Had a very nice stay here with husband. Upon arrival was upgraded to a room with a balcony on sixth floor which had views of Hagia Sofia. Location of hotel is excellent- two to three minute walk to Hagia Sofia and Blue Mosque and five to ten minute walk to Grand Bazaar. There is also a tram station at the bottom of the road. Staff are extremely helpful- asked for an extra blanket and an iron, both times item arrived within a few minutes of asking. Good Turkish breakfast with other options too. We would definitely stay here again.

The rooms are elegantly designed, clean, and comfortable. Modern amenities like free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TV, and a well-stocked minibar enhanced my stay. The bed was especially comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep. The staff were exceptional, offering warm and helpful service throughout my stay. The concierge provided excellent recommendations and assisted with transportation. Arden City Hotel is a top choice for visitors to Istanbul. Its prime location, comfortable accommodations, and outstanding service make it an excellent place to stay. Highly recommended!

Fantastic Location! Efficient and wonderful service. We had tbe large family suite, it was spacious, comfortable, beautiful and had plenty of amentities. The balcony with the swing was our favorite spot. The pull out couch was super comfortable, the kids loved it. It was walking distance to wonderful restaurants and all the main attractions. Nothing to complain about. Would absolutely stay here again.

The hotel is in a great place, very close to the Blue Mosque and many shops bars and restaurants. It has a wonderful roof top restaurant with fantastic views across the city - lovely view whilst eating your breakfast. Great food served too. My only criticism is our double room was very very small, there was only one bedside cabinet - no room for two and only one chair at the tiny table.

Great hotel. We stayed in a Deluxe room called Bosphorus--Room 602 on sixth floor. We had a terrace with amazing view looking right at Hagia Sophia, Topkapi to the left, and Blue mosque to the right. Farther left amazing view of the bosphorous. Amazing! Bed was comfy, bathroom very nice and good water pressure with jacuzzi tub. The small elevator only goes to the 6th floor, then 1 flight of stairs to the restaurant/bar. Had outdoor terrace just above our room--really enjoyed drinks on the terrace, and breakfast was very large--very good! We mostly walked from hotel and almost all the good stuff was walking distance within minutes. We did finally walk down to the TI tram at Gulhane--about 7 minute walk, but pretty steep. Went over to Eminonu/walked along Galata bridge and up into spice market--which we liked much better than grand bazaar. Don't miss New Mosque (Yeni Cami) right by this. For going back to hotel on T1 we didn't get off at Gulhane as the walk uphill was steep--kept going around to Sultanahmet station--then walk through the gaps going back towards the hotel--great walk with tons of restaurants along the way--much more interesting and full of sights. This hotel was so well situated for doing everything. The staff were great, constantly offering assistance and guidance. We bought several turkish lamps and other stuff, and got if all within 100 yards of the hotel--and I priced shopped at numerous locations--best deals nearby. Would certainly stay again--thanks. Craig
