3 Bedroom Apartment in Asmali Mescit, Istanbul

Our apartment is on the third floor - three flights of original marble stairs - of a grand 19th-century building with lion motifs, right next to the beautiful Galata Tower.

The living room overlooks the lively pedestrianised square below, while the kitchen and one bedroom have glimpses across the Golden Horn.
The bedrooms are stylish: two doubles and one twin, each with chic velvet headboards and high quality crisp white linens. One of the doubles is very big with lots of space for an additional folding bed. There's a contemporary and chic, well-equipped kitchen with high-end appliances including dish-washer. The separate dining area is just outside the kitchen. In the comfortable living room there's a feather-cushioned sofa, armchair and bar table with stools overlooking the tower. The shower room has a smart rain shower plus loo and there's a second separate loo along the spacious hallway.
This apartment is big at 120 m2 in total. It's bright and welcoming with large windows and lovely high ceilings. The exposed floorboards are all original and the wooden panelled doors have been retained. The living room has it's original ornate white plaster ceiling and the overall feel is of space and elegance. The bedrooms comfortably accommodate six people.
Guests will have the complete privacy of the entire apartment.
This is a small Turkish-British family project. Julia and Tarkan used to live in Istanbul then Singapore and are now balancing life between England and Istanbul. If we're in Istanbul during your stay we'd love to meet you.

Metro, bus, tram and ferry stops are all only a few minutes walk away. The famous Istiklal Avenue is around 5 minutes stroll. You can be in Sultanahmet (for the big sights of Ayasofya, Topkapı, Blue Mosque etc.) in about 20 minutes by public transport or 25 minutes on foot. In the other direction, by Metro, you can be in Şişli (for Istanbul’s biggest shopping mall) in 10 minutes or Levent (for Istanbul’s business district) in 15 minutes.

Summary: I loved the apartment – I would’ve been happy to never leave. The location is unbelievable! I love the area – cosmopolitan but with heart, so you get the best of both. It truly was a wonderful experience.

Summary: I had an amazing stay at this beautiful apartment right in front of the Galata Tower! The location is simply unbeatable—you step out of the building, and you’re in the heart of one of Istanbul’s most charming and vibrant areas. The view from the apartment is breathtaking, overlooking the tower and the lively square below. The building is a stunning historical gem from the late 1800s, and the apartment has been recently renovated with great care, preserving its original floors and doors while offering modern comforts. It perfectly blends old-world charm with contemporary convenience. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. The host was extremely responsive and helpful, making sure my stay was perfect in every way. The only small improvement I could suggest would be a larger TV, but honestly, with such an incredible view and so much to explore just outside the door, I hardly missed it. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Istanbul

Summary: Stunning apartment! Wooden floors, high ceilings, unbeatable location right by the tower. Super comfy beds and really clean, had all the necessities even bottled water. The hosts were very helpful and responsive, we had a great stay. Be advised that it's stairs only and on the 3rd floor, if you have big luggage or mobility limitations. I really can't fault this place, 5 star stay!

Summary: Real Turkish charm. Modern flat with a feel of antiquity. A perfect base to explore the new city or the old. Steep hills and cobblestones in every direction but the capital of the world does not disappoint and nor does this apartment !

Summary: The host was so kind and nice. If you request an airport pickup service in advance, it was convenient because it would pick you up on your own. If you have any questions, it was nice to get feedback right away! And the condition of the accommodation was clean, and each room was so palace-like and pretty. The location was also near a hot place, so it was good to go everywhere. There are also many restaurants nearby. If I can come next time, I definitely want to come again.😊
