Guest Reviews
- Shawn Michelle (10/5): Like staying with a close friend - I loved my stay at the White Swan. Sultan was so welcoming and warm, it felt like staying with an old friend. It was a clean, spacious and comfortable room, conveniently located and quiet, and Sultan was so helpful and always available to answer any questions or offer advice. I was a solo female traveler and I felt perfectly safe here. Will definitely return next time I’m in Istanbul.
- Stanislav (10/5): Realy recommend this place! Awesome! - Really nice host, Real good service, mood and state of room and halls. Good and stable wifi connection. It was a plesure to see Ruijie as a network devices. Noise of fridge, but it can be switched off. Also, the street is quite noisy. But it is not host's issue, just location.
The most disappointment inside the room: The installation of fire-alarm what was drilled barbarian way across the decorated celling.
- Manfred (10/5): sehr zu empfehlen - Die Zimmer waren sowohl geschmackvoll als auch zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Es gab einen Balkon. /
- Alessia (10/5): - Everything was perfect! I really enjoyed staying in this beautiful hotel. The room is cozy and well equipped, with a really comfortable bed.
The host, Sultana, is really welcoming, too! She upgraded my room, and I really appreciated this.
- Guglielmo (7/5): -
- Paul (9/5): - Une attention particulière est donnée à ce que les lieux soient agréables et propres, ça se sent et c est très agréable
Quartier sympa dans son jus
Arrivée autonome en pleine nuit : simple avec les indications Quartier un peu bruyant parfois aux pleines heures du jour (travaux dans le quartier) mais ça gêne pas la nuit.
- Ineke (8/5): -
- yi (8/5): - Friendly staff, explained everything upon arrival. The apartment is a bit old but very clean.
- Bianca (8/5): -
- Lykotrafitis (10/5): -
- Dorina (10/5): Wonderful hotel - Beautiful room, great location, comfortable and clean, lovely host, highly recommended!
- Mikhail (10/5): - Большинство отзывов, оставленных об отеле соотвествует действительности, поэтому много писать нет смысла.. Хороший отель, выполненный в турецком стиле. Самое главное - все очень чисто и аккуратно. Хорошее качественное постельное белье. Есть лифт. Заехали без проблем, хозяйка всегда на связи. Про мнения о районе с сомнительными личностями, скорее, это преувеличение. Видели поздно вечером таких парней, даже поговорили- обычные люди, коих полно вокруг Таксима. Зато здесь тихо, никтот не сигналить и не кричит.
- Kim Hui (8/5): - Friendly owner Sultana provides Spacious and clean apartment unit. Few groceries nearby. Walking distance to Taksim square. Lots of shopping, Atm and restaurants in Taksim Meydani. Unit situated in Taksim hilly area. Have to walk up the hill to reach main road. Roads leading to unit is narrow. Fit for one car.
- Elena Tican (10/5): - Everything was excellent. We'll come again & definitely recommend to our friends.
- Murtada (10/5): Exceptional stay - The owner, sultana, was very caring, sweet and nice.
They cleaned the room every day, with new towels and bedsheets and the service was amazing - we would wake up late and somehow they would still be able to do the room for us. The room was very comfortable and quite spacious for the price. The roads and the outside might scare you and in the beginning they may feel a bit unsafe, but I can reassure you that the location is the best, it’s just 10 minutes walk from taksim and istiklal street, the neighborhood is lovely and there’s a mini market on the same street with a very nice owner. Overall the stay was perfect and I wouldn’t change a thing, I highly recommend.
I came with my boyfriend an we are both beyond grateful for our stay.
- Liza (10/5): - The rooms were comfy, clean and tastefully furnished. Sultan is a great host and we absolutely enjoyed our stay. Can't think of anything.
- Diana (10/5): - Attentive staff, clean and cozy hotel, comfortable beds. We stayed in December, and the rooms had good heating. The hotel is close to the center, but quiet and peaceful at night. I recommend it.
- Anil Kumar (10/5): -
- Julia (10/5): The best host ever! - The host is just amazing. She let us choose the room as she had 2 available, she was super helpful with all our questions and arranged for me the wi fi connection (as I needed to work) to a different hotel when the existing internet provider had some disruption.
