"There, God and human beings, nature and art, together created a spectacular place on the earth".

This is how Istanbul has been described in world literature.

Hotel Pierre Loti, in Sultanahmet, welcomes its guests through its open doors with a flourish of reknowned Turkish hospitality in the heart of a city where east and west collide. This unique and charming city, admired by all who visit her and indeed by the rest of the world, has been the starting point of many important historical events and the very cradle of civilisations. Stretching across two continents divided by the mighty Bosphorus river, Istanbul unites a plethora of differing cultures, religions and ethnicities whilst retaining the ruins and traces of past empires in its colourful streets. All this exists peacefully and untouched amidst a growing modernity.

Our grandiose boutique hotel in the "Special Class" service category was first restored in the mid-nineties with a renewal in two thousand and seven. The outer appearance, original bay windows and traditional Turkish style properties of the building have been carefully preserved and seamlessly combined with modern and comfortable decoration. This special aspect of the building is reflected in the 36 guestrooms to allow guests to experience true authenticity in this magical city.
