Everything you need to know about Eyüp Sultan Mosque
Stay at Cagaloglu Palace Hotel, a boutique property housed in a 17th-century Ottoman mansion just a 5-minute walk from Eyüp Sultan Mosque. This heritage hotel offers breathtaking views of the mosque and the Bosphorus Strait, blending traditional Iznik tilework with modern luxury. Guests can book private early-morning visits to the mosque, avoiding crowds and experiencing its serene spiritual atmosphere. The hotel also provides curated cultural tours to nearby historic sites like the Golden Horn and Galata Tower.
The most convenient option is taking the Istanbul Metro M2 Line to "Eyüp Station", a 15-minute ride from Taksim or Eminönü. Exit the station and walk 8 minutes to the mosque’s entrance. Alternatively, use a taxi or Uber, though traffic congestion during peak hours may delay travel. Parking is available nearby but limited due to narrow streets in the historic district. Combine your visit with a stop at the adjacent Church of St. Mary of the Spring and Mehmed II Tomb for a rich historical itinerary.
Beyond visiting the Eyüp Sultan Mosque, guests can join guided morning prayer sessions led by local scholars to explore Islamic rituals and history. Nearby, hands-on workshops offer Turkish carpet weaving classes and Arab coffee brewing experiences with master artisans. On weekends, vibrant local bazaars sell handmade ceramics, spices, and traditional clothing, providing immersive insight into the daily life and craftsmanship of Istanbul’s eastern district.

Guests enjoy a private access route to the mosque and 24-hour security, making it ideal for travelers seeking authentic local immersion and spiritual tranquility.
Eyüp Sultan Mosque is open to the public without reservation, welcoming visitors from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM daily. For quiet reflection or photography during early morning or evening hours, guests may request special access by contacting the mosque administration in advance. Female visitors must cover shoulders and legs and wear a headscarf. Photography is prohibited inside, and visitors must remove shoes before entering—bring a small shoe bag for storage.
After visiting Eyüp Sultan Mosque, walk to the Mehmed II Tomb to learn about the Ottoman Empire’s founder. Continue along the Bosphorus shoreline to reach the Church of St. Mary of the Spring, a Byzantine-era site with red-brick walls reflecting centuries of history.

Staying at The Galata Istanbul Hotel - MGallery for two nights was a delightful experience. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk uphill leads you directly to the iconic Galata Tower, with charming little shops and cafes along the way. Heading downhill brings you to the famous fish roll shop, which we visited twice—absolutely worth it! The hotel itself is uniquely designed, nestled on a hillside with three floors above ground and three below, creating a spacious and intriguing layout. The entrance features a beautiful carpet mat and there's an inviting dessert café right inside—perfect for a sweet treat or relaxing moment. Staff were friendly and attentive, and the overall ambiance felt warm and authentic. Everything matched my expectations and even exceeded them in several ways. If the price were slightly lower, this would be an even better value. Highly recommended for travelers who appreciate charm, convenience, and a touch of local character.
My two-night stay at the Istanbul Marriott Hotel Sisli turned out to be one of the most bizarre experiences I've had across multiple countries. On the first day, after using the restroom, I noticed the entire toilet wall was streaked with dried urine—extremely unpleasant. I immediately called reception, and a cleaning staff member arrived shortly afterward. He was diligent and thoroughly cleaned the area, so I gave him 100 Turkish Lira as a tip. During breakfast the next morning, a hotel manager approached me for guest feedback. I mentioned my concern from the previous night, and she listened attentively, took notes, and promised to address it by upgrading our room. I returned to the front desk and confirmed we'd switch rooms that evening. Around 10 PM, I was informed we’d been moved to the highest floor. My spirits lifted—surely this meant a better room? But then came the twist: the elevator didn’t go all the way to the 33rd floor. We had to transfer at the 30th or 31st floor, walk down a short corridor, and take a small secondary elevator. When we finally reached our new room, the disappointment hit hard—smaller than our original room, bed pushed closer together, no desk or sofa, and the bathroom cut in half. This wasn’t an upgrade—it felt like a joke. We asked to return to our original room and retraced our steps through the confusing elevator system. Later, my colleague requested tea, and although they said yes right away, nothing arrived for over an hour. I had to call again before someone showed up. Throughout the entire stay, the hand soap bottles on the sink remained dusty and untouched—even after daily housekeeping visits. The hygiene standards were clearly lacking. On the final two nights, when I pulled back the bedsheet to sleep, I found a stain. Too tired to complain, I just avoided that spot. At the lounge, a female server ignored me completely when I asked to settle the bill. I had to call out three times before she even acknowledged me, and only after I returned from smoking nearby did she finally hand over the invoice. Despite giving at least 100 TL in tips daily, the service, cleanliness, and overall experience fell far short of five-star expectations. Honestly, this Marriott doesn’t come close. If you’re considering a Marriott stay in Istanbul, please look elsewhere—this location offers terrible value for money.
The hotel is spotless, with friendly staff and excellent service throughout. Everything was well-maintained and thoughtfully arranged. It’s definitely worth every penny—clean, comfortable, and conveniently located near public transit. Would highly recommend and definitely book again.