The room was lovely, cozy, big enough, with everything that one can require during the stay. Location is great, lots of tourist attractions including Istiklal are just around the corner. Can’t even mention anything as it was great.
- Elke Vornhagen (10/5): - Süßes kleines Hotel in guter Lage. Zimmer sind schön und sauber. Sultana hat uns herzlich begrüßt und viele gute Tipps gegeben. Wir waren begeistert und kommen bestimmt wieder.
- Sundeep (10/5): - Great location, walking distance from multiple tourist locations.
- Naziha (10/5): - Ich habe mich während meines 11-tägigen Aufenthalts in diesem Hotel von Anfang an richtig wohlgefühlt.
Schon bei der Ankunft wurde ich herzlich von Sultana empfangen und hatte sofort das Gefühl, willkommen zu sein.
Die Atmosphäre ist entspannt, warm und sehr angenehm.
Mein Zimmer war sehr sauber, gemütlich und perfekt für einen längeren Aufenthalt und sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet.
Besonders schön war der persönliche Umgang und die Herzlichkeit der Gastgeberin.
Sultana war immer sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und jederzeit ansprechbar.
Man merkt sofort, dass ihr das Wohl der Gäste wirklich sehr wichtig ist.
Ich habe mich hier wie zu Hause gefühlt.
Auch der Service insgesamt war unkompliziert und sehr angenehm.
Die Lage der Unterkunft ist super und vieles ist schnell erreichbar.
Trotzdem kann man hier wunderbar zur Ruhe kommen.
Während meines gesamten Aufenthalts habe ich mich sicher und gut aufgehoben gefühlt.
Viele kleine Aufmerksamkeiten haben den Aufenthalt besonders gemacht.
Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis passt absolut.
Ich werde und würde jederzeit wiederkommen und kann diese Unterkunft von Herzen weiterempfehlen.
Lieben Dank Sultana für eine unvergessliche erholsame Zeit im wunderschönen Istanbul💗🌸
- Chiraz (8/5): -
- ZAUR (10/5): - Мне понравилась чистота .и близость к таксим .на первом этаже есть очень интересная комната ,там уютно.
- Ксения (10/5): - Каждый день уборка, супер чистое белье и белые полотенца. Уютное и спокойное место. В пешей доступности 10 минут, площадь Таксим и улица Истикляль, автобусные остановки и метро
- song (9/5): -
- Emrkaan (10/5): - During my seven-day stay in Istanbul, this hotel exceeded my expectations with the quality and tranquility it offered.
Its location is highly advantageous in terms of transportation, yet it still provides a peaceful environment away from the city’s stress.
The owner, Ms. Sultan, stands out with her elegance, attentiveness, and professional approach. The room’s decoration, cleanliness, and especially the high comfort of the bed were impeccable.
I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking comfort, safety, and high-quality service. It will definitely be my choice again on my next visit to Istanbul
- Ilya (10/5): - Очень атмосферное место и номера в турецком стиле. Рядом популярная улица Истикляль, метро 1 мин до автобусной остановки с которой можно поехать куда угодно. Много хороших бюджетных заведений в паре мин доступности
- Sahand (10/5): -
- Jean-Mary (10/5): une très belle surprise tant par l'accueil, le logement et la ville d'Istanbul ! - L'accueil très chaleureux de Sultanat, une femme souriante, toujours disponible pour rendre service ou donner des informations pertinentes. notre logement était très confortable, chaleureux ; une bouilloire avec du café ou du thé, une salle de bains bien équipée et fonctionnelle. J'étais venu avec des boules quies, c'était pas nécessaire, silencieux la nuit et réveil avec la 1ère prière de la journée. L'emplacement est idéal, à 2 mn de la place Taksim où l'on a le métro, le funiculaire & même le tramway : à coté du logement, des petites "snacks" où l'on peut bien déjeuner & pas chers, même des baklavas qu'on a ramené en France, excellent & 10* moins chers que dans les dutyFree de l'aéroport ! rien ! si notre séjour était trop court 😁
- Sahand (10/5): - I had an exceptional stay at The White Swan Suites Beyoğlu — so good, in fact, that I ended up extending my stay for three more days. That alone should say a lot.
