The Rose Garden is more expensive than some of the comparable hotels in the Sultanahmet (Old City) area of Istanbul, and you get a bit more for your money. It's a nice hotel, but not a great one. Plus: Good location near to the Blue Mosque and other tourist attractions. It's on a relatively quiet street, so both streetside and... More

Excellent levels of service from all the staff who were constantly friendly and eager to help with any questions you may have. Their interest in your happiness and enjoyment felt genuine and sincere. The hotel is well-located, approx 5 mins walk from the Hippodrome, and is in the right part of the old city for easy taxi to/from the airport... More

The Rose Garden Suites are part of the Rose Garden Hotel, and are actually a newer building tucked in the back of the main building. We arrived from Rome after a several hour flight delay and had a free transfer from the airport to the hotel. Once we arrived the woman working the front desk checked us in with ease... More

This is a small and cosy hotel ... not "great" or "best ever" as other reviewers said, but nice, specially in relation to its price. We opted for a hotel in the old town , to be within strolling distance from lots of Ottoman sites. On a previous visit to Istanbul, I stayed at the Hilton in the modern part... More

I recently stayed at this most charming hotel and wish I could anticipate another trip to Istanbul to stay there again! The room was lovely and very comfortable. Breakfast was the only meal I had in the restaurant but it was enjoyable and a good reason to go back. Manager Selçuk Topçu was friendly and helpful, really on top of... More

I stayed here in December 2011 and I cannot fault my stay. The room was very large and beautifully decorated, with a luxurious and spotlessly clean bathroom. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is traditional Turkish, with fresh omelettes cooked to order, served in a light and airy conservatory. I'm looking for an excuse to go back to... More

The Rose Garden Hotel and Rose Garden Suites are in two converted townhouses connected by a garden on one block in the historic district of Sultanahmet. The area, around the Mehmet Pasha mosque is almost maze-like and you need to navigate by landmarks. I loved it, but it's definitely a good idea to let the hotel staff arrange for your... More

This hotel offers great character in a historic district. Pleasant rooms, a cozy on-site restaurant and friendly staff made this place a highlight of my trip!

Excellently located right in the heart of Sultanahmet. Wonderfully appointed spacious suites, pleasantly furnished, great turquish traditional bathrooms! Friendly and caring people from breakfast via housekeeping to concierge! Definitely a place to return to and a safe recommendation to anyone who wants to spend time in the old part of the city!