Stayed here twice and couldn’t be happier. The room was spacious with a great layout, and the staff went above and beyond—so friendly and helpful. On my second visit, I was upgraded to a better room and treated to a delicious complimentary dessert that actually tasted better than what you’d find at a local shop! The only minor downside is that it’s a bit of a walk from the metro station—about 8 to 10 minutes—but honestly, it’s totally manageable. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and full of charm, with plenty of cafes and local spots nearby. A short ride or a quick taxi gets you anywhere you need to go. Overall, an excellent value and a truly enjoyable stay—I’ll definitely come back.
Staying at Muyan Suites was an absolutely delightful experience. The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly, going the extra mile to make us feel at home—especially when they kindly lent us a power adapter for our phones. The rooms were spotlessly clean and well-maintained, and we appreciated being able to choose from available room options upon check-in, which added a nice personal touch. The breakfast buffet was a real highlight—fresh, varied, and delicious. From local specialties to international favorites, every bite was satisfying. Located in a convenient part of Istanbul, it’s easy to explore the city by public transit. Overall, this place offers exceptional value and hospitality. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul and looking for a comfortable, hassle-free stay.

Plus, there are plenty of great dining options nearby—perfect for trying authentic Turkish cuisine. This place offers excellent value and a genuine local vibe, making it ideal for travelers who want to explore beyond the tourist hubs. Highly recommended!
My stay at Victory Hotel & Spa Istanbul was absolutely delightful. The breakfast was outstanding—fresh, diverse, and well-prepared. The spa facilities were relaxing and impeccably clean, and the gym and swimming pool were top-notch, with excellent maintenance throughout. Located in a prime spot, the hotel is just steps away from both the tram and metro, making it super easy to explore the city without hassle. That said, I noticed the lighting in my room and around the pool area could be improved—it felt a bit dim at times. Also, the Wi-Fi signal in the room was quite weak, which made streaming or video calls a bit frustrating. Still, these minor drawbacks didn’t take away from the overall experience. With its great location, superb amenities, and warm hospitality, this hotel offers incredible value for money. I’d happily return and recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul.
Staying at 38 Hotel was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our needs—when I asked if we could extend our check-out time by two hours due to my mom’s age and a shuttle scheduled for 5:30 PM, they kindly agreed without hesitation. The location is absolutely unbeatable; it's just a short walk to Osmanbey Metro Station, making it super easy to explore Istanbul on foot or via public transit. Breakfast was generous and varied, offering plenty of options to suit different tastes. Plus, Carrefour is literally right around the corner, so grabbing essentials or snacks is a breeze. Clean rooms, friendly service, and great value—all reasons why I’d definitely stay here again.
