Stylish & Comfort Apartment in Ortaköy: 50 m² flat

Stylish & Comfort Apartment in Ortaköy is an apartment building rather than a hotel, standing on Bulgurcu Sokak in Istanbul, postcode 34347 — the address to hand to a taxi or transfer driver. It takes its name from the Ortaköy area it sits in, and with a single room type it is a small, simple operation: one apartment layout, let to at most two guests.

As an apartment building, it offers a stay in a single let-out home rather than a hotel floor of rooms. That shapes everything about who it works for, covered below.

Every distance below is a straight-line figure, measured from the building's position in Ortaköy.

The mosque is the nearest landmark, a fraction of a kilometre away. Three palaces — Yıldız, Çırağan and Beylerbeyi — sit between about 1.4 and 1.5 km, with Dolmabahçe Palace farther out at about 2.6 km. Hagia Sophia is the most distant sight at about 6.3 km, and the airport about 29.2 km — the figure to keep in mind when timing an arrival or departure.

• Ortaköy Mosque: about 0.5 km
• Yıldız Palace: about 1.4 km
• Çırağan Palace: about 1.4 km
• Beylerbeyi Palace: about 1.5 km
• Dolmabahçe Palace: about 2.6 km
• Hagia Sophia: about 6.3 km
• Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW): about 29.2 km

There is a single room type, so there is nothing to choose between categories: every guest gets the same apartment. It measures 50 m² and sleeps up to two, with two separate beds — a queen bed and a sofa bed — so two people travelling together need not share.

As a one-bedroom apartment, it gives the queen bed a room of its own, while the sofa bed doubles as seating by day — the practical shape of a one-bedroom layout for two people. The outlook is a garden view, toward the garden rather than the street. For two guests, 50 m² is a generous floor area.

Because the layout is fixed, the decision is simply whether it fits your party: two guests at most, on a queen bed and a sofa bed.

Check-in is from 15:00 and check-out is until 11:00, so plan to arrive in the afternoon and to leave by late morning.

Children are not allowed, and pets are not allowed. The apartment is therefore an adults-only choice: it will not work for a family with children, whatever their ages, or for a traveller bringing a pet.

In short, this is a stay for two adults — a couple on the queen bed, or two travellers splitting the queen bed and the sofa bed — who want one roomy apartment with a garden view rather than a choice of room categories. Its strengths are space per person and simplicity: one layout, 50 m², two beds, a garden outlook. Its limits are just as clear, and they are the rules as much as the size.

• Two adults: yes — the apartment sleeps up to two and gives each a bed of their own if they want one.
• Families with children: no — children are not allowed.
• Travellers with a pet: no — pets are not allowed.
• Groups of three or more: no — the apartment sleeps up to two.
• Anyone wanting a choice of room types: no — there is only the one.
