We prove that if X is a real Banach space, with dim X\ge 3, which contains subspace of codimension 1 which is 1-complemented in X and whose group of isometries is almost transitive then X is isometric to a Hilbert space. This partially answers the Banach-Mazur rotation problem and generalizes some recent related results.
