We’re fussy about our Istanbul Place Apartments! We’re fussy about our Istanbul Place Apartments!

These high standards apply to everything, from choosing a particular apartment in the first place to accurately replacing the smallest piece of cutlery, if needed, as time goes by. 

Not every apartment has a balcony with a cityscape view, but they do all have special characteristics - you can be sure of a dash of something special whichever one you book ✨

Thanks Jonathan for this, it’s lovely to know that you had such a memorable arrival experience 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Would you recognise this as the interior of a hist Would you recognise this as the interior of a historic hamam? Have you ever been inside one? ✨

This beauty is an original Mimar Sinan design, built in the 16th Century for grand vizier Kara Ahmed Pasha. These days it’s used as an event venue and at the moment - until Feb 25th - you can explore inside to see an exhibition of contemporary art inspired by the archaeological dig at Aşıklı Höyük. 

This and additional pictures of the exhibition by @insideoutinistanbul 🙏🏻
