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.

Millennia-old, Istanbul has a rich and colourful history that’s left a footprint on the city we know and love today. It’s been the terminus of spice and silk routes, and has been besieged thirty-six times by Byzantines, Ottomans and Romans – which left behind bustling bazaars, grand palaces and ancient ruins.
