Rixos Tersane Istanbul opens to guests

Every detail of Rixos Tersane Istanbul’s design and architecture has been meticulously considered. Drawing inspiration from the district’s history as an Ottoman naval shipyard, interior decoration restores 600 years of cultural and industrial heritage to create a modern living space for locals and visitors of Istanbul. Its architecture, in harmony with the region’s historical texture, proximity to the city centre, and the views surrounding the historic peninsula will make it a major attraction for local and international tourists. Additionally, Rixos Tersane Istanbul will be easily accessible by sea.

The Golden Horn, a symbol of abundance and prosperity since the Byzantine era, served as an excellent natural harbour that made Istanbul a key trade centre in the Mediterranean and Near East during the Middle Ages. Inspired by its location, Rixos Tersane Istanbul has curated a special art collection under the theme of cultural sustainability. This collection will feature contemporary artworks by both local and international artists, accompanied by a catalogue and digital archive. Opening in this unique area, the hotel plays a vital role in reviving and passing down this deep-rooted cultural heritage to future generations.
