The hotel is located in Sultanahmet, one of the oldest and most historical neighborhoods of Istanbul. It's five minutes walk to the Hippodrome, and the wonderful Blue Mosque, and ten minutes from the Basilica Cistern and Agia Sofia (Topkapi is not much further) - as consequence, you have the chance to immerse yourself into the history every day. Go the other direction, and the fascinating Small Agia Sofia is within 5 minutes walk: I recommend it for its peaceful gardens, and its ancient architecture. Five more minutes and you are on the Sea of Marmara. The neighborhood felt safe at all times. There are restaurants, but the hotel's restaurant seems better and it is - for the prices in the area - competitive. We were delighted by the welcome. The reception staff was consistently polite and helpful. The concierge, particularly a young man named Ahmet, are very friendly, and kind, at all times. You will also meet an older man at the door, and we were always greeted by his amiable greeting - no rain, all good. We found our room to be very clean if a bit small (I was travelling with my son, so the bed felt a bit small - it would be great for a couple). I liked the traditional furniture and loved the embroidery of the curtains and red pillows. The hall is nice and cozy, and the veranda and restaurant, in the garden, are pleasant: I liked the way tables are set. Breakfast is rich, in line with Turkish tradition - lots of vegetables, cheese, and other delicacies. We ate at the restaurant many times: it is a bit expensive if you do not pay attention, but the food choice is excellent, We tried the hot starters (honey pastry is great, loved by both of us), the lahmacun (not liked by son, I did), the baked rice pudding (loved it) and many other things. The bread which welcomes you is hot and tasty, and the complimentary pomegranate or Turkish tea with baklava is a great surprise.

Garden house hotel is tucked away in the Sultan Ahmet area, within walking distance to the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and the historical Roman centre of Istanbul. The representation on the web site is close to reality and it has a wonderful authentic feel. They have 4 floors and no elevator and the surrounds are hilly so I do not recommend it to anyone who may experience difficulty walking or climbing stairs. Having said that I had bad knees but managed ok, just took my time. Staff here are very welcoming and will do anything to make your stay a happy and comfortable. Having the restaurant attached was a bonus. We enjoyed the breakfasts and the dinners that we had and the restaurant staff were super, especially Khadir who would respond with "why not?" to any of our requests. The rooms are clean, spacious and comfortable although "aged" everything was well maintained. Feedback from friends on the 3rd floor suggested that they had problems with water pressure at times but on the 2nd floor we had no problems at all. Although we had pre-booked tours and planned our stay the hotel reception were also willing to do this for us. They did organise a tour of the Hippodrome Cistern and museum, which is under the Nakkas carpet and pottery store nearby. It was well worth the visit, as the hippodrome history is part and parcel of the History of Constantinople. Finally, the cats. The cats are part of Turkish culture as are the community dogs. You will see them everywhere and I think it is wonderful how the Turkish people and approach these animals we found it an addition to our stay.

This hotel goes above and beyond from the moment you arrive! There's always somebody by the door greeting you with a smile, and everyone inside are just as friendly - especially Selçuk! We had originally booked a standard double room, but he upgraded us immediately to a suite with a view at no extra cost, simply because he wanted us to enjoy our first visit to Istanbul as much as possible. He was always around for any questions we had and able to organize trips and activities easily. The room itself was also beautiful - huge, extremely clean and tidy with two balconies and tasteful decor. Cleaning staff respected any signs on the door and left the room spotless daily! The breakfast was delicious, the servers were extremely hospitable and we loved that it stays open quite late! The whole premises is stunning - a very warm and friendly home base in such a central location in Istanbul! There's also 24/7 tea, coffee and biscuits for free in the lobby - much appreciated!

I was travelling solo and the location was ideal for me. It is a short walk from Sultanahmet square, I could come back to the hotel when I wanted and go back again during the day. Also lots of restaurants are a short walk away. Hotel staff is friendly and helpful, they greeted me with a smile throughout my stay. They also guided me about different tours and experiences I should consider- as it was my first visit to the city. My room was cleaned everyday, adequate facilities were available in the hotel. Their breakfast is lovely and they serve it in a beautiful seating area, giving you a good start of the day. There is also a 24hr free coffee machine for residents to use! I would definitely stay here again if I come back in future.

Lovely hotel set very close to famous sites such as the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. Good restaurants and a tram station less than 15 minutes walk away; Grand Bazaar also easily reachable on foot. Lots of shops in the area selling a range of souvenirs, from scarves to caps to Turkish tea cups. The hotel's own restaurant is also very good. We were able to book airport pickup through Booking.com's messaging service; the hotel responded quickly to all our questions. Our room had a lovely little balcony and there was a lot of greenery throughout the hotel. We even enjoyed a visit on the balcony from one of the many ubiquitous cats in the city.
