The location is the best thing going for this property: centrally located in Sultanhamet, 5 mins to Hagia Sofia and the Blue Mosque, and a great view of the Marmara Sea from the roof.

We stayed at the BW Obelisk hotel from December 26 until December 29. The hotel is a very nice hotel and they do have a very friendly and helpful staff. We arrived in Istanbul at 06.30 am from a 15 hours flight from Jakarta, and we went directly to the hotel, thought just to wait in the lobby until 09.00... More
