The hotel staff is exceptionally great, did not experience such pro-activity and hospitality in any other place. They made some good recommendations for example Turkish night cruise tour, helped us with directions, provided us with umbrella and on the last day we had 5am early check out so they also made us sandwiches as we would miss the breakfast, booked us a taxi etc. Location of the hotel is pretty great, everything is walking distance. Great breakfast. I would like to especially thank EFE from the hotel staff, he was very prompt and helpful. No complaints. Definitely recommend it.

My stay at the Golden Horn Bosphorus Hotel was truly exceptional. The hotel is a gem, perfectly located with breathtaking views of the Bosphorus and a warm, inviting ambiance.

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 was very close to several tourist sites. It's between the Hagia Sophia/Blue mosque and Topkapi palace. The staff were extremely knowledgeable about the area, and helped us with basic tourist questions (how to put money on a train card, etc. ). The morning breakfast was amazing, and based out of a restaurant that we later had a fantastic dinner at. We did a tour that the hotel helped us book. The hotel is a 2 minute walk from the nearest tram stop. All in all, I cannot praise them enough.

    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!

    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.
