O'Pera Okanlı Suites: Beyoğlu aparthotel with family rooms

O'Pera Okanlı Suites is an aparthotel in Beyoğlu, Istanbul. Galata Tower is about 0.7 km away in a straight line, and Taksim Square about 1.3 km. Sirkeci railway station is about 1.9 km.

Süleymaniye Mosque is about 1.8 km away in a straight line, Topkapı Palace about 2.3 km, Hagia Sophia about 2.7 km and Sultan Ahmed Mosque about 2.9 km. Istanbul Airport (IST) is about 31.9 km away.

All six room types are built around a super-king bed. The smallest is the Junior Suite, 30 m² with a sofa bed as well, sleeping up to 2 and facing the street. The largest by far is the Apartment with Sea View: 80 m², also with a super-king bed and a sofa bed, sleeping up to 2, with a sea view. A couple wanting the most space, or a view, will look at that apartment; a couple wanting the lowest rate among the larger layouts has it too.

Between them sit four rooms of 35 to 40 m². The Deluxe Room is 35 m² with a street view; the Deluxe Suite, the Deluxe Family Suite and the Suite with Balcony are each 40 m². The Deluxe Suite sleeps up to 3 and has a sea view; the Deluxe Family Suite and the Suite with Balcony face the street. The Deluxe Family Suite, with its single super-king bed in 40 m², is the one the hotel frames for families, and children are allowed throughout the property.

As an aparthotel, O'Pera Okanlı Suites is set up for stays where a bedroom alone is not enough: the rooms are apartment-style layouts rather than standard hotel rooms. The property has family rooms, facilities for disabled guests and a lift. There is an electric vehicle charging station, and parking is available for a fee.

The hotel's other facilities cover the practical side of a longer stay, including laundry and dry cleaning, a tour desk and a concierge service, plus non-smoking, air-conditioned and soundproofed rooms.

Check-in is from 15:00 and check-out until 11:00. Children are allowed. Parking is paid, so a traveller arriving by car should expect a charge rather than a complimentary space. Guests with an electric vehicle can charge it at the hotel's charging station.

The hotel suits couples and small families who want apartment-style space in Beyoğlu: family rooms, children allowed, and layouts from 30 to 80 m² give room to spread out that a standard hotel room in the area often does not. Guests with reduced mobility or an electric vehicle are also provided for, with accessible facilities and a charging station.

It does not suit a traveller expecting resort-style amenities; the property is an aparthotel. Anyone needing more than one super-king bed per room, or a stated sleeping capacity above 3, will not find it here: the largest apartment sleeps up to 2, and only the Deluxe Suite sleeps up to 3.
