I want to warn other tourists about a deeply unpleasant and frightening experience at the nightclub TEK-YÖN in Istanbul. On December 31, 2024, they demanded an unreasonably high entrance fee BY THE OWNER HIMSELF. When I POLITLY refused to pay that amount, I was physically attacked by the club's OWNER WITHOUT EVEN ME SAYING A WORD "just help my hands upp and yelled "let me be to the OWNER, including the security guards and even the owner himself. They resorted to violence without any provocation. What made the situation worse was that the police WERE THERE AND SAW the incident but refused to assist, completely ignoring what had happened. Later, I tried to file a police report at several police stations and with the tourist police, but I was denied every time. This is not just a safety concern for tourists but also highlights a complete lack of justice and support for visitors. I have traveled extensively, but I have never felt as vulnerable and unsafe as I did here. I strongly advise other tourists to stay away from TEK-YÖN or any other venues where similar risks might exist. Istanbul is a wonderful city, but this experience completely ruined my trip and left me feeling helpless and unsafe. Avoid this club at all costs if you value your safety and dignity as a tourist. DONT VISIT AT ALL COST ESPECIALLY IF ALONE!!!!

There are a couple of bars and bar service that comes to you. To order a drink, you order from the bartender and then pay with the cashier. We had an excellent time dancing here and plan on coming back again on returning trips to Istanbul. FYI - this is a great place to take pics as well.... we took lots of fun pics on the light-up stage or light-up stairs. I highly recommend taking these fun pics while you enjoy your drink and dance the night away!!!

Third stop of the evening discovering the clubs of Taksim Square. Door staff, coat check,…read morebartenders were all friendly and welcoming, but I had a serious misunderstanding with the guy exchanging currency to tip the gogo boys. Having no idea what the appropriate exchange rate was, I managed to offend by daring to check the exchange rate on my phone when the guy handed me 800 TL for $20 USD. He was charging about 20%, but my Turkish friend confirmed that was not unreasonable for a club, so I was ok with it. However, the irate staffer had already handed back my $20, refused to exchange it, made some choice comments about wanting to f*ck my mother, and signaled security to escort me out of the club. Sad that my innocent tourist precaution cost the staff tips that night because of the sensitive ego of an irate staffer, probably the owner. Won't be going back.
