9.6/10 Exceptional! (1,000 reviews)
We were told that rooms were not available for upgrade. We were placed in a very old room with an extremely small shower that barely fit one person. The A/C unit was loud and some nights it blew hot air. Very old hotel that needs a major update/ renovation. I have to admit that the small restaurant staff were extremely nice and accommodating. I would not recommend this property to anyone.

4 Nov 2019Dripping in gold everywhere you look! No photography allowed inside (and they will make you delete the pictures if caught so don't try!). The palace is very 'over the top' but a perfect example of the wealth of the Sultans. The main staircase is jaw-dropping! The clock museum (on the grounds) was worth a visit too. Beautiful gifts and examples of craftsmanship from around the world. When we went the glass house/ crystal house (I forget what it was called) was closed for renovation. However, there was an aviary you could visit. I highly recommend you buy the full ticket as the Harem section contains all the bedrooms which you cannot visit on the palace ticket alone. Tip: skip the queue and walk just inside the main gates to the grounds and there are two ticket machines. You can buy your tickets there and go straight through security. Second tip: avoid the overcharged 'skip the line VIP ticket'. We said no to some aggressive people trying to make us pay extra and instead bought the tickets from the machines described above and still skipped the queue on our own.
