The service in this hotel is excellent… friendly and helpful. The garden setting is also lovely and the cuisine in the restaurant is first class… especially the chicken güveç! The only downside of my stay was a very noisy room on street level with vehicles, mopeds, scooters passing 4 feet from my window. Quite a racket so I slept badly for several nights. Otherwise a lovely experience. Otherwise

Our stay was perfect, we are from the western of Europe, so you have to see everything in perspective. Personally I, and my colleague as well, would not have a problem to go for a second time to the hotel.

Excellent location in Sultanahmet district. Excellent service, the staff is very nice and efficient. And the restaurant is on the top 10 best places to eat in the district. The food was indeed delicious! The exterior terrace is a little piece of heaven from the noisy streets. I would stay there again!

My friend and I stayed here for our first visit in Istanbul. We loved everything about the hotel. It is walking distance to all the big attractions. The service is above and beyond. It is very cute. And the food in the restaurant is good. Would definitely stay again.

everything was good except that it was not easy to find plus it was in the interior and the traffic was horrible. However, it is in walking distance to the Blue Mosque and Haggia Sophia, so if you are athletic, and likes the walks, you will be fine.. I say the staff are tops

This hotel is not what it used to be (i.e. wonderful). The breakfast is no longer excellent but sub par. The afternoon and evening restaurant has been leased to an independent company and while the food is good, it’s very pricey and the service leaves a lot to be desired. We were not offered water when we sat down and had to request it midway through the meal. There was no guidance offered on the menu. Our room was extremely noisy (on the front) and we got little sleep on the first night.

Excellent characterful hotel- built around a garden courtyard in which you can find the restaurant which is most excellent! Possibly the best in the area, good food supported by very attentive and pleasant staff. Speaking of which the staff were all absolutely wonderful special shout outs to Mrs Merve who sorted the transfer from airport and Mr Elvin who sorted out local events. Special thanks also to the hotel cat for providing cat related home comforts. Situated 5 minutes from the hippodrome and blue Mosque, say 10 mins from Hagia Sophia and 15 from Topkapi. 15 minutes the other way to the Grand Bazaar . I can whole heartedly recommend !

Hotel room was filthy, all furniture in room was very very old and in bad shape, in bathroom water was leaking from all over, sink faucet was leaking all the time, shower stall very very tiny you can not even move, tv in the room was not working

We are so pleased that we chose to stay at the Garden House Hotel. Our room was excellent. The air conditioning and internet worked brilliantly. The breakfast set us up for the day, meaning we only needed a snack for lunch before an evening meal. The staff were friendly and super efficient. It is in a brilliant area with the main sights within a walking distance. The only reservation that I would stress is that there isn’t a lift. Also it is at the bottom of a very steep hill. However, Istanbul is based on hills, so not a great place for people with mobility issues. Within walking distance there are lots of great restaurants. The hotel restaurant is extra special and we had our most memorable meal of the holiday. We were so pleased with the hotel, if we ever go back to Istanbul, we’d definitely look to stay here again!

All I am going to say is that the hotel is advertised incorrectly. There is no parking option. Paid street parking os the only option and that cost $20 per night - The hotel management absolutely did not care. The AC broke in our room that was at the top of the building, and the noise and temperature was unbearable - eventually we were moved to a different room. In both rooms the advertised Jacuzzi bath was not working properly. For €155 per night this was a disgrace. If you threw a stone in any direction you would hit 10 other hotel options that I would try before going back again.
