Chambers of the Boheme

My first time ever staying at a hostel and I couldn’t have asked for a better place . The host is a very lovely man with great English . He gives great advice and tips on how to have a safe and good time in Istanbul . The hostel also makes delicious pizzas in their cafe area . I would definitely recommend anyone to come here . If I ever come to Istanbul again I will come back here .

Everything was amazing! The location of the hostel is perfect, and the place itself has a unique and charming atmosphere with its nostalgic furniture. It really gives a warm and cozy vibe. The people staying at the hostel were very friendly, and the staff was incredibly helpful. The beds, bathrooms, and common areas were all clean and wellmaintained. Also, there is a pizza restaurant downstairs with absolutely delicious pizzas, definitely a big plus!

Very kind staff

10/10!!! The man in the front desk was super helpful and even helped me load my istanbulkart to make sure I had enough to take the metro back the airport. I couldn’t recommend enough. Felt extremely safe as a solo female traveler.

Ahmet best host. Freadly. You can have amazing conversations.

My favorite place to stay in Istanbul! It’s located in a perfect spot, literally in the heart of the city. The owner is very kind and an amazing person. I’ll definitely be back soon.

The definition of average. The description calls it "the best hostel in istanbul" which is an absolutely wild claim. There's no social atmosphere. It's just a bed in a building That being said: it's very clean

A sweet hostel in a great location with a lovely owner. This place is close to the metro and a massive tourist street but also close to some more boho parts of town (and great antique shops). The owner was very kind and made me coffee one morning and shared his meal with me. Only thing to note is that the common room is under renovation so you can’t access it. But you can hang out downstairs in the restaurant area which is nice. Also it’s cash only. Overall friendly, lowkey place to stay.

Приятное место. Название оправданно. Местоположения вызывает бурную радость. Гуляла по Истикляль и ночью и днём и утром

Perfect Location and a great value. It’s a family run business and they went out of their way to make my stay very memorable. I will definitely come back. As an added bonus, the pizza downstairs is also delicious.

Lovely people, great accommodation, and a beautiful area. Highly recommended!

nice owner, gave me Istanbulcart during stayappreciatedthat! bring cash. not a social hostel but good for 1/2 days. good location didn't feel unsafe. fob/key for front door and rooms. no privacy curtain/lamps or kitchen facilities. had shared bathroom in my dorm, & one single bathroom on first floor so not lots for guests but doable. very simple, but comfortable beds. was luckyto have similar age roomates so we went for a drink which was nice but otherwise just a place to sleep really. thanks �...

Very comfortable hostel! Great location and the owner is very kind and will look after you. I would recommend for someone who wants a chill place to stay in a central location. NOT a social hostel, no common areas to meet other travelers.

This was a super nice place to stay - Ahmed was very welcoming, the location next to Taksim is ideal, the beds are clean and comfortable. It was just very quiet, with no communal spaces - this is not a social hostel. So I wouldn’t really recommend if you’re actively looking to meet people!

imundo! banheiro asqueroso, muito sujo, quebrado e mofado Quartos sujos e desarrumados. Eles nao limpam os quaetos, apenas fazem as camas. Há mercadorias esperramadas pelos corredores do hotel. A foto do perfil no booking nâo corresponde com a realidade.

Very calm, very cozy, familiar and best Host! Thank you Ahmet! 10/10. recommend hostel for >28 y, specially solo travelers. good espresso. pub crawlers and happyhour hunters rather go somewhere else

Super Hostel für den Preis

Chambers of the boheme was an incredible experience. I felt completely welcomed, very safe, and cared for. The beds were comfortable and perfect after a long day of exploring.

In the Heart of Istanbul Imagine a place just a few steps away from Istiklal Street — a rustic, authentic, and cozy building. The moment you walk through the door, the first thing you notice isn’t just the spotless rooms, but the feeling of peace that fills the air. And that peace has a name: Ahmet Abi. He is the heart of this hostel — with his kindness, dedication, and sincerity, he turns this place into much more than a stay. It becomes a home. Whether you are a student visiting for re...
