Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Room

The Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Room sits naturally within the history of Pera Palace. In Istanbul, in the Beyoğlu district, this hotel opened in 1892 for travelers arriving on the Orient Express. Staying here means choosing a room inside a building conceived from the start for travel, arrival, and the rhythm of a grand hotel.

What matters in this room is as much its place within the house as its name. Pera Palace keeps a rare scale with 115 rooms, which gives the stay clear bearings. You move from the Kubbeli Salon for tea to the Orient Bar later in the evening, then return to your room in an address where history still shapes the way the hotel is lived. The Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Room is best understood as part of that whole: Beyoğlu at the doorstep, Istanbul all around, and inside, the hushed circulation of a hotel that has known its role since the late nineteenth century.
