Abelia x Diego Guerrero

Abelia x Diego Guerrero occupies a dining room inside The Peninsula Istanbul along Kemankeş Karamustafa Paşa in Beyoğlu, where the hotel’s waterfront edge meets the working streets of Karaköy and the mouth of the Golden Horn.

The collaboration carries Spanish-Mediterranean classical flavors into a contemporary hotel kitchen, framed by the Peninsula’s formal service rather than a standalone street storefront. The room reads as a deliberate import: precise plating, a quieter tempo than the surrounding docks, and a menu that leans on olive oil, seafood, and slow-built sauces instead of local meyhane shorthand.

Oggusto filed the opening on its new-places index, and the Instagram handle thepeninsulaistanbulhotel is the live camera for hours and seatings. The room is why you go, and the street is why it feels like Istanbul.
