Dora Pera Hotel

I stayed in the 3 twin bed room with a sea view with my mom and sister. The beds were comfortable and the room and bathroom was very clean. All of the hotel was very clean and well maintained. The staff was always very warm and helpful to guests. The cleaning lady Azad was very sweet. The room service was great. The breakfast was a great spread. The view from our window was beautiful in the night. In our room the space is just enough. We had 5 suitcases which made it a little tight but they have a cupboard so we used that to keep all our stuff. They also have a safe locker. There is a spa which offers hamam too but I didn’t have time to try it. The location of this hotel is just amazing. It’s situated right next to the bus stop and a few meters away from the metro m2 line. The galata tower is only a short walk away. And it’s only a short walk from the nostalgic tram that goes through istiklal street as well. They also gave us an extended checkout time. Overall I had a great experience here and would love to come back.

4 Sterne Hotel aber in der Wahrheit 3 Sterne Hotel. Die Lage ist super aber sehr Laut.

Hotel doesn't have an autopark, but there is one very close to the hotel. sure you have to pay for it. The staff is very polite and nice.

Otelin konumu güzel, otopark yok ama yakında 2-3 tane özel otopark var. Oda temizdi, haliç manzarası vardı, ödediğimiz ücretin hakkını verdi. Rezervasyon değişikliği konusunda yardımcı olan Cemre Hanım’a tekrar çok teşekkür ederiz.

Otelin konumu iyi ama çok eksiği var taksim gibi biyerde böyle otel olmamalı kahvaltıda sıcak servisler hep soğuktu ve cok sertti sigara içme alanında oturacak sandalye yok ayakta sigara içiliyor resepsiyondaki çalışan kişilerle oda temizliği yapan kişiler arasında iletişim bozukluğu var bar var diye yazılmış fakat herhangi bir ne bar ne cafesi var otelden memnun kalmadık

Sehr bequeme Betten, Regendusche im Bad, sehr sauber, Zimmer wurden täglich gereinigt, Wasserkocher, Wasser, Tee und Kaffee im Zimmer, freundliches Personal, sehr leckeres Frühstück, Top Lage 3 Min von der Istiklal Caddesi entfernt, insgesamt haben wir uns dort sehr wohl gefühlt :) - Spa-Bereich: Inkompetentes Personal, ich habe Hamam und Massage für zusammen 100€ gebucht, kein Hamamvergnügen, wie ich es sonst kannte, die Dame kannte sich überhaupt nicht aus und wollte mich erst massieren, bevor es in den Hamam geht, was mich sehr irritierte; Die Massage war ein „Eincremen“ mit Voltarencreme, die meine Haut auskühlte, kein Wellnessfeeling, sehr unangenehmer stechender und beißender Schimmelgeruch in den Massageräumen, das hätte ich mir sparen können..rausgeschmissenes Geld

good location which is very close to the Metro station and Galata Tower. The only downside was that there were very limited tables for breakfast so you had to wait for other people to finish their meals or sit next to other families. It's a very clean and quiet 3-star hotel.

No room, to sit and work, to read and drink. the breakfast area was terribly tight and crammed and the breakfast not very good.

فندق جميل لطيف مجدد... عيبة لاتوجد خدمه للغرف ...

This wasn’t a 4 star hotel. Amenities are limited! Very small breakfast area and always condensed. Very limited breakfast options. It is off the main street and very noisy. Triple room is not good because the third bed is a futon bed not real mattress. The only good thing about it is that the staff are friendly and helpful.

The room had a very nice view and was cleaned thoroughly. There was no problem with the heating system and the taps shower were working. The breakfast was also good and what is more striking is that the staff was so friendly, especially the guy at the buffet. The reception was also so quick and helpful. Thank you so much!

Çalışanlar sıcakkanlı, güler yüzlüydü ve kaldığımız oda tertemizdi. Kahvaltıda ürün çeşidi oldukça yeterliydi. Jestiniz için teşekkür ediyoruz, İstanbul ziyaretimizde kesinlikle tekrar kalacağımız bir otel.

