How we score

Each score is worked out by code from the facts this page shows, never from guests’ ratings or a writer’s opinion, and is given as 1 to 5 dots.

Near the sights: how close the nearest listed sight is, and how many are within 1 km. Rooms: the room sizes we show and how many types there are. Facilities: how many kinds the hotel lists (dining, pool or spa, fitness, front desk services, comfort and access). Wellness: spa, hammam, sauna, steam room, pools, gym and massage.

A score is left out when the hotel’s facts are too few to judge it.

The hostel stands on Feridiye Caddesi, postcode 34447, about 0.6 km from Taksim Square in a straight line. Dolmabahçe Palace is about 1.7 km away and Galata Tower about 1.8 km.

Five dormitory room types and a 15 m² garden-view double

Five of the six room types are dormitory beds: each booking covers one twin bed in a shared room and sleeps one. The choice is between female-only, male-only and mixed rooms, and the rooms differ in size. The Bed in Male Dormitory Room is the largest at 20 m²; the Bed in 4-Bed Female Dormitory Room is 15 m²; the Bunk Bed in Female Dormitory Room, the Bunk Bed in Male Dormitory Room and the Single Bed in Mixed Dormitory Room are each 10 m².

The one private option is the Deluxe Double or Twin Room: 15 m², sleeping up to 2, with a garden view. Note that its two beds are bunk beds, so it suits two travellers who want a room of their own rather than a couple expecting a standard double bed.

A paid airport shuttle, 31.6 km from Istanbul Airport

This is backpacker accommodation, not a hotel: the facilities cover the practical side of a stay. The hostel runs a paid airport shuttle, which matters given that Istanbul Airport is about 31.6 km away in a straight line.

Check-in, children and pets

Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out until 12:00. Children are not allowed, and pets are not allowed either. This makes the hostel an adults-only choice by rule rather than by positioning.

Who it suits and who it does not

Two friends or a couple wanting privacy can take the Deluxe Double or Twin Room, though its bunk beds are worth noting before choosing it.

It does not suit families, since children are not allowed, nor anyone travelling with a pet. Nor does it suit a traveller expecting hotel services, dining or leisure facilities on the premises.
