A short 5-minute walk takes you to the tram station, connecting you directly to the Historic Peninsula and the vibrant streets of Eminönü. Just 1 minute away is the Tünel—one of the world’s oldest underground railways—linking the lively Karaköy district with the bustling İstiklal Avenue.

From your door, the starting point of İstiklal Avenue in Şişhane is only a 1-minute stroll, inviting you into a world of historic arcades, boutique shops, and lively cafés. For a change of pace, you can enjoy a scenic 15-minute walk along İstiklal Avenue to reach the legendary Taksim Square.
