The Bentley Hotel, a member of the Design Hotel group is situated in the trendy Nisantasi area of Harbiye and has rapidly become a destination not only for international travellers but also for the locals who enjoy a night out in its restaurant and club. Designed in 2003 by Milanese architect, Piero Lissoni, it has recently undergone an interior refurbishment by Lissoni and Nicoletta Canesi to revitalise the east/west identity of the hotel on the eve of its 10th anniversary.
The basic pastel colour scheme has been adhered to, its modern sleek lines of Italian design always keeping in mind the eastern heritage of its location with bold touches such as the turquoise velvet chairs in the lounge alongside simple Scandinavian tables by Finnish designer Eero Saarinen. A white circular staircase leads to the upper levels where the 40 rooms and 10 suites provide the best in stylish comfort while offering the opportunity for guests to enjoy views of the city skyline through picture windows.
A cool stylish Italian contemporary classic design fused with an exotic touch, a perfect aesthetic blend for a hotel in this city of contrasts and diverse cultural lifestyles.
