Hostel Cheers Lighthouse, Istanbul

The staff was very nice specially Serdar!

The staff were really great and helpful. It is good location, walkable from sultanamet and hagia mosque. Breakfast was simple and good enough. Amazing view from my room. Tram station is also walkable. Access to all main areas.

Bathroom could have been little more spacious, but it is not a big negative. Overall very good stay and would love to visit again if at all I travel to IST again.

Hostel staff is really nice 👌

Location, staff, breakfast was great.

No kitchen

Amazing stay at Istanbul. Jaques and the staff are very friendly and gives good advices. Love my bro Jak ❤️

Very good costumer service, especially Kadir make a different, excellent and always very helpfull.

This is a great place to stay to meet other travellers and the staff are all super friendly and helpful. Special mention to Max who was a great guy! The bar had a great view of the city/coastline. The location was good with shops and restaurants near by and I'll definitely be returning at some point.

Having to leave!

Very central location, 5 min walk to the blue mosque and good breakfast

the balcony furniture needs renovation, it is old and rusty

1. The location was a short walk to the main attractions 2. The breakfast was good 3. The room was big enough and clean 4. The staff was helpful and kind 5. There are activities for those who stay for a longer time unfortunately we did not get to enjoy that.

Everything was nice for our 1 day stay.

breakfast, location, sea view from the terrace

Serdar and Jack, and the staff in general, were amazing to us. Very kind, friendly and ready to help. The Location is perfect, breakfast is delicious and i will remember the birds singing in the morning.

The bath is little and there is only one blanket for two. But is very good in general.

- Very very clean! (Not always like that even at other hostela around 8 score) - kind hostel people - Very good buffet breakfast - Towels included

All 👍

I am glad I chose this option, The location of the hostel was best. You have everything nearby just on your walking feet. I chose to come back to Istanbul and stayed here again.

Need regular checkup on bathroom cleanup rest everything is is super perfect.

Best view of any hostel I’ve been to personally, pretty solid breakfast as well so breakfast with a view at a hostel is awesome. Extremely well located for all the touristy type things.

Everything cost extra it seemed like

Breakfast is very good and view

The location of the hostel is ideal for a first time in Istanbul as it is close to the main historical sites The staff Serdar, Sedat and Maassoum are amazingly friendly and helpfull It is easy to meet other travellers especially solo travellers

It used to be a great place to stay when I visited Istanbul 3 years ago. I did not get the same vibes/ energy as it used to be. It is still a relatively good place to stay with a great location to meet all your basic needs that close to all main attractions in Sultanahmet.

Please replace all your pillows and mattresses. The pillows are very lumpy, and we could feel all the springs in those mattresses as well.

Great location and super friendly and helpful staff. Nice breakfast for a hostel.

We arrived very late and were greeted and helped right away. We booked a private room and were taken to a room that was not what we had booked. We went back and told them and after a few phone calls and a bit of time, we were told that room was not available but they would give us another room in that category. We did get a bigger room but not nearly as nice as any of the pictures on Booking. It’s advertised as a boutique hostel but the rooms we saw were very basic.

Breakfast was always on schedule had everything I would need to start the day. Staff went overboard to ensure my stay was enjoyable and went as so far to offer recommendations. Bonus was that everyone had an amazing vibe and the atmosphere of the hostel was perfect for vacation. Nothing not to like.

The location is perfect to wander the tourism places. Breakfast is also included.

The vibes didn't meet my expectation. Very different from the picture shown. There were also 3 rude people coming on my last day of staying who don't follow the house rules. They were almost ruining my holiday.

Murad the incharge was great helping out

None

location

noisy

Prefect location Near to all the attractions in Sultanhamet and public transportation.

Very well located to the main attractions, lovely terrace with a view. The breakfast as amazing, one of the best ones i’ve had at a hostel. The owner was lovely and very helpful

A bit basic rooms, but good for a couple of nights

There was a lot to like but I’d mention a few. Firstly the owners were super friendly and helpful. They literally made you feel like they could ask for anything at anytime and they would gladly assist. They helped me with my tours, my transfers to and from the airport etc. The lady who serves as the bartender is always so joyful and vibey. When she notices a sad atmosphere, she dances and makes the place feel like such a vibe. The rooms and bathroom was really clean however I’d suggest you take your own towel as they don’t provide and if you need, you’d have to pay 80 TL. The location is just perfect. Walking distance to almost everywhere. 24h reception is amazing. The views from the breakfast lobby is breathtaking. There was always something exciting happening each night and the amount of different nationalities was so nice! You will definitely make friends and mingle with a lot of people. Definitely recommend staying here

Well I wouldn’t say didn’t like but wasn’t what I expected. I booked the hostel with the side that faces the ocean but instead got the road facing one. The doors of the rooms squeak really loudly so it interrupts sleep sometimes. There is no towel provided. The breakfast is really basic and not too much to offer.
