İstinye is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Sarıyer, Istanbul Province, Turkey. Its population was 15,721 in 2022. It is on the European side of the city between the neighbourhoods of Emirgan and Yeniköy, on the northwestern shore of the Bosporus strait.
In classical antiquity it was the site of a town called Lasthenes, which was later renamed Leosthenion (), and corrupted to Sosthenion () during the Middle Ages. The village was the site of the Michaelion, a church and monastery dedicated to St. Michael in Byzantine times.
