Bereket Two Reviews

Bereket is a fantastic location in a wonderful city .... a short walk to Sultanahmet and even shorter
to the buzz of Beyoglu. We all had a great time.

Great location, Very nice apartment. Beautiful city.
Zockerman (Netherlands)
Very nice indeed. Fantastic location away from the tourist crowd yet near to everything. It was
fantastic to be able to rent all four apartments.
Feridah & family
We were very happy with our stay. It’s a perfect neighborhood for families and very convenient
for the main sights without being too touristy. Aynur was very prompt and helpful.
Beverly, Mark & Family (Vancouver, Canada)

The Shuchmans (Brooklyn, NY)
Third trip to Istanbul. First time staying here. Loved it. Family of four. Perfect spot, helpful staff.
We will return and will definitely stay here.
Herbst family (San Diego USA)
The apartment was a welcome place to retire after a long day of sightseeing and having fun in
and away from the city. We enjoyed how close we were to everything and that we could cook in
after purchasing things from the markets. If we return to Istanbul we would be glad to stay in
Bereket apartments again!

We enjoyed our stay in Bereket Two. What a great location! So easy to get to all the sights we
wanted to see. The apartment was very comfortable; everyone at Istanbul Holiday Apartments
very easy to deal with. We’ll tell all our friends about this great place to stay in Istanbul.
Sylvia, Joe and Michael (USA)
Thank you for a pleasant stay. Perfect location !
Dave & Melanie (Boston USA)

clean and homey – a great refuge form the bustling city. For our family of four it was great.,
Really enjoyed our staytin your wonderful city of Istanbul.
Ian, Cate, Josh & Sasha (Australia)
This is a beautiful little apartment and so central to everything. The pick-up and drop-off car
service is a huge help, especially when traveling with small kids.
Myra and Michael (Australia)
Thank you -- we had a wonderful time. It was a pleasure to come home from our daily adventures
to such a comfortable and handsomely furnished apartment. The apartment and its charming and
convenient neighborhood helped us enjoy what has been one of the most memorable and
enriching vacations we have ever had.
Tim & Melisse (U.S.)
The apartment was a great find. The pictures and description on the website were accurate. We
chose to walk everywhere and with 2 kids! No complaints as all the sites were close and the walks
very pleasant. All people around the apartment were friendly and very helpful with no outs
hassling. We have had a great stay and have fallen in love with this busy, friendly city with a
beautiful soul.

