Elegance and high quality with breezy sea views

Our apartment is on the third floor - three flights of original marble stairs - of a grand and elegant 19th century building near the beautiful Galata Tower. The street is sophisticated, with smart cafes, top Turkish fashion design boutiques and a cool bohemian feel.

The apartment is only 1 minute walk from Sishane metro station, 3 minutes walk to Tünel funicular and a short downhill walk to connect with the tram for Sultanahmet. Famous Istiklal Avenue is around 5 minutes walk up the hill.

The bedrooms are stylish: two doubles and one twin, each with designer velvet headboards and high quality crisp white linens. Two of the bedrooms have fabulous views. The kitchen is large, chic and well-equipped with high-end appliances including dish-washer. The dining area has a lovely ceramic tiled floor and leads to the airy hall. The living room is stylish and comfortable with two feather-filled sofas and a bar table area leading to bay windows with fabulous panoramic views across the Bosphorus and Golden Horn. The spacious hall has a smart shower room at one end and a separate loo at the other. Original wooden floorboards give a warm feel and all doors and windows are also elegant originals, adding grace.

This apartment is 130 m2 in total, serene and restful. It's flooded with sunlight through its large sash windows and has very high ceilings throughout. The bedrooms comfortably accommodate six people.

The apartment has stunning views of the Bosphorus.

We enjoyed Julia's place immensely. She provided easy instructions and great advice. She also provides additional services to make your stay even better. The apartment, on the 3rd floor, has stunning views of the Bosphorus. The beds and linens are clean and very comfortable. The decor is fantastic; it makes you feel right at home after a long day's walking.

Best Location

Thank you for the latest updates on the community, the holidays as well as transportation, the metro etc. It allowed us to move around Istanbul with ease. The owners and Taskin were always responsive to our questions regardless of the time of day. Thank you for the recommendation to visit Sensus, the self guided wine tasting room behind the Galita Tower! We hope you enjoy the Suveg Cellars wine!

The location was perfect! Although there are three flights of stairs the view when you arrive at the apparent is worth it! Absolutely stunning! For such a busy area the apartment is very quiet and supplied with all the amenities you need. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Great base!

We had a love week-long stay at Pasha Place. Super helpful and attentive staff, great location, top-notch view of Bosphorus and Golden Horn. The neighborhood is an epi-center of tourism and it can be a bit difficult to escape the crowds, but the trade-off of being close to mass transit and the apt views more than compensated. Highly recommended!

The view is fantastic and the beds wonderfully cozy

A great apartment in a very nice side street of the bustling Galata Tower. The view is fantastic and the beds wonderfully cozy. We were happy to come back to the apartment every time after a long day out of town. For those traveling by car/van, there is a cheap parking space nearby that the hosts have recommended to us. Thanks for the great stay!

Views .. but have to work for it

Perfect spot, amazing views, convenience of being close to most attractions, transport, supermarkets, eateries.Helpful staff, especially Julieta.Comfort, warm and snug in the apartment, when it rained, snowed and sleet most of our 6 days! Bathroom a little too snug for 3 of us.3 flights of stairs, but we were aware. Still worth it!
