BnB Hotels in Istanbul

Really beautiful Hotel. Everything was perfect. The staff is also really friendly. I would always come back.

We returned after a year for a longer stay to relive this magical place, with its family history etched in every detail. The house is surrounded by a charming garden, where countless conversations take place over a cup of tea. Sincere appreciation to the owner, who has created an extraordinary place filled with kindness and warmth.

The hotel is a three-storey house, coupled with a cafe outside (where the tastiest breakfast is served (thanks!)). My room was very nice, thought through, I really liked the oldish appearance of the house itself and the design of the room, wooden furniture and huge windows. Since the room was on the first floor and the windows were facing the cafe, it was a little noisy in the evenings, and I needed...

I highly recommend this hotel, it was my favourite stay during my time in Istanbul. The building is so beautiful and peaceful, yet the location is very convenient for assessing Uskudar port and therefore the rest of Istanbul. Vedat, Gulsah and the rest of the team treated me and the other guests as family, and I felt taken take of throughout my stay. They are very accommodating of requests and always...

What a Wonderful host, Gulsar who looked after me. The Hotel is absolutely beautiful and is filled with historical furnishings and kept in a spotless condition. Following checking in and whilst recovering following surgery, to checking out, all staff were very helpful and accommodating and when I was not able to physically get to the beautiful cafe on site, their staff brought the food to me. You won...

We truly enjoyed our stay here. The breakfast was very nicely presented and delicious. The furnishings and decorations were very interesting. The house was very cozy and the bed was very comfortable. It's a historic house that opens up to a lovely garden and a cute little coffee house with indoor and outdoor seating. The grocery store is about a 3-minute walk and the Metro was a 10-minute walk. Perfect...

Great Host, Rooms fulfilled out needs with room to spare, Fridge, Ironing board and decent Iron, Washing Machine , Flat screen tv and amazing price

The room is spacious. Finishing - like your grandma's. Bed linen and towels were clean. The bed was amazingly comfortable. There was enough soap and paper in the toilet to survive the Apocalypse. The administrator (perhaps he is also the owner) was friendly and settled us without any scam. The morning was very quiet, I did not hear a single mosque. But you could hear the party in the restaurant...

great hotel for family's, big apartments, quite, clean and in the middle off the old city close to all attractions.

A good place if you want to visit istanbul and you don't need luxury place, near to tourists places Clean apartment, there is a small kitchen and washing machine Take care of the stairs, dangerous to especially with kids Excellent location, everything is available around you , lots of shops, restaurants and coffee shops Near to tram station and marmaray sirkeci istasyonu and Eminönü port where you...

Perfect Option for Family, you will feel like you have visited your uncle house as the staff over there is very friendly and he will take care of you 24/7 same as your uncle. High recommendation for family stay. don’t expect luxuries amities, but they have all what ever you name… Kitchen with all utilities, washing machine with washing power 😉, Iron board, prayer mat, neck pillow and etc etc… But...

We came to Istanbul for the weekend and checked into a deluxe room on the 4th floor. The room was quite new, with tea/coffee/water, a hairdryer, slippers, towels, and toiletries all provided. No issues with hot water. You could catch a glimpse of the sea from the window. The elevator was interesting! 😁 The area is excellent, with everything nearby. There's a shop on the first floor. We only had breakfast...

We arrived early and had trouble getting into the hotel for a long time; it was closed. We had to call from a neighboring hotel. Since it was past breakfast time and our room wasn't ready yet, they offered us a room in the building under construction across the street. We really didn't want to stay somewhere without heating and ventilation, so we asked to see the uncleaned "family deluxe" room we originally...

The staff were incredibly kind and helpful throughout my stay. The room was extremely clean I even walked around in white socks and they stayed spotless, which says a lot! Everything I needed was provided, including shampoo, soap, slippers, and other essentials, so the stay felt very comfortable. I stayed for 6 nights and had no problems at all. At first, I found the location a little confusing and...

