Cozy Waterfront Apt. with a Stunning View
Situated right on the Bosporus, this cozy, modern apartment is immersed in spectacular views of the city worthy of Sultans. It’s truly breathtaking to enjoy your morning coffee on a comfortable sofa while gazing at iconic monuments and the ferries cruising along. When you’re ready to head out to explore, the touristic epicenter of Taksim Square, posh streets of Nişantaşı district or the recently modernized hip Karaköy neighborhood are all awaiting to entertain you.
The building is named Samibey, built by and named after my late grandfather Dr. Zülfü Sami Özgen and served as the family’s main residence for over 30 years. This first-floor apartment has recently been completely refurbished with new furniture and equipment for the comfort and pleasure of our guests.
The 90m2 apartment has been re-designed to accommodate a modern open kitchen – living room setting for the purpose of convenience and coziness. The doorway opens to the center of this area. As you enter the space you find the living room and the dining area situated on your right, facing the Bosporus and the kitchen in front, facing the garden. The living room area houses a dinner table, comfortable sofas around a coffee table and a TV with cable. The kitchen area is equipped with new appliances such as stove, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, coffee makers (filter and Turkish), kettle, toaster, pots and pans, plates, cutlery, utensils and basic cooking ingredients. A laundry/utility area also has a washing machine and an iron as well as extra towels.
Two full bathrooms are located on either side of a hallway that leads to the rear of the apartment with a shower in the smaller bathroom and a bathtub in the larger one. Both bathrooms have been modernized for guests’ hygiene and comfort.
All three bedrooms are located towards the rear end of this hallway with one of them boasting a balcony overlooking the garden. One of the bedrooms has a king bed and the other two has double beds all with fresh linens, extra pillows and blankets for those guests that seek added comfort and warmth, as well as ample wardrobe space for heavy packers. All three rooms have brand new A/C units for those hot summer days.
A large communal garden located on the ground floor of the building is available for the pleasure of our guests along with other residents, presenting ample green grass to lie on and an assortment of trees to relax under.

A well-appointed, very comfortable apartment with a wonderful view of the Bosphorus. The location is ideal for easy travel around the city with only a short walk to ferries, tram, funicular to Istiklal and more. Highly recommended. I'll stay here again!
The apartment has a nice layout with bright sunny living space with comfy couches and large dining table. The views of the water are amazing!
Beds are comfy and showers have great water pressure and lots of hot water. The location is so convenient -ferry to Asian side, funicular to taxim and tram line are just a 2 minute walk. Thanks for making our stay so enjoyable!
I gave the property the highest rating. However, there are a few notes that I would like to make:
- problems with the Internet; Internet only works in the dining/living room and does not work in any of the bedrooms. We tried to contact the owners with the problem, but it was never resolved.
- there weren’t enough toilet paper and towels for seven people.

Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
very old outdated unit
misleading information on line about the unit. very old and outdated unit.
The host provided everything that we needed plus additional items. Although the picture on your website of the living room
window looks nice. It is far better with the action on the Bosphorus River and the beauty of the location. It was close to most everything and transportation was easily accessible. The rooms were all good size and plenty of storage area. The host met us before we could check in so we could store our baggage early while we went sightseeing. Very enjoyable for all.
We were a group of 5 women on a long-aniticipated trip and couldn't have been happier with our accommodations. The apartment was clean, roomy, well-situated and had great light. The view every morning was stunning-- directly across the street from a gorgeous mosque with a beautiful view of the water with all kinds of ships passing. We could walk to cafes and the ferry and many different sights. The hosts were extremely responsive and helpful and easy to work with. A big thumbs up from 5 different, picky women! Thanks so much Emir and Tuna!
The view was incredibly beautiful espacialy the mosque.
The best area and location close to all kinds of transportation such as tram, subway and taxi. And a big thanks to the wonderful Owner that made so easy for us to reach him when anything was nedded. Thank you Mr Emir i truly appreciate youre kindness and thanks so much for giving us the chance to stay in youre home it will be always in my heart and it will be missed for sure. 🙏🙏
