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.

    Hagia Sophia itself is impressive, I certainly wouldn't recommend the so-called "museum," which is ridiculously overpriced and basically just a long, ridiculous video in a bunch of different rooms, played at the volume of a rock concert. Go watch a documentary. You'll learn a lot more.

    They turned this museum into a mosque under Erdogan.

    They turned this museum into a mosque under Erdogan. It has been a museum for almost 100 years, but now it is a mosque and you are not allowed to go and explore the place inside, but are confined to a small space at the ground floor of the building. Very, very sad!!

    There are many many well dressed VERY friendly and helpful men willing to show you around, avoid them, do not talk to them! They are all trying to sell you something. They can get aggressive if you engage them and the try to leave, best to avoid them and keep walking.

    Definitely gone down since it was turned back into a mosque from its museum status. You can't walk around snd see much of the things you were able to see before. The mosaics and freezes have been covered over again and the balconies are now out of bounds.

    We had a nice tour but all of the religious items are covered. It use to be a museum but is now a mosque. However, there is a very beautiful mosque nearby, the blue Mosque, so would have been nice to see the Byzantine church in its glory. There is a great museum of Hagia Sophia that gives you information on the history and it's one of the most high tech museums I have encountered, highly recommend it.

    Now that the Hagia Sofia has been designated as a mosque, entrance is free and the queues are horrendous. Try to get there before the crowds, even if it means missing breakfast - or join a reasonable-priced guided tour and skip queuing.

    Central location surrounded by restaurants and minutes away from the main attractions like Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar, etc. The staff at the hotel are so friendly and helpful, they provide that personal touch that make you feel comfortable. The owner was there practically every day during breakfast and talks to all the guests. Cannot recommend this hotel.enough.

    We had a great stay at Sareban Hotel Istanbul. Albeit the rooms are small, but they are very cosy and really clean. The beds were comfortable, the owners (Emir and his brother Mehmet) are superb hosts, very kind and friendly, always there to help with suggestions. Coffee and tea is always available. The hotel is in a nice and quiet location, very close (small walking distance) to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. Airport transfer is offered at a really good price. Highly recommend this hotel!

    The hotel is perfectly located within a short walk of many of the Old Town's main sights, including the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace, as well as restaurants, shops and a useful tram stop. Staff are unfailingly helpful and courteous, always keen to assist or provide useful information. The bed was extremely comfortable and Wifi always worked perfectly. We'd happily stay here again: this hotel has real charm and the customer service is faultless.

    The hotel was absolutely amazing. It is a cute little boutique hotel minutes away from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The location is ideal. But most importantly, the owners Ali and Tarkan are so friendly and helpful. They made an excellent stay perfect. Not to mention they made a delicious breakfast. Also, there is a beautiful rooftop terrace with a great sea view and sunset watching opportunities. The room was cozy, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom and everything else were super clean.
