Garden Palace Boutique Hotel

It was hard to leave because we felt so at home at Garden Palace Boutique Hotel in Kuşadası. The owners and staff were attentive and genuinely caring, always ready to answer questions or help with requests. The small hotel is charming and remarkably clean, with a warm, homely feel among both guests and owners. We loved the animal-friendly grounds, where turtles roam and a sweet dog keeps watch as the hotel's “bodyguard.” Breakfast was delicious every morning, always with freshly baked cake. We warmly recommend it and hope to return.

The hotel is close to shops and places to eat, and the sea is only a five- or ten-minute walk away. Each morning we had a lovely Turkish-style breakfast outside on our veranda. After days exploring nearby antiquities, it was great that they made sure we had a place to park. The people here made our stay wonderful. We have so many good things to say, and you'd be glad you stayed here.

The owner went out of his way to sort out parking on the narrow streets, reserving a spot and even parking the car himself. That extra help made our stay special. He was one of the kindest hosts we've met, always ready to take care of whatever we needed with a smile. We were there as a couple and felt at home from the moment we arrived. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, with good options for vegetarians. We also loved the rescued dog and the turtles wandering in the garden. The location is right in the centre, a three-minute walk from the main shopping street. A cosy, friendly place in a great spot, we'll definitely return.

Over my 26 years of coming to kudadasi, I've stayed at quite a few places, and this is the BEST hotel I've found so far. It's an old Greek house, restored in a way that keeps its AUTHENTIC style. Small and family-run, it has a warm, homely feel. Mother, our "Anne", and her two sons Recep and Görgün, along with their lovely housekeeper, gave us a warm home for our holiday. We really felt at home and will definitely be back next season. ❤️🐢🐶
