Reviews
Marks for cleanliness. They even allowed me early check in.
Breakfast had limited options but everything was fresh and tasty.Room service menu also had good options and was very affordable. On my last visit to Istanbul I stayed at the Hilton Doubletree However, I would not hesitate to stay at Dosso Dossi again.
Nice place.
Descent price!
The location is unbeatable, just steps away from many of Istanbul’s top attractions. Breakfast was a highlight each morning, with a wide variety of delicious options to choose from. The rooms were spotlessly clean and well maintained, which we really appreciated.
The one thing that stood out was the room size. As others have noted, the rooms are on the smaller side, and with a family of four, it was a bit of a challenge to manage our luggage and unpack. However, the warmth and professionalism of the staff and management more than made up for that.
Thank you, Dosso Dossi, for helping create such wonderful memories for our family. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!
