Istanbul in December: weather, events and where to stay

Hotel Marius · Book your stay →

Weather

Istanbul in December averages 11 °C by day and 6 °C at night, with rain on about 17 days and around 3 hours of sunshine a day (official 1991–2020 normals, Florya station).

What's on

Packing and planning

Bring a warm, waterproof layer and shoes with grip — the old city's cobbles get slippery. Rainy days suit Hagia Sophia, the Grand Bazaar and a hamam; clear days suit a Bosphorus ferry.
