Hagia Sophia

In 537 AD, Hagia Sophia began life as a church, before becoming an Ottoman mosque in 1453. The largest cathedral in the world for almost a thousand years, this majestic building is considered one of the finest surviving examples of Byzantine architecture. Today, you can explore its vast structure from the inside with a visit to the museum that’s now housed within the walls.

    Queues, Queues and more queues. But worth it.

    Queues, Queues and more queues. But worth it. Do not bother with the AR experience which costs an extra 1250 TL (£25) each. The entrance is roughly £25 to get in if you buy it at the ticket office, make sure you ask for the basic tour otherwise they include the AR experience as a default. Amazing mosaics and beautiful architecture.

    Excellent location. All major Tourists attraction like Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, etc are within 5 to 10 minutes walking distance. The place is quite. Bosphorus can easily be seen from Hotel Room (2 nd and 3rd floor have best view option). All hotel staffs are very helpful and caring. I must mention name of OUMAIMA, OMINA the two young girls in the front desk and young man EMIN. They have solution of every problem. The property is well mentioned. Highly recommend to stay.

The staff are absolutely fantastic and upon check in they saw it was my birthday and upgraded us to the best room with a whole floor to ourselves! Exceptional customer service, lovely hotel with everything you need. Thank you very much for an amazing birthday in Istanbul!

    We had a wonderful stay at Magnaura Palace Hotel! The location is unbeatable — just a short walk from Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, and Topkapı Palace, yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful and cozy. The rooms are charming and comfortable; One of the highlights was the terrace view — watching over Istanbul’s historic skyline was magical. The staff was warm, attentive, and always ready to help with suggestions or arrangements.

    Perfectly located in the middle of central Istanbul (Sultanahmet), 5min to Hagia Sophia and a lot of delicious restaurants in walking distance, from outside it looks unsuspicious but on the third floor there are these new apartments which are perfect for a visit to Istanbul! Thank you so much for the stay!

    Located 10 minutes walk from the Hagia Sophia, the Basilica Cistern and other famous sites this hotel is in a great location. The room was clean and the staff helpful and friendly. You don't need to walk far for shopping or eating either and the tram is just up the hill. We were very pleased with this hotel and would consider staying here again if we were to return to Istanbul.

    Pros: * Location is perfect - walkable to Taksim, Eminonu, Karaköy, Hagia Sophia. Easy to get to from the airport via a short walk from Haliç station. Halkbank is round the corner for fee free ATM withdrawals. The apartment/hotel is in sort of a industrial supplies district which was fine by me (but just an fyi) * All of the guys at reception are very helpful and polite * We got upgraded for our stay, our apartment was a good size for two, nice enough bathroom.

    We stayed at hotel during our trip to Istanbul and were very satisfied. The location is excellent – close to Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque and other main sights, yet quiet and comfortable. The rooms are clean, cozy and well maintained. Staff are always polite, helpful and ready to assist with any requests, which made our stay even more pleasant. Breakfast was fresh and tasty, a great start to the day. Overall, Palmera Old City offers very good value and creates a welcoming atmosphere for travelers. Highly recommended!

    Very Budget Friendly and amazing hotel. Engin was a very nice host and helped guide us about Istanbul, as it was our first time there. Good-sized room and clean bathroom. Everything you can expect for the trip. It's just 6 6-minute walk away from the Topkapi Palace and Hagia Sophia, and very close to public transport. Absolute worth it for the money.

    We had a wonderful stay at Ayasofya Hotel in Istanbul. The hotel is in a perfect location just a short walk from major attractions like the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and the Grand Bazaar, making it very convenient for sightseeing. The staff were extremely friendly and supportive. Although there were some language barriers, they made every effort to assist us even using translators when needed which we really appreciated. The room was comfortable, clean, and well-maintained, and the hotel’s transport arrangements were quick and efficient.

    Blue Mosque & Hagia Sofia are both jaw droppingly stunning inside. Avoid the huge tour group queues & go straight to the top of the line, else you'll wait for hours. I was in (in both places), in 10 minutes without being pushy.

    Lots of people everywhere and fantastic food. Having the Turkish bath experience is not to be missed. Called a "Hamam", the recently renovated hamam between the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosk is second to none.

    we gave in and got the 2 day hop on hop off big bus - as we kept getting lost. Everyone seems to go to the Hagia Sophia and the Topkapi Palace early but we found after lunch a lot quieter. if I - no when I go again I will definitely get a 3 day pass so no queuing. Must do a Bosphorus cruise
