Located in a quiet corner of Sirkeci, right next to one of the entrances of Gulhane Park, Gulhane Garden Hotel was an excellent choice.. just minutes walk from the things most people come to Istanbul for, but also much quieter and peaceful than other hotels in the area. And the woman who worked at the reception was VERY friendly and helpful. And, by the way, since we celebrated my wife's birthday during the 6 days we stayed there, it will always be a pleasant memory!

The owners were amazing so hospitable and kind. Everything was amazing hotel was clean, very cute, helpful, friendly, comfy beds etc. Amazing 100% would come back. The best staff and owners we felt right at home. Location is amazing close to everything. The staff went out of their way to accomdate us and make sure we were happy. And we didn't feel like we were being tricked as tourists. Our room was a king bed and 2 twin beds. So it's not tiny but not huge. It was just right for its use. It's very close to the tram to get everywhere. And easily accessible by taxi as well. We went to another hotel in the area before and didn't have an amazing experience like we did here.

Topkapi Palace

The home of Ottoman sultans for hundreds of years, Topkapi Palace is one of Istanbul’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Dating back to 1459, this sprawling royal residence once covered a huge stretch of the shore – and even had its own hospital, mint, and mosques within its walls! Now a museum, it displays some of the most important artifacts of the Muslim world.

As a traveler, I found this place very attractive and enjoyable to visit. The atmosphere is pleasant and well suited for people who like exploring city locations and popular spots. It is easy to access and fits well into a city sightseeing plan. The area feels lively, interesting, and well organized, making it a good stop while visiting the city. My name is NIMAX, and as a tourist from France and Iran who travels around the world, I appreciate places like this that offer a positive and smooth visiting experience. Overall, it is a good place to visit and worth recommending to other travelers.

Don't take a guided tour for Topkapi Palace because you will be rushed through and can't take the time to savour all the delights. There are English signs that explain areas and you can also download an audio guide if you wish. Make sure to visit the Harem. Don't miss the kitchens on the side. We took four hours to really enjoy this palace.

Ensure that you schedule enough time to visit. The recommended time is not enough to spend time with everything. Ensure that you include Harem as part of your tour. An absolute must see to appreciate the rest of the tour

i know the country is struggling and that they also have to do what they can to reduce the hordes tramping through Topkapi, but you have to be on the level of the British Museum or the Louvre with a once-in-a-lifetime traveling exhibit to justify these kinds of prices. I'm very interested in Turkish history as well as an archaeology buff and it didn't merit the investment. i think they should cut the price in half, offer a steep discount for seniors, and cut off ticket sales at a certain volume each hour.

1,700 lira per person, payable in cash or card (debit/credit) in TL, Euros, or USD. The free audio guide requires you leave your passport as deposit (not $), so be sure to bring yours. There is only one place inside that require women to wear a shawl and they have freebies you can use at the entrance to those rooms. The harem is included in this price, NO need to pay an extra 600 TL. Budget at least a good couple hours just to tour the place.

The hotel is ideally located in the heart of the Old Town, within walking distance of major attractions such as the Grand Bazaar, Hagia Sophia, and the Topkapi Palace. Although the hotel does not offer breakfast, it provides good Wi-Fi connectivity throughout the property. One of the highlights is the beautiful view over the Bosphorus, which adds to the overall experience.

The location is really great if you have only a few days in Istanbul and the plan is to see the major historic sites in Sultanahmet and the Golden Horn area, e.g., the Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace, etc. The beds were quite comfy. It is nice that the Sura Design's guests are allowed to use the spa facilities at the main Sura hotel across the street (the 5 star hotel) free of charge as well.

Location is excellent. Literally a couple of minutes to Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace. Rooms are very small but they are more than sufficient for what they’re designed for, sleeping. Service is great. Everyone goes above and beyond to help. Turkish people’s hospitality is the best. You are their guests and they treat you as such.

Excellent location, within walking distance from the main attractions (Haghia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace). The staff is super friendly and make you feel really welcome, they also have a presentation with the main attractions that was super helpful to know what, how and when go to the attractions. They were always super friendly and helpful. The breakfast also had a great variety of sweet and savory dishes. The rooms were perfectly clean and had plenty of space. An excellent option to stay when you come to Istanbul!!
