Tomtom Suites

Unexpectedly good, one of the most comfortable hotels I stayed in during my time in Turkey. I regret only booking one night. The hotel's decor is beautiful, and you can tell it's meticulously maintained. Every day from 4-6 PM, there's an afternoon tea with snacks you can join. Breakfast is served at the Michelin-starred restaurant Nicole on the rooftop (hotel guests get a 10% discount on dinner at Nicole). The entrance is at the bottom of a very steep hill, so if you have large luggage, you can inform the hotel in advance, and they will come down to help you with it. The Tomtom area is also great for exploring, very pleasant nearby. Since we were on the third floor and the restaurant was on the fourth, we could hear chairs being dragged around 10 PM, probably during cleanup. That's the only minor issue I found.

The restaurant view is absolutely stunning, with breakfast overlooking the Bosphorus. The hotel's overall style is simple, modern European, yet cozy, making for a very comfortable stay. Being next to an embassy means the street is closed off for about 100 meters, making nights incredibly quiet, unlike other noisy neighborhoods. I really wanted to stay here again when I returned to Istanbul, but it was fully booked, which was a shame.

The hotel is incomparable, with delicious breakfasts and a beautiful view. The room is spacious with high ceilings and a jacuzzi. They also offer afternoon tea. I will definitely come back here again!

I was generally satisfied with the room, and I'd recommend it! First off, it's spacious and very clean. Being a historic building, the soundproofing isn't great, but it's very well-maintained. Secondly, the hotel staff provided good service overall. You can ask the hotel to book the Michelin restaurant on the top floor for you, which is also where breakfast is served – their pastries are excellent. The hotel's location is very quiet, quite close to Istiklal Avenue, and convenient for getting around. The Tomtom area is also worth exploring for some designer shops. It was my first time in Istanbul, and I have wonderful memories!

The room space is good, and the view is also nice. However, I think there were bugs, as both of us got bitten. Also, they were very stingy. I left a tip for the room and a note in English asking for more water, but they only provided two extra 300ml bottles, which was nowhere near enough to drink.

The hotel is located in the new district, opposite the Italian Embassy. There's a short uphill walk to get there, but it's very convenient for walking to Istiklal Avenue. We walked all the way along Istiklal Avenue to the main square, and it was also easy to walk to the seaside.

Rooms on higher floors offer direct views of the strait, though the restaurant provides an even better vantage point. The hotel is very conveniently located for scenic spots and various restaurants. The hotel's own restaurant is Michelin-starred. All in all, it's a beautiful stay.

The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The front desk staff was very attentive. The Michelin-starred restaurant on the 4th floor shares a breakfast space with the hotel, and you can enjoy a sea view there. The gentleman serving in the restaurant was very kind, patiently explained the dishes, and even tried to communicate in Chinese. For the same price point, this hotel offers excellent value for money.

Everything was perfect, from check-in to check-out. The hotel administrators were always welcoming and ready to help. The hotel was clean, and the breakfasts were delicious with a magnificent view of Galataport. It was quiet in the evenings because the street is car-free. Istanbul is a noisy city, so the hotel's location is a huge plus. The bathroom with toiletries was beyond all praise! Every night before we returned, they would turn on music on the TV, lay out our pajamas, and leave chocolates. Upon arrival, we were greeted with two glasses of delicious wine and capsule coffee.
