The design is inspired by Scandinavian style. The hotel also offers free Wi-Fi to all guests. The hotel will offer two restaurants to its guests, Kolcuoglu and Queen. At Kolcuoglu, visitors can enjoy local cuisine and various authentic specialties, such as the Adana kebab. Queen will be focused on international cuisine and will offer the a la carte menu.