It was good, but the stairs were steep and it was a bit hard to find. The landlord was waiting for us downstairs. Just follow the location on the map. The owner has a shop right across the street, but the items are a bit pricey.

I was there with my girlfriend and all was okay.

Honestly? Great value for the price, sparkling clean rooms, friendly service, unbelievably great location, cutesy little breakfast, would absolutely recommend it!

A quiet and peaceful hotel! Great location (3 minutes from the Rumeli metro exit), recently renovated, and the receptionist was always available.

"Excellent location and a beautiful, clean apartment. Thanks to the hotel for the outstanding service, and special thanks to Ayra and the polite young man at the reception. I highly recommend the hotel."

excellent The staff are very respectful There is a washing machine

The location of the hotel is excellent, near Osmanbey metro station, and the owners of the hotel are very friendly

A very comfortable apartment, 1 minute from Osmanbey metro

The hotel's location is perfect. It's just a few minutes to Istiklal Avenue, and Taksim Square and Galata Tower are within walking distance. Shops, restaurants, cafes, currency exchange offices, and ATMs are all nearby, and any public transport is no more than a 10-minute walk away. The hotel itself is very decent. The soundproofing is good, and there's an elevator. The room is large at 32 sq.m.,...

The hotel is surrounded by excellent amenities.

This only Stars for Fatma at reception without her is ZERO stars, no service except you room will be half cleaned by house keeping its not a bad room but you have pushing the Staff, matress is almost new and comfortable. Location only perfect if you are into crowded shopping area with loud late nights, its very obvious that the owner is trying to save every penny short staffed idont consider a hotel...

Excellent apartment! We checked in quickly, even before the scheduled time. The room was clean and had everything we needed in the kitchen. The host was very attentive! We will definitely come back again! I particularly want to highlight the perfect transportation access: the metro, funicular, and trams are all nearby... And the amazing view from the window too!))

Wonderful apartment! The host is responsive and provides all necessary check-in and check-out information. The check-in process is clear and convenient. The location is superb! The interior of the apartment is also very beautiful. Overall, I highly recommend it. I really enjoyed my trip and my stay here.

Good location, very walkable to Gala Tower and tram station. Located on a quiet street, next to a church. The room is spacious. You need to bring your own shampoo, soap, and other toiletries. The air conditioning and TV work well. However, the bed is slightly uncomfortable for two people. I recommend switching to a firmer mattress. There was no WIFI for about three days due to a cable issue, which...

The apartment is excellent, definitely book it if you can! It's a very beautiful room, with a bay window overlooking the church, perfect for sitting and drinking coffee. Large rooms, beautiful walls. I loved it!

Beautiful and atmospheric apartments! The location is simply perfect: close to Istiklal Avenue and just a stone's throw from the Galata Tower. Despite its proximity to busy areas, the apartment itself is quiet. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Excellent transportation access – the metro and tram are nearby. The only thing to keep in mind: getting to the apartment requires some climbing...

Very nice small hotel in a fantastic location, which is close to ferry, Metro, buses and most importantly the array of amazing cafés and restaurants in the area. The ladies at the reception were super friendly and helpful. Check in was very easy and fast, and check out the same. The place is secured with 2 doors, so security is not an issue. The room itself was nice, clean, and had a very comfortable...

Everything was perfect, nice modern room, the staff at the reception super kind, the breakfast was excellent with a nice view. We will never forget our stay there. Everything we need was nearby.

Situated at the busy street... Although the place is small, it's clean... Lady boss is friendly... Breakfast is at top floor and you get to view outdoor

Stayed at Loka Suites for 5 nights. Location is right in the bustling Kadikoy about 5 minutes walking distance from Metro and taxis. Plenty of restaurants, cafes and eateries just downstairs. Rooms, stairs and lobby were clean for which the credit goes to the lovely ladies who are managing the property. Very friendly and courteous. Breakfast is good but there is much room for improvement. Overall...

