IF you plan to spend most of your time out in Istanbul life Dorne is a good choice. You do not lose time jumping into the vibrant environment of Istiklal Street, which connects you to the rest of the city easily.
The place offers a quiet place to sleep and basic amenities, including a shower, fridge, and a small living room to relax. For us, it was good enough since we were not planning to use the amenities.
I was familiar with the alley Dorne is in. It is in the old neighbourhood, but peaceful and far enough (3 minutes' walk) from the main street. You do not need to worry about security.

The day we checked out there were protest, polices blocked mostly all alleys in Istiklal street, but we didnt have issued out to the airport and got transportation, Mr Reza and the hotel's manager arranged everyting including spoke to the police supervisor in charge, they are very care about their guest.

What truly made our stay special was the manager, Reza. He was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and polite. We were very satisfied with everything and will definitely return.

The reservation desk was very prompt in addressing all concerns. The units are very intimate, but they have more than everything that you might need for your stay including hotplates, utensils, etc. Of course it is an easy five minute walk to the famous pedestrian Istiklal Street. Furthermore, it is a pleasant walk downhill to the Topane T1 tram station. However, on the way back, its best to take the tunnel from Karakoy to Galata, and walk down Istiklal Street. The receptionist has very limited knowledge of english, and while the owner is very flexible if you reach out to him, the receptionist is a bit strict with everything. So if you have any special requests, best to touch base with the owner directly. The place is neat and tidy, and it was a pleasure to stay there.

There were two severe problems:
1. On our last day, an intense sewer smell engulfed the entire apartment. It made sleeping, eating and bathing nearly impossible, and felt absolutely unsanitary. We weren’t notified about this problem or the attempts to fix it, we only found out fixes were being attempted when we asked the attendant. It was still smelling disgusting by the time we left.
2. The bathroom door knob was broken, and “fixed” with an elastic band. A previous reviewer mentioned getting stuck in the bathroom, but no serious repair was made. This can’t be fire-safe!

Otherwise, the apartment was dingy but usable. The wifi, A/C, laundry service and elevator were all satisfactory. There were some stains and damage, and little shelf space. But the attendants made water bottles available for free!

The area is cute if touristy. Many good restaurant options around. It's a little loud at night, but that's to be expected in this area.

We looked up this hotel and the pictures painted a different scene. This was supposed to be a relaxing family vacation instead ended up being an uncomfortable 10 days. The 2 rooms we booked were both very disappointing in size and cleanliness. By the second night me and my 9 other family members got sick from all the dust and mold in the rooms. We spent half our vacation in bed rest due to the uncleanliness. We ended up purchasing our own cleaning supplies and cleaned both rooms. Even after taking the time to clean there was still a sewage smell that would overwhelm the rooms. The windows and doors would have to stay open in order to be able to eat, sleep or relax. My father ended up stuck in the restroom for 2 hours because the door handle came apart. There was no water the 1st night and we lost power the last night. The safe box would not open so we were forced to walk around with our money and passports the 1st two days. When you are traveling with 10 people a safe box in the rooms is very important. The host was able to get us a replacement but we had to install and mount it ourselves. The fridge and burners are outdated. We ended up having a fridge water leak on the 3rd floor and my sister’s luggage and clothes were damaged. The burner stopped functioning and had to be replaced. My over all review is very dissatisfied, the amount of money spent was not worth the stay. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The only good thing about this hotel is the location.

We enjoyed our stay here. It was down a small alley, but the Main Street just outside the alley has lots of shops and restaurants. It was very walkable to the tram stop and only a block away from Istiklal street with many, many restaurant and shopping options, including many big Western names. The room was clean and spacious enough. The furnishings were beautiful. Great deal for the price.

It wasn't a great stay. The good is the walkable area. The bad is the apartment itself - it's too small for two people, the furniture is old and broken, the bathroom smells foul, the wifi disappears every few minutes (can't really have a work zoom call or watch TV), the A/C is too weak during hot weather, no real cooking stove or laundry in the apartment unlike advertised, and finally the loud church bell by the window wakes you up at 8am. We moved out early (no refund was provided), and moved to a much better apartment nearby.

It is also walking distance to the metro station, and to Istiklal street, with access to numerous shops, restaurants, pharmacies, and grocery stores. Despite being so central and close to everything, we did not struggle with loud noise at night or any other issues during our stay.

The property is as you see in the pictures. It was well thought out and has everything you need. The communication from the host is slow and often no one it as reception. The room smelled of smoke as people smoke in front and our room was at the bottom. The location is ideal as you are walking distance from everything but parking is a nightmare. You need to pay and some charge exorbitant fees for you to park.

During my recent visit to Istanbul, I had the pleasure of staying at the Dorne Suites in Taksim. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the warm and welcoming atmosphere that permeated the entire hotel. The staff, without a doubt, played a significant role in making my stay an unforgettable experience.

The staff at Dorne Suites are some of the friendliest and most attentive individuals I have ever encountered in my travels. From the front desk personnel to the housekeeping staff, everyone went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of my stay was exceptional. They were always ready with a smile, eager to assist with any queries or requests, and provided valuable recommendations on local attractions and dining options. The level of service truly surpassed my expectations.

One of the standout features of Dorne Suites was the comfort of their beds. After a long day of exploring the vibrant streets of Istanbul, I looked forward to sinking into the plush mattress and luxurious bedding. The rooms were tastefully designed and exuded a sense of modern elegance. The attention to detail in providing a comfortable sleeping environment was evident, and I woke up each morning feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

Another advantage of staying at Dorne Suites is its close proximity to the bustling shopping hub of Istiklal Avenue. Just a stone's throw away from the hotel, this vibrant street offers an array of shops, boutiques, cafes, and entertainment options. It was incredibly

Had a very enjoyable stay in this studio-sized room. Very positive, friendly and helpful reception throughout! The bed was comfortable, and the presence of a sofa added a bit of extra space to unwind, which in rooms of this size is not a given. There is some wear here and there; it shows, but never to the point where it becomes distracting or undermines the overall comfort. The location is clear strength: close to Taksim Square and Istiklal Street, yet just far enough removed to avoid being constantly pulled into the noise and foot traffic. For the price, this strikes a very solid balance — entirely fit for purpose as a comfortable and roomy base to explore the area!
