Hilton Izmir is a hotel in İzmir, Turkey, near the Old Town. The hotel tower has 33 floors with a panoramic restaurant at the top, and has a structural height of 142 metres (466 ft.).[2] Upon its completion in 1992,[1] Hilton Izmir became the tallest building in the city, and the third tallest building in Turkey after the 52-floor (176.8 metres (580 ft)) Mertim Tower (1987) in Mersin, and the 29-floor (143 metres (469 ft), including the spire) Sheraton Ankara (1991) in Ankara.

The hotel is an hour of driving distance from Ephesus,[3] the well-preserved ancient Ionian and Roman city.
The hotel has been nominated for the Leading Conference Hotel in Turkey award by the World Travel Awards.[4]
