I'm glad that the service of the staff was kind. Also, they considered a pick-up schedule to the airport. It has good access to tourist attractions, and it is also good to go by the sea.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Obahan Hotel. It's a great location on a quiet street just a 2 minute walk away from lots of good restaurants and 5 minutes walk to the Blue Mosque square. They even have off street gated parking if you're silly enough to drive through the narrow streets of old Istanbul like us. The room was sparkling clean and the breakfast spread was quite impressive with lots of variety. The staff spoke great English and were very attentive. Great value stay and definitely recommend for anyone visiting Istanbul.

Great customer service!

The customer service at Obahan was beyond what I have seen from other hotels. My biggest complaint is the noise. The rooms are right in front of the stairwell and elevator. In the morning, you can hear people coming out of there rooms and walking down the stairs. And the same at night. The shower didn't drain well, so there was pooling of water and I saw that there was mold on the bottom of the metal of the shower door. Overall, It was a good stay and very close to all the touristy spots.

I tried to check in... BUT .. they told that there was NO ROOM. (1st lie) but they would put me at their new property.. promised and upgrade.. "sea view" (2nd lie). walked to the other location, maybe 1/4 kilometer, no big deal. offered me to choose between 2 rooms... "sorry but we don't have sea view for you" (3rd lie).. offered garden room... i accepted.. but had to wait for cleaning... came back in 2 hours... "sorry we cannot give you that room... we offered it to another already" .. (4th lie). there is nothing too low or too shameful with these people. anyway it was EXTREMELY LOUD, so... very little sleep. but.. 2 pluses ... they were very friendly when screwing me... and they breakfast was good... but I had to walk back to the other hotel. give this place a miss until they learn to stop playing games... in the end, what I got was nowhere near what I paid for

Great hotel but

Love this hotel and the staff was excellent. My only complaint is that the walls are super thin and you could hear all activity when people start coming in at night. Kept me up until at least 1:30 in the morning. I might have just had bad luck with having loud people and people come in late next to my room
