We had an excellent stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Upon our arrival, the receptionist immediately came to assist us with our luggage, which was greatly appreciated. The breakfast was delicious, with a variety of options, and the staff were quick to refill anything we needed. We enjoyed having breakfast on the terrace, which offered a stunning view of the sea and the Blue Mosque. The terrace was also a lovely spot in the afternoons, where the staff would kindly serve us Turkish tea and nuts. When they learned that my husband was unwell, they thoughtfully brought him free soup in the evening, which was a kind and much-appreciated gesture. The rooms were cleaned daily, and complimentary bottled water was always available. We stayed in a 4-bed room with a double bed and a bunk bed, both of which were quite comfortable. While the room didn’t have windows, it had excellent ventilation, and the air felt fresh throughout our stay. After we checked out, they kindly kept our luggage for us, and when we returned at 6 PM to pick it up, they invited us to wait on the terrace until our taxi arrived.

Blue Mosque

Constructed between 1609 and 1616, the striking Sultan Ahmed Mosque – or ‘Blue Mosque’ – is still a place of worship today. With no war victories to fund it, this opulent structure had to be paid for straight from the treasury – angering the Ottoman legal scholars of the time! Non-Muslim visitors are encouraged to visit, but should be respectful of the strict dress code.

The Blue Mosque — Sacred Stillness in a Lively World

The Blue Mosque — Sacred Stillness in a Lively World Stepping into the courtyard of the Blue Mosque (Sultanahmet Camii) is like crossing into another time. Its towering minarets and sweeping domes echo with centuries of prayer, artistry, and devotion — a masterpiece of Ottoman architecture that still breathes with the spirit of Islam. Inside, the air is silent despite the buzz of tourists. Light filters through stained-glass windows, dancing across thousands of hand-painted blue Iznik tiles. There’s a deep reverence here — not only for faith, but for heritage itself. You feel it in every arch, every call to prayer, every quiet footstep across the carpeted floor. And yet, outside the mosque, life unfolds with its own charm: cats stretch lazily in sun-warmed corners, dogs nap peacefully under shady trees. Meanwhile, travelers from every corner of the world struggle for the perfect angle — clicking away hundreds of “crazy” photos, but always with a sense of wonder. Despite the crowds, the atmosphere remains remarkably friendly and trustworthy. Locals smile. Tourists help each other with photos. There's an unspoken agreement to respect the moment — and the place. This isn’t just a tourist stop. It’s a symbol — of culture that knows how to honor the past without shutting the present out. And it leaves you walking away with something more than just pictures.

Ensure that you have clothing that covers your knees, apllicable to both men and women. Women additionally need to ensure that they have a headscarf to cover head and shoulders. They now charge for the coverings if you don't have

As a Christian, first time in a mosque, I was impressed.

As a Christian, first time in a mosque, I was impressed. The colors and architecture are impressive. I was lucky enough to have the accommodation 5min away so I could enjoy the beauty before going in, one night before. I recognize I was disguised by the non-Muslims that are not able to respect other people beliefs and gets in the prayer area just for pictures. Pity them. You should never put your pictures before the place you are, no matter what.

One of the most sought after architectural wonders.

One of the most sought after architectural wonders. It’s free. But dress appropriately. No bare shoulders, no bare knees and women need a scarf to cover their heads. Best to go prepared but you will also need given disposable covers at the entrance.

We decided to stay at this hotel for our wedding in Istanbul because our wedding venue was on the same street. The rooms were spacious and had beautiful view on the Bosphorus, the location is right next to Blue Mosque. The staff took amazing care of us and our wedding guests in this important time, they were very helpful and available and we really appreciate that, thank you!

As a first time visitor to Istanbul, we wanted to stay close to the historic centre. The hotel is close to a corner, so very easy to navigate to after a day sightseeing. All the main sites were within a 10 minute walk, Grand Bazaar, Blue Mosque and the Hagis Sophia… also walking distance to the harbour. Staff were helpful, lots of toiletries and immaculately clean. Beds and pillows very comfortable.

We had a wonderful stay at Magnaura Palace Hotel! The location is unbeatable — just a short walk from Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, and Topkapı Palace, yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful and cozy. The rooms are charming and comfortable; One of the highlights was the terrace view — watching over Istanbul’s historic skyline was magical. The staff was warm, attentive, and always ready to help with suggestions or arrangements.

This was a lovely small hotel in a great part of Istanbul away from the bustle but 5 mins stroll to the Blue Mosque. We had a room with a large terrace that had fantastic views. Breakfast was a highlight each morning due to the amazing selection of savoury and sweet food plus the amazing view out to the Bosphorus. Everyone in the hotel couldn't have been more helpful.

Very cosy self-contained apartment the used to be the home of the owners - and Nesrin (owner) was charming and very helpful. Incredible location just 100m from the Blue Mosque (visible from the roof terrace) and Old Town Istanbul. Surrounded by great cafes and restaurants, including the pizza parlour on the ground floor, with Farhat the super-friendly manager. The roof terrace is accessible and has wonderful views of Marmara. Overall I highly recommend!

The location of the apartment in a traditional house was the highlight of our stay. The apartment was well-equipped with everything needed, very clean, with high-quality linens and a stunning view of the Blue Mosque. The hosts helped us find a parking spot nearby, and overnight we were able to move the car right in front of the property as the street was clear. This will definitely be our preferred accommodation for our next visit to Istanbul
