Guest Reviews

• Abe (10/5): Small but nice and clean. The owner responded very quickly for the messages. - They are well taken care of. There are 2shower rooms. Both of them are small but it has place to put things. The owner is very clean person and the response for messages are very quick. The people who stay there were also very nice, I had good time there. If you have big suitcases,I suggest you to go through the road next to the street of the hostel.
• Manuela (9/5): Für den Preis ein sehr gutes Hostel. - Sie liegt sehr zentral in Istanbul, nicht weit weg von der Metro Station. Man kann gut hinlaufen. Von der Metro Station ist es nicht weit bis zu den Hauptsehenswürdigkeiten in Istanbul. Auch hat es im Umkreis viele Restaurants. Das Personal ist sehr nett und das Hostel sauber. Habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt. -
• Alexis (10/5): - Very great week spent here, well welcomed by Samy! I'll advise anyone to go there.
• Mumtaz (8/5): Nice - Good Nothing

• Viktoria (5/5): -
• Luzia (9/5): - The host is super helpful, professional and responds very quickly to all sort of questions and infos needed. I did not use the kitchen much but it seems to be well equipped and very clean. The outside space is cosy and a good spot to catch up with other travellers. The location is really close to Taksim Square, restaurants and supermarkets. I recommemd the place. --
• Shohista (9/5): First time ever in hostel, and I loved it! Staff is so kind and always helpful, place is clean, location is also comfort -
• Shohista (9/5): -
• Anzhela (1/5): - Nothing. Everything. Rooms do not close, sheets are not fresh, rooms are really very tiny—only one person may be standing there. Toilet is outside. The size of a shower is a little over 1 square meter. They say they have a terrace— they call by this word a lousy 4 square meter spot on a backyard, which looks like a village yard for cattle. And this is not only my opinion—all poor people who bought into reviews shared it.
• Jorrit (8/5): A little wooden gem in the center of Istanbul! - Great location and fantastic staff! Had a great time in this beautiful wooden hostel, just make sure to book a room with nice guests! The location and facilities where excellent!

Οι ιδιοκτήτες ευγενικοί, πρόσχαροιμ με πολύ καλή διάθεση και προτάσεις για την καλύτερη δυνατή διαμονή.... Προτείνω ανεπιφύλακτα!!! Οκ

• Liliana (6/5): - La ubicación , está cerca de la plaza Taxin y está rodeado de muchos restaurantes . Es fácil llegar desde la parada del autobús desde y hacia el aeropuerto Havabus . Prácticamente solo estuve unas horas , lo cogí x ubicación , los baños estaban muy sucios , la habitación donde dormí no estaba muy limpia y las almohadas olían mal . Si es solo para pasar la noche como fue mi caso , pues creo que está bien , soy consciente que el precio era muy barato y el encargado muy amable .
• Anna (10/5): - A very nice, clean hostel. I slept well in a 4-bed female dorm. Thanks to the staff for the friendly welcome. I'll be back next time for sure!
• Olivia (10/5): -
• Irfan (6/5): - The drainage of the washroom was blocked. size if the personal locker was too small. it might be a cage under the bed .
• 芒 (10/5): It was a great experience for me to stay there for four days, I will come back again! - Owner is super nice and friendly, always there to help Nothing

