden.

Six Senses Kocataş Mansions is a tribute to history and culture. The restored main buildings incorporate historic architectural features and artifacts from the site’s former 19th century Kocataş Mansions, which was devastated in a fire years ago, paying  homage to its original footprint and layouts.

Six Senses Kocataş Mansions was mindfully designed to preserve the quality and character of the former 19th century Kocataş Mansions while at the same time, giving the modern touches and every detail. The interior design of the resort amuses its visitors with absolute craftsmanship in its details and FFE selections offering an unforgettable Six Senses’ emotional hospitality.

The architecture of Six Senses Kocataş Mansions is maintained to homogenise with its surrounding buildings. Situating by the Bosphorus, the hotel maximises the view of this natural beauty and historical significance into the hotel. Guest rooms facing the Bosphorus allow full view of the waterway though its large windows to complement the interior.