Bereket Two has been wonderful. Istanbul is a bit overwhelming, yet an incredible city. We will
have to visit again as there was no chance to do everything in our short stay. The apartment has
been a haven after very long days exploring, a welcome opportunity to put up our sore feet.
Dawn & James (U.S.)
We arrived at Bereket Two for the first time three weeks ago yesterday and these three weeks
have been very happy and memorable. How rapidly these rooms have become our home away
from home and our access to this exciting and vibrant city. We appreciate all that Ann and Aynur
have done to make our stay comfortable and secure. It will be a sad moment when the van comes
tomorrow morning to take us to the airport. But we will look back on our stay here with
unadulterated pleasure.
Alec & Mindy (U.S.)
I joined Alec and Mindy for one of their weeks here -- and Bereket Two immediately became the
center and source from which all Istanbul radiated. I've come to love and wait for the passionate
voice calling all to prayer from the minaret next door. The Galata Tower looms large but kindly
on the lovely neighborhood below. Thank you for his very special respite in a welcoming
neighborhood of an extraordinary city.
Claire (U.S)
Thank you for the lovely time in your apartment -- we felt very comfortable and enjoyed Istanbul,
your living room and all the restaurants around! I think our friends staying in hotels were a little
jealous!
Christina (Austria), Stefan & Christine (Germany)
We have had a lovely week in Istanbul. The apartment met our expectations; for once, the
internet pictures were telling the truth! The call to prayer from the minaret outside my bedroom
window almost gave me a heart attack the first morning. Now, at departure time, I have come to
enjoy it. With a flat like this one, we were free to entertain our Turkish friends as well. When
travelling four people together, I clearly prefer an apartment to a hotel. I will not hesitate to
recommend this flat to anyone.
The Solli family (U.S.)
We had fantastic days here in Bereket Two. Very, very charming apartment and perfectly located.
Just a few minutes away from all the buzz and people but really quiet at night. Istanbul is a
brilliant place. It was our first time here but most definitely not our last!
Stroppe family (Netherlands)
We had a great time at Bereket Two. The location is fantastic. We mostly walked everywhere.
The apartment is very comfortable with everything one needs close by.
Gary, Ruby & Leah (U.S.)
We had a really pleasant stay in this beautiful and comfortable apartment--it felt like coming
home each evening. We will recommend this place to everyone who wants to stay in Istanbul.
Walter, Hans, Mirjam, Arjan and Joelle (Netherlands)
What a fantastic time we all had this week! Our first time, and definitely not our last, to Istanbul!
Mary, John, Bob & Scott (U.S.)
Very nice apartment! Good location. We don't think we would have had such a great time if we
were to have stayed in Sultanahmet.
(Jacky, Michelle, Angela,Patrick, Don & Zen (U.K., Australia & Malaysia)
Thanks for the great apartment. We've all really enjoyed our time here -- everything we needed
and fantastic location. Loved Istanbul ...
Pete, Alex, Nina and Rob (U.K.)
Wow! What an excellent apartment. Elegant and tasteful. A true home in a strange place. And
what about the location -- just perfect. Istanbul is cool and so are the Turks.
Ijland (Denmark)
We absolutely loved our stay in Istanbul! Bereket Two was wonderfully welcoming and beautiful
-- a home away from home for the week we stayed in this interesting and vibrant city. We would
really like to commend the staff on its impeccable service. Our concerns were promptly
addressed and the drivers for our airport transfers was patient and reliable. The service really
added convenience and comfort during our holiday and eased our stay in a foreign country.
Thank you for such a memorable week. We will definitely recommend these apartments to our
friends.
The Harvard ('06) Girls (U.S.)
We enjoyed staying in beautiful Bereket Two for a week. Thanks to Ann and Aynur who were
very helpful in assisting us to make our stay more comfortable. In a nutshell, everything about the
apartment is perfect. Everything we needed was here. The location is perfect for us to visit both
Taksim Square and Istanbul's historical sights.
Norasni, Tatra, Fir (Malaysia)
We've had a delightful stay in Istanbul -- Bereket Two has been so conveniently located and has
much old world charm. Especially we appreciated the hairdryer and washing machine. Also the
internet connection and TV helped us stay in connected.
George & Dottie (U.S.)
Bereket Two has provided us with the perfect base for a wonderful holiday in Istanbul that we will
always remember. The information provided on the internet was accurate and arrangements
translated into reality. Being close to ferries, trams and buses made it easy to explore very
different areas of the city. Coming back to the apartment has allowed us to imagine what it would
be like to lice here -- awesome!
Dowling family (U.K.)
It was a pleasure to stay in Bereket Two. It gave me a beautiful feeling. Every morning I woke up
with the lovely sound of the call to prayer. Every night I could see the Galata Tower from the
balcony and the amazing moonlight. I loved the beautiful and cozy rooms.
Nazemi family (U.S. & Iran)
Many thanks for the lovely flat (Bereket Two) and kind assistance. Location, location, location.
We take home great memories of a terrific visit.
Lenk family (Israel)
Bereket Two is a lovely position tucked away behind the Galata Tower. The staff have been very
patient and helpful. This little street could be from a stage set – will miss this beautiful place and
of course Istanbul.
Stephen, Jen & family (Australia)
We had a wonderful stay in Bereket Two…the apartment was a wonderful oasis.
Elke family (U.S.)
Bereket Two is a very nice apartment! Good location. We don't think we would have had such a
great time if we had stayed in Sultanahmet.
Jacqueline (Malaysia)
It's been a great three months working and living here in Bereket Two. The Galata/Beyoglu area
is like no other in the world and its residents have welcomed me since my first foray. After a long
day ... it was nice to know that I had this great apartment to look forward to coming back to. Ann
and her staff have all been so accommodating and patient ... they made me feel like I was right at
home, Cheers to all for making my stint in Istanbul that much more enjoyable.
Franco (Canada)
Excellent stay for a business traveler as well! Bereket Two has all the facilities of a good hotel and
many pluses more ... I will return and recommend it to others.
Umit (Norway)
We enjoyed our stay in Bereket Two --thanks to you, thanks to this lovely apartment and thanks to
the wonderful people of Istanbul. We will be back for more ... your kindness in all matters was
appreciated by us ...
Sujatha & Bose (India-Malaysia)
We have many happy memories for Bereket Two and our week in Istanbul … Bereket was the
ideal location for us. Close to the sights. Close to the shops. Living in a historic neighborhood at
the foot of Galata Tower—yet with every modern convenience.
Noel-Orieta-Frederic (Australia)
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bereket Two. The apartment is situated in a good location,
close to all sightseeing places. It was also very handy to be near local food shops… the apartment
caters for all and has everything a person needs to have a good stay, long or short.
