Close to both the Anatolian and European sides of Istanbul, this pet-friendly apartment lies in the Kadıköy neighbourhood, renowned for its colourful market and street murals. You'll definitely want to hire a car here – plenty of landmarks and hotspots like Caddebostan beach, the Byzantine Maiden's Tower, Topkapı Palace museum and the Blue Mosque are an easy drive from your doorstep. The location isn't the only thing that makes this home highly practical – with a dedicated desk and self-check-in, we think it's a great choice whether you're in town for business or pleasure.
