Mövenpick Hotel Istanbul Golden Horn, Turkey, will open on 31 March. The hotel is sited 10 minutes from the Old City’s historic sights and 10 minutes from the Haliç Congress Centre, enabling it to target both business and leisure guests.
The 136-key property, owned by Istanbul-based Akgel Real Estate Investment, has been designed by Loft Architects - with interiors by Sinan Kafadar from the Metex Design Group - to evoke Greek, Roman Byzantine and Ottoman history through naval motifs. Compass designs, interlinking chains and wave wood panelling decorate the interior space within the hotel.
In addition to two dining venues, six meeting rooms and the 380sq m (4,090sq ft) Golden Horn Ballroom, the hotel houses a Serenity Wellness Centre – which includes a fitness centre, Turkish hammam, saunas, steamroom, relaxation zone and massage rooms.
This hotel is the second Mövenpick in Istanbul and the fourth in Turkey – with properties in
Ankara and the port city of Izmir.
