You probably already know that we love to party. After our Where to Throw a Party in Istanbul article, we thought we’d let you in on two of the best venues to rent for house parties.

Why throw a party? Because you landed your dream job, you dumped your annoying-ex, because it’s not Halloween and you want to dress up for fun, or for ordinary reasons like your birthday, graduation, bachelor or bachelorette party.

Why rent a place to throw a party? No waiting in line, no organizational hassles, lots of privacy, and only the music you want to dance to.Or simply because your place is too small and your housemate is slightly obsessive-compulsive.  

Which venues to rent? Four Floors and In the Van are great options.

In the Van offers In the Van Small and In the Van Odakule. In the Van Small is—you guessed it—a smaller venue than In the Van Odakule. It’s more like a mini club that can take up to 50 people, whereas In the Van Odakule is decorated more like a house, and can take up to 100 people. Please note that the minimum number of guests for both locations is 30. The team behind In the Van takes care of everything for you: the drinks, the music (DJ), lights and sound system, decoration, invites. And the best part is you don’t have to worry about the morning-after clean-up session! The music is arranged by the in-house DJs according to your taste. If you want to nibble on some finger food, they can arrange that as well. Parties are held any day of the week, starting at 09:00pm and lasting until 02:00am. The venue rental is 250 TL for In the Van Small and 500 TL for In the Van Odakule. The pricing for alcohol is per person: 50 TL for 3 local or 2 international drinks, 75 TL for unlimited local drinks, 125 TL for unlimited international drinks. Call In the Van for more info on pricing.

Owned by nightlife guru Murat Topaloğlu, 4 Floors is a boutique hotel that features a fantastic penthouse, which you can rent out for a party. Topaloğlu doesn’t offer a set package; he first talks to the possible future host of the party, figures out what they are after, and uses his know-how to create an event catered to their needs. He only reserves the house parties at 4 Floors for people with similar understandings of entertainment as his, so it’s a bit exclusive. If you pass the test, you can throw a party with up to 25 people, starting as early as 07:00pm and continuing until around 03:00am. A few lucky ones can crash there too. After all, it is a hotel.

4 Floors; Tomtom mahellesi Kumbaracı Yokuşu Tercüman Çıkmazı No. 20, Beyoğlu; P: (0532) 497 79 21