From the moment I arrived, I felt genuinely welcomed. The location is ideal: only a short walk from İstiklal Avenue and Taksim Square.
I travel frequently, and the level of cleanliness here truly stands out. Everything felt fresh, well-maintained, and thoughtfully prepared, giving the room a warm, home-like atmosphere.
There was a very small issue with the curtain in the first room they offered, and the way they handled it was impressive. Instead of making it complicated, they immediately upgraded me without hesitation. It was professional, smooth, and considerate — something you rarely see.
And the biggest highlight: Mrs. Sultana. She is one of the kindest and most caring hosts I have ever met. Warm, helpful, always smiling, and genuinely dedicated to her guests’ comfort. Her hospitality alone makes this place unforgettable.
With its perfect location, outstanding cleanliness, comfortable rooms, and the kind of personal attention that you don’t often find, the value for money is excellent. I enjoyed my stay so much that extending it felt like the most natural decision and will absolutely return even on my next trip to Istanbul.
- Ozgur (10/5): An Exceptional Experience - The 9-night stay my partner and I had here was truly topped off by incredibly attentive service. First and foremost, I must emphasize that this is the first time we have ever witnessed our room in a boutique hotel being meticulously cleaned every single day. This is genuinely commendable.
The hotel offers great flexibility regarding check-in and check-out times; you can easily come and go as you please. Although the location might seem close to Tarlabasi, the street where the hotel is situated is actually very safe and quiet. Every day, both during the day and night, we could effortlessly walk to Istiklal Street, Nevizade, Cihangir, Galata, Karakoy, Asmalımescit, and Pera. Being able to reach Istiklal in just 4-5 minutes on foot is a huge plus. It is very close to entertainment venues, restaurants, and cafes. Furthermore, the two small grocery stores (bakkal) on the hotel's street are run by very friendly people.
If you choose to stay in, the comfortable climate control (heating in winter, AC in summer) is perfect for enjoying the room all day. You can order food and simply relax in your room, which is decorated with details that make you feel the spirit of Beyoglu and evoke the atmosphere of wonderful old movies.
The entire team, especially Mrs. Sultan and her assistant, are kind, highly attentive, and genuinely eager to assist you instantly. We thank them for this wonderful stay. White Swan Boutique hote is highly recommended for anyone looking to stay in Beyoglu area.
- Gabriela (10/5): - Krásné, maximálně čisté a voňavé ubytování, kde jsem se cítila jako doma.
Byla jsem zde deset dnů samotná žena a i přes počáteční obavy z lokality jsem se zde cítila bezpečně.
- Vincent (8/5): - Jolie petite pension de famille bien tenue
Séjour très agréable
- Jorge (8/5): -
- Clara (8/5): Schönes zentral gelegenes Hotel - - Gute Lage, wir sind über den SAW-Airport gekommen, konnten mit dem HAVABUS bequem zum Taximplatz fahren und von dort aus waren es ca. 15 Minuten zu Fuß
- Sehr netter Vertreter der Inhaberin, welcher uns gute Tipps für die Stadt gegeben hat
- kleiner Lebensmittelladen direkt die Straße hoch
- Tee und Kaffee auf dem Zimmer - sehr hellhörig, sowohl hinsichtlich der anderen Hotelzimmer, als auch zur Straße hin, was vermutlich in den meisten Häusern in Istanbul so ist. Da haben Ohrstöpsel gut geholfen
- LIUDMILA (8/5): - Хозяйка хорошая, отзывчивая. Чистота идеальная. В номере есть всё, что необходимо. Номер маленький, но уютный. Кровать шикарная. Белоснежное бельё и полотенца. Во время принятия душа вода вытекала из-под двери душевой.
Вид из окна.
