This is a very good hotel, though it clearly does not deserve to be ranked among the world's top 100 (a big sign posted near the entrance boasts that it was deemed the world's 58th best in a recent comparison). The location is on the hill overlooking Ankara, where air pollution is supposed to be less severe, but it's not ideal for walking around and shopping. The rooms are comfortable, the swimming pool is semi-Olympic in size, and the place is very clean. Breakfast is not that great for this category of hotel. The price is very reasonable, but then, the city isn't exactly a touristic magnet.

I know the Radisson and the Swissotel in Ankara. The Swissotel is clearly top, and I struggle to see how it could be beaten. The rooms are comfortable and big, and the gym/pool is just great. My choice, without hesitation.

Stayed here for a few months on business and was impressed by my glimpse of how the 1% live. Beautiful hotel and facilities but horribly expensive for food and drink. Not a holiday hotel but excellent base to meet fellow plutocrats.

To add to the reviews I agree with (great staff, clean secure rooms, beautiful bathroom, great breakfast) I am attempting to add some further detail.

The bathroom has a very nice deep tub for soaking and at first, a strange window looking into the bedroom - but I realized it is placed so that you can see the TV while soaking in the rub. The window does have blinds that can be closed for privacy. I don't think anyone has mentioned the fact that the shower has a giant rain shower head that is very pleasant - you can toggle hand held or the overhead shower. Pleasant mild shampoo, conditioner, soap, shower gel, lotion, cotton balls, nail file is provided along with hair dryer. Very clean.

The room has a comfortable bed, flat screen TV with a number of channels (a few in English), desk, comfy chair and adequate lighting in the room (one of my major pet peeves with some hotels that are dark and cave-like.)

The breakfast buffet as mentioned is excellent with a wide variety of Turkish, American\English and Continental food choices - enough that most everyone should be pleased. My deal for the room did not include the cost of the breakfast, which ended up being around $25 US - but you do get good value for the money. Most of my companions had the breakfast included in their room charge.

It's been mentioned how nice the gym\pool and Turkish bath areas are, but I must say the pool was one of the cleanest I have ever seen. Beautful colored tiles and lounge areas by the pool add to the relaxing ambience. I did not have a chance to use the spa on the same floor as the gym\pool, but wonderful scented air greets you upon entering the floor from the spa.

I attended a party in one of the conference rooms on the atrium level and the service and food were excellent.

I highly recommend this hotel. The only possible drawback is that it is located outside of the city in a residential area, so if you want to be able to walk to bars and restaurants outside of the hotel, your choices are limited. I will say that there is a market bazaar just a couple of blocks from the hotel that has a wide variety of tourist trinkets, clothing, fruit/veg stalls, decorative items, and outstide vendor stalls that is fun.
