( 212-292 4949; www.tomtomsuites.com ; Tomtom Kaptan Sokak 18; ste €185-720; Karaköy, then
funicular to Tünel) We're more than happy to beat the drum about this suite hotel occupying
a former Franciscan nunnery off İstiklal Caddesi. Its contemporary decor is understated
but elegant, with particularly impressive bathrooms, and each suite is beautifully appoin-
ted. There's also a rooftop bar/restaurant with fantastic views

ive and very comfortable apartments opened in 2009 and are wearing well. Housed in two
adjacent 19th-century buildings, they are perfect for families or for those on business.
Good work-desks, large beds, well-equipped kitchens, home-entertainment systems and
ample wardrobe space offer all the comforts of home, sometimes with extraordinary
views. A four-night minimum stay applies.

Karaköy) Cleverly retaining its old-world charm while at the same time introducing an im-
pressive range of modern amenities, this five-storey building offers one stylish apartment
on each floor. Each has a bedroom, bathroom, living room and kitchenette; the top one has
a spectacular view. The location on Galata's most atmospheric street couldn't be better.

Beyoğlu's major entertainment enclave makes this high-rise modern hotel an excellent
choice. Added extras include a health club, a tiny outdoor pool and the Mikla ( CLICK HERE