- Petra (7/5): Basic no nonsense appartement voor Citytrip - In een appartement toch altijd iets comfortabeler dan een htl het was wel netjes en schoon en iedere dag werd de kamer weer op orde gebracht. top! Prima bed! Heerlijk geslapen Complex ligt behoorlijk centraal maar wel in een verpauperde wijk in verbouwing. Er staan diverse foto’s op en uiteindelijk kregen we een ander app dan verwacht. De kitchenette mag je niet zo noemen.. het is een wasbak met kraan, een waterkoker en in een lade vonden we nog wat bestek en nog 2 borden…. Erg summier.
De badkamer is netjes qua tegelwerk maar de handdouche ophanging is kapot, er is maar 1 handdoek haakje en de kraan van de wasbak spuit alle kanten op, kleine issues die redelijk snel gefixt kunnen worden en toch het gebruik veraangenamen. Ennneh: het balkon… nou dat was een sta-balkon, meer was t niet (ziet er op de foto’s ook anders uit)
- Hicham (10/5): - I had such a lovely stay at this hotel. The lady who owns it is incredibly kind, caring, and welcoming — she treats guests like family and always has a warm smile. You can really feel that she puts her heart into everything she does.
It’s a cozy place with a wonderful atmosphere. I truly appreciated her kindness and would love to come back again.
- Jecv86 (10/5): - A Wonderful Stay — Thank You, Sultana!
We arrived in Istanbul around 6am, and Sultana arranged everything for us, to have a place to sleep, later welcomed us with such kindness and warmth. Since there was availability, she even upgraded us to a better room — such a thoughtful gesture! The room was spacious, cosy, and spotless, and the hotel’s location couldn’t be better — close to everything, yet peaceful.
Sultana was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay, always making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. We truly appreciated her hospitality and genuine care.
We’d love to come back, not only to stay here again but also to see the other hotels she’s refurbishing nearby. Highly recommended!
- Abdullah (1/5): A warm welcome turned into an uncomfortable stay due to intrusive and exploitative behavior. - On the positive side, the location is good and close to the city center (though on a hill), and cleanliness was acceptable. Ms. Sultana welcomed me very warmly and even helped carry my luggage to the room. Her hospitality at first felt genuinely kind, making it feel more like a family home than a hotel. My experience at The White Swan Suites Beyoğlu was negative despite the warm start. Ms. Sultana welcomed me very kindly and helped me carry my luggage to the room. However, over time, she became overly involved in my stay and made me feel a lack of privacy. She was constantly present near the entrance, often watching from the balcony, which was uncomfortable.
The next day, when my friend came to visit (and my booking was for three people), she refused to let him in unless I paid an extra 50 euros — something completely unreasonable. Unfortunately, her behavior felt exploitative rather than professional.
Cleanliness was acceptable and the location is on a hill but close to amenities. However, due to the intrusive and exploitative attitude, I would not stay there again.
- Kompselis (10/5): -
- Otar Kiria (9/5): Go for it! Ideal for 7-10 day stays. - The Host Mrs. Sultana, she is just magical person with positive and happy surprises very frequently. Strongly recommend. The room we booked through Booking.com was not available, but we were settled in the upgraded room for a half of stay.
- Marcin (10/5): - the owner of the hotel is a wonderful person
- Christian (9/5): Tolles Hotel prima Mitarbeiter gute Lage sehr empfehlenswert. - Sehr sauber . Rezeption sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Immer wieder gerne.
- Philipp (10/5): - Sultan was a great host and warmly welcomed us. The apartment is located very close to the center around Taksim square but still in a quiet street.
Everything was clean and we really enjoyed our stay here.
- Lisia (10/5): - Super Lage, zentral und trotzdem ruhig, stilvolle Inneneinrichtung, gut und modern ausgestattet, sehr sauber und einladend. Wir wurden äusserst herzlich empfangen und fühlten uns rundum wohl und willkommen.
- John (9/5): - Sultana was very friendly and a wonderful host
- Atmaca (10/5): Super - Alles super und sehr sauber. Ab jetzt mein lieblings hotel in istanbul Preis leistung absolut perfekt.
- Павел Черкасов (10/5): -
- Aleksei (8/5): - Хороший выбор за свою цену для тех, кому хочется жить рядом с Таксимом. Кровать большая и удобная, интернет быстрый и стабильный, кондиционер хорошо работает, хорошая ванная комната. В номере есть чайник и столовые приборы, так что есть возможность начинать день с кофе прямо в отеле. Также есть холодильник. Хозяйка очень дружелюбная и приятная.
