Frommer's "Maybe it's hip because it's a pioneer -- Siraselviler Avenue used to be a bit dicey, but it's now very close to having a clean bill of health." Full review
Concierge "The lively nightlife and shopping area around Beyoğlu is generally neglected by hotel entrepreneurs... the Lush is the first to offer interesting accommodation without the fanfare."
Jetsetter "Eclectic hotel with arty rooms and bags of character in Istanbul’s vibrant Taksim Square." Full review

You can choose from cereals, pastries and Turkish favorites — sesame-covered simit, goat cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives and yogurt — ask the waiter for Turkish tea and eggs made to order.
Lonely Planet "One of a fast-sprouting crop of boutique hotels around town, this self-consciously hip place has 35 attractive rooms of varying sizes, all of which are individually decorated and full of amenities."

Rough Guide "Set in a quiet backstreet running parallel to busy Akbiyik Cad, this small hotel has an intimate atmosphere."
Frommer's "Because of a contract glitch, the Apricot was forced to move from its original location to an even more charming building on a parallel street." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This is such a pretty little hotel and it has been restored to a far better state than the original Ottoman building."
