Historical background

The original building on the site was constructed at the end of the 19th century by Italian Ambassador Baron Alberto Blanc as an embassy building. The mansion was later acquired by Abdülhamid II and given to Foreign Affairs Minister Tevfik Pasha, who transformed it into the Mansion of External Affairs.

Tevfik Pasha's Swedish wife, Elisabeth Tschumi, suggested converting the mansion into a hotel. The property was initially called Miramare before becoming the renowned Park Hotel under the management of Aram Hıdır. The Park Hotel operated until 1979 and hosted notable guests including Atatürk in the 1930s. Atatürk also hosted King Edward VIII for a state dinner at the property. Turkish Prime Minister Adnan Menderes reserved the entire first floor during his stays.

Each floor is named after one of the Ottoman Sultanas who significantly impacted Ottoman history.
