Hilton Izmir, Hotel and skyscraper in Konak, Turkey
Hilton Izmir is a 33-story tower clad in marble and steel that rises 142 meters above Konak in the heart of the city. The building features four elevators throughout and a rooftop restaurant where diners enjoy views across the Aegean region.
Construction began in 1988 and was completed in 1992, at which point it became Izmir's tallest building until 2014. Its completion marked a turning point in the city's modern architectural development.
The hotel serves as a gathering place where international business meetings and social events bring people together from around the world. It has become a backdrop for important gatherings in the city.
The building is serviced by four elevators that reach all floors, making navigation straightforward throughout the structure. The rooftop restaurant offers a good vantage point to view the city from above.
During the 1990s, the structure ranked as Turkey's third-tallest building, behind only Mertim Tower in Mersin and Sheraton Ankara. This position reflected its importance among the country's skylines during that decade.