Vielen Dank an die Mitarbeiter des Hotels Dora Pera Sie waren sehr freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit super Lage alles sehr gut zu Fuß erreichbar. Hotel Zimmer wird jeden Tag gereinigt.

Çok güzel 2 gün geçirdik otelin konum çok iyiydi, kahvaltısı çok çeşitli ve lezzetliydi, çevredeki otel fiyatları arasında uygundu. Manzarasıda güzeldi tek sıkıntı yatak ve çarşaflarının çok temiz olmayışıydı kötü koku ve saçlar vardı. Banyodaki havlularında temiz olduğunu söyleyemem ilk gün kullandığımız havluyu ertesi gün temizlikte değiştirmeyip katlayıp yerine koymuşlardı bu konuda bir rahatsızlık yaşadık onun dışında her şey süperdi.

Freundliches Personal, Sauberes Zimmer, tägliche Reinigung, schnelles Internet, reichhaltiges Frühstück, zentrale Lage

Very average hotel. It doesn’t worth the price. I reserved this hotel for my elderly parents and paid for a sea view room. They gave us an average room on the fifth floor with no specific view. After two days I talked to the manager and insisted on room upgrade. It took me one hour to convince him to upgrade our room to a deluxe room. Deluxe room was better. More spacious with a terrace and view. This is the only reason I’m giving them 2 stars. 1- Rooms are very basic. No tissue box, no iron, no extra toilet rolls, safety box not bolted to the drawer (safety issue), basic design. Cards to open room’s door deactivated every other day. 2- Wifi was not working most of the time. 3- breakfast quality is ok but breakfast area is small and congested. 4- Cleaning ladies were really nice, but once I asked reception how to get to princess island, they gave us a wrong address. It took us one hour to get to the address they gave us and when we got there they told us this is not the right location. We had to come all the way back! You want to trust your hotel reception to get info from! How on earth they don’t know how to get to the one of the biggest tourist attractions in Istanbul?! 5- After moving to deluxe room they gave me a sofa bed which was extremely uncomfortable. 6- I smelled sewage some days in hallways.

Im Badezimmer war ein unangenehmer Geruch was von der Lüftungsklappe kam Das Reinigungs Personal war sehr freundlich und aufmerksam, gründlich auch ein großes Lob an das Personal im Frühstücks Raum sehr freundlich und aufmerksam.

This place is not worth the price: 1- They assigned my room to someone else and attempted to make me stay in a lower-level room, claiming I didn't check in at the correct time. However, I had informed them about my late arrival several days prior. 2- I found hair on the bed after checking in. 3- I requested additional towels, but despite promising to bring them twice, they never did. I find this disrespectful. 4- There's construction in the adjacent building which creates significant noise starting at 8am. 5- The air conditioning doesn't work in cool mode.

Tuvaletten korkunç bir koku geliyordu 2 gece konakladık gece kapıyı kapatıp uyumaya çalıştık. Restoranda hanım personel çok kabaydı kahvaltı çok vasattı. Gece müşterilerin gürültüsü yüzünden bölük pörçük uyuduk. Konumu manzarası harika ama iç işleyişi vasat bir otel maalesef. Bir daha kalmayız

Het was een vreselijk hotel, het lijkt allemaal mooi maar het is zo goedkoop gemaakt. De muren zijn ongelooflijk dun en er is een normale houten deur die het geluid ook niet buiten houdt. Je wordt constant wakker door geluiden van buiten of van andere hotel gasten. Er hangt door het hele hotel een riolering lucht, het was zo erg dat we er in de nacht van wakker werden en nieuwe kamer hadden aangevraagd, die kregen we pas de volgende middag. In de andere kamer was de riolering lucht gelukkig minder. De service is vreselijk en bijna niemand spreekt Engels. Ze hadden ook zomaar onze spullen allemaal uit de kamer gehaald en naar beneden gebracht omdat ze onze uitcheckdatum verkeerd hadden. De ontbijt zaal is zo klein dat sommige mensen in de lobby moesten eten en andere gewoon moesten wachten. Het was een mager ontbijt met weinig keuzes. Ik zou dit hotel zeker niet aanraden, ik snap ook niet dat dit een 4 sterren hotel is.

