- The Peninsula Istanbul
Overview
At The Peninsula Hotels, we are known for our luxurious properties, set in some of the most remarkable destinations in the world. We are also known for our inimitable service, delivered by dedicated team members with a passion for their calling and an intimate knowledge of their cities.
Through the Perspectives campaign, we celebrate our people, the personal journeys that led them to The Peninsula, and their bond with the cities where they live and work.
Set along the Bosphorus waterfront in the historic district of Karaköy, The Peninsula Istanbul provides a showcase for both vibrant Turkish culture and superlative hospitality within Galataport, a new waterfront revitalisation project. The hotel is comprised of four exquisite buildings – three of them historic and beautifully restored – and welcomes guests arriving by land or sea.
There is nothing quite like Istanbul. A magnificent blend of East and West, cushioned from one another by a shimmering body of water; an artery of commerce, culture, and convenience. The surrounding city beckons you into its clutches, tantalising every sense, demanding attention, but expecting no reward for being a city of such wonder.
Approach it formally, and Istanbul provides an intensive list of cultural icons to gaze and marvel at. Let yourself be drawn through the streetscape like a leaf in the breeze, and you will find yourself on an adventure, heady and bohemian, charming and mesmerizing. Markets abound, the bazaars invite indulgence, and you are never more than a few steps from a place to pause, sip Turkish coffee, and absorb the dynamic city around you.
