A short walk from Hagia Sophia; start your day with the quiet of the historic peninsula and follow the city lights through Sultanahmet in the evening.
A small, warm stay in Sultanahmet shaped by the 2019 Cheers Lighthouse archive: simple rooms, the historic peninsula near the Marmara and a friendly welcome.
Our aim is calm despite the crowds: simple rooms, an easy rhythm and a warm welcome shaped by the archive story.
The Cheers Lighthouse story began with a friendly, social stay overlooking the Marmara; we carry that warmth into today's Sultanahmet experience.
The old Cheers Lighthouse site described Lighthouse as the more comfortable backpacker stay in the Cheers family: Marmara views, simple rooms and an easy welcome. We carry the warm, welcoming side of that story into today's small boutique hotel experience.
We keep the bohemian, social and traveller-minded spirit of the archived About Us story.
The sea-view feeling and historic-peninsula setting at the heart of the old story remain part of our Istanbul experience.
Parquet floors, simple furnishings and clean, comfortable rooms: that clear language from the archive still informs today's design.
Guided half-day tours: Hagia Sophia, Topkapı and the Grand Bazaar. Arrange at reception.
Private door-to-door transfer from Istanbul and Sabiha Gökçen airports.
The original Cheers Lighthouse story — its friendly backpacker spirit, Marmara views and simple rooms — shapes today's stay. Until current property data is confirmed, this space is dedicated to the brand legacy rather than unverified ratings or review counts.
