Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts is delighted to announce the opening of the 176-room Mövenpick Hotel Ankara, a new exciting contemporary hotel based in the heart of the Turkish capital's fast-developing Söğütözü business district.
Just 30km from the city's international airport, the district is rapidly becoming a business base for global companies such as EON, BP and Oracle as well as home to Turkish government ministries,
cutting edge medical facilities, ambitious media companies and luxurious residential developments.
The hotel is just 500 metres from the biggest convention and exhibition centre in Ankara, the newly opened 80,000 sqm Congresium, and next door to the prestigious five-storey, 155-store Armada Shopping Mall, a winner of the "Best Shopping Mall of the Year" voted by the International Council of Shopping Centres.
"Ankara's success as an international business hub is helping to shape Turkey's reputation as a global economic powerhouse," says Ola Ivarsson, chief operating officer for Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts in Europe. "The city is the perfect location for our third hotel in Turkey after openings in Istanbul and Izmir and a great demonstration of our confident international growth."
"The combination of a convenient business location and the reputation for Swiss reliability, care and authentic warm welcome that Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts brings to the hotel are certain to ensure it will be a great success," said Enis Pekuysal, president of Varan Otelcilik A.S., the owning company of the property.
