Wed, 02 Feb 2011 14:31:00 +0200

The legendary Pera Palace Hotel reopened its doors in 2010 following a major renovation project. The Pera Palace is the stuff of legends, a name that is synonymous with both Istanbul and luxury. Founded in 1892 in Tepebaşı and opened in 1895, the hotel was established to meet the needs of the passengers on the world-famous Orient Express rail line, which had chosen Istanbul as its last stop in the East.

The impressive building was designed by Levantine architect Alexander Vallaury, an Istanbul resident who drew his inspiration from Istanbul’s position as a bridge between east and west, desgining the hotel in a blend of neo-classical, art nouveau and oriental styles. The Pera Palace was not only the city’s first luxury hotel, it was also the first building in Istanbul apart from the royal palaces to have electricity and running hot water. It also featured the city’s first electrical elevator, a beautiful contraption of cast iron and wood that can still be seen today.

The Pera Palace Hotel bore witness to over 100 years of Istanbul history, as well as countless teas and wild society parties. It was immortalized in Agatha Christie’s “Murder on the Orient Express” the 1934 classic novel that was inspired by the author's stays at the hotel. Restorations of the hotel began in 2008, and the Pera Palace has now reclaimed its position as one of the top hotels in the city. This is the perfect place for history and nostalgia lovers, with the rooms featuring original 19th century fixtures including white Carrara marble and exquisite Murano-glass chandeliers.

The hotel has also been equipped with state-of-the-art technology and amenities to ensure maximum luxury and comfort. This level of quality and nostalgia also extends to the dining options. The Agatha Restaurant serves a combination of French, Italian and Turkish flavors, as it pays tribute to the three major stops on the former Orient Express, - Paris, Venice and Istanbul. The restaurant also offers a monthly "Chef's Degustation Menu" along with the a la carte menu. The Kubbeli Saloon, decorated in a lavish oriental style, has for years been a favorite spot for tea among the Istanbul elite, with live piano music adding to the atmosphere.

Another option for tea or coffee is the Patisserie de Pera, where you can enjoy the famous pastries that include delicious Turkish and French inspired hand-made cakes and homemade chocolates in a nostalgic atmosphere. Finally, if you want to enjoy a drink or cocktail, the Orient Bar has long served as a meeting point for high society. Today, the Pera Palace Hotel remains the place to stay if you are looking for old-world opulence and luxury in a historical setting.
