Cisterna Brasserie
Restaurant · inside Royan Hotel Hagia Sophia
Inside Royan Hotel Hagia Sophia, Turkish and international dishes among the stone walls of an 8th-century Byzantine cistern.
Cistern, garden and terrace
We serve our dishes beside the stone walls of the Byzantine cistern found during construction. Guests who are not staying at the hotel are welcome for lunch and dinner, and you can also drop in just to see the cistern. The murals in the garden are the work of the İzmir painter Necmi Bey.
There are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options; allergen information is on the menu. We have a children’s menu and high chairs. The Cisterna Roof terrace looks out over Topkapı Palace and the Sea of Marmara; it is closed from November to April and reopens in April.
