Kinzi House

We loved our stay at Kinzi House. Mustafa was a great host and looked after our every need. Additionally, we loved being invited for a tea every time we walked past the reception office. Whether it was first thing in the morning or coming back in the afternoon, it was fun to sit out on the street, have a tea, chat to Mustafa and watch the world go by. The apartment was lovely and very tidy and the position couldn’t be better - right there in the middle of the action with bars next door, restaurants everywhere and the waterfront close by. I can’t recommend Kinzi House highly enough.

We booked an apartment at Kinzi House because of good reviews. And we are so glad we did! On our way to the hotel (we were driving from Istanbul), Mustafa rang to ask what time we would be arriving. He had sent us a message but we did not see it as we were using the phone for navigation. It was a really good timing as we were literally just 5 minutes away. And thank God he rang and found us at an intersection, as it was very tricky trying to find parking. Mustafa speaks very good English. On the way from the car park to the hotel he pointed out where to find atm, which restaurants were good, what was around the area (landmarks and attractions). He was the warmest and most helpful host we’ve ever come across! Our apartment has one bedroom, a living room with 2 sofa beds and a kitchen with a washing machine, which is a rare find. The apartment is clean and bright with heating throughout though we didn’t need it as it wasn’t really cold when we were there. The location is very convenient, close to shops and restaurants, ferry terminal, and the Trojan Horse statue. The rooms, facilities, location and the host have definitely made for a perfect stay!