Amazing view from my bedroom, very comfortable and Spacy room. Breakfast is rich and fresh but must be taken before 8.30. Otherwise very few choices are left. Central location, very close to touristic centres. Welcoming and helpful staff. Strongly recommended.

Good and nice hotel, but it will definitely need a couple of changes. What can be improved: • Many of the staff were smoking near the entrance, which caused a strong cigarette smell. • The rooms are soundproof, but not the doors. Every time someone used the elevator or talked outside, we could hear it, which was a little annoying. • The bathroom fan was making a lot of noise, so I would recommend changing it.

Oda çok temizdi ama biraz karanlıktı, harika bir wifi, harika bir konum, ortalama bir kahvaltı

Good wifi

Rezalet ses yalıtımı yok yatak sert çadırda uyu daha iyi özellikle rica ettim ses olmaaın diye

Zalety: 1. Dobra lokalizacja, świetnie skomunikowany z transportem publicznym, 2. Pokój byl czysty, sprzątany codziennie, codzienna wymiana ręczników, zawsze nowa woda w pokoju, 3. Hotel jest dosyć nowy i jest w dobrym stanie, 4. Przyjemny i pomocny personel, 5. Śniadania też ok, niczego nie brakowalo, donoszono to, co się skończyło. Wady: 1. Brak dźwiękoszczelności - słychać dosłownie wszystko, co dzieje sie za drzwiami pokoju, 2. Hotel jest przy ruchliwej ulicy - słychać hałas również przy zamkniętych oknach (pokój z widokiem ma morze), 3. Okropnie niewygodne łóżko. Materac był bardzo twardy, dodatkowo czułem sprężyny, 4. Coś nie tak było z wodą - ciśnienie bywało niskie, dodatkowo woda rzadko była gorąca, a momentami niemal chlodna.

Konum olarak çok iyi yerde. Standar oda da kaldık . Yataklar çok sertti daha yumuşak olabilir belim ağrıdı diyebilirim . Ayrıca duşta su daha tazikli olabilir. Genel olarak standarttı.

Clean but near street and noisy. Reception is not good

We have booked a 2 night stay for my 73 year old father, who was checking in at 10 pm. upon check in they told us , first , that the AC is not working in our room and we have to look for a new hotel room. We said we would still take it ,but they lied that there is one available and finally acknowledged they overbooked and we must look for the hotel ourselves , at 10 pm!!!l The receptionists are not helpful, don’t care about anything but smoking and chatting, they first promised to pay for hotel next door but upon checking in there they said that the price is too high for them. Very very disappointing experience which this hotel !

Very pleasant stay at Dora Pera. Walking distance to Istiklal avenue, metro near by, small food shop near by and plenty of restaurants/ bars within walking distance. Beautiful view of the Golden horn from our room. All staff very friendly and helpful at all times. Great selection of food at breakfast. Always fresh and clean. Room was perfect and clean with everything you could ask for. Free water and coffee/ teas every day. Definitely recommend and would return to this hotel.

The room had a very nice view and was cleaned thoroughly. There was no problem with the heating system and the taps shower were working. The breakfast was also good and what is more striking is that the staff was so friendly, especially the guy at the buffet. The reception was also so quick and helpful. Thank you so much!

Excellent hotel close to the Istiklal Cd and within walking distance to Taksim square, Galata tower, and Galata bridge. Really great spot with lots of food options as well. One of the staff, Burak, was very helpful especially to store some food in their fridges during our stay. Would definitely stay there again.

Vielen Dank an die Mitarbeiter des Hotels Dora Pera Sie waren sehr freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit super Lage alles sehr gut zu Fuß erreichbar. Hotel Zimmer wird jeden Tag gereinigt.

When we arrived at the hotel, they told me that the triple delux room i had booked for my wife and was not available. They told me that they would upgrade and provide 2 single rooms and split me and my wife, we had no choice but take this option and so my wife and i stayed in separate rooms for 6 nights. I have been traveling for the last 45 years and this is the first time a hotel told me that the room i booked and paid in advance was not available

I was expecting just a functional business stay at Dora Pera, but the hotel exceeded my expectations. Front desk staff were friendly and helpful and the room was clean. There were some late party-ers in the room next door, but the noise is what you would expect in this part of Istanbul. Overall, highly recommend!

