Additional Location Information
We at Living Istanbul aim to expose you to the diversity of this fascinating metropolis between two seas. All of our apartments are located in the district of Beyoğlu, on the European side of Istanbul, the perfect starting point to discover this exciting city of thousands of years of history.
The district of Aynali Cesme (translation: “fountain with mirrors”) is part of the historical core of modern-day Beyoglu, formerly known as “Pera.” At the end of the 19th century, a devastating fire destroyed most of the traditional wooden architecture in this neighbourhood but was completely rebuilt afterwards. Oddly enough, thanks to this catastrophe, the district offers a unique and complete collection of the architectural styles from around the turn of the 19th/ 20th century. Old Greek buildings with oriel windows overlooking the narrow streets are characteristic of this part of the city. Thus, with a bit of knowledge, a stroll back home equates to a stroll through a crucial time in modern Istanbul history .
Our apartments in Aynali Cesme are a far cry from the neighbourhoods of tourists and carpet-sellers. Surrounded by locals conducting their daily affairs and children playing in the street, your base in Istanbul is easily compared to a Turkish village rather than a contrived tourist attraction.
Nevertheless, you’re in the heart of Istanbul from where you are only minutes away from the famous pedestrian boulevard ‘Istiklal Caddesi’ which leads you directly to Taksim Square, the transportation hub of modern Istanbul. From there, all major attractions, such as the Sultanahmet district with the world famous Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque, are in close reach.

Forlì, ItalyA very comfortable flat, clean and well equipped
Left on 11/12/2012 for a stay in November 2012
I was in Istanbul with three friends. The flat kept all the promises: well restored, well equipped, clean and much more complete that usual flats for rents. The location is perfect, in a quiet street, but very near pedestrian area full of shops, restaurants, cafès. The guys by LivingIstanbul are very kind and friendly. A book with a lot of good suggestions is already on the table. We followed some of the advice and we were very satisfied. We used also their pick up transfer from the airport. We have been spending long weekends in European cities for 3 years and this is definetely the best flat we found!

KölnSehr empfehlenswerter ausgangspunkt um Istanbul zu entdecken.
Left on 07/14/2012 for a stay in April 2012
Von der Buchung angefangen, bis zur Organisation der abreise wurden wir bestens betreut.
Die Wohnung ist sehr geschmackvoll und funktional eingerichtet. Aus den Fenstern der Schlafzimmer schaut man in einen Lichtschacht, da wir aber immer unterwegs waren hat uns das überhaupt nicht gestört, dafür ist es absolut ruhig.
Wir hatten Matthias 2 x 1/2 Tag als Fremdenführer gebucht, und er hat uns an Orte geführt, die man als "normaler" Tourist nicht zu sehen bekommt. Sehr empfehlenswert !! -

Frankfurt/Main, Germanyawesome days in Istanbul
Left on 06/19/2012 for a stay in June 2012
check-in was very easy due to very friendly owner of the flat " Cigdem" It is located in the heart of Beyoglu, which means you are a few steps away from Istiklal street, Golden Horn, the historical peninsula with Hagia Sofia is very easy to reach with public transport ( Tünel, tramway) The flat is a dream, very clean, nice bedrooms, big living room, kitchen with balcony, what do you want more? It`s more like being home than abroad.Everything you need it`s around the corner,e.g. bakery, grocery, a supermarket ( DIa) max. 10 min. by walk. Cigdem received us cordially, answered all our questions, you can reach her at any time. You live among the locals, which are very friendly. Next in Istanbul, means living there again.

Londonlight and spacious - real Istanbul!
Left on 06/17/2012 for a stay in April 2012
Light and airy apartment, very comfortable with everything you need for your stay in Istanbul. It is very central but a little bit outside the main touristic track, in an authentic and charming area. Great service from the owners who arranged transport to/from the airport and gave us a tour of the city to get our bearings.

Stayed here for a week in July. The location is great and everything is within walking distance. The apartment is sunny, comfortable and true to the photos. Cigdem was a great help, always reachable, and even delivered a cake/champagne to us for a birthday. I'd definitely recommend staying here.

SwitzerlandExperience Istanbul!
Left on 08/02/2011 for a stay in June 2011
If you want to experience the heart of Istanbul, you have to stay at this beatiful apartment. We went there with my friends and we appreciated a wonderful stay. Only 5 minutes to Beyoglu. Very near to Galata-Bridge. Its so nice to be near to the night-life and just walk home in some minutes. The apartment is gorgious. Renovated from a famous architect, furnished very discreed and with love. We had a great holiday and we really got to know turkish life. Not like in an ordinary hotel oder an another apartment. The owners are also guides for a special view of istanbul, for exampel we went with a little privat boat on the bosporus and she arranged a guitar player on the boat so it was a unique experience. so if you want to have a unique experience, you have to stay at this apartment.
