İstanblue Taksim Apart Hotel: 0.4 km from Taksim Square

İstanblue Taksim Apart Hotel stands at 25 Kapanca Sokak, Istanbul, postcode 34435. Taksim Square is about 0.4 km away, in a straight line. Galata Tower is about 1.5 km and Dolmabahçe Palace about 1.8 km, both in a straight line.

Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is about 31.7 km away, in a straight line.

The hotel's doubles range from very small to compact. The Budget Double Room, at 8 m² with one double bed, is the smallest and sleeps up to three, which is tight at that size. The Double Room, at 10 m² with a queen bed, and the Standard and Superior Double Rooms, both 12 m² with a queen bed, each also sleep up to three. The Standard and Superior differ only in name: same size, same bed, same count.

Above the doubles, the rooms open up. The Penthouse Apartment, at 35 m², has a single queen bed and suits a couple who want space rather than extra beds. The Two-Bedroom Apartment is the largest at 60 m², with twin beds; its layout of separate sleeping spaces works best for adults sharing rather than a couple, since none of its beds is a double.

The hotel has parking, and a shuttle service is available for a fee. Family rooms are among the hotel's facilities, but children are not allowed, so in practice these rooms serve groups of adults travelling together rather than families in the usual sense.

This is an apart hotel, so expect apartment-style rooms alongside the conventional doubles described above. The property is non-smoking throughout, with non-smoking rooms.

Two rules shape who can stay. Children are not allowed, which makes the hotel adults-only in practice whatever a room type is called. Pets are also not allowed.

Beyond that, the hotel operates as a standard city property: a hotel at 25 Kapanca Sokak with express check-in and check-out among its services.

It suits adults travelling without children or pets who want to be close to Taksim Square, about 0.4 km away in a straight line. Couples have a clear ladder of doubles from 8 to 12 m², and a couple wanting more room can take the 25 m² Studio or the 35 m² Penthouse Apartment. Groups of adults sharing have the 60 m² Two-Bedroom Apartment, the largest unit the hotel offers.

It does not suit families with children, who cannot stay, or anyone travelling with a pet. A traveller who wants a spacious standard room should also note that every double here is 12 m² or smaller; the space in this hotel sits in the Studio, the Penthouse and the Two-Bedroom Apartment, not in the doubles.
