We had a lovely stay in Gulsen’s home in Cihangir Istanbul. His home is everything and more. The photos hardly do it justice. Plenty of space for 5 or more people. The roof-top terrace with a panoramic view of the Bosphorus just a few blocks away is the frosting on the cupcake. Beds are comfortable and the kitchen is pretty well equipped.
One thing to know is that the bed sizes are as follows for US travelers.
1 Queen Sized Bed
1 Full Size Bed
2 Twin Sized Beds
There are two convertible sofas in the salon that could sleep 2 people in a pinch.
Gulsen arranged airport transfers for us both ways.
We would return to Gulsen’s home when we return to Istanbul. The location couldn’t have been better.
