als wir antraten hieß es, dass alle Zimmer belegt sind obwohl wir Wochen davor gebucht haben. Schließlich wurden wir zur einer Bruchbude außerhalb des Hotels gebracht, wo niemand war außer wir. Das Zimmer wurde nie gereinigt, hatten teilweise keine Elektrizität und frische Handtücher, Toilettenpapier wurden ebenso nicht vorbei gebracht. Zu Beginn hieß es, dass wir nur eine Nacht in der Wohnung übernachten müssen aber dem war leider nicht so. Das Frühstück war ungenügend und das Personal unfreundlich. Nie wieder! Das Hotel ist überhaupt nicht empfehlenswert.

Böyle rezillik görülmemiştir.

Otel bizi evlilik cüzdanı sormadan kabul etti. Sabahın köründe kapıları çalıp telefonla arayıp kaba bir şekilde rahatsız edip otelden çıkardı. Bu kadar saygısız ve kaba bir işletme görmedim. İstanbulda yurt içinde yurt dışında bir sürü seyahatim var. Bir çok otelde kaldım bu kadar kötüsünü görmemiştim. Özellikle sahibi kimse adını bilmiyorum oda bize oldukça saygısız davrandı. Kısacası kendileri kabul edip, saygısızca bizi çıkardılar. Otel pis, odalar pis ve gürültülü asla tavsiye etmem.

Turkish warmth 100% in the heart of Istanbul

It had been a while since I had traveled on my own and from the moment I stepped into the Historial Hotel (now called Ottoman Hotel), I felt right at home. It is located in very convenient and central street in Sultanahmet (the historical heart of Istanbul) and it has a nice mix of locals and tourists alike. The rooms are quaint and if you grab a double room, you get a little balcony where you can witness all the wonderful street activity or have the sun splash & warm your face in the morning. The roof is equipped with an amazing terrace where you can see this magnificent city in full and hear the beautiful Azan call to prayer throughout the day, it's a very spiritual experience. Besides the great logistics of the hotel, the staff is what gives this place authenticity and heart. They are warm, welcoming, and generous. They offer their hearts and open your mind to all the possibilities of this beautiful Middle Eastern / European culture and really share the best of what they have to offer. I felt like I was at home with Sevim, Engin, Saadiq, and Ibrahim - we sat together, we laughed together, we learned from one another, and they reminded me of all the beauty that there is in the Middle East and its people - a region with troubles, but with people who have deep hearts and wise words. Stay here and you'll have found a home and a family in Istanbul, I know I did :-). I left Istanbul full of life and love, thank you.

The hotel staff was friendly and helpful, but the hotel was in bad conditions: the lift wasn’t working (my suitcase weighted close to 30 kg) and every morning we had to climb up 5 flights of narrow stairs (mostly in the dark) to reach the breakfast room. The boiler in our flat was leaking and there was a puddle in one of the rooms.

Great hotel at shockingly cheap price

I enjoyed my staf at Historial. For a 2-star hotel the hotel was a real value for money. Free wifi was excellent, TV, shower, great breakfast and excellent location -just 5 minutes to Grand Bazaar. The staf was excellent and very friendly.

Vanhaa kaupunkia

Pieni hotelli vanhassa kaupungin osassa. Ympärillä vain paikallisia, turisteja ei juuri näkynyt. Hyvät liikenneyhteydet. Sininen moskeija, basaari yms. kävelymatkan päässä.
