House Istanbul
Cozy-maximalist British club aesthetic layered onto Ottoman and Venetian bones. Think kilim rugs, Byzantine tiles, velvet armchairs, Marshall speakers, and 19th-century frescoes. The crowd is creative-industry: designers, architects, film types, and their guests.
Non-members can book the hotel rooms, eat at Cecconi's and The Allis, and use the Cowshed spa — but the main Palazzo Corpi clubhouse, the Embassy Club, the gym, steam room, and sauna all require a Soho House membership or membership upgrade.
Why It Matters
Turkey's first private members' club of this kind, set in one of Beyoğlu's most historically loaded buildings. The art collection alone — over 350 works curated by Francesca Gavin — rivals small museums. The rooftop view over the Golden Horn is genuinely spectacular.
Soho House Istanbul occupies the Palazzo Corpi, a neoclassical 1873 building that served as the U.S. Embassy from 1906 to 2003 before Soho House moved in and restored its frescoed walls, Carrara marble staircases, and grand rosewood doors. It spans four structures including the original palazzo, an Annex, a Chancery, and a sleek modern Glass Building where the 87 hotel bedrooms actually live. Non-members can book rooms, eat at Cecconi's or The Allis, and use the Cowshed spa — but the Palazzo Corpi clubhouse itself is off-limits without a membership.
Where You'll Stay
9 room types available
Large Mezzanine
The largest of the mezzanine rooms. Upstairs: a tranquil sleeping area with a freestanding bathtub. Downstairs: a sofa next to an actual fireplace. That combination of tub and fire is hard to argue with.
Super king · 70 sqmMedium
Floor-to-ceiling windows bring in serious light and make these rooms feel much larger than the square footage suggests. Enough space to actually unpack without living out of a suitcase.
Super king · 36 sqmMedium Mezzanine
Two floors with a generous sofa and armchairs downstairs and a proper sleeping space above. The kind of room that feels like a small apartment rather than a hotel room.
Super king · 55 sqmMedium Plus
Spacious rooms with a freestanding bathtub, two armchairs, and a table — the kind of room where you actually use the seating area rather than just stacking bags on it.
Super king · 47 sqmPlayroom
A genuinely one-of-a-kind space: double-height ceilings, an open bathroom positioned right in the middle of the room, and a large sofa in a generous seating area. Not for those who like walls around their bathtub.
Super king · 81 sqmSmall
A step up in space from the Tiny rooms. Takes inspiration from traditional Turkish design with a mix of materials and textures — think Anatolian kilims, patterned tilework, and rich fabrics throughout.
Super king · 26 sqmSmall Mezzanine
Split across two levels — sleeping area tucked upstairs for calm, armchairs and seating area downstairs. The two-floor layout makes 36 sq m feel considerably more generous.
Super king · 36 sqmThe Apartment
The top-tier option at 137 sq m, with locally crafted interiors, vintage furniture, and — yes — a grand piano. The large private terrace comes with a hot tub and a BBQ. A fully integrated kitchen and bar make it genuinely self-contained.
Super king · 137 sqmTiny
The smallest rooms in the house — compact but they manage to fit a super king bed plus carved wooden details inspired by local Turkish design. Good for light packers who plan to spend most of their time downstairs.
