Armada Istanbul Old City Hotel

Armada Istanbul Old City Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel decor was a little dated, but that was the only complaint. It was on a quiet street, right by all the tourist attractions you'd want without all of the bustle. The staff was incredibly kind. The rooftop bar was really nice. We were unable to make it to the complimentary breakfast."
