Bahçesi çok güzel ve huzur veriyor. Sarayın içi buram buram eskilik kokuyor bazı bölümlerde koku ağırlaşıyor ama yapacak bişey yok. Rehber grubu girişte toplayıp gezdiriyor turun hızından anı yaşayamı... more »

Garden is so beautiful and peaceful. Inside the Palace reeks of old smells of some sections fragrance heavy but there's nothing to do. Who is picking up faster than the tour guide group you just live in the moment at the entrance, but the rooms are similar to each other you're not missing out on anything for that. 140 m2 of Hereke carpet marveled. Be sure everyone needs to summarize National Saraylarımızdan.

Introduction-5, normal 15 TL. There's a garden can be considered beautiful and rather large. Allowed in some areas the Museum entrance walk upwards towards the Bosphorus Bridge exit to go out into the forbidden. Inside the Palace is very cool, Summer Palace outside type is recommended, guided sightseeing tour in 20-25 minutes, a friend was good business contacts. You can take your drinks, have a cafe, where you can dine out more than 50% of the price you can think of it as.

Free tours and amazing placement. You can take as many photos as you can on outside but in inside you can't take photos, its forbidden. The garden is amazing. Inside is even more amazing. Great place to visit if you are in Istanbul.

This palace was built for summer use, but later this palace became a kind of prison for the former sultan. It is reminiscent of Dolmabahçe palace as an architect. The location, the architecture and the design are wonderful

Onto the Asian side of Istanbul and we find another magnificent, well decorated posh looking Palace similar inside to the Dolmabahce to some extent. Certainly no expenses spared in decorating this one. Close to the Bosphorus bridge. Well maintained place. Coffee shop available. No individual entries allowed, the tours inside are all guided for security reasons. Well worth it. Toilets available.

Where to stay in Istanbul

The bustling downtown core of old Istanbul is the popular choice among tourists wanting a short walking distance to the city's biggest attractions. Here you'll find hostel-style accommodations and reasonably priced and traditionally decorated hotels, as well as bed and breakfasts and inns with views overlooking the sea. Though often the most affordable, accommodations in the old city can be very overrun with tourists and street solicitors. If you seek a more relaxed stay, consider lodging near Taksim Square. This new, trendy neighborhood is a short 15-20 minute ride from the old city, but puts you closer to restaurants, shopping, and nightlife. Though the newer area of the city is a bit more upscale, you'll also find moderately priced hotels and some hostels. Look for luxury hotels in the western suburbs close to the airport, overlooking the banks of Bosphorus.
