Fer Hotel

Our Story

FER, means “radiant brightness” in the native tongue, true to its name, is a properly lit hotel. The Turkish sun finds its way indoors through large windows, a sky-lit atrium, and a high-design mix of light fixtures. All of this complements a neutral, calming color palette: the decor itself is 50 shades of brown, which lets the light, well, shine. Our 56-room hotel is on the small size, but it’s not so small that you’ll lack anonymity if you want it. Service is up to you, too: our staff takes an approach to hospitality depending on the wants and needs of each guest. (Incidentally, there are 56 rooms for a reason. It’s a nod to the 55 gates of Istanbul, the entrances carved into the city walls, circa 400 A.D. — FER thinks of itself as the 56th gate to the city.)

FER’s location, on the European side of the city, is very much a gateway to all the places you’ll want to visit during your visit. The famous Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia are both a scenic 10-minute walk east through the heart of historic Istanbul. The Grand Bazaar is a 5-minute walk in the opposite direction. But if you just want to gaze upon the city from a good perch, stop by FER’s rooftop restaurant — be sure to snag a table outside on the terrace.
