About this listen

the Concierge

Hoş geldiniz!..

the Concierge, ortaokul üçüncü sınıfta okurken, yaz tatilinde, o yılların ilk ve tek beş yıldızlı oteli olan Hilton İstanbul’da ‘Pageboy’ olarak çalışmaya başlayan Adnan Öner’in 48 yıllık otelcilik kariyerinin bir kısmını paylaşmaya çalıştığı bir kitap.

Kitapta binlerce insanın hayatına dokunmuş, milyonlarca kişinin sorununa çözüm bulmuş olan Adnan Öner’in misafirlerden gelen değişik taleplere nasıl çözüm bulduğuna ve kariyerindeki acı-tatlı olaylara tanıklık ediyoruz.

Adnan Öner, Concierge departmanına ilgi azalsa da bu bölümün sektördeki önemini, dünyada sektörü bir araya toplayan Les Clefs d’Or’un Türkiye’de nasıl kurulduğunu da anlatıyor.

Ve tabii Beşiktaş aşkını bizlere hatırlatmaktan da vazgeçmeyerek... Hilton İstanbul, Etap İstanbul ve ardından 33 yıllık Swissôtel The Bosphorus, İstanbul kariyerinin en sıcak ve samimi anlatımı...

“Concierge: Oteller ve konuk ağırlanan lüks tesislerde konukların tesis içi ya da dışı fark etmeksizin ihtiyaçlarını karşılayan birim ya da kişi.”

the Concierge

Welcome!

The Concierge offers listeners a glimpse into the extraordinary world of Adnan Öner, who began his journey in hospitality as a young pageboy at Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus Hotel—the city's first and only five-star hotel at the time—while still in middle school. What began as a summer job blossomed into a lifelong passion, culminating in a remarkable 48-year career.

We accompany Öner through moments both tender and trying, as he recounts the countless lives he has touched and the myriad of guest requests—some curious, others challenging—that he met with poise, creativity, and unwavering dedication.

Though the spotlight on the Concierge desk may have dimmed in recent years, Öner reminds us of its vital role in the soul of a hotel. He also shares the story of how Les Clefs d’Or, the prestigious international society of hotel concierges, found its place in Turkey—thanks, in part, to his vision and commitment.

And naturally, he cannot help but weave in his undying devotion to Beşiktaş Football Team...

From Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus Hotel to Etap Istanbul Hotel, and finally, to a 33-year chapter at Swissôtel The Bosphorus, Istanbul—this is a heartfelt and elegant account of a life spent in service, told by someone who has truly mastered the art of hospitality.

“Concierge: The discreet guardian of guest experience—fulfilling needs and wishes, whether within the hotel walls or far beyond them.”
