ERESIN CROWN HOTEL
now begins a completely new ERA in the empire's
city of Istanbul and Tourism of Turkey on the
GREAT PALACE premises at Sultanahmet, known
as the historical and touristic part of Istanbul.
49 various historical art pieces from the Roman,
Hellenistic and Byzantine time including a cistern
and a mosaic were found during the construction
phase of the hotel " aged from 2. - 3. B.C. to
5. - 6. A. D. centuries ".
Obtaining the unique official permit from the
authorities to keep these historical pieces found
under the ground of the hotel, we displayed
them in the same premise, which happens to be
for the first time in the archaeological history
in Turkey, encouraged the investors to build up
the first " Boutique Museum Hotel " in the country
and may be even in the whole world.
Possessing such valuable and extraordinary heritage
pieces gave the project planners and the Archaeologists
of the Archaeological Museum of Istanbul the enthusiasm
to display them in such a professional manner
so that anyone could easily feel at home in their
own private environment.
In addition to the historical art collection,
the ERESIN CROWN HOTEL investors also decided
to display a very special picture gallery of Byzantine'
s and Ottoman' s life style impressions
produced by Mr. Gültekin Çizgen, Turkey'
s most renowned demonstrator in this field.