• Hanaa (10/5): Fantastic Stay at Taksim History Wooden Hostel! - I had an amazing experience at Taksim History Wooden Hostel—it’s truly a gem in the heart of Istanbul. The place is nice and clean, with comfortable beds that made for the best sleep after long days exploring the city. But the real highlight? The manager Sabih and his lovely wife—they’re incredibly warm, helpful, and go above and beyond to make you feel at home. Their personal touch turned a good stay into an unforgettable one. Highly recommend!
• salib (10/5): -
• Mohammed Ali (5/5): - Very good in value but bit congested, for single is ok without heavy luggage. Bit uphill but overall good in cheap price
• Aniq Ur (9/5): -
• Amir (7/5): for one night is very good - Location is perfekt. polite staff.
• Miku (9/5): - タクシム広場から割とすぐ近くにある。オーナーが親切で対応が柔軟だった。部屋も清潔に保たれていて心地よかった。仕方ないけどタクシムエリアは坂が多かった。
• xiao (9/5): 安全，干净，可以更好 - 干净，尤其是小厨房（在前台那里）很干净没有异味。虽然小但是简单的加热喝茶很舒心。我懒得做饭所以没用过炉灶不知道方便与否，但是真的很干净，没有异味，非常棒。洁癖的人会感觉舒服。安全，闲杂人等没有密码进不去。 淋浴间大点就好了，有些发霉的味道，建议门后安一个塑料帘子不然衣服都湿了，可以更加分。厕所在后面院子里所以不担心尴尬。洗澡水会忽冷忽热，差点被烫伤。大家用的时候小心一些洗脸的时候不要直接冲到面部。免得水突然很烫。别的没什么。床位有帘子和灯的话当然更专业一些会更好。都是一些希望更好的建议，不然我也不会给9分。因为真的感觉小楼蛮干净安全。
• Nicolas (8/5): A good stay, really nice staff guy. - I loved its character. Very local. The bathrooms were not bad, but could’ve been in better shape. An upgrade would be very beneficial
• Omerjan (1/5): - Stuff is good just
• Nalinee (8/5): -
• Chingiz (10/5): В данном хостеле все понравилось , добрый персонал, чисто все. - Хозяин данного хостела очень доброжелательный и открытый👍🏼
• Youhui (10/5): 信价比高。住了两晚上铺都没有人，我自己独享一个房间。 - 位置 卫生间太小了。隔音不好。
• Fouzia (10/5): Super séjour - Idéalement localisé, à 5 mns de la place Taskim, du métro, et du bus shuttle pour l’aéroport, cette auberge de jeunesse très sympathique et pratique est idéal pour un séjour court ou long. Le propriétaire est super sympa, il répond a toute les questions et vous guidera le mieux possible. Calme, propre, avec une petite cuisine. Le rapport qualité/ prix est excellent. rien

• Lea (10/5): - Really nice staff, good location and comfortable

• HsinYu (10/5): Great place to stay for budget travel or leisure - Great location affordable price. Helpful stuff member and cozy environment.
• HsinYu (10/5): Awesome place for solo travellers. Don’t hesitate to visit - Awesome place to stay, nice cozy and clean. Love their hot shower and heater
• LAMRINI (9/5): - I had a wonderful stay at this hostel in Istanbul. The location was perfect, close to transportation and many beautiful places around the city. The hostel was clean, comfortable, and very well organized, which made my trip even more enjoyable. A special thank you to the owner for his kindness and support. He was very helpful from the beginning, always responsive and ready to assist me. His hospitality truly made me feel welcome and safe during my stay in Istanbul. I highly recommend this hostel to anyone visiting Istanbul.

• jonghan (7/5): -
• Flavia (10/5): - Ho adorato questo ostello fin dal primo momento, grazie alla gentilezza dello staff, alla posizione strategica e al grande comfort che offre. La struttura si trova in un punto perfetto ed è dotata di una veranda accogliente e di una cucina completa di tutte le stoviglie necessarie. Inoltre, lo staff mette a disposizione anche un telo doccia, un’attenzione davvero apprezzata. Gli ambienti sono puliti e curati, e l’atmosfera è così familiare che ci si sente subito a casa. Anche grazie a questo soggiorno, la mia esperienza a Istanbul è stata ancora più spettacolare. Prenoterò sicuramente qui ogni volta che tornerò a Istanbul (spero davvero molte!). Super consigliato!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🫶 Semplicemente stupendo
• Ilmira (8/5): -
• baoyu (9/5): -
• Frank (9/5): - Very clean and comfortable bed and room. Ablutions were adequate, and the hostel provided a kitchen and a separate seating area to relax and eat/drink. Past recent reviews were correct. A nice inexpensive hostel. Old reviews, two or more years past did not do the present owner or present staff justice. They should be disregarded completely. I'll use this hostel again when in Istanbul.
• Nell (10/5): Super! - Tout était très bien. Personnel agréable, parle anglais, fournit serviette, cadenas, et clé pour les casiers. Locaux propres et dortoir nettoyé après le départ de chaque personne. Bien placé, à moins de 10 min à pied du métro Taksim. Merci! rien

• Mahalia (7/5): Perfect - The owner is very kind, shower and cooking utensils available: kettle, microwave, hob and fridge. The wifi works well, the beds are comfortable and the location is great. The rooms and common areas are small, there is no real bathroom, the shower and kitchen are in the reception. It is better to get along well with your bed neighbors.

