Pros:

We had a delightful stay at Tomtom Suites. We very much appreciated its location on a
quiet street and in a neighborhood with many good restaurants and interesting shops.
The staff at Reception and in the restaurant were always welcoming and were
dedicated to making our stay an excellent one. Afternoon tea was delicious, and a great
way to meet and chat with other guests. The room was incredibly comfortable. The
breakfast is absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of fresh fruits, delicious yoghurt,
and breads as well as Turkish specialties. The view from the restaurant is spectacular,
too—a great way to start a long day of seeing the sites in Istanbul.

Flawless Experience and Incredible Breakfast
Pros:

An exceptional stay at the Tomtom, 5 stars without a second thought! Everything was absolutely perfect, starting with a remarkable welcome. The Wi-Fi worked flawlessly throughout the stay.

Would highly recommend staying here, a great location, lovely rooms and a bit of calm after the hussle and bussle of the
Pros:

The rooms were very spacious with lovely high ceilings and wooden floors. The bed was also really comfortable and the bathroom great

Cons:

Some rooms including ours looked out onto a courtyard but it really didn’t matter as we were out all day. The restaurant also just offered a very expensive tasting menu - again not a real problem as we chose to eat out as didn’t fancy the fuss of a tasting fancy meal.

Great base for Istanbul.
Pros:

Rooms are big and beautiful

Cons:

Mixed messages from staff. We asked to arrange for breakfast the day before we checked out. They asked us to confirm our order when we returned to the hotel. When we got back to the hotel, they said it was too late to order breakfast

Exceptional Hospitality
Pros:

The Tomtom is the epitome of good hospitality. The staff were exceptionally welcoming, friendly and helpful. Our room was very spacious, comfortable and clean. The breakfast featured a dozen delicious items, including fresh pastries. The building itself (a former convent) is full of character and charm. The location is perfect - on a quiet side street yet close to several lively neighbourhoods.
