Great Location: The hotel was perfectly situated near all the major attractions of Istanbul. It felt like being in the heart of the city, just a stone's throw away from the Topkapi Palace, Aya Sofia, and the Sultan Ahmet Camii.
Slight Distance from Tram: Although the hotel was a little far from the tram, the walk to the station was just a minor inconvenience. The rough and stony roads made it slightly challenging with luggage, but it was manageable.

The room was like a cozy cabin in the woods, with wooden furniture and a rustic charm. It made me feel connected to nature, which is exactly what I wanted as a nature lover.
That there was no balcony or outdoor space to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Still, some people might not mind this and enjoy the indoor experience.

I absolutely loved the elegant and charming decor of the hotel. The classic furniture, beautiful artwork, and cozy sitting areas created a warm and inviting atmosphere. The general areas were well-maintained and immaculately clean, making it a pleasure to spend time there. As a senior woman, I also appreciated the easy accessibility of the hotel. There were no steep slopes or difficult stairs to navigate, which made getting around much easier for us.
If I had to ask for one improvement for a better vacation for senior people, it would be to have more assistance from the staff. While the children working there were friendly, I would have appreciated some extra help with carrying luggage or guiding us to nearby attractions.

Located in a charming neighborhood close to the main tourist sites, this hotel provides a great base for discovering the city. The room is comfortable with tea/coffee making facilities, and the bathroom is sparkling clean. The friendly staff is always available to help and offer tips on local attractions. The breakfast is adequate with a variety of options. The hotel is not soundproof, which may cause disturbances for light sleepers. this is a great hidden gem close to key attractions.

Everything! The management was absolutely amazing. Ismail and Tulay Caliskan are the friendliest most helpful hosts you'll ever find anywhere. They took care of everything, including our daily itineraries of our six day trip where they organised our transport, tours, etc. They are the reason our holiday went so smoothly and was such a success. The rooms were very clean and cosy. The neighbourhood its in is very charming, and its located next to everything worth seeing in the city.
Nothing at all

Our stay at this hotel was absolutely mind-blowing! The staff were super kind and helpful, always ready to assist us. The location was jaw-dropping, right in the heart of the city. The room was always clean and cozy, perfect for the cold winter. We loved the hotel's Ottoman-inspired architecture and design. The 24-hour reception service was a great convenience. The owner provided us with lots of information and even arranged a seamless airport shuttle for us. The neighborhood had amazing options for dining and drinks. Just a few minutes walk from top attractions like the Blue Mosque. The wifi worked perfectly all the time. our stay felt like being at a friend's house and it truly made our trip amazing! Can't wait to come back!

The room at Oba Hotel was cozy and inviting, with a lovely view of the city. As a family with children, we really enjoyed how comfortable and home-like it felt.
Personally, I found the Wi-Fi connection a bit slow, but others might not mind.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! Its location in the Sultanahmet area was perfect for me as it was close to all major attractions, including the Blue Mosque and the Grand Bazaar. The hotel facilities were great and everything was kept extremely clean. The staff were also very friendly and accommodating. One of my favorite things was the breakfast - it was delicious! I had a wonderful experience at this hotel.
Nothing, it is perfect.

Charming hotel in an old wood house painted in flashy green. Breakfast is good, our room was clean and well equipped according international standard. this is definively a good place to stay.
in case of noisy neighbors, the walls or roofs between rooms appear to be too thin.

The hotel has all of the attributes of a modern facility tucked in the less tourist more real , old city, section of the city. The area was safe to walk in yet, not overwhelmed with traffic. Restaurants were nearby as was the major city areas and access to the Metro. The staff was very willing and able to help you during your stay. The breakfast was delightful and filling.

I recently stayed at a luxurious 4-star hotel in a predominantly residential and quiet area. This place truly exceeded my expectations in terms of comfort and quality services. The location was perfect, just a few minutes' walk from historical highlights such as the Blue Mosque and the Grand Bazaar. The neighborhood was great, with plenty of good places to eat and have a drink nearby. It was a real treat to explore the local culture and mingle with the friendly locals. The room was spotlessly clean and well-furnished, providing enhanced comfort during my stay. Additionally, the staff here were extremely hospitable and always ready to assist whenever needed. They went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was enjoyable and stress-free. From arranging car hire and airport transfers to providing recommendations for local attractions, their service was top-notch.
In conclusion, I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay in this city. With its prime location, enhanced comfort, and quality services, you won't be disappointed.
