Apartment vacation rentals in İstanbul

One of the nicest and most cultivated airbnbs I’ve stayed in. Great location in a sick area and a beautiful view. Walking distance to great food and history

We were guests in this exceptional apartment for a week and felt very, very comfortable there. The location is centrally located in the immediate vicinity of the Galata Tower and offers fantastic views of the city, both during the day and at night. A big thank you to Neriman for the taxi arrangements for our arrival and departure, as well as the restaurant tips! Important to know: the apartment is on the 5th floor of a historic house. There is no elevator there, which was not a problem for us. We will be happy to come back!

Naz was an exceptional host—consistently attentive, accommodating with scheduling, and generous in offering thoughtful suggestions.. The apartment was exactly as depicted in the photos—truly wonderful. It was tastefully decorated in a classic style, with meticulous attention to detail, and was impeccably clean and well-organized. Everything one might need was readily available. The location was perfect—beyond perfect, in fact. We absolutely loved Istanbul and sincerely hope to return soon. Thank you !!

I’ve rented many Airbnb homes over the years, both in Turkey and abroad, but I can confidently say that this was by far the best place I’ve ever stayed in. Everything was absolutely perfect and thoughtfully prepared for a comfortable stay. The location is amazing — right in the heart of Kadıköy, close to everything you might need. The check-in process was seamless, thanks to the host’s very clear and detailed instructions. The cleanliness was impeccable. Towels, bed linens, and pillowcases were fresh, clean, and smelled great. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could possibly need — from pots and pans to plates, glasses, and utensils — all of excellent quality. I truly felt at home. The host has thought of every little detail to ensure the comfort and convenience of their guests. Hosts like this are rare to find. I honestly questioned why I had been staying in hotels during all my previous visits to Kadıköy. From now on, this will be my first choice without a doubt.

Such a fantastic place to stay in Istanbul! Walkable to so many places, great street with many little shops and restaurants. The view is unmatched! Exactly how it looks in photos and even better! The host is very responsive and proactive. Highly recommend. I would stay again when I am back.

Great appartement and view

Stunning world class view and amazing location in a neighborhood full of local, restaurants, shops. Close to tram ad ferries to explore more widely -- though difficult to leave the rooftop deck and views every day. Sara was responsible e, kind, helpful. MUCH better than even the best hotel.

Great place, great sorroundings. Lots of places to eat. Great view

Hassan's place was great and perfect for our needs. The communication was very smooth from booking until check-out. The staff is very helpful with anything you need. Also, they were flexible with the check-in and check-out times. We will book again if given the chance.

Everything is this apartment is just perfect! Let's start with the amazing view from your living room with french windows. There are 4 bedrooms with comfortable mattresses and 4 baths, so it's convenient for all the guests. There is everything inside for your stay. Fast wifi network that is very rare in Istanbul. The place was very clean and worm when we get inside. Host was friendly and help us with free parking for our cars and overall stay. So the conclusion is that this was one of the best airbnb's that we've stay in Istanbul. Highly recommend!

My family and I enjoyed our stay at Ali’s place. It was very convenient to use both apartments and it felt like being together at home. The location is excellent, just around the corner of Istiklal street, a few minutes away from the famous Galata tower, its a great strategic location for a few nice neighbourhoods as well. The view from the roof top appartement is beautiful. Except for Saturday night it was very quiet. Overall it was a great stay.

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!

It is a great location and close to site seeing, wonderful shopping and restaurants.

Very friendly staff they helped us with early check-in , spacious one bedroom in a very nice area will definitely come back

ideal location, easy check-in at an early hour, value for money. I really enjoyed my time here.

I contemplated to book because we came as a family 2 adults +1 teen & a kid so size is somewhat matter. Turned out I made a perfect choice ❤️. Yes, it doesn't have a living room, but the main room is properly sized and super comfy (not to mention the beautiful chandelier!). Location wise is the best to explore Galata area, Taksim, old city, all within walking distance (w/ so much to see & eat haha). I recommend Adiguzel 1 minute walk, owned by a very kind gentleman. They serves delicious turkish dishes. Weather was wet & cold during our stay, coming home after a cold day outside was such a relief. I can see that Zeynep put so much effort when renovating the unit. Full marble bathroom with natural olive based soap & shampoo. Pristine clean kitchen w/ every basic thing needed for the stay. There's a beautiful terrace on the 4th fl overlooking Golden Horn & old city. We arrived early in the morning. She let us check in early with no add cost. Thx so much! Highly recommend!

Amazing experience. clean apartment. views of Bosphorous, Hagia Sofia and Blue Mosque. 100 meters from Galata Tower on same level ground. Friendly host. well furnished kitchen. 3 bedroom can accommodate 6 easily. decent size TV lounge. separate dinning room with 6 chairs next to kitchen. 10 min walk to tram station T1 line Karakoy stop. 10 minutes to metro train line Sishane stop. Would love to stay again whenever visited. having said all above, few things to remember for travellers. Apartment is on 3rd floor, 60 steps and no lift. Apartment is next to Galata and whole area is a hill. 10 min walk to tran stop is downhill with stone paved street. easy to go down but could be challenging if you are exhausted on the way back or travelling with prams, little kids or elderly. There is no option to drop off luggage early or leave at premises after check out. Owner suggests leaving luggage at nearby coffee shop after eating from there. we left our luggage at the entrance lobby at our risk.

A great place. Located very close to all of the important attractions in Istanbul with a great view of the bay.

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!

Great place with good wifi for working. The adjacent bakery can make early morning sounds that can be disruptive. Good location close to services.

I loved the neighborhood very local close to many attractions! pleasant stay. Remind its a wood house so you have some noises but nothing too bad. I loved there's Netflix and it's so pleasant to be chilling like at home!

We had a great time in özlems place she was very kind and helpful everything was nearby specially the shop we could buy water only ten meters from the house highly recommend you özlems place.

Dear Hayri, Handan and Sena, This is really a superb place to stay in Istanbul: your apartment and the area around! It is on the Asian side of the city, where there is not so much mass tourism like in other parts. The neighbourhood is lively and nice, with many coffee-shops and little shops to explore, but also relaxing. The harbour and the bus station are very close to the apartment, so it is really easy and quick to get to the well-known sights. The apartment is wonderful and tastefully furnished, with good equipment, we did not miss a single bit. There is plenty of room, and it is quiet, on the top floor of a renovated old house. You as hosts are great, very friendly and responding so fast and helpful in every aspect. Thanks for all this. For sure, this is a place to come back. All the best, Georg and Regina

Great place for a solo traveler or duo as well as an extended stay! Spent one month here and felt right at home with everything I needed. 10-15 minute walk to Taksim Square, Istiklal Street. Lots of grocery places nearby. Pretty quiet despite being close to such a busy area! The host was super kind and helpful.
