Topkapi Palace
The home of Ottoman sultans for hundreds of years, Topkapi Palace is part of Istanbul’s UNESCO World Heritage Site. 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 the walls. Now a museum, it displays some of the most important artefacts of the Muslim world.

Ensure that you schedule enough time to visit.
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 tourGuest review byRolandSouth Africa - 8.0

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.Guest review byRichardCanada - 6.0

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.Guest review byJavokhirUzbekistan - 2.0
1500 Liras per person in June 2024.
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.Guest review byLindaSouth Africa

It was an easy walk into the old city with Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace & the Basilica Cistern and easy 10 minute walk. Loved our room with sea view balcony. No alcohol at the hotel but the Elisia Hotel restaurant is just around the corner with good cold meze, great prawns & drinks. Lunch at the Mula was good with great homemade lemonade. The staff were very attentive & helpful especially Naz who booked a great dinner out for us for my birthday.Guest review byAlexiaUnited Kingdom

The breakfast buffet was nice too, there was a lot of different foods (soups, vegetables, cheese, bread, fruits and sweets) to try which varied on a daily basis.Guest review byNadjaAustria
- From US$252.52 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.6Fabulous - What previous guests thought, 721 reviewsThe staff were amazing! So friendly and helpful. The roof terrace was a highlight of our trip. We bought refreshments and snacks (at the hotel's suggestion) and enjoyed a beautiful view of the city every evening. We went to a different rooftop restaurant during our trip and honestly the view from the hotel was better. The location is great - short walk to Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Basilica Cistern and Topkapi Palace. It was also close to a tram station so we could easily get over to the Galata Tower side.Guest review byLaura RoseUnited Kingdom

What guests said about Topkapi Palace:
Walk everywhere possible.
Walk everywhere possible. Visit Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Basilica cisterns and Topkapi Palace but go as early as possible as they get very crowded. For a trip on the Bosporus get the public ferry from under the Galata bridge to the last stop and go up to the castle and then get last ferry back to Istanbul. The first ferry is at 10.35 and the ferry back is at 3ish. It is very reasonable but there is no commentary but we thought it was excellent but be early to get a good view and position on top deck. We found the best restaurant to be Amedros. We went two times and the food is excellent and good value and the staff friendly attentive.Guest review byAnonymousIf you go to Topkapi Palace it is worth paying for a guided...
If you go to Topkapi Palace it is worth paying for a guided tour in order to appreciate it. Audio guides are available but in my experience these are often disappointing. The rooms are often empty and there is limited information to read. A guide brings the place to life.Guest review byRobertUnited KingdomBelongings of prophets, his companions, religious belongings...
