Bereket Three Reviews
Bereket Three is a splendid apartment, stylishly decorated, lavishly equipped and
perfected sited for seeing the sights of Istanbul. All the arrangements worked well and
we had no problems at all.
Bill, Nese & Selin (U.K.-Turkey)

Had a wonderful three days in Istanbul in February 2008. Loads of walking and good
food. Bereket Three is in a good position in a quiet area but close to restaurants and a
short walk to Old Istanbul. Never tired of the calls to prayer -- very evocative -- even
from the minaret next door. Warm, well-equipped apartment.
Ian & Clare, Mark & Karen (U.K.)

The apartment was extremely pleasing. We enjoyed our stay. It was comfortable,
spacious and beautifully decorated. As there were 6 of us, the size was perfect. The
view out of the bedroom window was breathtaking.
Sabina (U.K.)

Our stay here at Bereket Three was truly splendid! It was always a pleasure to come
back home after a tiring day. Everything was provided to us to meet our needs.
Alfred (U.K.)

We had a very pleasurable stay at Bereket Three. The location is fabulous with easy
access to Sultanahmet and Istiklal Caddesi. Our apartment is spacious and
comfortable. What a magical city!

The place to stay while in Istanbul -- comfortable and unique. Ann assisted us from
initial reservation all the way to our departure.
Shahiyar (U.S.-Iran)

We’ve enjoyed our stay in Istanbul very much and loved the apartment! It is close to
both parts of town, the view from the bedroom is stunning and it has all the comfort
you need. We felt very much at home. Only the minaret was a bit too close for comfort
in the early hours.

We spent a great week here, seeing the weather change from snow the day we arrived
to a hot summer day today. Absolutely great location. Istiklal has everything and yet is
not  too touristic.

Our stay in Bereket Three was excellent. Lots of space and a perfect location. Close to
Taksim, vcenter and everything. The minaret at 10 meters was a mixed blessing. Let’s
say part of the charm. We certainly  will recommend.

Wonderful relaxing week in this beautiful city. The apartment has everything that we
could have wished for. I preferred the imam wth the slightly softer voice. But still an
enjoyable part of this experience. I am an Istanbullu!

We have enjoyed 3 nights in Glorya and 2 nights in Bereket. We have been taken
aback at the wonder of this city: its beauty, its concoction of social and religious history
and its friendly and obliging people. Definitely a place to return to for a longer period!  
Many thanks to Ann and Aynur for their professionalism and assistance.

This has been a spacious apartment with Aynur and Ann willing to help in any way.
Good location with lots of sightseeing either a close walk or tram ride away. We've had
approximately 12 days here and have barely scratched the surface of the sights. Walk
all day and you’ll only hear the start of the call to prayer – you’ll sleep through the rest.
Sue & Graham (Australia)

Istanbul never fails to amaze with its culturally rich heritage. My 4th visit and David’s
? (works here so comes often) and I’m still in love with the city. This has been our first
stay in an apartment and it certainly added another dimension. Try the Konak Cafe at
the corner – a view to die for.
Deb & David (Australia)

Even though being outside felt like kissing the sun, the apartment kept cool as a raki
on the rocks. The spacious feeling of the apartment was most wonderful and most
appreciated. As for the location, one can wish for no more. The area around Galata
Tower is beautiful and the the apartment was close to all interesting sights and sites.
Hillevi family (Sweden)

Cool, spacey and clean – just the thing you need after spending the day milling
around with the rest of the tourist crowd. Istanbul is wonderful and this was a great
starting point for expeditions. A minaret tight outside your bedroom window – just a
colorful extra that didn’t bother us much. The call to prayer at dawn was just a
wonderful way of knowing you could still sleep a couple of hours longer.
Grunberg family (Sweden)

Thanks for a great stay! The apartment was comfortable and had everything we
needed. The climb up 3 flights of stairs made us feel less guilty for eating one too
many Turkish kebaps! Istanbul is a beautiful city and the ferry rides on the Bosphorus
were definitely a highlight. It was great that all the sites were so close by and taxis
were easy to catch from the base of the Galata Tower. Walking down Istiklal Caddesi
was very enjoyable in the late evenings – there was always something going on and so
much to see. Many thanks to Ann and Aynur for all their help; it was much
appreciated. P.S. We were big fans of the Konak Patisserie round the corner – they
have the most incredible cakes!
Abdul-Cader family (U.K.)

Thank you for a wonderful stay in four different apartments over a three week period.
We have enjoyed ourselved immensely and will hopefully be back.
