Cheers Lighthouse

The Location of this lovely Hostel is close to major tourist attractions in Istanbul such as Aya Sofia , Blue Mosque , Topkapi Palace, Grand Bazar etc . The Hostel had friendliest staff imaginable and the atmosphere is very homely .... Special mention goes to Sial , Abbas , Murat and Melek who made my stay there exceptionally memorable . Abbas and Murat constantly helped me with information and bookings at the desk at all time. Sial was a marvel who took us along for great night life experience in Istanbul and helped me out with arranging Indian vegetarian food . His desi humour and friendly attitude were the winner all the way . Melek is an exceptional hostess who ensured guests at hostel feel very much at home and has become a really great friend of mine since then. There are lots of activities in the hostel which keeps you engaged even when you are not touring the city . The belly dance acitvity planned on Saturday night simply left me in a spellbind . Many tours can be booked directly from the hostel and shuttle service to the airport from the hostel is a great blessing . The owners of the hostel take great care in ensuring that the delivery of services is top notch and are lovely people to meet with . The rooms are clean and spacious with very comfortable beds . Clearly it is my future place of stay if I come to Istanbul again .

The social area has great sweeping views of the Bosporus and I would like to particularly call out the friendliness of the staff, they were very friendly and helpful. Great location as well as all the places of attraction are just a short walk away.

Staff is really very friendly and helpful. Loved my stay here.
