Istanbul Sweet Home - Blog

Some of our guests who stay in our  gay friendly Istanbul apartments sometimes ask me for a recommendation for a good gay bar in Taksim area. I don’t know which one is recently better than the other but I know that it is always very fun and lively when my friend, Dj Can plays in a venue…Nowadays he is a resident Dj at Barbahce on every Saturday night and Barbahce is very close to some of  our  apartments in Cihangir area.

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) :)))

I have been taking aero-stretching courses from Ms. Ayse Sun since 1997. She also teaches classical ballet, which is actually her own field, both to children and adults.

Our aero-stretching classes are composed of set movements from yoga, aerobics and stretching that she designs and we come together every Monday and Wednesday at 20:00, Friday at 18:00 at her own studio in Mis St., No:12, Floor:4, Beyoglu.

I strongly recommend her classes to my guests who are here in Istanbul for a short while and want to do some physical training even it is for a couple of times…

You may contact her e-mail address  ayseaygor@hotmail.com for more info in Turkish or mine info@istanbulsweethome.com in English.

Karaköyüm Restaurant has a stunning view of the Bosphorus and it is run by two distinguished ladies, Şeniz Lakay and Sevinç Baliç, who really keep a closer eye both on the menu and the comfort of their guests….
