All the supreme sights within walking distance. Quiet and clean rooms, nice breakfast, wonderful roof terrace and breakfast/restaurant with a wiev over the sea. The staff was friendly and welcoming.

Nice, older hotel with adequate rooms, facilities for some days stay in Istanbul. The breakfast -often praised here- is very nice and a variety of food makes a good start for the day. Services of front desk personnel depends on who you'll get. The guest rel. officer miss Ipek Sensilay is really of great help for everything (except for the... More

The Armada Hotel has quite comfortable, if not small, rooms. The real treat is the roof restaurant where you can have breakfast or dinner and gaze upon the water of the Bosphorus or the Blue Mosque, just blocks away.

The Armada is a terrific boutique type of hotel nestled in a somewhat secondary area of Istanbul. But the location is fabulous- within walking distance of the Blue Mosque, the Hagia Sophia, some great Turkish Baths, and a few bazaars, including the Grand Bazaar. The views from the Terrace Restaurant are amazing - The Marmara Sea on one side, the... More

well located in Sultanahmet area is for sure a good place where to stay for your holidays in Istanbul. Staff has been very kind and helpful in all our requests (we were three couples of freinds). Breakfast had a wide choice of food and it is nicely located in the terrace from where you have a real nice view. It... More

We stayed at this hotel as part of a tour of Turkey and then on our own for a few extra days. It is a wonderful place and a great location (although it is uphill to all the tourist sights...not a problem for us as we like to walk). The room we had was a bit crowded, but still very... More

Looking for an hotel we found Armada, but we had no idea what we were going to see when getting there. What a great surprise! This little hotel, hidding in a little street near the see is elegant, very well... More

We stayed in one of the studios rented out through the Armada Hotel. The studio was delightful, in a quiet residential street and the staff at the hotel, which was a short walk around the corner, were always extremely helpful and pleasant. Although it is a large hotel they offer a very personal service and make you feel very welcome.... More

Very pleasant stay. The place is very lively with parties and live singer in the ground floor. The rooms are a bit small, but clean. The breakfast was the highlight of our stay with the freshest fruits, veggies and tahina. I highly recommend this hotel
