In 2015, his book The Silk Roads: A New History of the World was published. Writing in the Telegraph, Bettany Hughes praised it as a "charismatic and essential book", while Anthony Sattin, writing in The Guardian, called it "ambitious" and "full of insight but let down by factual errors". Frankopan's follow-up book, The New Silk Roads: The Present and Future of the World (Bloomsbury Publishing), was published in 2018.

He has served as president of the Croatian Cricket Federation and has played for the Croatian national team. In 2015, he said "That’s the achievement I’m proudest of – playing cricket for my country." He also plays for the Authors XI cricket team with other British writers and contributed a chapter to the book that team members collectively wrote about their first season playing together, The Authors XI: A Season of English Cricket from Hackney to Hambledon (2013).

Frankopan's first book of history, The First Crusade: The Call from the East, was published in 2012. The book received a rare five-star review from Nicholas Shakespeare in The Telegraph. He called it a "persuasive and bracing work" and said "Peter Frankopan is not yet well known, but he deserves to be."

In 2002, Frankopan and his wife Jessica opened Cowley Manor, a boutique hotel and spa on a historic estate in the Cotswolds. They have since expanded their hotel chain, which they named A Curious Group of Hotels, to include the Portobello Hotel in London, Canal House in Amsterdam and L'Hotel Paris in Paris. The restaurant in L'Hotel Paris has been awarded a Michelin star.
