The hype
Travelers universally praise the cleanliness and soundproofing but lament the lack of a free shuttle.
Ibis Ankara Airport
$70-90 / nat
Bestil hvis You have a layover at ESB and value sleep over sightseeing.
Hvorfor folk elsker det
- Dead silent soundproofing despite being near the runway
- 24-hour check-in that actually works smoothly
- Spotless, modern rooms that feel brand new
Hurtig oversigt: A sterile, spotless sleeping pod on a highway shoulder where you are completely trapped without a car.
Anmeldt af @Ksenia_i: I arrived here so tired I forgot what city I was in, but this room was a solid reset. The minimalist design is actually super cozy, the blackout curtains work perfectly, and the staff are gems. Plus, the breakfast was way better than I expected. A reliable transit spot.

Reality check
You will likely feel 'nickel-and-dimed' by the lack of a shuttle and the paid breakfast, but the room quality usually makes up for it.
- You need 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep before a 6 AM flight
- You have a rental car (free parking is ample)
- You are a cleanliness freak who hates 'tired' airport hotels

- Maintenance: Like new. No peeling wallpaper, scuffed baseboards, or dripping faucets.
- Linens & towels: Crisp, white, and stiff. Not luxury soft, but reassuringly sanitized.
- Odors & scents: Neutral. No heavy perfumes, no stale smoke—just the smell of cleaning products.

Ofte stillede spørgsmål og skjulte tips
Alt hvad du gerne vil vide før du booker.
Is there a free shuttle to the airport?
No. You must take a taxi (4 mins, ~150-200 TRY) or the 442 bus (cheaper but requires a walk).
Can I walk to the airport?
Technically yes (2-3km), but dangerously no. It's a highway shoulder with no sidewalk. Do not attempt.
Is there a gym?
No. There is no fitness center on-site, despite what some third-party booking sites might claim.
What is the food situation?
One on-site restaurant serving average international/Turkish fare. Breakfast is ~€10. No other restaurants within walking distance.
Can I order food delivery?
Yes! Apps like Yemeksepeti and Getir deliver here. This is the best hack for better/cheaper food.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, pets are allowed, usually for a small surcharge. Contact the hotel in advance to confirm.
Insidertips
- ✨
Use the 'Yemeksepeti' app to order local kebabs or pizza to the lobby—much better and cheaper than the hotel menu.
- ✨
If you have a long layover (6+ hours), the 442 bus stops near the hotel and goes straight to Kızılay (city center) for cheap.
- ✨
The 'Garden' is just a patch of grass near the parking lot, but it's the only spot for fresh air.
5 ting du bør vide før du tager af sted
💡The shower pressure is surprisingly excellent—high pressure, hot water instantly.
💡There are no slippers provided, so bring your own for the hard laminate floors.
💡The 'City View' is actually a view of a highway and a distant industrial park.
💡The AC is centrally controlled in some seasons, meaning you might not be able to make it arctic cold in winter.
💡Housekeeping is aggressive—if you don't hang the 'Do Not Disturb' sign, they *will* knock by 9 AM.