- saadaoui (10/5): -
- Martin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Patricia (10/5): Exceptional - Sultana is such an amazing host. She is sweet, helpful and kind. I had the bottom room and the bed was comfortable and the accommodation is cozy. I loved everything about my stay. There is great access to transportation and night life. Thank you Sultana. I hope to meet you again.
- Maria (10/5): Excellent location, premises and host - The location is excellent! very close to Istiklal st. and transportation to Sultanahmet is very easy by bus!
Sultana, the host, is very friendly and ready to provide any help you need!
The interior is decorated very carefully and traditionally. n/a

- Otero (8/5): Good stay if you travel in a budget, be aware of location. - Amazing host. Was the best of the experience; hotel room was impecable. The location, very bad location for getting there in taxi and coming at night, since it is very close to a red area where there are homeless people, and erotic stores, dirty streets.
- Oliver (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lorenzo (6/5): Ok , but I won't be back - Price not too bad Smell of cigarettes a bit everywhere . The hotel was close to the plaza from on side , but from the other side was a very dangerous neighbourhood.
Better from photos than from the reality
- Ferhat (10/5): Wonderful! - The White Swan hotel in Taksim is truly a hidden gem! The owner, Ms. Sultan, is a wonderful person who creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making you feel right at home. The vibe is cozy and familiar, and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I’ll definitely be coming back!
- Maher (5/5): bad neighborhood - location is so bad... Old and unsafe neighborhood. had to walk up hells to reach Taksim square and other surrounding areas.
- Yuriy (10/5): Exceptional - Rooms are beyond legendary clean, when you compare to local standards!
Wonderful design!
Best host!
Location is just 2 minutes walk from the main promenade, but not surraunded by a single bar or club, making your night magicaly quite.
- Nancy (10/5): Lovely and cosy hotel on perfect location - Very friendly owner! I had a very beautiful room with perfect little balcony and nice view. The room was very clean and got cleaned every day.
The location was perfect for me, very close to taksim square. Everything was perfect!
- Noman (9/5): Superb - The host Sultana was very nice, and even let us check in at 2 am. The room was very clean, and balcony was decorated with natural plants. No problem
- Hashemi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Elmedina (10/5): We give credits to the host, Sulltane who was very polite and welcoming even though we had to check in earlier because o - The property is well located, only 5 minutes from Taksim Square and Istiklal road. The room was very clean and it had two balconies which we loved a lot. Nothing, everything was just like we imagined and hoped it would be!
- Mohammed (10/5): Best hotel in taksim - Felt like being at home, the owner was very kind and respectful
- Elisavet (7/5): Our stay was made delightful by a charming, spotless room and Sultana's exceptional hospitality, despite the uneasy - We loved how charming and incredibly comfortable our room was, providing the perfect retreat after a day of exploring the city. The hotel was also spotlessly clean, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Sultana, the host, was a true delight—always kind, attentive, and eager to help with anything we needed. Her warmth and dedication to making us feel welcome truly enhanced our experience, and we’re grateful for her hospitality. The hotel's location in a sketchy neighborhood made us feel uneasy and a bit scared throughout our stay. Even though it was close to the city center, we didn’t feel comfortable walking around, so we relied on our car to get anywhere, which limited our ability to fully explore the area on foot.
- Linda (10/5): Fully recommend this property. - Sultan was an excellent host. She was very supportive when i lost my wallet. could not have been more helpful.
- Simon (10/5): We had a wonderful stay - The rooms were all spotlessly clean and comfortable
Sultana was a wonderful hostess and made us feel very welcome. She was also able to provide lots of useful information.
- Aram (3/5): Poor -
- Claire1511 (10/5): Fab location for exploring Istanbul - Really pretty room with a great little balcony. Location was perfect for us and was a fab jumping off point for exploring Istanbul. Being close to the metro was really handy and being near to Istikal Street was great. Our host was really friendly and helpful. The room was incredibly clean. For the price this was an excellent option for touring Istanbul 😊
- Stannecerto (8/5): Cozy stay - Silent area, nice decorations Informal communication
- Gareth (10/5): Excellent - Not the first time I have stayed here. Always excellent. Location is great, as are the rooms.
