Istanbul Sweet Home - Blog

Here’s an article from Günnur Dicle, published at Pukkaliving.Com about Istanbul Sweet Home.

Self Control
IstanbulSweetHome Apartments

You’re new here and need a room pronto. With no clue as to how to even pronounce Nişantaşi or Cihangir, you’re being dragged to all sorts of wrong flats by a well-meaning but equally clueless estate agent.

Stop now! Quickly find a computer and type this: IstanbulSweetHome.

Four Istanbolites who were fed-up with rude and wicked landlords decided to take the matter into their hands and created ISH some time ago.

Having restored beautiful flats in fantastic locations like Taksim, Galata and environs which they rent out for long or short stays, they take personal care of their properties and treat you like a guest (not some foreigner=money making machine).

Each flat has a peculiar characteristic (one even boasts a private Turkish hamam), and is located in gorgeous buildings done in Bauhaus or Art Nouveau style in line with that 1880’s Beyoglu-Cihangir look. We really liked Istanbul Eye, set on two levels with stunning views of Golden Horn, offered on a last-minute deal ending March 14th.

See IstanbulSweetHome online or email to info@istanbulsweethome.com for a full list of flats.

The transportation of our apartment pages to the new layout has taken longer than we expected. There are couple of reasons behind this. Such as, we have to wait for the apartment to be available for at least one day to take videos and new photos with the new furniture. We are also working to give more detailed information about the flat, such as its location, distance to closest touristic interests and how to get there, more information about the features and amenities and so on. But eventually, our last apartment page available for short stays is up and running with its new layout, more to the eyes and more user-friendly. We are proud to present Tea & Gossip Balcony! (applause) :)))

Would you enjoy a complete view of Bosphorus and loads of fresh air? How about enjoying them while having your breakfast or sunbathing and even taking a shower if you start to feel hot? Well, now the terrace of Istanbul Eye offers all these facilities!

Recently, we have noticed that the terrace had a magnificient view but lacking something. It’s quite a wide one and totally in open air. But during the summers, it gets so hot that you can’t enjoy this view long enough. However we have installed some lovely things that will turn this experience to an unforgettable one for you :). There are two new deck chairs where you can sunbathe and a big umbrella when you want to stay in the shadow. In addition to these, we installed a simple shower unit for you to cool down without interrupting your pleasant mood. Certainly we took a video of it, too :) Also visit the Istanbul Eye pages for a more detailed information and other videos.

It’s a hot summer this year and we are starting to see the effects of the global warming very vividly! The water reserves in the dams in Istanbul have been decreasing dramatically and we are often told to be careful about using our water. It’s also possible to see water cuts from time to time although most of the time they are said to be of common fault.

But wait! Now you don’t have to worry about water cuts in our apartments anymore! :) Because all of our apartments in Istanbul are now equipped with water tanks and you are not going to have to worry about water cuts during your stay. Certainly we still ask you to be careful about using water since it’s a global problem but it’s a good feeling to know that you are supplied with enough water for 1-2 day water cuts.

We have also made a list of “Our Standards of Service in our Vacation Rentals” in case you might want to check.
