The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, always smiling, genuinely interested into knowing if we were having a good time or if we were missing something. Everyone without exception. The breakfast was delicious and varied. The hotel has an amazing location, less than 5 minutes walk to the Blue Mosque. The Hotel is silent even thought it is located in an area full of restaurants. It has an amazing restaurant right next to it called Dubb Ethnic Restaurant, which I would also like to recommend. The room is small but comfortable and it has everything one needs. In summary, the hotel is very good but the staff takes it to another level. This was my 2nd time in Istanbul and I wouldn't hesitate on staying here if I go back.

To be honest I didn't dislike anything.

1- Friendly and accommodating hoteliers ( Mr. Halit and Mr. Yilmaz) made us feel right at home, English speaking 2- Mr. Halit was especially very helpful in curating our daily city exploration agenda 3- Fantastic room with exceptional biangular balcony view of the Bosphorus and Blue mosque. 4- Great Breakfast 5- Proximity to the Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Tram Station, Gulhane park, Basilica cistern 6- Easy Access to Basic Amenities (Great Restaurants, Cafes, Groceries, Laundry etc.), Definitely coming back !!

-Can't think of any negatives except maybe bed comfort and size can be improved -Nothing else - Nada

I booked this Hotel for my mum and dads' trip to Istanbul for the first time. What can I say they loved Istanbul and the hotel itself. The location, all staff, cleanliness and hygiene of the hotel was superb. The hotel staff were warm welcoming and very friendly. Great variety of breakfast and staff made lovely omelette and eggs to request. The courtyard of the hotel was very pretty. Each staff memeber did everything is their best interest to help with recommendations and even help with shopping for souvenirs and local produce to bring back home. They recommend this hotel to all family and friends and will definitely be back inshallah.

The location is super - just in the old town near the sea (we had a nice sea view and balcony in our room) and a couple of minutes walking distance from the Sultanahmet Park. Restaurants, shops, bazaars, sightseeings just all around and a cute family of cats living by the hotel :) But what was the most fantastic was the staff - always smiling and really helpful, including with the tips of how to get here and there and ready to book trips for us. The only thing that should be accounted for is that traffic in that area is really crowded. We possibly would have missed our plane but that is where the staff again was really helpful - they took us personally to a better place to catch a taxi carrying our bags and keeping in touch with the taxi driver. We are very thankful for this and of all this experience and definitely suggest the hotel to the others!

The location of the hotel is very good, near the Blue Mosque and the tram (5 minutes walking). There are a lot of good restaurants nearby to go at night. It's also very easy to take a taxi as they are always stopped in the road in front of the hotel. The hotel itself is an old building. You should not expect huge and modern rooms. We took a family room (1 couple bed and 2 single beds). The beds are very confortable as well as the room itself. It has a mini fridge, AC, central heating, free wifi, a small LCD and carpets on the floor. Everything was really nice and super clean. The staff of the hotel are super friendly. Mr. Halit and remaining colleagues at the reception, the young gentlements that helped us with the luggage, the ladies that cleaned our room. All of them made our stay a wonderful experience and, for sure, we will come back to the same hotel next time we return to Istanbul. Summarizing: +++ staff +++ cleanness +++ location

The breakfast is suficient and has the minimum required but could have more variety. I think there are some space to improve here, despite we liked.

We spent 6 nights in this very nice Hotel. It is located in a strategic position, very close (5 minutes walk) to Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace and the Blue Mosque. There are also many restaurants in the area, and the T1 tram is very handy to visit the rest of the city, as it will take you to the Galata district, the ferry terminals and close to the Taksim area. The staff was very friendly and helpful, especially mister Ziya, and the breakfast was good. The cleaning lady also did a very good job. We had a small but nice room with a balcony with a beautiful view of the bosforus. If you go to Istanbul in a warm period i recommend the rooms with the seaview as it is really nice to relax on the balcony in the evening, after a day spent visiting the city. The streets around the hotel are also quite at night, so we slept well. All in all we had a very pleasant stay in this hotel.

Nothing in particular. Maybe i will suggest more sweet options in the breakfast.

The staff make this hotel a wonderful place to stay. Unlike other places we have stayed in Turkey they all spoke excellent English and went out of their way to make sure we were happy. We very much enjoyed the breakfast and slept well in the comfy clean beds.

Double rooms too small for us. Would recommend requesting twin bedded room.

The Historia Hotel staff was super kind and understanding. They even surprised us with the best breakfast (for sehur) in the morning. The location of the Hotel is also great - near the beach/coast, as well as the most important Sultanahmet's sightseeings. It is however hard to come with a taxi to it within the rush hours but you can always exit at the beach and take a 5-15min walk to it.

The view from our room was simply amazing! Arriving and being met by all the lights in Istanbul was incredible. The staff at the hotel were so nice and helpful with everything. Breakfast was diverse and there was a lot to choose from. We enjoyed our stay and would absolutely recommend the hotel.

Wifi was a bit slow, it could be sped up. Our toilet broke and kept being broken even after repair. But nothing that made our stay bad. The boat trip we were recommended was too touristed and the food was awful, but has nothing to do with the hotel itself.

The room is clean, very comfortable, and the Staffs was amazing. They all go above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. They were extremely accommodating and allowed us to check in early. The location is recommendable. The breakfast was superb, those on low carbs or on keto like me will love their food selections. Definitely will go back and will send our friends to stay in this hotel .
