EDITOR'S REVIEW

Get to know the venue before you go

Loti Roof Lounge is a rooftop restaurant in Sultanahmet combining views of the historic peninsula and the Sea of Marmara with Turkish and international cuisine, cocktails and terrace service.

Music & programme

Background music supports conversation during lunch, sunset and dinner. Follow the venue's current announcements for any special music or event program.

Atmosphere

The uninterrupted 360-degree rooftop view takes in the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, the Marmara Sea and the Bosphorus. Wood detailing, plants and soft evening lighting create a romantic setting.

Concept

A view-centered rooftop restaurant and bar, with dining and sightseeing by day followed by cocktails and lounge music in the evening.

Guest profile

Couples, families and Istanbul visitors planning an unhurried meal or drink with views of the historic peninsula.

Dress code

Comfortable but well-chosen city clothes suit the restaurant's historic-peninsula setting.

Inside the Venue

Loti Roof Lounge's round sign points towards a glass-enclosed dining area. Globe-shaped lamps hang above the wooden tables. Flames on the grill and the preparation of meat bring the venue's kitchen activity into view. The bustle of preparation gives this setting character just as much as the dishes arriving at the table.

Customer Review Summary

Reviews of Loti Roof Lounge are largely positive. The view of Istanbul and the sunset, the warm atmosphere, and the ease of access are among the most frequently highlighted features. Visitors find the sushi, steaks, kebabs, and wraps—as well as the cocktails and hookah—to be delicious. Many note that the portions are satisfying, the products are of high quality, and the prices are reasonable for the area. The staff’s friendliness, recommendations, and attentive service are also praised in numerous reviews, with specific employees often mentioned by name. Conversely, one visitor expressed the opinion that foreign customers receive more attention. Overall, the balance of food, service, and scenery makes it a suitable choice for visits by families or couples.

HIGHLIGHTS

Highlights

An exceptional uninterrupted 360-degree view, a rich signature-cocktail bar, well-regarded lamb chops and butter-cooked shrimp, and attentive service.

NOTE

Before your visit

This is a view-facing restaurant and bar rather than a dance club. Prices reflect the tourist area. Hookah is smoked on the terrace; guests sensitive to smoke or odor should request an indoor table.

GETTING THERE

Getting to the venue
