This arts and culture attraction is on the to-do lists of many visitors to Taksim. But Mekan Arti isn't the area's only drawcard. Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and Topkapi Palace are some other worthwhile sights close by.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (605 reviews)

We loved our stay at this hotel. It was very clean and spacious. The breakfast was great and the location was excellent, just a short walk from the main attractions and the tram stop is very close. What made is extra special was the staff! They were all very professional, had excellent recommendations and went out of their way to assist us with whatever we needed. We will definitely be returning.

8/10 Very Good! (337 reviews)

The hotel was right near the busy shopping street, which made it perfect for us. It’s walking distance from the Galata Tower and has lots of transportation options. Food options were plentiful and if you are in Istanbul for the night life it’s one of the places to be. I stayed Wednesday through to Friday, the first night was quiet no noise from the street. But Thursday heading to the weekend was very noisy sound like a birthday party was happening under our bedroom window until 3am, so bear that in mind if you wanted a quiet stay. Also I booked the breakfast included options and the view of the city was amazing from there. All in all I would book again but mid week though.
