The Yali was thought to be built in late 18th century by a pasha. Then, it passed in title and was used as house by Kececizade Fuat Pasha, II.Abdulaziz’s grand vizier, for a long time. After Kececizade Fuat Pasha, yali was continued to be used as house for some more time. It was restored in republican era and started to be used as hotel and guesthouse in 1930s.

Kececizade Fuat Pasha Yali, one of the most beautiful waterfront houses in Bosphorus, has been serving since 1991 with the name of Fuat Pasha Hotel.

After having been a quiet witness of Istanbul ’s history for two centuries, Kececizade Fuat Pasha Yali is now combining Ottoman architecture and modern hotel management, to put this combination into service of tourism.
