Book A Stay

Istanbul, like New York, London and Paris, is one of the world’s great cities. Straddling the Bosphorus strait between the Sea of Marmara and the Black Sea, it, unlike any other city in the world, splits between two continents. With a population of more than 14 million, Istanbul is world’s 6th largest city and it’s skyline, in the business districts beyond Beyo?lu, has enough skyscrapers to resemble Manhattan.

The Old City with its mosques, churches, palaces and narrow streets is beautiful to wander around. To the north, the Golden Horn joins the Bosphorus strait and is surrounded by the sparkling blue waters of the Sea of Marmara which stretches southwards. Across the Golden Horn lies the vibrant entertainment district of Beyo?lu.

In the summer the locals escape to seaside resorts like Bodrum due to the hot and humid climate. This means that the city becomes less crowded while the evening warmth allows you to drink at a roof-top bar or to relax alfresco outside a restaurant. In spring or early autumn, the weather remains warm but not too hot to explore the city on foot. Winters are cold with occasional snow, few crowds and lower prices.

The luxury Avantgarde Taksim Square Hotel, is located about 40 minutes away by road from Istanbul Atatürk International Airport and is in the heart of Istanbul city, within the entertainment district of Beyo?lu. It is only a stone’s throw from the city’s main attractions and the centre of its nightlife, and is close to metro, bus, tram and ferry stations, restaurants, shops, malls and cinemas. It is also only a couple of blocks away from Taksim Square, yet far enough for you to sleep without being disturbed by the bustle.
