Armada Hotel Istanbul

 

 

Istanbul, the capital of the civilized world for many centuries ! The end of the Silk Road that started in Xi'an 38,000 km ago ! In Istanbul we have found a city of of colours : blue from the Iznik tiles of the Blue Mosque, pink in the washed shades of the Aya Sofia at night, green the colour of the magical Bosphorus. 

 

ARMADA HOTEL Istanbul
In the Armada Hotel we have not only found a respite from the disgusting December weather, we have also discovered a rare hotel where colours have been so subtly balanced. From the warm salmon colour of the walls to the olive green of furniture every detail in this hotel has been carefully taken care of. 

 

 

Rooms have a view of the Marmara Sea or, as above, of the Blue Mosque

 

Imagine sitting outside at a table overlooking both the Bosphorus and the Aya Sofia Mosque ! The nightmarish December rain did not allow us to experience this ! Instead, we enjoyed a mouth-watering dinner sheltered by the rooftop veranda and comforted by the warmth of a brazier !