- Jelena (10/5): Exceptional - The rooms are great, really well kept and clean! Everything was comfortable, enough space for 2 people and we really enjoyed our stay here! And the main reason for all of that is the great host Sultana, who was really warm and welcoming, always helpful and greeted us with a smile, extremely grateful for her! Amazing stay overall
- Ruben (10/5): Fantastic owner, good location. - The owner is just fantastic. She is extremely clean and helpful.
She is always there if you need and you will have this feeling like "to have a mum" who is taking care of everything.
She is very approachable and her energy is very good, we really felt like at home, and you can see she really care about the guests.
The zone is really convenient to go to everywhere walking or by metro, when we will be back in Istanbul we will go back for sure!!
10/10
- Adda (10/5): Best holiday - Everything was perfect.
First of all, Sultana it's a great host. She becomes quickly your friend. She it's very helpful and acomodated us in a very nice way.
The propriety it's located just a few steps away from the Modern city center of Istanbul, calles Taksim, it's a quartier full of life with nice shops and a very beautiful mosquee.
The rooms are very but very clean and cozy.
We had a sunny balcony where we could enjoy the morning coffee.
Also we had a parking that it's a big plus because our car it's oversized.
Next time when we will come to Istanbul, certainly we will book also with Sultana.
Thanks so much for everything!
Hugs from Romanian team! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
, Nothing to tell
- Shazia (6/5): Reasonable stay. - The lady was very friendly and lovely and wanted to help.
Not far from Taksim square 10 min walk. Window seat/bed nice touch.
Rooms decent size and warm. No sound proofing at all. You can hear even whispering next door and shuffling about. Couples having sex like they are in same room.
Located at the bottom of a very steep road and a quite road feels uncomfortable walking alone at night.
I personally didnt find the pillows comfortable. Fabric stuffed type rather than bouncy soft.
- Georgios (10/5): Exceptional - The room was worth the money that we paid.
Sultana is the boss and she really is....
No matter what time it is, she's always there to help you. Glad to meet her There's no interesting view around but we knew that before we ever got there...
We can't have everything

- Sokratis (10/5): I highly rerommend The White Sawn Suites Beyoglu. It exceeded our expectations. - First of all Sultana -the owner- was very friendly, pleasant, kind and serviceable. She was there for us to answer all of our questions.
Also the room was very comfortable, spacious and very clean. Everyday it was being cleaned and they changed our sheets, plus they added more coffee (they offer coffee and tea in room).
The location is perfect, 4-5 minutes walking to Istiklal street and Taksim square and 3-4 minutes fto public transportation.
- Noreen (10/5): The best quaint authentic experience in Turkey. - The best quaint authentic residential area in the old part of Taksim. Literally a three minute walk into the main Taksim square, the hustle and bustle and huge selection of shops and eateries. It was all perfect
- Izabella (8/5): Lovely Accommodation in dodgy area - Very helpful and friendly host, everything very clean (room cleaned every day).
5-10 min walk from metro
Good value for money! Right at the bottom of a steep hill in a really dodgy area. Thankfully only 5 min walk yo Taksim square, but wish I realised this before as walk home at night quite scary!
- Jawaher (10/5): it was a very good time the area is so near to Taksim and isteklal street ! Transportation is there too, if you want tax - the room was soooo noce and clean ❤️❤️ the manager is the owner and she is soooo friendly and good lady ! she helped us and she's so nice
- Rachel (8/5): i would stay again - the property was lovely and very cute
- Diana (9/5): My stay at this hotel was enjoyable, with spacious rooms, a comfortable bed, and helpful tips from the host, Sultana, al - I recently had the pleasure of staying at White Swan hotel, and I must say that my overall experience was quite positive.
The rooms were impressively spacious, providing ample room to move around comfortably. The terrace was a highlight, offering a great place to relax and take in the surroundings.
