The most amazing place to stay at Istanbul. It's a lovely, cosy, comfortable hotel with top notch facilities and extremely polite and helpfulful staff. It feels like a home away from home in a new country. The food was amazing as well. Special thanks to Mr Selcuk for assisting us in every way possible and making the stay an unforgettable one!

Amazing hotel. Staff are very polite, breakfast is great and the garden view rooms provide a lovely view. We booked a garden view room for two and loved our 3 night stay. Only thing to note is that there is a bit of a steep walk (~7 to 10 mins) between the hotel and the blue mosque but Istanbul in general is quite hilly.

We've been hosted by YAKUP at the Garden house hotel, picking up our luggage, always available for us at any time. He was so nice from the start till our last minute as well as the rest of the team. 100% recommand you this place. The scenery is authentic, the rooms are spacious and clean with all confort needed. Housekeepers come every morning and do nman amazing job. They also have a transport service car to the airport at 45euros (about 710 TL) one way (per car and not per person so m very nice if you come as a family or friend group) and if you book reservationdirectly from the hotel you get a free ride from the airport to the hotel. Breakfast is included and simple but sill do the job. However the restaurant part of the hotel is PHENOMENAL! FOOD & service are amazing

Awesome place to stay. Staff is very friendly. First we had a room at first floor with the windows to the street it was quite loud at night. But next morning they changed our room with garden view. I already miss Istanbul but when I come back I will book at this hotel for sure.
