    The old Bomonti beer brewery has been transformed into an urban & hip lounge place with several (upscale) cafe/restaurants, open air entertainment and the new Babylon club/concert hall.

    A babylon of drink, dance and meeting people in Istanbul! For me more than a five star place in the town. When u enter you suddenly realize that this is a lovely spot for international people and tourists so you can meet them or a group of friends having a nice dance and drink reunion! Different choices of food and drink provided by well differentiated restaurant corners. I wonder to come here frequently anytime I visit Istanbul! Enjoy the vibe! What a vibe!

    If there is a over crowded event, you cannot have the best experience but still a good venue that hosts many good musicians from all over the world.

    Islandman live :) great place, perfect for such concerts. They stop selling tickets once the place is full. So buy ahead or come earlier.

    Very nice music and ambiance. Had a great time, 90's hip hop, Rnb! The red wine they serve was "undrinkable" !

    What an incredible place to visit. I would recommend purchasing tickets beforehand, however, the wait in the normal line was not too long.

  • 3/5 Gozde A. 1 year ago on Google
    Cool concerts. However today during Lalalar performance ,barman lead was very rude to his Junior barmans and customers. Please train him first how to communicate with people and then let him to serve for audiences. Otherwise he will be a shame for the concert hall.

  • 4/5 StefhanJKR 1 year ago on Google
    Great bar. No smoking allowed inside. Questionable choice in acts invited to perform here though...

  • 4/5 noburu k. 1 year ago on Google
    İ just went to Jakuzi live. İ like the venue. High Quality Sound. Cocktail sells from 220TL.

  • 3/5 sourena h. 1 year ago on Google
    We ordered two different drinks; it was the worst cocktail I have ever had.

  • 4/5 Ebrahim Y. 10 months ago on Google
    Very good location for events and concerts but drinks and snacks are very very unfair, but it seems that it's a norm in turkey to ban entering the food and drink and force people to buy them 3 times more expensive while you already have been charged for the entry and ticket, hit and run businesses are so popular these days

  • 4/5 Enes K. 4 years ago on Google
    Huge stage, great sounding equipment, the crew was very helpful and they have a decent backstage (Size etc) The restrooms were clean too. Since they don't have a terrace, you are supposed to smoke outside but there are no heaters. Overall it's a nice place, would recommend.

  • 4/5 Gert M. 6 years ago on Google
    Really nice club, great music, great design, smooth entry management. Alcohol is too expensive though. We're not in London.

  • 5/5 Mosab H. 4 years ago on Google

👍 We came to the Hayko Cepkin concert here twice. The atmosphere is really good. I wish it could be bigger. I wish more people could come. The buffet area is very narrow and there are many queues. You have to wait a long time to get 1 water.

Event venue
👍👍 The venue hosts festivals, concerts and open air exhibitions. I’ve been to Küçükçiftlik Park twice so far. My first visit was for the Istanbul Coffee Fest back in October 2022. The second visit was for the world famous DJ Black Coffee concert recently. The venue has one downside. It’s the car park...

Internet cafe
👍👍 Highly recommended, just how you see it on YouTube or Twitch. Super high spec-d machines, running high end graphics cards and gaming equipment. There’s no consoles and only PC gaming. They have most of the famous titles and it’s very systematic the way they do it.