Wonderful stay at Loka Suite! Mr. Erdem was incredibly kind and helpful — it felt like staying at a friend’s home. The room was spotless, as if brand new. Great location, peaceful yet central. Highly recommend for a cozy and clean experience.

Location is very good, not far from ferry stations and havaist stations. Breakfast was good, amazing view from a terrace. Staff was extremely welcoming! The only disadvantage was a smell in the room no.203, also the shower was unstable sometimes hot and cold so you have to adjust it all the time. Wi-fi was good, I was able to connect via vpn and work but sometimes we were losing connection 🥲

Pleasant stay at the hotel nice reception staff helped me take luggage upstairs and breakfast was also good only tv was not working the hotel is in good location with many food and shops close by

We arrived at Tamara Residence as walk-in guests — a family of six, with four adults and two children. The manager on duty (I didn’t catch his name, but he wears spectacles) was incredibly welcoming and offered us a fantastic rate, even better than what we had seen online. We stayed six nights before heading to Cappadocia for three nights, and he kindly stored our luggage during that time. We returned...

We had an amazing stay at Tamara Residence Hotel in Taksim from 27 December 2025 to 4 January 2026. Everything exceeded our expectations. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to help with a smile. The room was comfortable and well-maintained, and the heating was excellent—even though it was snowing and freezing outside, we were always warm inside. There was hot water available...

Everything was fine, the location is super, just the rooms are very small

While the approach to the hotel features a steep incline, this is immediately mitigated by the presence of the hotel's courteous staff. A member of the team was consistently available outside the entrance to assist with luggage, ensuring a smooth arrival experience. The immediate impression upon entering is excellent. The lobby is spacious and well-lit, creating an inviting atmosphere. Strategically...

Location is ideal. Just 1-2 minutes to Taksim Square and to the bus ,train station and on walking distance from Hava bus/ HavaIST bus to the airports. The rooms were clean and above all the staff was very professional. Special thanks to yassin.

Good location, but it’s located down a hill if you want to go to the main area (Taksim) which made it a bit tough for us with a a baby in a stroller. The room was big, and relatively quiet. Overall a good stay.

Location is very close to shuttle bus from airport. Hotel is clean and Service is good.

Everything was good and staff work very well but a downside was that they forget about small things like putting a dental kid in bathroom, or speak English properly or refill water for room. These things aside other things were good for a suit with that price.

Very good and clean Hotel thanks a lot for everybody working in this hotel. Thanks a lot for Mr Cihan and Mr. Nuh ,very nice hotel for family close for taksim and Metro station And thanks for the Housekeeping person And for all the stuff Thanks, Keten Suite

it is %100 comfortable and very proper for families. the rooms are comfortable and spotly clean. Very hepful staff. Thank you team you are perfect. we have stayed 3 night with my family . The location is very central.

Great location and customer service. I got to book an apartment with 3 rooms & baths. It has a big hall and a small kitchen, big ref, dish washer and cloth machine. I enjoyedthe stay with the family. The only thing U need to push for the daily cleaning. Very close to Midan Taksim. Only a little hill U need to pass, but it is an easy way. فندق عائلي و قريب على تقسيم ، نظيف و به كل احتياجات...

I stayed here at the end of October and really enjoyed my time. The atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and had a lovely family feeling. The staff were kind, the hotel was clean, and I felt comfortable and at home throughout my stay. I would definitely come back again 🙏🏼

For a budget friendly hotel, this is a great choice. The service is excellent, staff and management very friendly and helpful, rooms are clean, the break fast is good, great location for transportation. The only thing that bothered us is the space of the rooms, they are very small in size even for a couple, but in general everything else is excellent.

this hotel is very nice and very clean. service quality is also excellent. It is ideal and preferable for families. staff are friendly and helpful. Thank you to all the staff and reception.

Good side: The staff were friendly and polite. The hotel is located near main attractions and restaurants, and just few minutes walk from a metro and a tram station. The room was spacious and well illuminated. The breakfast was diverse and good. The Internet was fast. Bad side: When we arrived there was water leakage in the toilet, no mirror inside, and the toilet chair was dirty. Also, the air-conditioner...

