InterContinental Grand Ankara

About InterContinental Grand Ankara

InterContinental Grand Ankara is a large luxury hotel on Atatürk Bulvarı in Kavaklıdere, directly across the boulevard from the Grand National Assembly of Türkiye. The building has a long history in the capital: it first opened as The Grand Ankara Hotel in 1966, and after an extensive transformation it reopened under IHG's InterContinental brand in June 2026. IHG's announcement puts the renovated hotel at 342 guestrooms (the hotel's own page says 339), ranging from classic and premium rooms to junior, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and royal suites, with private residences as well. Interiors pair contemporary design with subtle local touches. The main restaurant, LOQQANTA 06, is led by Executive Chef Emre İnanır and combines international dishes with Anatolian ingredients and traditional Turkish cooking; it serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, and there is also a lobby bar. Wellness centres on a 1,500-square-metre spa with indoor and outdoor pools, alongside a fitness centre. For events, the hotel has three ballrooms and a range of meeting rooms. The concierge team can arrange visits to local neighbourhoods, restaurants and the city's cultural scene. Practical notes: check-in is from 2pm and check-out by noon, the minimum check-in age is 18, there is on-site parking and EV charging, and pets are accepted for a fee. The location puts ministries, embassies, Kızılay and Kavaklıdere within easy reach.
