Very spacious and nice lounge area. I've been here several times already. There are many places to relax in a variety of formats, you can comfortably sit in an armchair with a lamp and read a book, you can sit at a table and work on a laptop. There are spaces away from the main hall where you can sit in almost silence. The choice of food and drinks is very large, of course, with a focus on local Turkish cuisine.
A normal business hall, a lot of food, alcohol and various drinks. We were there from 14-16 on Tuesday, there are a lot of people, but there is also a lot of space. The queue at the entrance passed quickly. If you consider what prices are in Turkey now, it's better to sit in this room for a walk through the bank. At full cost, of course, I don't know if it's worth it or not.
Minuses:
I don't understand why there are so many fives. What do people compare with (compared to Novosibirsk Tolmachevo, only is it possible to put more than four stars).
According to the world level, this is only three stars.
There are quite a few places, but there are clearly not enough for everyone. People are scouring for empty seats.
The food is mediocre. The choice of food is weak. There are only a lot of sweet things.
The location of the lounge is inconvenient. Some of the signs are turned the wrong way.
50 euros (October 2024) inadequate entry price.
Positive:
There is a terrace for smokers.
The child's room.
Shower.
Responsive staff. The food is not bad. You can eat as much as you want. A variety of drinks. There is both wine and beer. Also tea and coffee. There are places to relax. The shower room.
A very good place to rest. Charge your phone, refresh yourself and have a snack that you need between transfers, the food is very decent, the atmosphere is pleasant
People who write negative reviews, I sincerely do not understand you)
Are you waiting for some kind of five-star Michelin here for the money you pay for admission?
Great huge business lounge. A huge selection of delicious food. They clean up in a timely manner. The opportunity to sit quietly, charge your phone, go to the shower / toilet. What else do you need?
We are very happy and satisfied that we have the opportunity to spend time before the flight or during the flight delay.
The worst case scenario. The international airport, but there is nothing to eat (hot food is almost always empty), snacks are only local cuisine, some mixed salads. There was nothing but bread and cheese for breakfast, not even eggs -they were out. The bottom level. The furniture is all worn and dirty (upholstered chairs), the staff who make sure of cleanliness for three hours of my stay passed by about four times and each time talking loudly to each other, not at all shy to interfere with the vacationers, even the remark did not work.
Too overrated. A huge number of people. From the hot - bulgur. Meat is served with 20 kebabs per 200 people every half hour. Turkish sweets are present. Cocktails are served every other day at the bar. Mostly gin and tonic. Alcohol is better than Vnukovo and Sheremetyevo, and food is much worse. I do not recommend anyone to buy a passage for real money
This is a very busy hall. This is not a classic elite business lounge at all. First, you stand in line for 15 minutes to enter, then you look for a place to sit down. Queues for food, and we are not talking about diversity.
the bar has spirits, wine and beer. Everything is on tap.
There's definitely no point in paying money. If the freebie is from the bank, then it makes sense.
Excellent business lounge at Istanbul Airport
For an adequate fee, you get a great opportunity to relax, have a snack and even take a shower while waiting for your flight.
A great place to spend time before departure. The menu has not been changed in at least a few months. Breakfast is so-so, lunch is a choice, ayran is a credit))
A lot of people, a lack of places. The complete feeling of some kind of oriental bazaar or peripheral railway station. If possible, it is better to go to another business hall!
A huge number of visitors. Queues at the entrance. Inside, almost all the tables are occupied. Those that have already been eaten do not have time to clean up. The range of food and drinks is not bad

As in a Turkish hotel 2-3 stars. Nice room, cozy. A large selection of drinks, there is a hot one. $ 50 seems to be unjustified, but if you use a business card, then the norms are better than many Russian ones.
Don't waste passes and time. There are sooooooo many people. The food is scarce. You will lose a lot of time. Sooo much. I was there 3 times and each time it turned out in puffs
Clear.
The food is disgusting, there is no choice, there are no normal fresh vegetables.
They are constantly repairing something somewhere, even at night, the sounds of a drill do not allow you to rest.
Little and not varied food, but so clean and quiet

We went there with a friend to get high, everything was as it was said) I recommend going there at least once in my life) everything is free there alcohol, drinks, food, salad, cakes absolutely everything is free)
I'm putting a full 5 ku. A very good lounge , insanely delicious desserts and pizza , drinks for every taste , you can even take sandwiches on a plane with you, sofas or armchairs or chairs , too, please. The only thing was that the sockets didn 't work for some reason .
Well, our Russian people are something)))) 4 plates to collect pizza and try to carry away the 5th, ours can be seen for kilometers)))))
And so everything is fine, the lounge is satisfied.
Sincerely, Anastasia
Right off the cons:
- Far from passport control. Very far away.
- There is little food and there are queues for it.
- There are few outlets.
- Wifi is very slow.
- A lot of people.
Positive:
- There are free food and drinks.
- There is a terrace for smokers.
In general, it's better than nothing, but I wouldn't go here for money.
It's okay! You can have a full lunch. There is a children's menu, a bar. You can take a shower. However, when we were there, there was a problem with places - there were too many visitors. I did not like the quality of the Internet-it is constantly changing. Therefore, 4 stars
Money was stolen from us in this lounge! the only time we flashed cash was when paying for the lounge, we took only euros, left rubles) from the lounge we went straight to the plane, where we found the loss (
