About

Mar Boutique Apartment

Mar Boutique Apartment sits on Muehendis Sokak in Fatih, Istanbul's historic heart. The property is a 5-minute walk from Seyh Ebu'l Vefa Camii, and the surrounding streets hold shops, cafes, and restaurants within easy reach. It's a practical base for exploring the old city on foot.

The apartment offers more than a typical hotel room: guests get a terrace and a garden for relaxing outdoors, a washing machine and iron for longer stays, and a small kitchen area with tea and coffee facilities. The staff are frequently praised for being accommodating and responsive, from lending a metro pass to helping troubleshoot the washing machine.
