Fantastic Apartment
Stayed in the Orient Pearl for 4 nights last week. Lovely apartment just off of the main shopping street. Very spacious and would suit 2 couples sharing as the bedrooms each have their own well appointed shower rooms and are at opposite ends of the apartment so great for privacy. Souliman was fantastic carrying our case up the 3 flights of stairs. The apartment is very well equipped. We were tired from all the sight seeing so we got takeaways from the little cafe next door. So relaxing ENJOY

Great stay
We had a wonderful stay at Orient Pearl Istanbul. The apartment has a good size living room, a full kitchen, two bedrooms each with their own bathroom, and a washing machine. It felt like we got a taste of what it might be like to live in Istanbul. The apartment is steps away from Istiklal Street, which has shops and restaurants that are open until around midnight and gets thousands of visitors each day. Amazingly, you don't hear any of the noise in the bedrooms, so you can easily escape the hubbub when you want to. One warning that the apartment is up three flights of stairs and there is no elevator - not unusual for a historic building, but it can be challenging for anyone who has difficulty with stairs. On a final note, the owner and our contact in Istanbul were both extremely responsive to questions and made sure we were able to get from and to the airport with no problem. There is also an onsite building manager who also sells Turkish tea. We highly recommend stopping for a cup on your way in or out.

Great Location and Comfortable Space
This condominium is very well situated right by the very popular Istiklal street full of shops and restaurants it is also very close to Metro stations which is a great way to move in Istanbul, very easy and safe to use. The apartment is on the 3rd floor of an old building with no elevator but they are very willing to help when it comes to handling luggage upstairs, it is also very spacious with updated bathrooms and kitchen and it also comes with a washer machine which is really handy when traveling through Europe. Overall it was a great stay for us at the Orient Pearl, the communication with David to setup our reservation was great, and our local contacts in Istanbul, Ugur and Suleyman were very attentive to our needs and quick to respond when needed, I would definitely choose this property again when visiting Istanbul

nice apartment
a nice apt., comfortable beds, and great showers. great location in taksim with lots of restaurants and shopping just out the door. a bit difficult getting there, as cab driver dropped us off a block away and there were no street name signs. the contact person called me right away, but i had a difficult time understanding him on the loud busy street. the gentleman who took us up to the apt. did not understand our questions due to our language barrier. it would have been nice to have some coffee and more than 2 tea bags supplied.

Fabulous stay!
My colleague and I loved staying at the Orient Pearl, and would not hesitate to stay again. In the heart of the action, but brilliantly quiet, we were very appreciative of the stellar amenities and comfort.
