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.

Disappointing hotel.
Bad: No Lift or elevator in the Apartments Lift starts from the first floor in the main hotel. which is too small for wheel chair. Hotel is not suitable for Disable persons. Hotel staff is poor in English. Hotel has different buildings. No telephone or proper service in other than main building. No lift in other than main building. Cleaning and room services are poor. You will not get the rooms you actually booked. Standard rooms are too small. If you put your laguage - no space to move around. However hotel apartment rooms are bigger. Good: wifi is good I booked the two bed room apartment for 9 nights and did full payment by credit card before reaching to hotel but our apartment was given to some one else. The hotel manager promised that the next day he will provide the my booking 2 bed room apartment but next day he was showing me other family single room apartments. Then I warned him that if he did not provide me my 2 bed room apartment i will call the police as I had already did full payment for 9 nights. After this threat He made people stayed in my booked 2 bed room apartment to vacate the room and I got my room. First day he provided 2 separte rooms - one of the room AC was not working and he provided us with a fan. I had to open the window to make the room cooler and at night I found a spider on my bed. 2nd day I shifted to my 2 bed room apartment. The cleanliness and room service was poor . Despite notices they cleaned the room on alternate days.

By no means a 4 star hotel, but..
Fantastic service from the staff. Its a bit difficult to understand most of them since they have limited English but you get by. The Hotel is slightly unfinished (rooftop was getting re-tiled and some of the tile in the bathroom was broken. Asides from that its a great hotel to stay at. great location about 10mins away from Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, and other top attractinos in Istanbul. Only 5mins away from the Tram station at the Grand Baazar. Great place!

A decent enough place with pleasant staff.
I really enjoyed the staff at this hotel. They were extremely helpful and kind. It was also cheap for Istanbul which for some reason has hotels on the expensive side. The location is not as close to the tourist district as I had wanted but none the less in the older part of town. This explains why it was cheaper.

Safe, clean and inexpensive
This hotel is small and friendly. The manager is always willing to help and nothing was a problem for him to try and get done or so for you. His son and the other hotel staffs were great to.you usually get daily breakfast, same thing every day. It's bread, jelly, boil egg, tomatoes, black olives and cucumber. Breakfast is served from 0800-1000 am on the 5th floor. Nice view overlooking the sea port.The hotel is located in the back streets about 4 stops before Blue Mosque stop. There's a Burger King restaurant at that stop where you get off...The hotel location is safe as I walked around late at night. There's always tourist walking around looking for deals, so I wolud say it relative it's safe at night...Lots to eat around the hotel from cheap to expensive food... It's about 45mins by subway/tram ride where you will transfer at the Kabaka point. The cost is 3.00 Turkish Lira. You will have to purchase the card at the metro station inside the airport.. It's best to buy a 20.00 TL total. In Istanbul the traffic is ridiculous crazy and busy. In rush hour nothing seams to move so give yourself enough time to go anywhere and especially back to the airport as you can miss your flight due to traffic. Taxis from the IST airports cost approx 55.00 Turkish Lira to the Blue Mosque area and could be more if you are stuck in traffic.. Take the subway and tram if you can help it... Yes I will deffinatly recommend this hotel.

Nice hotel close to the Beyazit tram station
The hotel is situated close to the Beyazit tram station, two stations away from the popular Sultanamet area. The room (single) was in good shape, I think they just redecorated the bathroom and everything seemed to be new. I was a bit unlucky as the toilet was constantly running (the staff tried to repair it but not within the time of my staying). There is TV (not too many channels in English), good storage spaces for a single person, and a fridge (might come in handy on hot nights). Also AC, which worked flawlessly during my staying at the hotel. The staff is very friendly! Not all of them speak English, but nevertheless they are extremely friendly, and most of the times we managed to communicated quite well. For a 2 star hotel and the price I paid for, there's little to complain about.
