Rixos Tersane Istanbul Gears Up to Welcome GCC Guests with Tailored Experiences for Spring and Summer Travel Seasons

As the spring and summer travel seasons approach, Rixos Tersane Istanbul is enhancing its offerings to cater to the needs of discerning travelers from the GCC region. In an exclusive interview with GCC Media Group, the Managing Director of Rixos Tersane Istanbul Mr Cetin Pehlivan   shared insights on how the property is positioning itself as a premier destination for GCC families and holidaymakers seeking cultural richness, modern comfort, and exceptional service in the heart of Istanbul.

“GCC countries represent a key market for us,”  the Managing Director emphasized. “Guests from the Gulf value authenticity, comfort, privacy, and exceptional service — all of which align perfectly with the Rixos brand and the unique positioning of Rixos Tersane Istanbul,” he added.

Set against the backdrop of a 600-year-old Ottoman shipyard, the hotel blends historical charm with world-class hospitality. With panoramic views of the Golden Horn and a family-friendly atmosphere, it offers a seamless fusion of heritage and luxury — an ideal match for travelers from the GCC.

In preparation for the high season, the hotel has rolled out a range of enhancements tailored to Gulf travelers. These include Arabic-speaking staff, halal-certified dining options, family-oriented suites, and culturally sensitive concierge services.

Additionally, guests can look forward to exclusive experiences such as private boat tours, access to top cultural events, and bespoke itineraries highlighting Istanbul’s art, gastronomy, and wellness scenes. “Our goal is to make every guest from the Gulf feel not just welcomed, but understood and appreciated,” said the Managing Director

A standout feature at Rixos Tersane Istanbul is its “Discovery Routes” — a complimentary series of curated excursions that invite guests to explore Istanbul’s vibrant history and culture. Highlights include private cruises along the Golden Horn, visits to the Istanbul Modern and the Rahmi M. Koç Museum, and weekly guided tours through the historic neighborhoods of Fener and Balat. For families and couples seeking even more customization, the hotel offers tailored itineraries with special attention to children’s entertainment, culinary adventures, and artistic immersion.

To mark the Eid Al-Adha holiday, Rixos Tersane Istanbul is inviting GCC guests to experience a festive stay like no other. The hotel promises a celebratory atmosphere with curated art experiences, immersive Discovery Routes, and activities for all ages — all set against Istanbul’s breathtaking June backdrop. “Eid at Rixos Tersane Istanbul is more than just a holiday; it’s a celebration of connection and lasting memories,” the Managing Director added.

Strategically located within Tersane Istanbul — one of Türkiye’s most ambitious urban restoration projects — the hotel stands as a symbolic bridge between past and present. Its proximity to ancient landmarks, bustling districts, and tranquil waters makes it a one-of-a-kind urban resort for cultural travelers. With its Islamic heritage, vibrant atmosphere, and seamless blend of modernity and tradition, Istanbul remains a favored destination for Gulf families. Short flight distances, halal-friendly amenities, and privacy-focused hospitality make the city especially appealing for multi-generational travelers.

“At Rixos Tersane Istanbul, we aim to elevate every aspect of our guests’ journey, offering a home away from home with a rich cultural soul,” concluded the Managing Director.
