Modern&Historical 2BR Apartment with AC in Galata
My mom and I truly enjoyed staying at İnci’s place - it is exactly as advertised! The building is a stunning walk up right near Galata Tower. Everything you could ever want is within walking distance, including a supermarket called SHOW. We loved checking out all of the local cafes, boutiques and art galleries in the area. The view from the living room / kitchen is so beautiful and was a great way to start each day in Istanbul. I couldn’t recommend this Airbnb enough and hope to come back again one day!

Very good studio in a good location, everything is sparkling clean and brand new. The place had just been renovated a month ago. Internet was very stable aswell. Host is very friendly and responsive. Highly recommend!

2+1 luxury aparment no:2
We were very happy with the apartment. It was very clean and very big, perfect for 5 people. The owner of the apartment was also very friendly and accommodating. He sent us all the necessary information in good time and was always available. If you had any questions you could always write to him and he helped you. He also gave us lots of helpful tips on how best to get around and what was nearby. We can only recommend the apartment 👍🏻 Thank you very much

2+1 Sea view and Private Garden in Old City
What an adventure to stay in such a piece of history! Characterful, clean place decorated to care, with 2 small bedrooms, 3 single beds, lounge, basic kitchen and terrace- all tucked well away from everything but still close to everything. Ali is truly a gem, super communicative and ultra helpful with anything we might need. A really sweet human who goes out of his way to make sure you’re happy. A fabulous place for a couple days to tour the wonders of Sultanahmet. Bet it’s even better is summer!

Rose Point Residence 1+1 New Building
It was a great stay, everything was new and spotless as in the photo. A caring host has an address where I will stay again.

Flat in the center of Cihangir 3
This is my 3 time staying at Havyar”s. Everytime I come to Istanbul I stay at Havyars. Very cozy and clean place. The location is perfect. The host is always pleasant. I highly recommend the Havyar”s place.

İSTANBUL TOWN CİTY APARTMENT

House rentals in İstanbul

A Historical House in Sultanahmet area
We liked the house. It is convenient for family living. There are many attractions nearby - we walked all day around the historical part of the area. Opposite the house there is a restaurant with good traditional cuisine. Wahid is a very nice person. Thank you for your hospitality!

Galata Duplex House With Terrace For Large Groups
Apartments are beautiful, large, and in a great location - we really loved our stay and would absolutely recommend this place to friends! Things to know: the two floors are totally separate apartments; they are pretty anonymous rental flats in terms of what to expect in the kitchen; we experienced some cultural differences around checkout and other communication, but no major issues; the offered airport pickup required that we wait around the airport for about 40 minutes but was otherwise easy

Beautifully Renovated House w 3 B-rooms @ Cihangir
The property is in a very good location and is very clean. The host is available any time and very cooperative. We are very satisfied and happy to come back.

Bosphorus Dream in the heart of Istanbul
A special place, a nice and interactive host, the house is a guest, a tidy, and a special location of the house with a very nice view in the hall that makes you sit in the house and not get out of it Also services and restaurants are very close by the house Masjid and groceries Only one challenge in the house for those with an older age is to climb stairs to the second floor

Whole Flat -Beautiful Seaview, 2min to Centre
You chose it to spend the weekend, it was one of the best weekends I've had thanks to this house. The house is incredibly peaceful, every detail is incredibly beautiful. Extremely clean. It was incredibly enjoyable to sit on the balcony against the sea view. Ms. Burcu was also very sweet, she took care of us from start to finish. Luna, her cat, was just as sweet, adding color to our weekend. Everything was a great experience.
Private Garden Triplex in Center
Tao’s home is a charming entire house with a private entrance, nestled in a vibrant neighborhood. If you're a fan of Orhan Pamuk's novels, you'll recognize the area, and you'll be pleased to know that the Museum of Innocence actually exists and is located nearby. The house itself is full of character and unique details. The kitchen is well-equipped and had everything we needed traveling with a young child. There are three floors to navigate: the kitchen, dining area, and a shower are located on the ground floor, while the entrance, two bedrooms and a toilet are on the first floor. The second floor features the third bedroom with its own small kitchenette and bathroom. Additionally, the entrance has a few steps as well. Tao is a very sweet, friendly and thoughtful host, and we felt genuinely cared for throughout our visit. Communication was seamless, and he provided us with excellent recommendations for local restaurants that we thoroughly enjoyed.

Duplex villa with Bosphorus view (no smoking)
Peaceful and comfortable accommodation with amazing views and all the creature comforts. An excellent base for exploring Istanbul by ferry or bus, with nice cafes nearby. Can recommend using a delivery service (we used Getir) to get groceries in.

Wooden Mansion at Bosphorus neighborhood
Wonderful experience. Ortakoy is a traditional neighborhood . The area has plenty of cafes and restaurants . Beautiful house

Stylish Bungalow Villa In City
Mr. Akın was very helpful with everything. We felt she was trying to make us comfortable at home. The house was a very warm environment, it was enjoyable. The house looks like it sleeps 9, but it's a small L armchair where two people will sleep. It wasn't a problem for us, but it should be considered.

& 2+1 Magnificent Apartment in Taksim Cihangir
Very well located apartment, between Taksim Square and the Bosphorus. It's really clean, it has everything you need for cooking. There are restaurants all over the neighborhood and a small supermarket. Far from the hustle and bustle, it allows you to rest in peace after a day of walking. The tram, buses and metro are a 10/15 minute walk away. You can get everywhere on foot, just bring good walking shoes! Hassan is responsive, available and does everything to make our stay easy and enjoyable. Very friendly, he answered all our questions, without ever getting annoyed! See you soon in Chaa Allah!

Luxury Life Suites

1+1 with a view of the site
Mr. Mohammed was very helpful during my stay. He was a very helpful host.

historical renovated flat in the heart of Beyoğlu
We felt very comfortable at the place. The apartment was a 5-minute walk from Taksim Square. The location is in a densely populated residential area in Beyoglu. The apartment was clean and had plenty of space. The owner Rayan was accessible throughout and offered his help at all times. We felt at home and always comfortable. A very bright and vacation-friendly apartment. Thanks, Rayan
