The best part of this residence is the location and staff. Overland Residence is located at the heart of Taksim. It is near to Taksim Square and all other tourism places. The major attractions of Istanbul, such as Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, Basilica, Blue Mosque, different museums, Grand Bazar, Glata Tower, Glata Port, Dolmabache Palace and many more, are easily accessible. The staff is cooperative and helpful and ready to help anytime. The staff is English and Arabic speaking, which is a great advantage for us. We rented an apartment which was neat and clean, have all the facilities needed for the family. The kitchen had all the things which were helpful for us as we reside there with family. The washroom had the water jet, which is a blessing as it is to commonly available in the hotels.

The building is a little old but they maintained it well.

I highly recommend you all to choose Overland Residence as your first choice of accommendation whenever you are traveling to Istanbul. I spent a week in sir Mr Salim's hotel/apartment and had the best experience. We felt totally at home as they are not defects. The location is quite nearby to all the visiting places like The Galata Tower, The Blue Mosque, Egyptian Bazaar and The Grand Bazaar and so on. We were welcomed very warmly by the staff of Overland Residence. One of the staff named Hesham was a very down to earth person. His million dollar smile and assistance brings so much positivity in the visitors. He guided us regarding food, places to visit, transport guidance and numerous other information we needed 24/7. The owner Mr Salim and other staffs including Mr Mohammad are amazing people. They all made sure we were okay in every possible way. The basic needs like the grocery stores, money exchange and the pharmacy were just some meters away so I would definitely recommend overland residence to others and we will choose the same place to stay in our next visit. 🙂

"I had an amazing stay at both apartments I rented in Istanbul. The host was incredibly hospitable and went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed. He was always available to answer questions and offer helpful advice, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Both apartments were spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. They had all the necessary amenities, making it feel like a home away from home. The location was great, with easy access to local attractions and transportation. I highly recommend these apartments to anyone looking for a comfortable, clean, and hassle-free stay in Istanbul. The host’s attention to detail and excellent hospitality truly set these rentals apart. I’ll definitely be booking again on my next trip!"

During our summer holiday, we stayed with our family (including kids and an infant) at Overland Residence. The place was nice and clean, and all rooms had air conditioning. The staff at the administration were very nice and helpful, always happy to assist with any questions 24/7. The location is also good. If you have a car, you can park on the free spots on the street or in a nearby parking area (note that parking doesn't operate on Sundays).

We faced a issue with the Wi-Fi, but it's likely that the administration has already fixed it.

The property was close to supermarkets and tourist attractions. The staff were friendly, helpful and always checking in with us to see if we were comfortable or needed anything. Great value for money

The knives need some sharpening and some more cooking utensils like spatulas

I recently stayed in a two-bedroom apartment at this hotel, and it was fantastic! The apartment was spacious, clean, and well-equipped. The location is perfect—close to attractions but still peaceful. A special thanks to Mr. Ibrahim for his outstanding assistance, which made our stay even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel and would love to return!

Noting

It was a nice experience, as a cost versus benefit for this category, it is excellent .The location is amazing, You are in the middle of Istanbul. You have every thing around you. The staff is very helpful, polite and professional. They are trying to help you by any means they can. Thanks overland residence team.

some minor issues regarding maintenance inside the apartment.

We liked the staff and how polite they were.

We didn't like that towels were not changed a single time in four days. We didn't notice anyone cleaning the room.

Arrived 2am in the morning. Checking was fast and easy. Our room was ready. We were offered tea and all requested information about the hotel surroundings. Perfect location and clean hotel. Peaceful as it is about 200 meters from main street but only about 10 minutes walk from Taksim Square or Osmanbay station.

Nothing to complain about. All as expected and as in the pictures.

The rooms were exactly as in the pictures, everything was very comfortable. The location is very good, close to Taksim and Istiklal Avenue but still away from all the noise and crowds, absolutely worth it. The staff tho - never seen more sweet and welcoming people in my life. They were there for us all the time, always made sure that we're doing okay, extremely polite and easygoing. Even at times when we couldn't understand each other they would find a way to help us and be satisfied with our stay. It's a 10/10 for me, would definitely stay there next time, if they would have us back.
