Istanbul is a vibrant, lively city, and this apartment is an excellent base for a visit. It’s in a quiet residential area, so you’ll be nicely removed from the hustle and bustle of the crowds, but it’s easy to get around using public transport so you’ll still be able to see all the sights. The Osmanbey metro station is an eleven-minute walk away – the only difficulty is choosing what to see first. Perhaps you’ll enjoy a spot of shopping and people-watching at Taksim Square, where you can sit in a cafe and watch the world go by. There are plenty of restaurants to dine in and boutiques and theatres to discover. History buffs will want to see the Ottoman-era Sultan Ahmed Mosque, often called the Blue Mosque. 

When you’ve seen all the sights and are ready to relax, you’ll be glad to have such a comfortable apartment to call home. It’s a bright and welcoming home, flooded with light from the wall-to-wall glass doors that lead to the balcony. It’s the perfect place to sit back with a cold beer and watch the sun go down over the sweeping city view.

The iconic and historic symbol of Galata Tower is often what first comes to mind when people think about Istanbul, and when you stay at this incredible home, it will be on your mind for the entire duration of your holiday. A penthouse apartment, this home offers incredible views of Beyoğlu including the tower from both its balcony and the large floor-to-ceiling windows that span an entire wall in the living area. So, whether you’re making your morning Turkish coffee, cooking dinner or lounging on the sofa after a busy day, you will always be able to glance out of the windows and enjoy the view.

With its central location, this home is also the perfect base for exploring the area and all the attractions on offer, not just the Galata Tower. Then, in the evening, after you’ve tired yourself out, come together for an alfresco meal of Turkish Shawarma or Kofta as the sunsets on your panorama, glowing golden and orange around the tower’s silhouette.

In the heart of fascinating Nisantasi, this modern, colourful apartment has charmed us with its quirky art, bright living space and pretty surroundings. On the sixth floor, its Juliet balconies open it up to the neighbourhood's trees and rooftop views.

With so much to do on your doorstep, and a nearby Metro station giving you access all over the city, you'll have a comfortable base to come home to. With two bedrooms and two bathrooms, it's perfect for friends sharing or for a small family, and its homey feel makes it ideal for a long stay.

We love the living room, with its big windows, houseplants and pops of vibrant colour, along with the dining table by the window – and the master bedroom is pretty special too. Plus there's a unique spot to sit and admire the view just off the second bedroom.

Sleek white walls surround you, brightened up by yellow hues on the pillows and lampshades. The metallic kitchen is where you'll be cooking up homemade meals to enjoy with your loved ones at the dining table by the window – providing you with a fantastic view of the nearby sea. The windows allow the daylight to pour into the living room area as you admire the glistening waves of the coast – put your feet up and pop on a movie to watch together on the sofa.

The second bedroom has a futuristic glass panel that leads to the living space and a handy desk for when you need to catch up on your emails. There's also a charming little balcony to step onto as you relax with a tasty cup of coffee or sip on a sumptuous glass of red.

Explore the surrounding streets under the sun and take a walk to the coastal front of the Bosphorus strait. You'll discover a great choice of eateries to dine out in such as the lovely waterside Beltaş Kitap Cafe. For culture lovers and history buffs, there's a museum to be wandered through only a short walk away.

Reflection City

Ideally located in the upmarket Nişantaşı neighbourhood, this apartment ticks all the boxes for a stylish stay in the European side of Istanbul. Inside, it’s elegant yet unpretentious – we loved the boiserie and sleek pops of black in the living space. Start lazy mornings with a cup of Turkish coffee on the contemporary L-shaped couch before putting together a traditional breakfast in the streamlined kitchen. 

After finishing your holiday read from the comfort of the bubble chair, pull on your walking shoes and explore your surroundings. Treat yourself to something special in the nearby fashion boutiques or visit the neo-baroque Teşvikiye Mosque, less than a fifteen-minute stroll away. Hop on the metro at Osmanbey station and whizz into the heart of the city – gaze across the Bosphorus from the top of Galata Tower then fill up on traditional cuisine in a nearby restaurant.

In the buzzing Cihangir neighbourhood, this swish apartment is ideal for business or leisure. The narrow, leafy streets around you are home to hole-in-the-wall restaurants serving Gözleme and Kunefe while trendy coffee shops spill out onto the pavements. You’ll find all the transport connections you need – tram, ferry and even funicular – at nearby Kabataş, and Taksim is right next door. Inside, it’s a classy space with mosaic tiles and glass walls. The kitchen is small but has all you need for self-catering. The real bonus is the private, plant-filled courtyard, perfect for Turkish tea and baklava outside.

And to ensure you experience the height of relaxation there’s also a shared roof terrace – providing the perfect spot for sunset drinks. 

From here, days can be spent weaving your way along the cobbled streets of Balat and Fener, admiring the ancient city walls, getting lost in bazaars and treating your senses to the ultimate hammam experience.

Studded with minarets and mosque domes rising above the Bosphorus, Istanbul’s skyline is the stuff of postcards and page-a-day calendars. Spot the world-famous Hagia Sofia and Blue Mosque from across the water at this huge apartment with three roof terraces to choose from. It’s in Galata, a neighbourhood famous for its ancient Venetian tower offering views across the whole city. The tram can see you in Sultanahmet for the city’s ancient sights in around ten minutes and the foodie haven of Taksim is a short walk away.

The home itself consists of three apartments with their own kitchens, living rooms and entrances for a little extra privacy. Three rooftop terraces have far-reaching city views over the shambling rooftops of Galata and across the Bosphorus to the iconic Hagia Sofia. There are areas to dine outside, sofas for relaxing with a Turkish tea and a barbecue if you want to add to the lamb-smoke scent of Istanbul’s kebab houses in the area. 

Inside, modernity meets tradition and we love the living room on the top floor with its warehouse-style windows showing off the view. This is the perfect spot for the group to gather and dine as the sun sets. Those lucky enough to bag the main bedroom can enjoy a post-sightseeing soak in the Jacuzzi tub with a cityscape panorama.

This gorgeous apartment situated inside a historic building right in the beating heart of Istanbul is an ideal base for a family or a group of friends wanting to make the most of their time in this magical city. While you’ll have to climb up quite a few stairs to reach this fourth-floor pad, it’ll be worth it once you come in and find yourself embraced by the warm ambience. 

We love the generous space, high ceiling and streams of natural light that come flooding in through the large windows. Get cosy in the elegant living room and enjoy an evening of TV and wine in the company of your loved ones. While there’s certainly no lack of excellent dining out options in the vicinity, you can also choose to have a quiet evening at home, in which case rustling up something delicious will be a breeze, thanks to the modern and well-equipped kitchen. 

The whole party will enjoy a night of sweet dreams and restful sleep in the plush bedrooms, and the sleek bathroom adds another note of luxury. In the morning, start your day with some fresh coffee and breakfast in the dining room, before heading out to explore the city.
