3 Best Nightclubs in Istanbul


Unlike popular beliefs, locals here love to spend nights partying away. Istanbul's party scenes have come to life in recent years, with numerous pubs, bars, and clubs spreading throughout the city. If you want to explore this flank of the majestic city, read on!


Here are the three glamorous nightclubs in Istanbul.



 


1.Sortie


 


Situated in Kurucesme (a prime spot in Bosphorus), Sortie is known for its elite ambiance and picturesque views. 


It comprises seven best-of-the-best restaurants and three glitzy bars offering good food, music, and live entertainment, all under one roof. 


Sortie attracts tons of visitors throughout the year. Although relatively young, this club is one of the trendiest and most expensive in Istanbul, where you have chances of bumping into celebrities too. 


The place prides itself on its breathtaking views, internationally met standards, and fine wine-and-dine experience. 



2.360 Istanbul


 


360 is a rooftop bar and a restaurant located in a 19th-century building's penthouse in Istiklal, offering a splendid panoramic view of the Bosphorus, golden horn, and the sea of Marmara. 


360's design, architecture, atmosphere, and entertainment set it apart from the rest of the nightlife in Istanbul. It attracts tourists for its perfectly blended Turkish and international cuisine. 


Weekends at 360 mean experiencing some of the best DJs, vocalists, live dancers, and performers.

3.Kucuk by Klein


 


Are you looking for a place that will make your heart dance? Well, Kucuk by Klein is your answer. 


Located within walking distance from Taksim square, Klein offers kitsch-decadent decors with suspended dancers and a subterranean playground. 


Its over-the-top decor will pull you in and sway your heart with its electronic and techno music, live entertainers, and international DJs. Oh, and the cocktails here are a must-try.
