How we score
Each score is worked out by code from the facts this page shows, never from guests’ ratings or a writer’s opinion, and is given as 1 to 5 dots.
Near the sights: how close the nearest listed sight is, and how many are within 1 km. Rooms: the room sizes we show and how many types there are. Facilities: how many kinds the hotel lists (dining, pool or spa, fitness, front desk services, comfort and access). Families: whether children are welcome, and family rooms, a kids’ club or pool, a playground, babysitting. Wellness: spa, hammam, sauna, steam room, pools, gym and massage.
A score is left out when the hotel’s facts are too few to judge it.
Where the Golden Arrow Hotel sits
The Golden Arrow Hotel is an aparthotel at 16 Ördekli Bakkal Sokak in Istanbul, postcode 34130. In a straight line, the Little Hagia Sophia and the Sokollu Mehmed Pasha I Mosque are each about 0.7 km away, the Sultan Ahmed Mosque about 1.1 km, and Hagia Sophia and the Süleymaniye Mosque about 1.4 km. Topkapı Palace is about 2 km and Sirkeci railway station about 1.6 km.
Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW) is about 31.3 km away, in a straight line. The hotel runs an airport shuttle for a fee, which matters for a transfer of that length.
From the 20 m² doubles to the 22 to 23 m² triples
The rooms divide into two pairs. The Standard Double Room and the Deluxe Suite with Sea View are both 20 m² with a queen bed and sleep up to 3; what separates them is the outlook, since the suite looks onto the sea while the Standard Double has a city view. A couple gets the same space and bed either way, so the choice comes down to whether the view matters.
With a twin alongside a larger bed, they suit three people sharing, including a family with one child. Family rooms are among the hotel's offerings, and children are allowed, so the triples and the family rooms together cover a family stay.
| Room type | Size | Beds | Sleeps | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Deluxe Suite with Sea View | 20 m² | 1 queen bed | up to 3 | sea view |
| Triple Room | 23 m² | 1 twin bed, 1 queen bed | – | city view |
| Comfort Triple Room | 22 m² | 1 twin bed, 1 double bed | – | city view |
| Standard Double Room | 20 m² | 1 queen bed | up to 3 | city view |
| Triple Room | 22 m² | 1 twin bed, 1 double bed | – | city view |
Spa, hammam and room service on site
The hotel has a spa and a hammam and room service runs as well. Family rooms round out the offering for those travelling with children.
Two services carry a fee: the airport shuttle and parking. Parking is paid, with accessible parking available for those who need it.
Check-in, check-out and house rules
Check-in runs from 14:00 and check-out until 11:00. Children are allowed. Pets are not. Parking is paid.
Who the Golden Arrow Hotel suits
It suits a traveller who wants an aparthotel within about 1.4 km of Hagia Sophia and the Süleymaniye Mosque, with a spa and hammam to return to, and rooms that can take up to three people.
It does not suit anyone travelling with a pet, since pets are not allowed. A traveller set on a sea view has exactly one room for it, the Deluxe Suite with Sea View; every other room faces the city. And anyone counting on free parking or a free airport transfer should note both are paid here.
