Istanbul's famous Tarabya Hotel is gearing up to open its doors to
customers in July. The historic hotel, which was bought by Bayraktar
Holding for $145.3 million in 2006 and renovated with a $350 million
investment, is being reborn. The hotel is being advertised in the
Gulf countries first with the slogan "the legend returns."
The hotel will begin to train its new staff in June and is expected
to open in July. One of the new staff members the hotel is looking
for is an Indian chef.
The hotel's original owners were the Armenian Tokatlıyan family,
who migrated to Istanbul in 1883. The hotel soon became an Istanbul
landmark and was an important meeting point for people who wanted to
have a meal, meet for coffee or hold weddings and parties. In short,
the hotel was a status symbol.
The Tarabya Hotel is located right on the Bosphorus in Istanbul's
Tarabya neighborhood on the European side of the city.
