The Marmara Group

The Marmara Group, established in 1984, has become a distinguished name in the hospitality industry, renowned for its blend of Turkish heritage and modern luxury. The group's flagship property, The Marmara Taksim, opened in 1984 in Istanbul's iconic Taksim Square, setting a precedent for excellence in service and accommodations. Over the years, The Marmara Group expanded its portfolio to include properties in key Turkish cities such as Bodrum and Antalya, each reflecting the unique cultural and historical essence of its location. In 1998, The Marmara Group extended its reach internationally with the opening of The Marmara Manhattan in New York City, marking the group's commitment to bringing Turkish hospitality to a global audience. This move was further solidified in 2015 with the opening of The Marmara Park Avenue, offering guests a fusion of cultural authenticity and contemporary elegance. The Marmara Park Avenue occupies a historic 21-story building dating back to 1927, thoughtfully redesigned to provide a sophisticated urban retreat. The Marmara Group's dedication to preserving cultural heritage is exemplified by the restoration of the Esma Sultan Mansion, a 19th-century Ottoman palace transformed into a premier event venue on the Bosphorus shores. This commitment continued with the 2023 reopening of the Çinili Hamam Zeyrek, a 16th-century bathhouse meticulously restored to offer authentic cultural experiences.
