Stay: Mama Shelter Istanbul
Chic, stylish and offbeat... Mama Shelter takes over Istanbul after its three spots in France! With its five room types offering different travel experiences from a single journey to a loud family trip, the hotel basically has it all: Mama Shop, meeting spaces, concierge and babysitting services and last but not least a delicious French restaurant with an oh-so-hip bar, frequently hosting the up-and-coming DJ's of town. Needles to mention that Mama Shelter's restaurant/bar is a hot spot for not only hotel guests but also Istanbulites, and you'll understand the reason why once you step in the "rabbit hole".
The Vavavoom room: Mama single terrace -though the terrace is more like a balcony, this compact and spacious room has it all.
Why: To get surrounded with cool details, attractive tunes and an impeccable service; we are calling out for you design afficionados! The location, by the way, is also perfect -the top clubs and bars are only in a short walking distance.
Where: Huseyin Aga Mah. Istiklal Caddesi, 50-54, Beyoglu
How much: $90-250 per night.
