Hi everyone,
I’ll be spending a few weeks in Istanbul soon and I’m currently deciding between Nisantasi, Moda, Cihangir and maybe Besiktas/Galataport area.
I’m looking for somewhere:
walkable
safe
good cafés/restaurants nearby
nice atmosphere both during the day and evening
not overly touristy
good for a mix of work, wellness and exploring the city
Would especially appreciate hotel or apartment recommendations if you’ve stayed somewhere you loved.
Thank you :

Hi everyone,
I’ll be spending some time in Istanbul soon and would love recommendations for really good skincare/facial clinics or beauty spas.
I’m mainly interested in:
hydrafacials
skin treatments
facials
lymphatic drainage
good dermatology/aesthetic clinics with natural results
I’m looking for places that are clean, professional and genuinely good quality — ideally places locals actually trust, not overly touristy spots.
Would also love recommendations for areas where most good beauty/wellness clinics are located.
Thank you :)