Very Good management but receptionist need more customers service training and skills

It is a hotel which is situated in the heart of old City in fatih district. Simple yet a good choice for family. Metro and tram stations are in good walking range. Rooms are small, yet cleaning staff is great. We got a package wherein breakfast was included. Washrooms are small. I would suggest the hotel owners to add electric kettle in the room amenities. We stayed there with our daughter for thirteen...

The room was clean and the staff were friendly.

I saw the negative comments from a few years back and honestly I was hesitant to book from here but when I called the reception the staff was surprisingly kind to me and made my reservation relatively easy. Once I arrived I realised it was not that bad contrary to comments. The room was big and comfy. I myself am quite sensitive about hygiene but thankfully the cleaning was good. We rented a car for...

Nice hotel, very close to the metro station. A special thanks to the receptionist (Kerem) who was very friendly and helpful.

If I was reading rewiews before we booked the room here, we wouldn't definitely stay there. But, people often forget that regardless of some mistakes in past, there is always room for improvement. As a world traveller (travelled 70+ countries on 4 continents), I always have high expectations. We were expecting only a place to sleep over before our flight that was next day, thats why we choosed to stay...

Night staff not speaking English and not wearing face masks, hotel in need of upkeep. Room ample sized and clean, but no towels for the shower. Electrical sockets looking a little dangerous. Breakfast starts late 8.30+ but they were kind enough to arrange if for me earlier and get a taxi for me. The mor Ing recpionsist spoke English. I was going to give 2 stars, but due to the morning care I give it...

why yes? Nice staff, excellent cleaning, large room, close to the metro. The restaurant downstairs is just wonderful. Why not? No balcony, not everything works and no electricity by the bed. The garage near by makes a noise and a burnt smell during the day. Smelly old towels. Wifi sometimes dosn't work in room.

Clean , perfect location , 3 mn to metro

Because I made a reservation late, the hotels were reserved. Despite other people's negative reviews about this accommodation, I booked here and realized that the negative reviews were from before the renovation. The location is excellent, less than a three-minute walk to the Sisli metro station, which is the place where the metro line changes. The staff of the residence do their best for your comfort...

One of the best. It really gives a warm and welcoming feeling. The rooms are clean, and all the hotel agents are super friendly and nice, such as Bahram and Shyrin. I had a lovely experience there.

I am staying in Istanbul 45 days and this is the hotel where I will stay my entire time. The hotel is amazing I could not choose better and it is worth of every penny. It is very clean and all shops are within two minutes walking. The Management and the stuff on the reception Mr Zafaar and the janitors are extremely helpful ,kind and polite, they are available 24/7. They respond immediately on any...

Front desk very Fast and frendly... Room clean and very big Thank you family time suite

very nice location and rooms. very good business.

Everything was wonderful. We are two young ladies who spent nine nights here alone, and we have absolutely no complaints. For this price, you shouldn't expect a five-star hotel. The price-performance ratio is excellent. If you don't want to spend a lot of money, you shouldn't expect five-star amenities either. The location is wonderful, extremely central, and there's always a lot going on here. The...

Price is good. Location is perfect, the most central you can ask for. However, due to that quite loud at night as well Towels were dirty (literally dirty; but, to be fair, not all of them). Cups were dirty. No parking. No sunlight in the room

It is a perfect structure that will befit and serve Istanbul for many years, which does not cover the new modern and historical silhouette of my country opening to the seas. Looking in the direction of Üsküdar from the coastline, when you turn to the port direction after inhaling the deep, peaceful richness in the fast flowing blue of the Bosphorus, the modern structural image almost disappears and...

very friendly, helpful and willing to recommend, cleanliness first of all staff can not ask for better

I enjoyed the stay My mom and I spent 9 nights here The staff are very friendly and seem like genuine people. They were open to letting us check-in a couple hours early. The room was clean and you can request cleaning during the stay, our personal items remained exactly how they were. The breakfast was good too, the same thing everyday made us fall into a comfortable routine. I recommend going for...

