At the backdrop of the Sultan's Topkapi Palace in historic Sultanahmet, Harmony labels itself as the largest dorm hostel in Turkey. It is an entirely non-smoking property with free Wi-Fi access.
Private doubles and triples at the Istanbul Harmony Hostel combine whimsical furnishings, ranging from Turkish carpets to hi-tech massage showers. Each room features a lounge with couch, flat-screen TVs and air conditioning.
Guests can relax on the Ottoman-style roof-top terrace, smoking fruit-flavored tobacco from traditional water pipes, or ordering refreshments and drinks from the in-house bar.
T1 Tram Line stops 650 ft from the hostel Istanbul Harmony. It runs from the lively Beyoglu District to attractions including the Blue Mosque and Cemberlitas Hamman House.
