Smoking-friendly holiday rentals in Nişantaşı, Teşvikiye

We enjoyed our stay at this apartment! The location is excellent — just a 5 to 7 minute walk to Taksim Square, which makes it easy to access the metro and bus system. From Taksim, you can take the funicular down to Kabataş and hop on the T1 tram (at Kabatas) to reach key tourist sites like the Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and Gulhane Park. You can also take a ferry to the Asian side (Üsküdar and Kadikoy) from Kabatas. The apartment itself was clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The hosts were kind, responsive, and great with communication. Overall, a convenient and pleasant place to stay — we would definitely recommend it!

Staying with Erkan was an experience. The reception was warm, including a full refrigerator with drinks. The apartment with the terrace overlooking the Bosphorus is simply breathtaking. The apartment itself was beautifully furnished, very clean and spacious! The location was perfect and was within walking distance to all attractions. Erkan always took care of us and was always easy and quick to reach. I can highly recommend the apartment and will definitely take this apartment again on my next visit.

We stayed for a month and loved the location—2 blocks from Istiklal and Cihangir’s cafes, 10-min walk to Taksim, Şişhane, or Tophane metros. Large apartment, just as pictured. Note: elevator stops between floors, so you’ll need to walk a few steps. No oven (listing should note that), but the small air fryer works well. Microwave was “being repaired” but never returned—not really missed. The bed was comfortable for my husband, but I found it tough to get cozy sleeping on my side. A/C in the living room cools the space great. Bedroom has a floor fan—pretty loud, but it works. I sleep hot and had to run it on high. Ahmed and Gogo were excellent hosts—fast responses via Airbnb app. We’d definitely stay again!

I had a fantastic experience staying at this apartment. The beautiful night view of the nearby mosque was a true highlight — peaceful and stunning when illuminated. The location was ideal, just a short walk to the nearest bus stop, making it easy to get around. There were plenty of restaurants and supermarkets nearby, which made daily needs convenient. The owner was always responsive, kind, and helpful throughout my stay. Everything was smooth and comfortable from check-in to check-out. I highly recommend this apartment for anyone seeking a great location and a welcoming host!

Great stay. Spectacular views from the balcony.

This is an amazing place, located very near Taksim Square with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The apartment is beautiful. It has big rooms and fully renovated bathrooms. There is also a big terrace and a well equipped kitchen. The host is very friendly and responsive. The instructions to check in are clear. I couldn’t find anything negative. Highly recommended.

Excellent location in Beyoglu, close to cafes, restaurants & a 10-20 min walk to the tram or ferry (for those less able-bodied, the area is on top of a hill). Apartment itself isn’t huge but was as advertised and fine for 2 people (note: the bed is a double). The living space was great to have for extra room, to relax and enjoy the morning air and evening sun. Also both the bedroom & living room have A/C. Host was responsive when we had any little issues or questions and everything was always resolved.

It was a great experience, the house is nice in a nice and quiet area, the apartment is located on the first floor and this is a great feature, Serkan the owner of the house is friendly, kind and quick to respond, it is a beautiful place

good location ..walking distance to Aya, markets and restaurants just outside apt., and not too noisy

Everything was very nice

We had a fantastic stay at Azad’s place! The unit was spacious and comfortable for 4 adults and 4 small children. The location was perfect — a short walk to the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, and a great park with a playground. There were also plenty of nearby restaurants and small shops for essentials. Azad was an exceptional host, arranging airport transport, meeting us late at night to show us the unit, checking in daily, and even providing thoughtful touches like a prayer rug and chocolates. One thing to note: the stairs inside and outside the unit are quite steep, which may be difficult for those with mobility issues. Overall, a wonderful experience. Highly recommended!

The apartment was spacious and quiet. Very well equipped and beautifully decorated. The immediate surroundings with graffiti looked less inviting, but this seems to be common in most of Cihangir. Overall we loved staying here and recommend the apartment.

Berk was an outstanding host—highly communicative and consistently attentive to our needs during our stay in Istanbul. The accommodation was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. We appreciated the layout: the stroller could be left on the main level, the second floor featured a spotless living room and kitchen, and the third floor had well-appointed bedrooms, each equipped with its own air conditioning unit—an excellent feature given the summer heat in Istanbul. The house is situated on a very steep hill, which makes it difficult to push the stroller around however, it is very central to everything. The only concern was the staircase railings, which had wide gaps and may pose a safety risk for young children. However, Berk had thoughtfully provided child safety gates. If these are installed prior to the arrival of guests with children, it would greatly enhance the overall experience.

I stayed in so many places, now the only place I will stay is obvious. It was incredibly beautiful. The host's beautiful face and smooth answers were incredible. It was a quiet and beautiful place, close to everywhere. We got around easily. The house was hygienic. If I talk about it again, you can be sure that it is my only address now. I recommend it to everyone...

Every thing was good Mustafa sehr freundlich

The place was really nice and clean. It's located close to Galata tower. Lots of restaurants and shops around. Despite the central location, the apartment has good soundproof. Also, there is a conditioner inside which is important for someone who don't like heat. Turgay was very helpful. I got responses to my messages within 5 minutes. He was flexible with a check in and provided useful information about the area and the city.

Great location, close to local amnesties. Gym was a little disappointing since the equipment were less, but the pool, sauna and steam room makes up for it. I had an issue with the AC first night and the host got it fixed the next day. He was super responsive and helpful. Highly recommend this apartment.

A comfortable and clean place with everything you need and a wonderful view

This was a very good trip Much better than my last trip to turkey thanks to the house, the house was very clean and exactly like the pictures, everything was as described and the owner was very good at communicating with me and checking up on things.

We had a great stay! The place was exactly as described – clean, comfortable, and in a beautiful, peaceful area. Hamed was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay, which made everything even smoother. I would definitely recommend this place and would be happy to come back!

One of the places I can always go with the comfort of your own home, with its magnificent view and location. I highly recommend it.

Furkan was very friendly and responsive. He helped me a lot through the whole stay. I had a nice and cozy stay, the place felt like home.

Nilufer was very helpful and kind. 👍

Melih’s apartment is large and comfortable and in a fabulous location to explore Kadikoy restaurants and markets by foot. Plus it is an easy walk to the ferry terminal. Melih is a super responsive host who helped us out with all our enquiries. If we come back to Kadikoy, we will stay here again.
