Expat Suite Apartment in Istanbul: A Furnished Base While You Settle In

Moving to Istanbul usually means a few weeks in limbo. You need a tax number and bank account before many landlords will sign, you want to see neighbourhoods before committing, and your shipment may not have arrived yet. A furnished, serviced suite gives you a stable base during that period without signing a one-year lease.

Why expats choose Kadıköy

Kadıköy and Moda have one of the largest international communities in Istanbul. Many cafés have English menus, shopkeepers are used to foreign residents, and there are regular community and language-exchange events. It is also a practical place to compare neighbourhoods from, with ferries, metro and Marmaray close by.
