The realistic view

Beyond the first impression

Verified information only

A 336-room business and conference hotel next to the Viaport Asia mall in Kurtköy, a few kilometres from Sabiha Gökçen Airport. It works well for early flights, events and the Pendik–Tuzla–Gebze business belt, but it is roughly 29 km from central Istanbul.

What it does well

  • Travellers with early departures or late arrivals at Sabiha Gökçen
  • Business trips to the Tuzla, Gebze and Pendik industrial areas

What to watch for

  • City-breakers: Sightseers who want to be near the Old City or Beyoğlu
  • Explorers on foot: Anyone expecting to walk to a metro station

The stay

Editor's notes

Room types

According to the official site there are 336 rooms: 224 standard, 16 corner, 62 Club, 12 Premium rooms, 16 junior suites, 2 presidential suites and 4 accessible rooms. Rooms start at 35 m². Club rooms and suites include Club Lounge access, which makes sense for business stays; corner rooms are the pick if you want more space.

Noise & sound insulation

The hotel sits near the E80 motorway inside a shopping complex, yet reviewers describe rooms as quiet. There is not enough concrete data to assess soundproofing in detail.

Extra fees & things to know

On bed-and-breakfast rates, food beyond breakfast and all drinks are extra. Sources conflict on whether the airport shuttle is free, so confirm when booking. Some guests find bar and room-service drink prices high.

Pool, spa & fitness

There is an indoor pool, a seasonal outdoor pool, a Turkish bath, sauna, hot tub, a spa with massage and aromatherapy, and a fitness centre. Some reviewers say the outdoor pool could be better maintained.