• Vladimir (5/5): -
• Faraz (10/5): -
• Zhaoyao (7/5): A good option for a budget stay. - The location is great, in the city center, close to many restaurants and views. The stuff is friendly and helpful. The room for 8 males is quite packed, and the bathroom and toilet however were not satisfying. There was construction work at morning during my stay, but I guess there is little the hostel could do.
• MARIA (2/5): -
• Tony (8/5): -
• MENGYUAN (10/5): Very nice - The location is close to Taksim MRT station, just a 5-minute walk away. There's also a BIM supermarket nearby. The owner is very nice. I stayed here for 3 days and it was great value for money.
• Irmak (7/5): - ........ geht schon Bazı eksikleri vardi
• ramata bella (4/5): - L'emplacement et le personnel Malheureusement, j'ai du changer d'hôtel car les portes ne se ferment pas et la première nuit, j'ai été réveillée par une dame inconnue de l'hôtel. Ma chambre étant au rez-de-chaussée, certains clients ne respectant pas les consignes, ont fait beaucoup de bruit au milieu de la nuit, c'était pénible. Le réceptionniste m'a changé de chambre pour la 2e nuit mais l'incident avec la dame m'a dérangé et j'ai du trouver une autre solution par moi meme en changeant d'hôtel, donc plus de frais pour moi. Il faut vraiment veiller à la sécurité et au bien-être des clients qui paient pour un service. C'est vraiment dommage car les réceptionnistes étaient gentils et à l'écoute mais je fais ce commentaire en espérant que ce problème d'accès à l'hôtel sera réglé afin d'éviter ce genre d'incidents a l'avenir.

• Yuka (7/5): Thank you - The location is close to Taksim square so you can easily get transport from there. It’s at the bottom of the hill but I liked that it was surrounded by very cute historical buildings. It was good value for money for one night stay and the owner was kind . The shower was hot and good pressure , wifi was also good Only one shower and toilet for the whole hostel, which was a bit unusual and inconvenient. The common area was small and the room was also a bit squeezed but good enough for a short stay
• Shubhi (9/5): Value for money - The room is very clean and comfortable at a budget price. Location is a little downhill but manageable. They also provide free lockers and luggage storage after checkout
• santos (6/5): - Simpatia do funcionário. Shower e casa de banho com sensação de pouca privacidade e dormitório sem chave.
• Céleste (7/5): - Very kind staff, good location, confortable. Not much space in the rooms, noisy, too warm.
• Freweini (9/5): - Perfect location and very very nice owner.
• عمر (10/5): - Una experiencia maravillosa en este hotel! La recepción fue muy cálida y amable, y el personal siempre dispuesto a ayudar y atento a cada detalle para asegurar la comodidad de los huéspedes. La habitación estaba limpia y ordenada, y el servicio excelente en todos los aspectos. Realmente me sentí bienvenido/a y cuidado/a. Recomiendo este lugar a quienes buscan una experiencia cómoda y agradable.
• Anatolij Matiusinskij (10/5): - I always stay here with other people in the same room. That way You always make new international friends, new life stories and interesting evening time spending. The owner is very friendly and kind, the place is located very close to metro, buses, also shops like bim, a101, cheap places to eat local food, everything is reachable in a few minutes. Not first time staying here and for sure will come back soon. Everything was perfect for me.

• Youngok (6/5): 가성비 좋고, 교통,위치 좋아요. -
• Gernot (10/5): - Alles sehr gut geklappt, sehr sauber und sehr zu empfehlen
• Minhee (4/5): 별로 - 공항버스랑 가까운편. 공항버스랑 가까워서 정했는데 언덕아래 있어서 케리어 끌고 왔다갔다할때 힘들어요. 화장실 앞이 담배피는 공간인데 항상 누군가 화장실 앞에서 담배를 피고 있어요. 욕실은 공용부엌에 있어요. 씻고 싸기 불편해요. 바로앞이 길이라 시끄러워서 일찍자기 힘들어요.
