The hotel and its location
Downtown Ankara Hotel is set in the Söğütözü business district on Eskişehir Road, among the shopping centres and office blocks of the capital's modern western side. Armada Mall is a short walk away, while Middle East Technical University (METU), Kentpark Mall and Anıtkabir are each a short drive. The hotel stands right beside Grand Mercure Ankara, with Mövenpick Ankara and JW Marriott Hotel Ankara just a few minutes' walk away.
Because Downtown Ankara Hotel shares almost the same spot as Grand Mercure Ankara, write the exact hotel name in your booking. Your driver will then pick you up at Esenboğa and drop you at the right entrance, so you won't have to carry your luggage from one building to the next.
