It's a good place to stay in Istanbul. The breakfast is excellent, and the traditional food is good. It's a five-minute walk to Topkapi, Hagia Sofia, and the heart of history.

This charming hotel was a perfect place from which to explore Sultanahmet. I loved the older charm and authentic decor. The rooftop has amazing views of both the Bosphorus Strait and the Hagia Sophia.

Very nice hotel, my only suggestion is mix up the breakfast egg options a bit
Craig, 6-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The Armada Istanbul Old City Hotel was an excellent choice for our first visit to Istanbul. It is within walking distance of many of the major sites to see--the Hagia Sofia, the Blue Mosque, the Basilica Cistern, and many hammams. In addition, there are tons of restaurants and cafes nearby. However, this is a very touristy area, with high-pressure hawks inviting you to come into their shop or restaurant, and we found this to be very tiring. It was a good location for our first visit, but if we were coming back, we would choose a hotel in a different area to get a more authentic experience. The hotel itself was wonderful, with a stunning view of the Hagia Sofia from the patio, and excellent service.
Sharon, 6-night trip

8/10 Good

The rooms were simple but the breakfast buffet was great and the staff were very polite and helpful. The view from the roof terrace at night is stunning.
Sarah Lynn, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Shahrukh, 3-night trip

LEYLA ABDULLAH, 5-night trip

8/10 Good

Great hotel. Only suggestion is change breakfast food options each day as it is always the same. Gets boring
Joseph, 6-night trip

8/10 Good

A nice enough hotel near the Bosphorus . The rooms were adequate though the a/c could have been more effective . Its on the bus route into the centre and walkable if you head up hill towards Blue Mosque
Gordon, 4-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Father in law rushed into hospital for a procedure so we couldn’t travel. No refund or credit offer from the hotel. Mean spirited to say the least.
IRVINE DAVID, 6-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Breakfast was great. Had a 23$ charge on my credit card and don’t know why. Requested a sea view and paid extra, got a garden view instead. Great area
CHRISTA, 1-night trip

Property is in great location, breakfast was wonderful. The rooms are very cute and very clean
Carla, 1-night trip

RASAKI, 4-night trip

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.
