Orka Taksim Apart Hotel

Staying at Orka Taksim Apart Hotel was an absolute delight. Located just a short walk from Istiklal Street, the neighborhood is vibrant, safe, and full of charm. We were visiting during the final days of Eid al-Fitr, and while our initial room wasn’t quite what we expected, the staff went above and beyond to help. They not only offered to switch us to a different room the next day but even let us choose one ourselves—such a thoughtful touch! The hotel’s location is unbeatable: right next to a cozy coffee shop called Gramaj, a local tea house just across the street, and plenty of convenient stores nearby—including a fresh bakery, supermarket, and fruit & vegetable market. The cleaning team did an excellent job, especially Salih, who was consistently attentive and thorough. Zahra and her colleague at reception were professional, friendly, and always ready to assist.

The St. Regis Istanbul

St. Regis Istanbul delivers an exceptional luxury experience in a prime location right on the famed Istiklal Avenue. The hotel’s design and furnishings are impeccably elegant, reflecting true sophistication from entrance to room. Staff went above and beyond—especially when I requested a late checkout, which they accommodated with genuine warmth and professionalism. While the lively street below does bring some ambient noise at night, and the door insulation could be slightly better (you can hear neighboring doors opening and closing), it’s a minor trade-off for such a fantastic stay. The highlight? The private balcony in my room and the rooftop lounge, where you can enjoy a cocktail under the stars. With ample outdoor space, this is a dream spot for smokers and cigar enthusiasts looking to unwind in style. Overall, the experience was outstanding—highly recommended for those seeking both comfort and character in Istanbul.
