ARTHAUS is unique, beautiful, centrally located across from a fairly important pizza place (easy to find by cabs), with gracious hosts who went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable and recommended fantastic places to dine and activities. Be warned; through no fault of the owners, we didn’t read carefully enough and we were taken by surprise that there was no AC. The hosts kindly brought us extra fans to keep us cool during one of the hottest Istanbul summers. Lower floors keep the heat out better and more people can sleep on the couches in the yard/sunroom.
