Just outside your apartment, you will feel the vibrancy of this ancient port city; seagulls flying overhead, the call to prayer, playful children walking home from school and a lively neighborhood going about its daily life. A two minute walk offers local merchants selling fresh baked bread, fruits and vegetables and all the necessities to stock your refrigerator and pantry as well as several wonderful neighborhood restaurants. Our incredibly central location is only a five minute walk to the hub of Istanbul's greatest Ottoman and Byzantine historical treasures including Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, the Byzantine Hippodrome, Topkapi Palace and the world famous Grand Bazaar. Hop on the nearby Metro and head to Eminonu Ferry Port for a cruise on the Bosphorus or across the Galata Bridge where modern Beyoglu, Taksim Square and the ancient Galata Tower await.
