Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts is delighted to announce the opening of the 176-room Mövenpick Hotel Ankara in Turkey. “Ankara’s success as an international business hub is helping to shape Turkey’s reputation as a global economic powerhouse,” said Ola Ivarsson, COO, 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, Varan Otelcilik A.S., the owning company of the property.
The design of the hotel reflects the curved shape of Turkey’s famous Nazar Boncugu – the eye-shaped amulet traditionally worn to ward off evil – with a 12-storey central atrium and glass ceiling that floods the hotel with natural light.
Large flat-screen televisions, glass partitioned bathrooms and stunning city views are signatures of many of the superior rooms, while the dedicated executive floors on the 11th and 12th floors offer exclusive access to an executive lounge, terrace, meeting room, complimentary snacks and drinks and private check in.
With nine meeting spaces including the 390 square-metre Bern Ballroom, Mövenpick Hotel Ankara offers flexible function spaces that can be customised to host up to 450 guests. The hotel’s wellness and fitness centre includes four massage rooms, a Turkish ‘hammam’ bath, sauna, indoor plunge pool, whirlpool and cardio fitness zone. International spa classics as well as Turkish treatments are always available.