Amazing staff. Extremely kind Specially Amir the receptionist. Super warm, friendly and responsible about passengers’ comfort. Best service Respectful and polite Special thanks to Amir and Mr. Hossein as well. 👏🏻🌹

You only get what you pay for, Location is good, close to istiklal street, Staff behaviour is very friendly and accommodating, lobby is very beautiful. Old building and has not elevator. Hotel price reflects by itself. They helped me carry luggage in my Uber. There is always a room for improvement, this hotel can be improved in a very great manner.

clean hotel. at first day the neighboor seems a little bad but you will use to it, accessibility to istiklal st is easy. the owner Mr Serkan is very friendly and nice man, he's helpful, the minibar is fantasic and very cold, the hair dryer ok, the other rooms were quiet and all family, no singles. among 3 star and even some 4 stars hotel this hotel highly recommended

An affordable excellent stay near Istiklal street, with the super helping host (Serkan) that helped us in anycase. This hotel is even good if you travel solo, as you can count on the people from hotel. Ordinary breakfast and clean rooms. Definitely will come back to this place.

Very ugly neighborhood, room with a very strong musty smell. Bathroom with almost nothing. Dirty bed. Very good staff. Bad breakfast.

Amazing location, great view. It’s a good for chilling and enjoy the view.

A very good and nice hotel in terms of location, distinguished & VERY kind staff. Rooms with a modern system, decor & at a very good price. I spent 8 days there & they were ideal. For me when I come back to Istanbul I will definitely book here.

The room was nice but it wasnt properly clean. The heater had stains,we found also hair and a clipped toenail. If they fix the cleaning issue i would suggest that place for sure. The neighbourhood is quiet in general.

We arrived late at around 9pm, but we were able to check in easily. Check out was also easy. It was a small hotel with only a spiral staircase, so people with heavy luggage should be careful. It was not my first time in Istanbul, and we only had a day to stay, arriving at night and leaving the next day, so we avoided hotels in tourist areas and chose this hotel, which is easy to get to the Fener Balat...

Such a great place! The people who work there are amazing! Such nice people!! It is close to a lot of places which you can visit while in Istanbul. The rooms are clean, they have AC, there is free parking and the wi fi is also decent. I highly recommend this place.

It was very nice to stay at Gen Suites Cibali. I was there with my family, we had a standard room and the room on the top of the building with an amazing view to the Bosporus (you can also see the Galata Tower from the terrace 😍). The rooms were beautiful and clean, the service was super good and friendly - everyone and no matter how late it was!! The location was perfect, it is just really short...

I loved the area. Walkable to everywhere. It’s quiet, soundproof. Amenities are perfect. My husband and I enjoyed everything. The view is beautiful. I completely recommend this place.

Close proximity to main attractions. Apartments (we stayed on the 3rd floor) are clean, correspond to the description and photos. Check-in without problems. Cafes and shops nearby. Tram stop is a 10-minute walk away. Excellent view from the window.

Excellent location and the property owners are very helpful. The staff who work there were accommodating and kind despite the language barrier. The lovely man who worked there went out of his way to help us with anything we needed. The view from our balcony was amazing. Thank you!

We truly enjoyed staying in this lovely apartment. The location was the best: in the very heart of the historical district, less than 10 minutes walk to Aya Sophia, Blue Mosque, etc. Close enough to public transportation which we used. There were a refrigerator, a stove and a kettle (no coffee maker) which we used to make our breakfast. There was a terrace with a view to a next door mosque and Marble...

Great spot for exploring local landmarks while on the European side! Nice spot for a family or small group, and the balcony was awesome. Our host was very nice as well. I recommend it for any Istanbul first timer who wants easy access to Hagia Sofia, mosques, bazaar, etc

I liked the accommodation option, especially if you want to be in the historical center. You need to be prepared for cobblestones, narrow streets and steep descents and ascents. That's why it is a historical district) But literally around the corner is the hippodrome, the Sultanahmet mosque, Hagia Sophia. Of the lesser known - two cisterns - Feodosia and Nakkash (this one is even free). Literally nearby...

