Excellent hotel, clean, great breakfast and view of both the mosques and bosphorus
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

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.

Extremely nice hotel located in the heart of old city with key old city spots within walking distance. Hotel ambiance was exquisite and the staff extremely kind and helpful.
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
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

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.
Armada Hotel is in an amazing accessible location walkable distance to great restaurants, historic sites and shops. Healthy and delicious breakfast with grey views of the Blue Mosque and Aya Sofia. Super friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend Armada Hotel and would stay again.
The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is great. Rooms were very clean. The surrounding area of the hotel is full of shopping, dining and sightseeing options.
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.
