The hotel is walking distance from many of the main sights and attractions, but the area itself is very quiet. The area around the main sights is very crowded and loud, but it is very quiet around the hotel. You also can't really hear the mosques in the morning, so none of us experienced any problems with sleeping. The hotel itself was not loud, but I suppose that might be different in a busier season. We didn't really have any loud neighbors, even though there were families in the hotel at the same time with us. Families with kids seem to like the hotel, but it is also popular with couples of all age. The rooms were as promised and very clean. The room with the Bosphorus view indeed had a view, and it was a great view of the Galata tower and the Bosphorus itself and the boats on it. There is tea and coffee in the room that are refilled at every cleaning, as well as free water bottles. The staff is incredibly friendly. The breakfast is not the same every day, which was great for us because we stayed for 9 days. There are plenty of fruit and vegetables, so it is possible to have a healthy breakfast. My mother had her birthday during the trip, and the hotel staff got her a cake and sang happy birthday at breakfast on the day. We did not ask for it, so the staff had to plan it themselves and notice that her birthday is during the trip (she wasn't even the one to make the reservation). This was very thoughtful and sweet, and the cake was delicious. The hotel has buttons you can press to not be disturbed or to request the room to be cleaned, instead of the usual sign on the door, so that was pretty convenient. I think this hotel offers great value for money, and I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family if they visit Istanbul. I have definitely been in much worse, but more expensive hotels before.

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.

    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.

    Too expensive ticket, but if you enter, do eat before entering and grab with yourself a bigger bottled water. There is no place to get a water inside, one spot sells drinks at multiple times the normal price. The trip may last around 3 hours so eat well beforehand. Really recommend going early, as later in the day and after 2 + hours after opening, it gets too crowdy.

    1500 Liras per person in June 2024. We had to pay this price for kids aged 7, 9 and 11 as well. You only get discount if you show passports. Overpriced and too many people. Museum is worth visting but not at that price.

    The location is great if you would like to visit places like Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sophia, The Blue Mosque, and Bisilica Cistern. The use of Alcohol isn't allowed inside the property. Beddings are changed on request. It's a typical bugdet option. Stay here in a room and save some money for other expenses like tickets for sightseeing. The dorm option is cool, even cheaper.

    Great location in a touristic area, within walking distance to Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, and the Grand Bazaar. It’s also very easy to get around by tram. The reception team – Sefa, Çiya, and Süleyman – were absolutely amazing: very friendly, kind, and always helpful. They took care of everything right away without needing reminders. It was such a pleasure to meet them and stay here. Highly recommended!

The breakfast was delicious and kitchen staff were helpful and friendly. The rooms were adequate size and clean. Our family of 4 occupied adjoining rooms and really enjoyed our time living in Magnaura House while being tourists in Istanbul. This hotel is highly recommended for sightseeing in Istanbul.

    experience. The staff was extremely kind and helpful — we were 30 minutes late at checkout after visiting Topkapi Palace, and they were very understanding with no issues at all. Breakfast was fit for a sultan! Mr. Seçkin Kaya, the Food & Beverage Manager, welcomed us with impeccable service. The Turkish coffee with lokum (Turkish delight) was the perfect final touch. Everything was authentic and delicious. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an elegant, heartfelt stay in the center of Istanbul.
