The residence takes its name from its last owner, Kıbrıslı Emin Paşa, who had been both chief admiral and grand vizier. “Kıbrıslı” means from Cyprus in Turkish.

Among its famous, former visitors are Pierre Loti, Claude Farrare and Empress Eugenie. It was divided into a haremlik (place for family) and selamlık (place for guests), however today only the latter portion survives.
