In this hotel everything was on top level. Zeynep and Salim and the rest of the staff took care for us for all of our visit in Istanbul. They were so kind and very helpful. They gave their 100% for creating for us incredible memories of our staying in this hotel. Breakfasts were so delicious with amazing view. Room was so comfortable. We received also free Internet. Localisation of this hotel was also perfect (close to Galata Tower, metro station, Galata Port and other must see spots). For sure I have to admit that for all this years it was the best hotel which I booked. I highly recommend this hotel!!! For sure when I will come back to Istanbul one more time I would like to book this hotel once again :))

I liked the décor, the location, metro stop just outside the hotel, the breakfast, the views from the rooftop restaurant, the staff and the service. The views from the room were also amazing and the staff were extremely helpful.

During our stay at DORUK PALAS Hotel, we were impressed by the exceptionally friendly and supportive staffs who made us feel like we were in a luxurious 5-star hotel. They warmly welcomed us with a refreshing glass of lemonade and provided us with all the necessary information. Reaching the hotel was hassle-free, especially if you opt for a taxi from Taksim Square or utilize other transportation methods. While the hotel is not reached by an airport shuttle bus, it remains easily accessible from various points from the Airport shuttle bus stop. It should be noted that if you have heavy luggage, I would advise against using the metro, as the hotel is situated on an uphill/downhill side from the nearest metro station. The room itself was remarkably clean and spacious, providing ample space for our comfort. Additionally, the hotel's proximity to Galata Tower, just a 10-minute walk away, and the Karakoy ferry station, a 25-minute walk, made it a convenient base for exploring the area. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was also kept impeccably clean. We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast served at the hotel, finding it to be of good quality. One of the highlights of our stay was the presence of adorable cats on the hotel premises, which added an extra touch of charm and warmth to the overall ambiance.

Stop looking and just book this hotel! Right smack near the heart of Istanbul with 2 mins walk to the tram/boat. Many restaurants nearby to fulfil your hunger and candy shops to treat yourself or as souveniers! I had a rough road trip and i blindly booked this hotel. Brand new and they have smart Tv! Kids enjoyed the majestic bathtub and we had a good night sleep after that. Everything in the room screams class! Deco was high end and u will immediately feel like home. Bed sheets were so soft and comfortable. And breakfast was fantastic! Evry staff paid attention to your needs. Worth every bit of my money! If i were to travel to Istanbul again,i will book there again!

Galata Tower

Medieval Galata Tower pierces the clouds above Istanbul’s skyline, a soaring sentinel to the north of the Golden Horn. A replacement for a previous tower that was destroyed in the crusades, this one was built by the Genoese in 1348. or hundreds of years, it was the tallest building in Istanbul – and its uppermost balcony still offers unrivalled city views today.

My favorite spot !

My favorite spot ! Always end up in that area at night , because it’s always busy, coffee shops are open after midnight! You can always hang out there ! I also love all the gifts shops in that area , good places to be souvenirs cheaper than the Grand Bazaar. You can also buy a ticket to go up the Galata Tower and see Istanbul on 360 degrees scale. Beautiful!!! But be prepared for the long line at the ticket window!

While the tower is great vantage point, overlooking the entire Golden Horn, the admission tickets are quite expensive and the place is crammed with crowds. If you decide to visit anyway, aim for the 30min before sunset

Another joke which is not even Turkish, as most of the monuments. Anyway. 35 euros just to inside the tower. If you want to use the lift you’ll pay 60 euros to enter. Told you these guys are born thieves! Amazing.

It's good that they have installed a set of lifts to get to the top of the tower. So you are not walking up too many steps. Best to get there early or towards sunset to see spectacular views with the mosques and the sea across Istanbul.

The property was near as location and you can easily go even to galata tower by walking which was 28 min from the hotel but it was worth to have a walk like that passing the bridge and admiring the view. The travel busses and trams or ferries was also near to the hotel. Everything was very clean in the hotel the staff was very kind and helpful and they even had a free parking spot before hotel where they was always happy to help with anything you need.

I loved everything about my stay here. The hotel is really conveniently located, close to the action around Galata Tower, and within easy walking distance of Taksim Square. It's also super close to the Tophane tram stop, from which you can get to Sultanahmet easily to visit Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and the Basilica Cistern. The staff were very pleasant and helpful - shout out to Metin on the front desk. The room was modern, clean, comfortable. The shower was great and the bed & pillows were fantastic.

We stayed 7 nights in this great apartment with amazing Galata Tower views. Comfortable accommodation, in fantastic location - walking distance to multiple restaurants, shops and local attractions. Apartment cosy, easily accessible (1st floor) with comfy bed and great bathroom / living room area. Glad we chose this location. Whilst a little hilly, enjoyed lots of walks across the bridge to Blue Mosque / Hagia Sophia / Sultanahmet district. Highly recommend.

When I am in Istanbul I choose this hotel. Good location near the Galata Tower, Istiklal Caddesi Street / many shops, restaurants. There is a metro nearby and it is also nearby you can catch a tram or ferry within 10 minutes walking distance. I recommend choosing a room with a view of the tower. Breakfast is included in the price or you can pay at the reception. Prices in Turkey vary/ we paid 8 euros per person for breakfast. The staff is helpful. The room cleaning is good. I will be happy to be a guest again interesting interior ;)

We travelled Turkey for 14 days visiting several cities and towns. Even in Antalya we had much worse experience than in this amazing hotel in the middle of the busy street neat Galata Tower. I don't know how they managed but there is no sound in the rooms at all even though the streets are full of loud music. We stayed on the 5th floor. The breakfast is good, there is a choice of local food.

Absolutely yes! Istanbul is open restaurant. In every corner you can find perfect meal. Good to try fish restaurant in Bosphorous, or in Çiçek Pasajı. And also good to try restaurants in Maiden or Galata Tower with perfect city view. What it can be better than that!
