The palace itself is magnificent but the management is horrible.
1. They accept only cash. Online booking website is not available.
2. They will not accept UPI, Debit/credit cards. But a consolation is that the ATM is just outside one of the gates
3. We went on 31st December 2023 so it was very crowded. We just kept moving wherever the crowd moved, like in Mumbai local :)
4. They charge 100₹ per person which is a bit too much honesty. Parking fees separate.
Palace itself is beautiful and very well maintained. One visit to this place is worth especially on a weekday when you can soak it better in lesser crowd.

Nice place.
Best days to visit : Monday to Friday
Avoid Weekends and Public Holidays. Gets very crowdy
Timings : till 5:30 pm only
You need to take an entry ticket for ₹100 per person and then enter, deposit your shoes/slippers and then go for a tour inside the palace. After the tour, you come back, collect your slippers and go towards the garden area (in front of the palace).
The real beauty of the palace can be seen when the lights are up. Slowly slowly they will turn on the lights and at 7 pm sharp, the palace will be lighted up fully. The lights are there from 7 pm till 9 pm. Musical show will also start from 7 pm.
My suggestion would be to enter the palace around 4:30-4:45. Go for a tour inside come back by 5:30 or so. And then stay till 7 in the garden roaming outside and once you see the lights and music show, you can leave.

Beautiful beautiful beautiful. We travel all over the world to see beautiful castles and palaces - this definitely is among the great ones, right here in our India. Highly recommend a tour guide - helps understand the history better and shows the things that we would otherwise miss.
Its a good historical palace maintained by Government. There are many old paintings pasted on its wall which tells its palace history and day today life of King, Queens, their children and how they live, what they wear, everything about them. Parking space is available here. Tickets is 100/- per head for adults. Inside the palace everyone has to go bare foot. Guides are available at outside hire them and get amaze by this palace.
Wow very big palace, well maintained. It was fully crowded when we visited. It's better if you visit on non-public holidays. Can spend more time on watching every floors. Night palace lightings are more attractive. This you should not miss. When we visited Flower show was there.
Spectacular view of the Palace. One of the master pices of India. This palace is very beautiful and very well maintained. One of the best places in Karnataka. This place has so much of historical significance.
Must visit.

It is a great place to visit. The place was very beautiful architecture wise but it is usually crowded on the weekend and public holidays. I recommend you to better visit in a weekday in the morning times so that you can have your leisure time to view the pace and its beauty.
I also want to share my experience over the palace the architecture of the palace go in deeper into the palace was very beautiful outside. It is a normal view point where we will see the palace image in the Internet so please do visit into the Palace.

This is the main attraction and beauty of Mysuru. People including foreigners visit this place. Must visit place. If you are staying in Sunday night, must not miss the illumination view from 7-8pm. I was lucky to see the beauty of this palace in sunlight, evening light and special Sunday evening light. It was one of my life time experience.
The Mysore palace is a beautiful heritage of India that is a must visit! The exquisitely designed interior is a marvel to see and experience! It's opulence is at par with any other palace worldwide. Do go and see it if you haven't already. Visiting at Dussehra time is even more worthwhile as the entire palace is lit up in the evening and you get to see the whole city of Mysore decorated! Loved it!
All together It was a good experience. The lighting was mesmerizing. On the other hand it was over crowded. Management needs to work on how to handle such a crowd. Need to have proper barricades at least at the shoe counter. Ticket price - Rs100 adult. The lightning on the beautiful palace will appear at 7:00pm.
It is a museum, so if you are interested in historical things, you can go for it.
Also this place is huge, and I loved most the interior design and crafts. A great place for photos too.
In any case, it's worth a visit.
There is a ticket to go inside the museum like inside the palace but you can roam freely and click photos, without tickets as the place is huge .

Palace is like a magical time machine in the middle of Karnataka, India. It's a stunning building with lots of intricate designs that tell stories about the past. Inside, there are beautiful rooms and a special hall called Durbar Hall that's really impressive. When the sun sets, the palace lights up and looks even more amazing. The gardens are pretty too, and the people who work there are really helpful. If you want to see what a real palace looks like and learn about history, Mysore Palace is the place to go.

This is beautiful palace . It’s was very nice at night because of lighting. You have to reach place before 5 to enter inside the palace but Until 8 clock they allow to enter premises but you can expect huge crowd inside . Inside there were a beautiful temple also there it also will close by 8 PM .
Well maintained and clean. The palace is really beautiful with a big garden type area in front. It looks more beautiful at night with all light's decorations. Worth visiting. Though try to buy tickets online in advance, especially during weekends. Try not to go there in summer as it gets really hot inside.
Visited last weekend with friends. For the palace they will charge 100 rupees/person and accept only cash payment.
For the light show in the evening 120 rupees/person.

Beautiful palace. Visited for the first time. Beautiful designs and unfortunately we couldn't see the view when the beautiful lights were on. Make sure to know the timings when they on the light. On Sunday they have it for one hour I guess from 8-9. Ticket price is 100/- per head
