Apartment vacation rentals in Bahçeşehir, Başakşehir

An absolutely amazing place to stay! Living room overlooks Galataport and we got to see quite a few large cruise ships. Loved all the resident kitties, one even had three kittens in the courtyard. Air conditioning is a godsend and the fan in the bedroom was perfect. Fair warning, it’s either up or down quite some stairs or a steep hill to get everywhere, but honestly we loved that. A great workout!

Had a fantastic stay! The flat was spotless, stylish, and very comfortable. Everything was exactly as described, and the host was responsive and helpful. Great location too - T1 tram station, 5 minutes on funicular to Taksim square. Highly recommend!

Excellent apartment at a reasonable price. The metro station is right next to the building. The host was very responsive — I really enjoyed my stay!

From the moment we arrived, our stay at AkdInn’s was great. The property was immaculately clean, thoughtfully designed, and equipped with everything we could need. The location couldn’t have been better—close enough to all the attractions yet tucked away in a peaceful area, ensuring a restful retreat after a day of exploring. AkdInn was an exceptional host: responsive and welcoming, Whether you're traveling for business or leisure, AkdInn’s is the perfect home away from home. I highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a good. experience Thank you, AkdInn, for a wonderful stay!

I highly recommend staying at Ugur’s place. From the time we booked, till the end of the stay Ugur was super responsive and helpful. The views are just drop dead gorgeous (floor to ceiling windows overlooking the Bosphorus). The neighborhood feels like you are living and staying like a local and has modern furnishings. Wifi is excellent. You have to be ready to handle stairs but if in reasonably good shape, they are not a problem. Just avoid if uneven stairs are an issue but Istanbul is hilly and any local neighborhood would mean stairs. The best thing is Ugur’s responsiveness: we needed coffee pods, a tap fixed, airport transfer: all was organized in a minute… and shout out to Mohamed who so kindly helped with luggage and many things!

We had an amazing stay in Istanbul! The apartment is beautiful, well-equipped, and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The location is ideal — very close to the Suleymaniye Mosque and within walking distance to the tram, which can take you anywhere. Serhad was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout our stay. Highly recommend.

Very nice view, I recommend

Exceeded my expectation, left us having an absolutely gorgeous time. Outstanding place and amazing host. No complaints at all, just happiness after our stay. Felt like home with gorgeous view at the Bosporus.

Among all the hosts I've met through Airbnb, he was by far the kindest. He allowed me to check in earlier than the scheduled time and told me I could ask for anything I needed during my stay. On my last day, he even treated me to a coffee downstairs. He was like a father figure — such a genuinely good person. The house was very clean and comfortable. I stayed for a total of 7 nights and 8 days, and if I ever return to this area, I will definitely stay here again. Thank you for offering such a lovely place to stay. I sincerely wish you continued health and well-being😊😊

Great stay - flat is right on the heart of Istanbul and was exactly as described. View was stunning and definitely the highlight. Apartment was very well equipped and host was extremely responsive.

Everything about Efkan’s place was perfect. It was a beautiful flat in a wonderful location; the views from the rooftop terraces were spectacular. Efkan could not have been more helpful in welcoming us upon arrival and assisting us throughout our stay - he regularly contacted us to check that everything was okay and gave us some excellent restaurant and cafe recommendations. On one occasion we requested an additional tea towel - a brand new tea towel was delivered to the door within ten minutes! Check in and check out were amazingly smooth. All in all, Efkan’s place is a terrific home in which to relax and from which to explore the magic of Istanbul.

I had an absolutely fantastic experience staying at this apartment! From the moment I arrived, everything exceeded my expectations. The apartment was spotless, beautifully decorated, and full of charm—exactly like the photos, if not better. The location is unbeatable - just a few minutes’ walk from Istiklal Street, Galata Tower, and Taksim Square, yet tucked away on a quiet street that made it feel peaceful and safe. The host was incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout my stay - quick to respond, full of local tips, and even left thoughtful touches like bottled water,. The Wi-Fi was fast, the bed was super comfortable, and the air conditioning worked great (which was a lifesaver in the summer heat).

Reyhan's accommodation fully participated in making our city tour perfect! Ideally located in old Istanbul, we were able to easily go back and forth between the places to visit and it, enjoy the surrounding restaurants (from the very good breakfast just at the foot of the accommodation to the aperitif in the vegetated courtyard of the Mansions a little further), as well as consider the majority of our trips on foot (to Taksim Square via the Galata bridge). Cozy, bright, very clean, well-equipped and spacious, it allowed us to rest when we needed it. And the cherry on top, the terrace offers one of the best views, with, at an equal distance, Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. To be contemplated without moderation from sunrise to sunset without having to share this point of view with a crowd. In short, an address that we will recommend and certainly share with our loved ones in the months ahead!

I have nothing but amazing things to say about the place, the location and the host! She was very friendly and very accommodating to our check in and out times. The location is great, less than a 5 minute walk to Galata tower. Thank you for such a great stay!

Anastasia and the team were extremely efficient with responding to any questions and very helpful with recommendations. The apartment was lovely and had many restaurants, cafes and shops nearby. It was easy to travel by bus and tram to all the tourist spots. I would thoroughly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Istanbul.

It's a great house and we were hosted in one of the most beautiful locations on the island. Waking up to the magnificent view from the window every day was also enjoyable. Our house was very clean like a museum and everything we needed was inside. We were really satisfied and I would recommend it to everyone. Our host contacted us immediately and helped us with everything.

I thank Ms. Lora for her hospitality and for being very helpful, you can easily choose it

Two bedroom/two full bath apartment in the middle of the action - 7 min walk to the grand bazaar. The owner's uncle meets you to let you in and is very responsive if you need anything. The area is quite busy and full of traffic, but that is Istanbul. The apartment is on the 5th floor and the elevator is a little small but it dose the trick. Not luxury but very comfortable and very clean.

Great location and communication from host. Would definitely stay again.

I stayed here for 6 weeks while I worked at a hospital nearby. The place is in a great location, with lots of cafes restaurants nearby. The house itself although quite small is lovely, cosy and clean. The view is amazing and the home was very well equipped for short term stays. I also felt very safe staying there as a solo female, security was great. Mehmet Selim was also very attentive and responsive. 10/10

This is an amazing place, located very near Taksim Square with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The apartment is beautiful. It has big rooms and fully renovated bathrooms. There is also a big terrace and a well equipped kitchen. The host is very friendly and responsive. The instructions to check in are clear. I couldn’t find anything negative. Highly recommended.

all in all it was quite okay, only the location was very noisy and unfavorable to public transport so that every time a short distance to the bus station had to be made by taxi. the window could hardly be opened because it was really very noisy outside alone the air conditioning of the house. the stove could not be used because it was broken so that every time food had to be ordered or also taken along The dryer was extremely linty and was not clean. There was still old laundry in the washing machine and it smelled, so these two devices could not be used, but were actually very important to us and the decisive factor that we did not book a hotel room but an apartment. There is nothing to do in the area, there were no options except a restaurant which did not appeal to us.

Wonderful Appartment, location, amenities - restaurant and supermarket and gym and pool facilities but what makes it really stand out are the caretakers of the Appartment making you feel right at home ! We will definitely come again !

I loved this place a lot! The owner was always super friendly and nice, trying to help me with all the little issues that we had. But everything else was just amazing. The building is pretty old, so you might get some WiFi issues sometimes, but it’s super easy fixable, he will explain what you gotta do, just reach out to him. Thank you for having us! I will definitely get back there next time when I’m in Istanbul!
