"Everything was really good, especially the spa, but except for the breakfast buffet the restaurant had mediocre food and even worse service. I therefore would highly recommend staying at the Garden Hotel and Spa, but eating your lunch/dinner elsewhere. There are no restaurants within walking distance, but may really good ones 15-25 minutes away by taxi."

"Cool-looking exterior. Convenient for walking to many of the major tourist sights of the city. I did a long morning sightseeing walk in an attempt to avoid the heat of the day and returned just as breakfast was closing. They still let me eat and while doing so all the staff gathered to celebrate one of the hotel worker's birthdays with flowers, clapping, and pictures. Seeing that confirmed the very nice vibe I got from everyone there. What a lovely place! Wifi worked fine and shower pressure was good. AC in room worked great. Highly recommended!"
