Top 10 Lodges in Istanbul, Turkey

June 9, 2023 Roseanne Arnett

A social and geographic confluence where East and West, North and South, religious and secular, ancient and modern all converge in kaleidoscopic display, Istanbul is as vibrant an urban destination as you’ll ever visit on earth. Whatever strikes your fancy, chances are it’s done with vigor in this mega city that’s too expansive – and cultured – to settle upon only one continent to call its home.

Location doesn't feel Safe

To stay ok but shouldn't expect much comfort from this place (Very Small space for accommodation) especially when taking a walk around doesn't feel so safe. On my next visit i will look for better location in Istanbul for sure.

What an absolute gem! Cozy boutique hotel right in the heart of Ortakoy, with so much life in this area it could be noisy for some but for those that enjoy the energy of the area this is for you. Rooms are spacious and much bigger than most regular hotels around Istanbul. Filled with everything you could need for a 1 week stay including kitchenette, proper sized mini fridge and even a washing machine. Although limited with rooms, the staff speak good English and always helpful with tips on where to exchange, shop, grab a bit and more. Thank you!

We spent 2 nights in this hotel,location was great ,just 5 minutes walking to subway and taksim square.(except the sloping alley which could be a problem in snowy days.) Room was spacious and quiet with clean beds. Bathroom was old ,needed to be renewed. Staff were very helpful and polite. Overall it was value for money.

Confort at it's best...

Nice decoration, but you must not look at the details. The beds and sheets are very comfortable. Wi-fi is ok. The breakfast is the only point that I think need to ben improved. However, you won't leave the hotel hungry.

Wie zuhause!! The hotel is in a perfect location. The rooms are very cute, extremely clean and much nicer than the photos on the homepage suggest. We were thrilled with our penthouse. Even the welcome at the hotel was very, very nice and the welcome at the room unique. But the best thing about the hotel are undoubtedly, the always eager always helpful, and extremely friendly staff. If we come to Istanbul again, then we will certainly come back to the hotel.

Scammers, avoid like the plague!!!!

Reviewed By 820julesr

Scammers, avoid like the plague! We booked in advance through booking.com and got a good deal. The day before we were flying to Turkey they marked my mastercard as invalid saying that they tried 3 times but they couldn't process the payment but when I checked with my bank I discovered they never even attempted to take the money. The next day they cancelled our reservation (3 hrs before our flight) using the unvalid card as an excuse. What happened in reality is that they overbooked the property and decided to cancel whoever got a better deal. We had to rebook somewhere else last minute for more money and it was such a stressful experience just 3 hrs before our long awaited holiday (of course with the other hotel my card worked rightaway as it had for 4 years) Save yourself all the last minute hassle and don't give money to these thieves

Great Trip to Istanbul

Reviewed By masspector2017

We stayed at this hotel for 7 nights in November 2020. We booked their best room which was on the top floor with a small balcony. The view is not the best as it looks over a freeway and a trainway but it was nice to have a small balcony to enjoy and the water views were great. The room was nice but a little overcrowded with furniture. Bathroom was ok with plenty of hot water. A nice touch is they include bottled water for free in your in room mini fridge. Also include complimentary self serve tea and kettle. Stairs are a little narrow and no lift. No issues with noise. You can hear the cars on the freeway but not too bad. Neighborhood is ok. Nothing fancy but we felt safe. A few small restaurants and shops close by. Be aware that to get to the tourist area we recommend checking your map and taking the back way to the blue mosque area. It takes a little longer but is less hilly and passes most of the restaurants and shops in the area. A nice budget hotel. No major issues to report.
