Nişantaşı at a glance

Nişantaşı, part of the Şişli district, is one of Istanbul's most elegant shopping and residential quarters. Abdi İpekçi Avenue and the streets around it are home to international fashion brands, designer boutiques, cafés and restaurants. The Teşvikiye Mosque, graceful apartment buildings and nearby Maçka Park shape the character of the neighbourhood, and visitors here often stay in boutique hotels or serviced residences.

Streets in Nişantaşı are narrow and parking space is limited, especially in the evenings and at weekends, when there is little room for vehicles to stop. Your driver drops you at the hotel entrance or the closest possible point; simply write the street and building number of your hotel or apartment in the booking.
