Positioned as the second outpost of The Marmara group's collection around Taksim Square, The Marmara Pera exudes a distinctive, off-the-beaten vibe. Set against the backdrop of the Old City, the hotel captures breathtaking sunsets over the Golden Horn. Boasting 205 rooms and suites adorned with a modern and youthful design, The Marmara Pera offers a refreshing escape at relatively reasonable prices, ensuring exceptional value for its guests. The hotel rooftop disguises Mikla, the temple of the New Anatolian Cuisine helmed by local chef Mehmet Gürs, continuously honoured by the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list.
TIME OUT TIP: For culinary enthusiasts, a stroll along Asmalımescit Street, one of the city's liveliest spots, unveils a tapestry of local meyhanes, each offering an exquisite array of Turkish mezes to be savoured alongside rakı, the quintessential local anise liqueur.
