Stay at The Peninsula Istanbul and you can walk to this beautiful historical district!

The Peninsula Istanbul, which opened in February 2023, is the first branch of the Peninsula Hotels Group in Türkiye. Located in the Karaköy district on the western bank of the Bosphorus, the hotel consists of four restored century-old buildings, three of which were Ottoman-era post offices and customs offices. The hotel has more than one hundred rooms and suites, most of which have terraces with views of the strait. The architectural design retains the neoclassical facade while incorporating modern Turkish art decorations into the interior. The hotel has several restaurants and bars, including a terrace restaurant and a traditional Turkish tea house, as well as a 25-meter indoor swimming pool, a spa and fitness facilities. The service continues the characteristics of the Peninsula brand and provides customized city experience projects, such as private yacht strait cruises. As one of the most popular luxury hotels in Istanbul in recent years, its positioning takes into account both cultural immersion and high-end vacation experience, and its room rates are in the first tier among local hotels. The hotel is strategically located within walking distance of the popular attraction Galata Tower. This 14th-century Genoese stone tower is a classic viewing point overlooking the Golden Horn and the old town. The surrounding Beyoglu neighborhood is full of vitality. The retro trams on Istiklal Avenue, art galleries converted from 19th-century buildings, boutiques and cafes are lined up one after another, and there are often street performances in the evening. It is an ideal area to experience Istanbul’s modern literary and artistic atmosphere.
