Taksim alkan tower residence: apartments near Taksim Square

The property sits about 0.3 km from Taksim Square in a straight line. Galata Tower is about 1.5 km away, Dolmabahçe Palace about 1.6 km, Topkapı Palace about 2.8 km, Hagia Sophia about 3.3 km and the Sultan Ahmed Mosque about 3.6 km. Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport is about 31.5 km from the building.

The smallest room is the 25 m² Deluxe Room; the largest is the 40 m² Family Room. The One-Bedroom Apartment, at 30 m², is the only type furnished with a single double bed rather than a queen, which may suit a couple who prefer that bed width. The two larger types, the 35 m² Deluxe King Room and the 40 m² Family Room, each add a sofa bed to a queen bed, giving a fourth sleeping place in the Family Room's case alongside a twin bed.

Every room looks out over the city. The Deluxe Room and the One-Bedroom Apartment each sleep up to 3; the Deluxe King Room and the Family Room each sleep up to 4. For a couple or a solo traveller, the 25 m² Deluxe Room or the 30 m² One-Bedroom Apartment are the compact options.

The building has a lift, so upper floors are reachable without stairs, and it has facilities for disabled guests. Room service can be ordered through a mobile app, which suits travellers who prefer to arrange things from their room rather than by phone or in person.

Check-in opens at 14:00 and the latest arrival is 22:00. Check-out is by 12:00. Travellers whose flights or transfers arrive after 22:00 will not be able to check in that evening.

Children are not permitted at the property, and pets are not allowed. These are firm rules, not suggestions, and they apply to every room type including the Family Room.

This is an apartment building for adults. The no-children and no-pets rules mean it does not suit families with young ones or guests travelling with animals. It suits adult couples, solo travellers and small groups of adults who want a base within 0.3 km of Taksim Square and prefer an apartment layout to a conventional hotel room.

The lift and the accessible facilities make the building workable for guests with limited mobility who would struggle with stairs. The mobile app for room service suits travellers who want to order meals and drinks without leaving their room.

The 22:00 latest check-in is a practical constraint for anyone on a late flight or a long transfer, particularly from Sabiha Gökçen 31.5 km away. Travellers who value flexibility around arrival time should weigh that limit before choosing this property.