Clean and cozy place enough for a short stay. Perfect location close to dolmabahce palace about 5 min walk. Friendly staff and helpful.

Hey Puffin Team, Puffin Hostel truly made my visit to Istanbul easy and enjoyable. It's perfectly located in the heart of the city, with everything you might want to explore just a short distance away. Whether you're taking the ferry, tram, funicular, taxi, or bus, all transport options are easily accessible. Surrounded by Turkish restaurants, shops, and entertainment, Puffin Hostel is the ideal base...

Across the Bosphorus (literally 5mins away), the hostel is just the place you might be looking for. The host is amazing, full of warmth and extremely hospitable. The street has very good food options for filling breakfast. Highly recommended. 15/10

Location is perfect, near all the restaurants and bars. There was a really nice breakfast street right under the hotel. Internet worked very well, no issues. 10 minute walk to the pier and 15 minute walk to Dolmabahce Palace. 24 hour service was good because there was always someone in the reception. They even answered phone calls late at night when I was trying to find a hotel after the hotel I...

We had a fantastic experience. The location is perfect, right in the heart of everything—just a short walk from bars, restaurants, and all public transportation (about 5 minutes). It made exploring the city so convenient. Alp has been an exceptional host, always attentive and ensuring I had a wonderful experience. Knowing that I’m pregnant, he went out of his way to make my stay comfortable by offering...

Best place in Istanbul Favorite place in istanbul Best manager to ever be a manager

We are very pleased with the attitude and hospitality of the staff. Everything is clean and the atmosphere is calm and peaceful. We would definitely stay here again. Special thanks to Semra – she is a very kind and wonderful person.

The hotel is cheap, but relatively clean. The service is also good, excluding the fact they were not cooperative when it came to late check out, even after I told them I have a fever.

Really nice place, perfect location, close to public transport, markets and restaurants. The staff is great, very polite and willing to help. The rooms are clean and cozy with all the amenities needed, if anything additional is needed, the staff will help have it. The breakfast is also nice, diverse and fresh.

Quiet hotel, very nice services. We were very happy with our stay

It is a great place for families, it is organized and the employees are very helpful. There is elevator and good security. Rooms are clean and tidy, and if u want new towels they can provide it for you. The only disadvantage is that the wifi is slow and after a certain time it gets reset, so you have to put your passport info again. Highly recommended place, will be visiting again.

I traveled with my wife and my 2 kids. We stayed in a duplex, the kids loved the idea of an inside stairs! the staff were very friendly and helpful, the furniture and space was really great, we enjoyed our stay there, there's a parking in front of the hotel and in the building in front of the hotel, it is free of charge just ask any of the gentlemen in the reception and they will help you. The breakfast...

Murat and Muhammed they are the best employees in the hotel They give endless support and help during our stay

An excellent hotel with wonderful spacious rooms and outstanding service. I stayed in a room on the top floor, which offered a great view of the city. The hotel staff is very friendly, welcoming, and responsive. I was very satisfied.

Everything was perfect. The rooms are large and clean. The staff is super friendly. We stayed in the hotel for a week. We will definitely return here in future

Best thing about this hotel was the staff and the service, very nice, helpful and cheerful. I was there for a month and whenever I asked for something it was done immediately, with a smiling face, not to mention the nice communication with all of them, big thanks to that team for making my stay less lonely!

Rooms a spacious, good kitchen, balcony and clean. The staff are very friendly, speak good English and very helpful and cheerful. Special shout out to Cenk, Ayaz, Muraz and the gentlemen who checked me in for exceptional service and always happy to help out. Highly recommend this place. 🇦🇺

Realy so clean hotel. İf ı come turkey again ı will never stay another hotel thank you nish suit hotel