El hotel muy bien localizado muy cerca de Galata Tower son 5-6 minutos caminando. Ademas, saliendo del hotel, a 15 metros está la estación Sishane 2 del bus, enfrente esta Sishane1; ademas a menos de 200 metros la estacion Sishane de la linea M2 (Metro). La atencion en el hotel excelente; el desayuno incluido bastante bueno, tipo europeo y la atencion en front desk de lujo, en particular muchas gracias a YAREN que nos dio muchas guias sobre como movernos en Bus, Metro y Train.

4 Sterne Hotel aber in der Wahrheit 3 Sterne Hotel. Die Lage ist super aber sehr Laut.

Otelde 1 gece esimle konakladik. Konum olarak mukemmel bir yer. Galata kulesine 5 dk yurume, taksim e 6-7 dk yurume mesafesinde. Kahvaltisi gayet yeterli ve tatmin edici. Odalar cok temizdi. Tesekkurler

Staff was very helpful. The free breakfast had many options and was fresh. The room was comfortable. Close to Istiklal Cad.

This is my second time at Dora Pera, its my favorite hotel, very clean, big rooms and comfortable. Very near to the metro station only 5 mins walking, bus station is just in front of the hotel 1 min walking, very near to istiklal street and galata tower, i would recommend for everyone, breakfast very good quality and big variety. I really enjoyed my stay and would recommend it for solo and families travelers.

Konum olarak istiklal caddesinde yakın ama zorlu bir yürüyüş oluyor çok hayır ve merdiven çıkmak zorundasın metroya yakın oteli çalışanları ve otel gayet iyi kahvaltılar süper tavsiye ederim

Not very close to Istiklal street. Pretty far from Taksim square.

Firstly hotel location is perfect, it s very close to public transports( metro, funicular, taxi, bus). Also it s just for a minute Istiklal Street by walk. Hotel staff were so kind and helpful people, they responded all my request nicely on time. There is a breakfast and fairly enough for starting the day. Rooms were big enough for me and toilets were clean and in good condition.

One of the best hotels in Istanbul Near galata tower Cross Street bus station 10 minutes away from eminonu bazar 7 minutes away from istiklal street

There are multiple construction sites around the hotel. You’ll hear loud noises in the morning. Not because of the traffic but because of the construction sites. On upper levels you’ll hear loud music from the roof top bar until midnight. Room was clean and tidy. Staff was alright. Didn’t liked the breakfast options. Eat outside!

Amazing view from my bedroom, very comfortable and Spacy room. Breakfast is rich and fresh but must be taken before 8.30. Otherwise very few choices are left. Central location, very close to touristic centres. Welcoming and helpful staff. Strongly recommended.

Calisanlar çok yardımsever. Oda temiz. Kahvaltı daha kaliteli olabilirdi, yeterli fakat cazip değil.

Çalışanlar sıcakkanlı, güler yüzlüydü ve kaldığımız oda tertemizdi. Kahvaltıda ürün çeşidi oldukça yeterliydi. Jestiniz için teşekkür ediyoruz, İstanbul ziyaretimizde kesinlikle tekrar kalacağımız bir otel.

Kahvaltı taze ve yeterli çeşitli . Klima aktif çalışmaktadır.

Praktisch, central überall zu Fuß erreichbar. Frühstück war nicht gut und appetitlich.

Die Lage ist sehr gut. Die Metro-Station ist in wenigen Gehminuten erreichbar. Das Fenster im Zimmer war leider undicht, daher hörte man in der Nacht die Autos und den Lärm draussen. Daher konnte ich nicht gut einschlafen. Frühstück hatte begrenzte Auswahl und viele Sachen schmeckten nicht so. Alles in allem war OK aber würde nicht noch einmal das Hotel buchen.

This wasn’t a 4 star hotel. Amenities are limited! Very small breakfast area and always condensed. Very limited breakfast options. It is off the main street and very noisy. Triple room is not good because the third bed is a futon bed not real mattress. The only good thing about it is that the staff are friendly and helpful.
