Orient Bar

Piano, jazz and lounge selections accompany the historic bar. Live performances take place on some Fridays; jazz or piano is scheduled on selected days, not every night.

Dim, refined and nostalgic. Conversation and a sense of the venue's history matter more than high-energy nightlife.

Classic cocktails, wine and desserts in the tradition of an old Istanbul hotel bar.

Hotel guests, international visitors, couples and adults looking for a traditional bar atmosphere.

Simple, elegant evening dress suits.

Orient Bar offers visitors a taste of a bygone era through the historic ambiance of the Pera Palace, its nostalgic décor, and a tranquil terrace. The afternoon tea, desserts, cocktails, pizza, and live music are generally well-liked. In most reviews, the staff is described as polite, efficient, and helpful when it comes to special occasions. Although prices are above the city average, the majority of guests find them commensurate with the hotel's atmosphere and level of service. The interior can feel gloomy in winter, and the romantic ambiance is occasionally disrupted by live music and noise from other patrons. A small number of reviews mention a decline in the quality of the welcome and attentiveness of the waitstaff during recent visits. Overall, the experience is positive, with a focus on history and atmosphere.
