Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Şişli?

Gross bookings per Şişli listing averaged ₺326,829 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Istanbul average: ₺423,013), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Şişli listing brings in ₺82,200 in July, its best month, and ₺43,400 in February, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 32% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 4.2 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn ₺130,000+ a month, about 3.2 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn ₺76,500 or more, roughly ₺36,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about ₺40,400 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn ₺18,000 or less, about 45% of the median.

These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.

July earns about 1.9 times what February does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Şişli Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Şişli Airbnb took in ₺326,829 in the 12 months to September 2026, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about ₺618,200, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ₺36,600 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money.

These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.

Estimate Your Own Şişli Airbnb Profit

The estimate starts from Şişli's average listing, run by its owner. Change how the listing performs, who runs it and who cleans to see what is left for the mortgage or rent.

How Şişli's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Şişli listings are booked on 56% or more of their nights, against 31% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ₺3,425 adds about ₺34,300 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ₺5,465 a night or more, against a median of ₺3,425. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about ₺31,000 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about ₺82,200, against ₺43,400 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Şişli listings average 4.65 stars, and 18% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.

What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about ₺51,500 a month, against ₺27,200 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in Şişli?

  • Strong performers (top 25%) fill 56% or more, roughly four nights a week.
  • Typical properties (median) fill about 31% of open nights.

Nightly rates

How Much Does an Airbnb Cost per Night in Şişli?

Averaged month by month over the past two years, rates peak in July and August at about ₺4,830 and bottom out in February and November at about ₺3,810.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge ₺8,385+ a night, about 2.4 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge ₺5,465 or more, about ₺2,000 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about ₺3,425 a night.

July rates run 27% above November's

Average nightly rate (ADR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, ₺4,190. The 12-month ADR of ₺4,931 averages each listing's own rate across its whole year; the monthly points average listings month by month, so the two differ.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Şişli?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Şişli it averaged ₺1,670 over the past year, from about ₺1,530 in a typical December to about ₺2,650 in a typical July.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn ₺3,410+ per open night, about 2.8 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn ₺2,180 or more, about ₺950 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about ₺1,230 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn ₺658 or less, about half of the median.

July RevPAR is about 1.7 times December's

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Şişli?

The average booked night in Şişli cost ₺4,931 before fees. Half of listings charge between ₺2,185 and ₺5,465, so bedroom count and location move the price more than the average suggests.

Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Şişli?

In Şişli, 92% of active listings display a registration, permit or license number. The share shows what hosts display, not what the rules allow, so confirm registration, permit and tourist-tax rules with the local authority before buying.

Yes, when it's run well. The average Şişli Airbnb grossed ₺326,829 in the 12 months to September 2026, 23% below the Istanbul average of ₺423,013, counting listings open only part of the year. A listing at the top-quarter mark, run by its owner with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, has about ₺36,600 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
