The realistic view

Beyond the first impression

Verified information only

A 90-room luxury hotel in Kavaklıdere that shares a compound — and its pool, spa and gym — with the Sheraton Ankara. Rooms are large with city views and butler service; expect a quiet, discreet city hotel rather than a full-scale wellness resort.

What it does well

  • Business travellers with meetings at embassies, ministries or offices in Kavaklıdere
  • Guests who want a smaller, quieter alternative to a large chain hotel
  • Travellers who like to walk to Tunalı Hilmi and Arjantin streets

What to watch for

  • The pool, spa and gym are shared with the Sheraton; there is no separate luxury wellness area.
  • Breakfast is usually extra; even when it's included, check your bill.

Inside the Sheraton Ankara compound in Kavaklıdere, next door to Karum shopping mall (about a 3-minute walk). Tunalı Hilmi and Arjantin streets are within walking distance; Kızılay Square is about 10 minutes by car. Anıtkabir is roughly 3.7 km away and Ankara railway station about 6 km. Taxi drivers may not know the Lugal entrance, so mention the Sheraton.

The stay

Editor's notes

Room types

90 units in total; the hotel says most rooms are around 60 m² with large windows and city views. One- and two-bedroom Apart Suites and the 180 m² Lugal Suite are available. Every room has a work desk, espresso machine and pillow menu, with butler service. If you're sensitive to light, pack an eye mask or ask for blackout curtains.

Noise & sound insulation

Quiet despite the central location; many reviews describe the rooms as calm. The more common sleep complaint is light, as curtains reportedly fall a few centimetres short.

Extra fees & things to know

Breakfast is generally charged separately; the brand fact sheet lists hot breakfast from EUR 30 and American breakfast from EUR 35. Some guests on 'breakfast included' rates were billed for it anyway, so check your folio at checkout. The minibar is charged. Basic Wi-Fi is free, while a faster Wi-Fi tier may carry a fee. Airport transfers are included in some suite packages but cost extra on standard rates.

Pool, spa & fitness

A heated indoor pool, sauna, steam room, hammam, massage rooms and gym are shared with the Sheraton, reached via a private lift and tunnel. There's also a rooftop tennis court and squash. Opinions on the pool and spa vary: some find them modest, others praise their upkeep.
