Mikla

Overview

Urban, sleek and stylish rooftop, which has been on The Worlds 50 Best Restaurant list since 2015.

The rooftop terrace Mikla at the four star Marmara Pera Hotel has pretty much everything one could ask for. Rooftop pool, rooftop bar, rooftop restaurant and a stunning view over Istanbul in every direction.

Most famous is probably the restaurant part of Mikla, listed in “The World's 50 Best Restaurants” every year from 2015 to 2022, and awarded with a Michelin star in both 2023, 2024 & 2025. So expect creative and modern Turkish food at the very highest class, with the visionary ‘New Anatolian Kitchen’. The food can be enjoyed inside the stylish dining room or, even better, out on the open-air terrace.

Make reservations in advance to be guaranteed to get a table at one of the best rooftop restaurants in Istanbul.

For those not in the mood for a high-end dinner, the Mikla rooftop bar offers great cocktails and mellow DJ tunes in a very stylish and minimalistic lounge setting. With mostly standing tables, it is a perfect spot for pre-dinner cocktails.

Expect a nice and vibrant atmosphere, both at the rooftop bar and in the restaurant.

Next to the rooftop bar and restaurant you find the main reason to book your stay at the Marmara Pera Hotel: the fantastic rooftop pool. Only available to guests at the hotel, complete with comfy sun loungers and large lounge sofas, it is the perfect spot for a relaxing day gasping out over the skyline and the beautiful Bosporus.
