firuz!place apartment

the top two floors of an historical Turkish house

 

 

firuz!place is on the first and second floors of a 19th century traditional Turkish house. The apartment has two good-sized bedrooms (one double, one twin) with a shower-room on the first floor. Bedrooms are separated by a hallway and arch with curtains for doors. A sweet brick staircase leads up to the open-plan living/dining space and spacious balcony above.

It’s 80 m2 in total and full of character. The location of firuz!place is excellent and interesting: Cihangir/Cukurcuma are ‘happening’ areas in Beyoglu, yet still very authentic.

A short wander in one direction will bring you to quiet streets of antique shops and in another to Istanbul Modern contemporary art gallery on the Bosphorus. Orhan Pamuk’s Museum Of Innocence is currently being made ready right opposite firuz!place and Istiklal is just up the hill.

Charming firuz!place

“If you want to be charmed and feel at home thousands of km away, in a very clean and well-maintained place, well-decorated and comfortable, firuz!place is the place to stay. In a quiet but authentic neighbourhood, close to a wide choice of restaurants and right in the heart of the many sites to visit. firuz!place made of our stay in Istanbul, a memorable time.”
