The Historia Hotel is literally right in the heart of the Sultanahmet, standing under the Blue Mosque and St. Sophia. The Grand Bazaar, the Underground Cistern and Topkapi Palace are readily accessible by foot, comprising a journey measured in meters rather than kilometers. There is a train station 1 kilometer away and the Ataturk International Airport is located some 18 kilometers from the Historia Hotel.
The Historia Hotel features 27 total guestrooms. They are themed in line with the Ottoman roots of the establishment and designed to offer a homey, cozy feel. Satellite television, Internet access and private baths are all offered to guests. There is also a restaurant within the hotel and a lounge that serves cocktails. The majority of the rooms feature views of the historic sites.
The Historia Hotel is one of the available sources of accommodation in Istanbul that fall under the category of "boutique" hotels. This particular example is a converted Ottoman-style mansion which was renovated and made into a hotel of approximately 30 rooms and which is located near the historical district of the city.
