I like the place and would come back again.
It has a friendly staff, a nice view from the window of my room on the Bosfour, and an excellent location to walk along the water.

Our stay at Armada Istanbul Old City Hotel was wonderful. Staff were very friendly and helpful during our stay. Most of the famous spots like Blue Mosque , Hague Sophia are in Walking distance from the Hotel.
The breakfast was nice on the roof top with the sea view on one side and Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia on other side. I would highly recommend this Hotel.

Great staff and comfortable room.
Nice friendly helpful greeting for two travel weary, jet lagged people made for a more comfortable late night check in. Nice room overlooking the water although silly shower design resulted in all towels getting soaked (tired travellers part of problem) lovely rooftop dinner with friendly waiters and same place for continental breakfast again with views and sun.

The location in walking distance to the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia, Topkapi Castle, Cistern Basilica etc was what initially drew our attention to Armada Old City. The bonus is that the hotel is clean and quiet and very comfortable, and the staff were great. Highly recommend this hotel.
