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.
Where XALİLA HOSTEL & CAFE sits
XALİLA HOSTEL & CAFE, MEN's ROOM, BEST IN ISTANBUL is a hostel on Yağhane Sokak in Beyoğlu, Istanbul, postcode 34421.
Other straight-line distances: Galata Tower about 1.4 km, Dolmabahçe Palace about 1.7 km, Topkapı Palace about 2.7 km, Hagia Sophia about 3.2 km and Sultan Ahmed Mosque about 3.6 km. Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is about 31.6 km away, in a straight line.
Three dorms, all 46 m² with street views
The hostel has three room types, and all of them are 46 m² dormitories with a street view. The Female Dormitory Room and the 8-Bed Male Dormitory Room each have 8 bunk beds and sleep up to 8; the difference between them is who they are for, not their size or layout.
The 8-Bed Female Dormitory Room is the odd one out. Despite its name, it has 2 bunk beds and sleeps up to 2, in the same 46 m² and with the same street view as the larger dorms. A traveller booking it should expect a much emptier room than the name suggests, and a couple or two friends sharing may find it a better fit than a full dorm.
| Room type | Size | Beds | Sleeps | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8-Bed Female Dormitory Room | 46 m² | 2 bunk beds | up to 2 | street view |
| Female Dormitory Room | 46 m² | 8 bunk beds | up to 8 | street view |
| 8-Bed Male Dormitory Room | 46 m² | 8 bunk beds | up to 8 | street view |
What the hostel offers
This is backpacker accommodation, not a hotel: the rooms are dormitories and the setting is built around shared use rather than private units.
Beyond that, the hostel's facilities cover the practical side of a dormitory stay, including security and around-the-clock front-desk cover. Nothing in what the hostel offers suggests a pool, a restaurant of its own or other resort-style amenities; a traveller expecting those would not find them here.
Check-in, check-out and house rules
Check-in is from 13:00 and check-out until 14:00.
Two restrictions matter when choosing this hostel: children are not allowed, and pets are not allowed. It is an adults-only booking in practice, set by policy rather than by the room types alone.
Who it suits and who it does not
The hostel suits solo travellers and small groups who want dormitory accommodation close to Taksim Square, with the choice of a female-only or male-only room, and the option of a quieter two-bed female dorm at the same size. The paid shuttle service helps those arriving from or heading to the airport, about 31.6 km away in a straight line.
It does not suit families, since children are not allowed, and it does not suit anyone travelling with a pet. Nor does it suit a traveller who wants a private room: every room type here is a dormitory, and the two larger ones sleep up to 8 people each.
