Göztepe station (Turkish: Göztepe İstasyonu) is a historical railway station in Kadıköy, Istanbul. Between 1969 and 2013, it was a station on the Haydarpaşa suburban railway line to Gebze. A modern station of the same name is now a stop on the Marmaray commuter rail service to Gebze.

The station was originally built in 1876 by the Ottoman government as part of the railway from Istanbul to İzmit. A small two-story wooden station house was built and is currently on the northern part of the station. Due to a steep climb just west of the station, trains weren't able to always make it up during snowy weather; so in 1915 the tracks were lowered by 11 m (36 ft) and a new, larger station house was built over the tracks in the Turkish Neoclassical style.
