The view is breathtaking - morning and night. Cihangir, the neighborhood where this Airbnb is located, is “one of the best in all of Istanbul” (said by a local taxi driver). The bespoke, trendy restaurants and cafe were fantastic. It was refreshing to be surrounded by locals, rather than tourists (like in Sultanahmet).
One item for your awareness, this is situated atop a hill. It’s manageable and walkable, but if you have physical challenges or are with elders, be cautious. You will have to summon a taxi by phone who will come pick you up (that is if you go somewhere outside of Cihangir). If you want to explore the shops/cafes a couple blocks up the hill, well then, you’ll have to walk.
The living room was spacious and the decor was modern and comfortable. Anything you need in terms of toiletries, tea, cooking materials, blankets, pillows, slippers, towels, etc., are readily available.
There are two large size beds. One in each room. One of the rooms also has a double bunk bed.
We enjoyed this part of Istanbul and still reminisce about the view and summer experience.
Thank you SeaView Grand team for your hospitality!
