Repetitive structures can give an incorrect pose candidate more inlier support than an accurate one, causing visual localization to select it. History-Guided Pose Reselection (HPR) uses coarse position forecasts from up to five past localization outputs to distinguish well-separated current-query candidates. The best-fitting forecast proposes an alternative; HPR accepts it only if every well-fitting forecast is much closer to it than to the localizer's pose. HPR needs no odometry and returns the selected candidate unchanged, using prediction for selection rather than pose refinement. With one development-set threshold, HPR improves recall within 5 meters and 10 degrees in all 12 main configurations of Hierarchical Localization (HLoc), MASt3R-based pose generation, and JIST-based retrieval, losing successes on fewer than 0.4 percent of queries. On NAVER Gangnam B1, HPR corrects 97 HLoc failures and loses six successes; gains persist within 0.25 meters and 2 degrees on all three HLoc test sets. Median HPR runtime on HLoc candidates is below one millisecond, excluding pose generation. Recovery weakens under less frequent localization.
