Our story
İlyes & Adalet Bozyurt — owners, hosts, and the reason the breakfast tastes like someone made it for you.
More than a hotel
When İlyes and Adalet Bozyurt opened the doors of the Buhara Family Inn, they had one simple intention: to share the warmth of a Turkish home with the world. Not a transaction — a genuine welcome.
Every cup of tea, every sunrise from the grapevine terrace, every homemade breakfast — these are acts of love, not hospitality scripts.
Every guest who walks through our door becomes part of our family. We do not just offer you a room — we offer you Istanbul through our eyes, our kitchen, and our heart.
Our journey
İlyes and Adalet transform their family home on a cobblestone street in Sultanahmet into a boutique inn, sharing Turkish family life with travellers.
Grapevines, homemade breakfast and sunsets over the Sea of Marmara turn the roof into the reason many guests come back.
Hundreds of genuine guest reviews confirm what the family always knew: the warmth, the location and the food are the signature.
Eight rooms and the White House apartments. The inn keeps evolving, and every guest still gets the personal attention that made it known.
