Situated right on the Bosporus, this hip, modern apartment boasts spectacular views of the city worthy of Sultans. It’s truly breathtaking to enjoy your morning coffee on a comfortable sofa while gazing at iconic monuments and the ferries cruising along. When you’re ready to head out to explore, the touristic epicenter of Taksim Square, posh streets of Nişantaşı district or the recently modernized trendy Karaköy neighborhood are all awaiting to entertain you.
The building is named Samibey, built by and named after my late grandfather Dr. Zülfü Sami Özgen and served as the family’s main residence for over 30 years. This third-floor apartment has recently been completely stripped down, renovated and refurbished with new furniture and equipment for the comfort and pleasure of our guests.
The 80m2 apartment has been re–designed with a spacious living room offering a lounge area as well as a dining area for the purpose of convenience and coziness. The doorway opens to the center of these areas. As you enter the space you find the living room and the dining area situated on your left, and right, facing the Bosporus. The living room area offers a dinner table, comfortable sofas (one becomes a bed) around a coffee table and a TV with cable.
Two bathrooms are located at either end of a hallway that leads to the rear of the apartment. Both bathrooms have been modernized for guests’ hygiene and comfort.
As you walk up the hallway, you find the kitchen right after the first bathroom. It is equipped with brand new appliances such as stove, oven, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, washing machine/dryer, coffee makers (filter and Turkish), kettle, toaster, pots and pans, plates, cutlery, utensils and basic cooking ingredients.
Both bedrooms are located along this hallway. They offer queen beds with fresh linens, extra pillows and blankets for those guests that seek added comfort and warmth, as well as ample wardrobe space for heavy packers. Both rooms are equipped with A/C units for those hot summer days.
A large communal garden located on the ground floor of the building is available for the pleasure of our guests along with other residents, presenting ample green grass to lie on and an assortment of trees to relax under.
