Great
GGuest UserThe triple room felt very spacious for just two of us. It was well-equipped with a TV, fridge, and air conditioning. The location was fantastic, with incredibly convenient public transport nearby, and the overall prices were very reasonable. After staying for four nights, we really got to know the area well. The only minor drawback was the 10-15 minute walk from the airport bus stop, which was a bit of a struggle with luggage.

GGuest UserI paid in advance for 2 nights as I had to check in at 8am on the 2nd day. Considering my booking started the night before, I arrived at the hotel after a long flight, expecting to be able to check in immediately. It ticked me off that the hotel has not prepared my room when I arrived. I was informed to wait for an hour for them to clean. They first blamed me for not telling them that I was checking in late even though I've already paid for the night before 2 weeks in advance. They only apologized when my face started to show annoyance. Granted, they offered to transfer me to another hotel which is around 15min away, but I declined as it was older.
While cleanliness passes the basic checks, the walls are very thin and I could hear a couple doing the deed very loudly (I can still remember the woman ******* like nobody's business and it disturbs me). Not suitable for families with children.

MMuhammad Irsyad Bin ZainiThe Garner Hotel Istanbul - Airport Arnavutköy, part of the IHG portfolio, is a relatively new property designed for the modern mid-scale traveler. For the business guest, it excels as a highly convenient and functional stopover, prioritizing connectivity and efficiency over luxury.
Location and Accessibility (4/5)
The most defining feature of this hotel is its proximity to Istanbul Airport (IST), located approximately 14 km away in the lively Arnavutköy district.
Pro: This is an ideal choice for short layovers, late arrivals, or early departures. The hotel offers flexible airport transfers (including private options) and is easily accessible via subway, bus, or taxi.
Con: If your business meetings are located in central Istanbul (e.g., Taksim, Sultanahmet), the one-hour drive can be cumbersome. This is primarily a facility for airport-adjacent operations or transit.
Work and Productivity Amenities (4/5)
The hotel is purpose-built to ensure business travelers can remain productive during their stay.
Wi-Fi & Workspace: Rooms are equipped with free, high-speed Wi-Fi and ergonomic workspaces. The modern design keeps the room clutter-free, providing a comfortable spot for focused work.
In-Room Comfort: Rooms include air conditioning, soundproofing, and coffee/tea makers—essentials for a good night's rest and a quick start to the day.
Dining and Convenience (3/5)
While there are no extensive meeting facilities, the hotel provides practical solutions for food and quick needs:
Breakfast: A fresh breakfast (continental, buffet, or à la carte options, including Halal) is available at the on-site restaurant. This is efficient for a quick meal before an early flight or meeting.
24/7 Access: The Garner Shop in the lobby offers continuous access to snacks and drinks, which is invaluable for travelers arriving or departing at odd hours.
Local Area: Being located in Arnavutköy, there are local cafés, restaurants, and shops nearby for informal dining or quick errands.
Verdict for the Business Traveler
The Garner Hotel Istanbul - Airport Arnavutköy is an excellent, high-value choice for business travelers requiring a clean, comfortable, and productive base near Istanbul Airport. It is less suitable for travelers who need to commute daily to the city center. It delivers on its promise of an easy-going stay with reliable essentials like great Wi-Fi and a focused workspace.
Best for: Transit, layovers, or meetings taking place near the IST airport vicinity.
Look Elsewhere If: You require dedicated, large-scale conference facilities or daily access to the main historical/financial districts of Istanbul.

KKafeiyulvxingThe hotel's location is fantastic, just a 10-minute walk from the main attractions of the old town and the pier. There's also a tram stop just downstairs, so you can take the tram if you prefer. The hotel service is also excellent. Since the tram tracks are right outside the door and you can't drive, the hotel staff will help with luggage transfers. Airport transfers can be booked at a reasonable price. However, due to the proximity to the tram tracks, rooms facing the street can be a bit noisy.

NNztommyI met the kindest and nicest host while staying in Istanbul.
They even upgraded my room and made my check-in time 2 hours earlier, and they welcomed me warmly.
This was the first time I felt kindness among the Turkish people I met for 4 days.
The room was also nice. The water pressure was strong! The room was really spacious.
