A nice older hotel with lovely staff and a great location for me, near the train station (as I was laying over between train journeys). The room had everything I needed and the neighbourhood was full of shops and restaurants.

The hotel is located in a very central area in Ankara, which made our arrival and departure very easy. The Antikabir just 10 minutes away and most of the rooms has a nice view to it, which we really liked. The Ankara Castle and the graphic old town are are almost 40 minutes away by feet and also there are many beautiful parks close by for walking and relaxing. All of the staff were really kind and discreet throughout our stay. The hotel has also some beautiful spaces, perfect for food, drinks or even relaxing. The food that we ordered to our room was delicious and in a very reasonable price which surprised us positively. Our room was spacious, very comfortable and with a big comfy bed. We had room service every day and there was always staff in the reception ready to help you with whatever you need. All in all we are very satisfied with our stay and we will choose again if we visit Ankara in the future.

The stuff was great - they wanted to help with everything and since we had to leave very early in the morning, before breakfast, they've arranged us lunch boxes. Spa is included in hotel price, towels can be rented for free, and only swimming caps need to be bought, but they're cheap. Spa is really nice, just the pool water can be a bit hotter. Location is great - it's close to the train station which is good of one needs to catch a train for wherever. Room was clean and spacious and upon arrival you get a cute personalized note, cookies and apples which is a nice detail! You can choose different pillows (you literally have a pillow menu) - I didn't like mine, but I had the option to change it for some other. It's also cool that you can cast Netflix, YouTube, Disney+.

All of the hotel staff were excellent: very polite, kind, and very helpful. The hotel is quite beautiful and in a convenient location. The room was comfortable, clean, and spacious and in a quiet and peaceful corridor which I really appreciated. The restaurant is good and the food and drinks very nice. There is also a small coffee shop at the bottom of the hotel which is convenient.

Having frequented Ankara for regular trips, I've made the Ickale Hotel my go-to accommodation, and for good reason. The hotel's strategic location proves to be one of its strongest assets - nestled conveniently close to the city center, it offers easy access to major business districts and tourist attractions while maintaining a peaceful atmosphere. The wellness facilities are truly the crown jewel of this establishment. The swimming pool is well-maintained and spacious enough for both leisure swimming and proper exercise. However, it's the authentic Turkish Hamam that sets this hotel apart from its competitors. The traditional bath house experience, combined with a modern sauna, provides an exceptional way to unwind after a busy day. The accommodations exceed expectations in terms of both space and comfort. The rooms are generously sized, offering ample space to work and relax. The sleeping experience is particularly noteworthy - the beds feature high-quality mattresses that strike an ideal balance between firmness and comfort. The thoughtful selection of pillows, varying in firmness and size, ensures a customized sleeping experience for every guest. Cleanliness is clearly a top priority, evident in every aspect of the hotel. The housekeeping staff maintains impeccable standards, from the spotless bathroom fixtures to the carefully pressed linens. The attention to detail extends to the regular sanitization of all surfaces and amenities.

I absolutely love this hotel! It is truly a great place to stay, offering excellent facilities and a welcoming atmosphere. The swimming pool, hammam, and sauna are particularly impressive—perfect for relaxation during the weekend or after a long day. The location is also fantastic, with easy access to both Kızılay and the railway station, making it convenient for exploring the city. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and will definitely be looking forward to coming back again!

My stay was absolutely wonderful! The location is perfect—convenient and easily accessible, very close to the railway station and public transport, which made my trip even more enjoyable. The hotel itself is impressive—stylish, spotless, and equipped with all the amenities one could ask for. What stood out the most was the staff—exceptionally kind, professional, and always ready to help. Their warm hospitality truly made a difference, and I felt welcomed throughout my stay. I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely be returning in the future!

We booked a suite for 4 people and It was really big, with 4 large beds and a huge bathroom. Moreover they changed the first room we were put into, with another identical, because there was a leak in the bathroom. The staff was very kind. We had dinner in the room, from the hotel restaurant, which was very good. There is a free spa for hotel customers with hot swimming pool, sauna, Turkish bath, hammam, salt room and massages (these for a fee). There are also car wallet and a garage. The price is very good for all the services: definitely suggested!

It was my first ever trip to Ankara and this hotel was a great choice! Mostly we liked the staff - super nice and friendly guys at the reception, very caring cleaning lady at the floor and good people at the spa. We also liked breakfast, it had a big variety and was pretty healthy. Spa is calm and their working hours are great. Was going there every day. Although the pool is pretty short, I was able to make 3-4 km swims due to the fact there was no one else. The rooms were clean
