Our family (wife and 2 kids - 6 and 12) recently had the good fortune to spend a few days in Istanbul and spend 3 nights at Hotel Historia.

We felt they really cared about us and wanted to make sure we had a good time. Great breakfast, wonderful area to relax in lobby after a long day of being a tourist... More

We recently spent a week in this hotel. Location: Hotel Historia is within the walking distance (3-4 mins) to the Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque and the Sultanahmet square. Room and service: Comfortable clean beds. The mattress is firm and harder for the US Standards which is normal for Asia and Europe. The only reason I gave 4-stars is the Bathroom.... More

Booked Historia based on reviews and it was just as, even better, than described. Great value for money ; clean, cozy place; very friendly, accommodative and helpful staff; excellent location in a quiet Sultanahmet - literally 2-10 minutes' walk from all the sites (Blue Mosque, Aya Sophia, Hippodrome, Topkapi, Grand Bazaar); 2 minutes walk from the Sultanahmet tram station.

We with friends stayed in the hotel History in March to 5 days. They gave us a free Shuttle service. The hotel is situated in a quiet location but very close to the center.