The bathrooms were not only clean but also surprisingly comfortable, making the stay even more enjoyable. However, the standout feature for me was the bed – the mattress was exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep.
I can't forget to mention the wonderful host, Sultana. She was incredibly hospitable and kind, going the extra mile to provide us with valuable tips on where to dine and find reasonably priced Turkish hamams in the area. Her guidance was invaluable in making our stay memorable.
Overall, I had a pleasant stay and would consider returning in the future. Thank you to Sultana and the hotel staff for their warm hospitality. The only minor downside was the Wi-Fi, which could use some improvement. Although it's worth noting that it might not be unique to the hotel, as I experienced similar issues with my roaming mobile internet in the area.
- Margy (10/5): I’d highly recommend Sultana and her apartments . - Sultana the host is absolutely amazing . She goes far beyond any other host I have met . She truly treated us like family and nothing was too much trouble .
She is a beautiful lady inside and out . The apartment is spotless and comfortable.
The area isn’t the nicest end of town but you get used to it . A host like Sultana makes up for the area.
- Frank (10/5): The staff are so accommodating, the owner is so caring .. nothing was ever a problem .. would highly recommend - The property is in a great location and great value for money
- Fouzia (9/5): Great and perfect experience! - Nicely decorated room, very clean, kindness of Sultana, great location close to Taksim (for transport) and Istiklal (restaurants and shops). The area is safe and I had no problem as a woman alone but it can feel different for someone.
- Saleh (4/5): Disappointing - It is in a very difficult location and the road is little bit dirty and difficult to go up to the main street
Didn't change the bed cover
- Anastasiia (10/5): Little Beyoglu gem 💎 - I have spent a lot of time in Turkey, and yet I haven't seen the level of cleanliness like in The White Swan Suites! 100 out of 10:) The room was cozy, comfortable with a special touch(chadeliers, blankets, mirrors). It was a pleasure to come back there and chill after a whole day discovering Istanbul. True feeling of home away from home🥰 The host Sultana was just great! Very attentive to details, friendly, helpful and just an amazing person to have a chit chat with,so glad I met her😇
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nasim (10/5): Super sympa - Our week-long stay at the residency in Turky was truly delightful. The peaceful nights provided the perfect backdrop for a romantic escape. Manager Sultana's kindness and assistance added a special touch to our experience.
The rooms were incredibly cozy, and the bed was exceptionally comfortable. The daily room service maintained impeccable cleanliness, making our stay even more enjoyable. What stood out was Sultana's excellent taste in design, with each of the two rooms we tried having its own unique and special design.
The residency's location added to its appeal, situated just 50 meters away from a van station and 100 meters away from Istiklal Avenue. Additionally, Taksim Square was within a 5-minute walk, providing us with easy access to various attractions.
In summary, our time at this residency was fantastic. Quiet nights, attentive service from Manager Sultana, cozy rooms with tasteful designs, convenient location, and the convenience of extending our stay with no extra charge made our trip truly memorable. We highly recommend this place for those seeking a welcoming and hospitable stay in Turky.
- Averard (10/5): Exceptional - A great place for its price. The owner&administrator is a really good person, eager to help. Great room, air conditioner working properly, bathroom working properly, everything clean and cozy. The place itself is great; the location, less so. The street itself is not exactly clean or cozy. This is not a big problem, merely a thing to mind.
- Abdalla (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was great, specially the manger Sultana was great 👌
- Seyedmehdi (9/5): Superb -
- Mielo (10/5): Exceptional - The White Swan Suites is clean and has very friendly staff Rien
- Leetwito (10/5): Exceptional - Very helpful and nice host. the room is being cleaned every day. very close to Istiklal, but on a quite area
- Anonymous (10/5): Very Pleasant - usually I don’t write reviews but the White Swan Suites deserves a very good one.
The location of the place is exceptional with few minutes walk to Taksim square and the main streets. The street is very safe.
the room itself was very nice and clean. Sultana is an amazing person and she was able to help is with everything we asked for. She is so friendly and she helped us with tips around Istanbul and organised a taxi to the airport on the last day.
Highly recommend!! nothing
