Hilton Worldwide has opened its first Hilton Hotels & Resorts property on the Asian side of Istanbul.
Hilton Istanbul Kozyatagi is located between the city's two airports, with Istanbul Ataturk International a 28km drive away, and Istanbul Sabiha Goken 38km away.
The hotel contains 320 rooms, including 47 executive rooms and 23 suites.
It features 16 meeting rooms, including two ballrooms, a 24-hour business centre and a rooftop executive lounge.
Leisure facilities include a 24-hour fitness centre, an indoor swimming pool and a spa. There is a lounge/bar in the hotel's atrium, a rooftop restaurant and bar and a brasserie.
Rob Palleschi, global head of Hilton Hotels & Resorts, said: "We are proud to welcome Hilton Istanbul Kozyatagi connecting our portfolio to both sides of the Bosphorus.
"The hotel's enviable location means it is well suited to becoming a leading choice for travellers looking to experience all parts of Istanbul and well-known visitor sights."
Last month, Hilton Worldwide opened its tenth Doubletree property in London (see news, August 29).
