8.6/10 Excellent! (15 reviews)
Property has a couple of buildings. We were first put in an old building with sewer smell, strange bathroom spacing configuration. Our faucets were loose, lights were flickering. We were able to move to a new building once space there became available. Rooms were newer, nicer but very small. We were ok with that and had a good stay. Free Breakfast was very nice. Overall stay was good for the money, as long as it is in a new building.

What we could see was fantastic but as with many of Istanbul’s famous sights being extensively renovated
5/5 - Excellent
Verified traveller
Unfortunately, two thirds of this building is under renovation, so only a few mosaics may be viewed and none of the exterior.
3/5 - Okay
Verified traveller
The museum is in the middle of a major rennovation and more than half of it is inaccesable.
