The front desk staff was very helpful and accommodating. The maid service was excellent. The breakfast was mediocre at best. One day the coffee machine did not work. The other day there was no bread available. Some days the fruit basket was not replenished, fruit was over ripe. The pastries were not good, the same cake slices left on the tray for a week. The food was not kept hot, the warming trays were not working adequately. The breakfast was the most disappointing aspect of the stay.

This experience was a disaster, room was super noise. And when we open the bed it was full of hear we record a video and showed to the receptionist he change us to an other room the cleaning wasn't much better. Then we looked in goggle for the review and we saw a picture taken in the same room with a rat on it. I will never recommend this Hotel and we left early we were very uncomfortable and insecure.

The area The obelisk hotel is located in Sultanahmet, where many of the historical attractions in Istanbul are - because of this, the prices in the area are a little higher. The eateries around Obelisk are the same, but they also have terrace seating with views of the Old City, which in itself is very nice. One thing to note is due to their proximity to tourist areas, some discretion should be exercised when shopping/dining in the area around the hotel. The hotel stay We were upgraded to the unit on the top floor, which has an adjoined terrace on the fourth floor. This gave us a nice view and a very cool space to enjoy dinner and some tea while soaking in the surroundings. The room was clean, spacious and well-maintained. Yunus at the reception wasvery helpful and gave us good food recommendations, and gave us useful suggestions of places to visit. The hotel helped us arrange a transfer to and from the airport for our stay before we arrived, which helped us avoid the hassle of securing transportation at the airport. Breakfast was included during our stay, and traditional Turkish fare was offered for breakfast. This was alright, but we did not check any options outside of the hotel, given what we mentioned about the area being slightly pricier.

Strong little hotel

What a great little hotel. The staff were very polite. The breakfast was decent, although pretty much the same each day but enough varitey to keep you going. The breakfast staff were very tentative and you could order a freshly made omelet. We stayed in a two bedroomed suite. The room sizes are decent with enough room to move about and with good rainfall shower. Location is super. 5 mins to blue mosque maybe less if you are a quick walker. Would happily stay here again. We stayed for 4 nights.

I spent 5 nights at the Obelisk Hotel. I chose it for the convenience of the location. It is very close to the major monuments, cafes, restaurants and tram station. While I was there, the staff were very helpful and friendly. Lokman in particular talked to me every day, answered my questions about transport and sightseeing, made sure I had chilled water for the heat outside, and made me feel very welcome every time I was in the hotel lobby. His helpful advice ensured that I could navigate the city well.

This is an excellent hotel. We ended up staying here 4 nights, not in a row, while in Istanbul. One of the reasons we chose it is because they have family rooms, basically 2 rooms connected by a vestibule. The staff is very accommodating and friendly. And, it is only about a 5 minute walk to the Blue Mosque.
