This is a lovely hotel near Taksim Square. The room we stayed in wasn't very big, but it was very nice and had everything we needed. We had stayed on the other side of Istanbul earlier in our holiday and wanted to stay on this side of the city when we returned. It was an excellent way to see this... More

Stories apart was really a great discovery for me. It is simple, clean, well decorated. Location is excellent and near from the famous taksim square. Although meals are not served in this hotel, it is surrounded by many turkish and western restaurants. All staff are really very friendly and co-operative. I booked the room initially for 2 nights then I... More

We were very staisfied to receive immediate answers to our questions regarding some places along with... More

The hotel has a limited number or rooms, but the whole building has been completely renovated to the highest standards. Most rooms are not very spacious, unless you request a superior room. Even so, they're exceptionally comfortable (huge shower, super comfy beds, air con, etc.) and fully equipped (all sorts of toiletries are available, hair drier, iron, big tv screen,... More

Stratigig¡cally located in Begolyu, a stone's throw from Istiklal Avenue, the Stories Apart Karakol is an excellent choice when visiting Istanbul. The rooms are nicely furnished, not very large but comfortable, and the staff is friendly. We would certainly stay there again More
