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.

This was the most incredible part of Istanbul.
This was the most incredible part of Istanbul. Again ensure proper attire or you have to pay for covering. The interplay of Christianity and the Muslim faith, and neither chose to desicrate the other. Just be aware that you will only be able to visit the upper section unless you're a practising muslim.Guest review byRolandSouth Africa - 4.0

Its a pity that such an UNESCO monument was turned into a Muslim Cami. And it is discrimination that all non Muslims cannot visit the whole area. As a Greek and orthodox I felt very sorry of the destructions of all the inside ( almost). This should be a museum open for all ,independent on their beliefs. Civilization is not looking into beliefs. Should be respected within centuries.Guest review byAnthiGreece - 10.0
Oh, what a delight.
Oh, what a delight. I’m an open minded Christian so I appreciate such a wonderful and special place is still in place. You have to admitted if it wasn’t the Muslims it (probably) shared the fate of Acropolis. Is a wonder it does not crumble during times. Really. I was not able to take two straight pictures in a row, such a marvel of architecture is it, patch after patch. Is not the Pantheon, is not Basilica di San Pietro, but is still there. I also have to appreciate they respect the history and prior faith and do not cover part of the old (Christinas) paintings.Guest review byOvidiuBTBRomania - 6.0

The history is stunning and the main room is beautiful as well as the mosaics. However, I was underwhelmed considering they now charge to go in and you cannot go on the main floor (a result of it being turned into a mosque). Also the carpet choice doesn't help with the overall site. I think the other mosques were better. Also, there are LONG queues to buy a ticket and then queues to go in. I would recommend going to the Hagia Sophia experience museum (across the Obelisk) and buy tickets there.Guest review byMaya - 4.0

Insanely long lines deterred us, although you can take great shot elsewhere. Whether you are a man or woman, you need to cover up. Ladies with shawl, long sleeves, and down to ankles. Men with pants and at least a t-shirt (no tank tops). Otherwise, no entry.Guest review byRichardCanada - 8.0

Once the seat of Christianity under Constantine the Great where Istanbul's original name came from (Constantinople) Still a very spiritual place where Christianity and Islam combine Worth a visit but go early many, many want to go. Take your time and view the murials on the upper floorGuest review byThe TravellerSouth Africa

We loved the convenient location close to major attractions such as the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque. There were plenty of restaurants and bars close by ,as well as the traditional bazaar.Guest review byArgyroUnited Kingdom
- From US$63.49 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.6Fabulous - What previous guests thought, 353 reviewsWe were three friends visiting Istanbul and Crowned Exclusive Hotel turned out to be the perfect choice. The location is amazing — right in Fatih, close to Hagia Sophia, the Grand Bazaar, and easy access to everything by tram. What made our stay even better was the hospitality: the staff were always kind, helpful, and made us feel at home from the first day. It’s not a luxury place, but it’s clean, comfortable, and has everything you need. For us, the combination of the emplacement and the warm welcome made it a solid 10/10.Guest review bySamadiMorocco

Excellent value for money, awesome location - few minutes walk away to popular attractions (Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace etc), near to the tram line, near to popular restaurants in Sultanahmet area. This is also a very generous hotel in terms of variety of their breakfast. I was surprised of the selection and quality/taste, good job guys.

Blue Mosque & Hagia Sofia are both jaw droppingly stunning inside. Avoid the huge tour group queues & go straight to the top of the line, else you'll wait for hours. I was in (in both places), in 10 minutes without being pushy.Guest review byAnonymousLots of people everywhere and fantastic food.
Lots of people everywhere and fantastic food. Having the Turkish bath experience is not to be missed. Called a "Hamam", the recently renovated hamam between the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosk is second to none.Guest review byJamesUnited StatesGetting a museum card or looking for ticket kiosks (...
Getting a museum card or looking for ticket kiosks (especially in the enterance of Hagia Sofia and Topkapı Palace) will let you pass hundreds of people in line waiting to get a ticket.Guest review byAslıNetherlandsJust imagine the city lived for four imperials!

we gave in and got the 2 day hop on hop off big bus - as we kept getting lost. Everyone seems to go to the Hagia Sophia and the Topkapi Palace early but we found after lunch a lot quieter. if I - no when I go again I will definitely get a 3 day pass so no queuing.
