Food selection was limited to soup sandwiches, and dessert baked goods and cookies. Maybe because we arrived after dinner time? The spread also includes serve yourself alcohol, coffee machine, soda fountain. Entry fee varies. We got in free with Chase Reserve CC Priority Pass. I'll skip Comfort and HSBC next time and head straight to Primeclass Lounge downstairs.

I have been to the Ataturk airport multiple times and this was our second visit to the HSBC lounge…read more Both times we were here in the morning time period and the lounge was pretty full. As we have priority pass membership our lounge visits are free but usually the lounge costs at least $25. They have pretty good wifi and a good spread of food which includes a soup of the day, different sandwiches, fruits and drinks of all kind. I have been to many different lounges in different airports around the world but this one is starting to show its age. The furniture is getting old and the sofas are really uncomfortable plus they don't have enough charging outlets. So at some point the management of the lounge will have to update everything. The good part is that the Ataturk airport has lots of different options so if you don't feel satisfied with this one you can try other lounges which are within the same area of the terminal.

Incredible lounge! There are two lounges - business class and for mileage members. Since the walk…read moreto the business class lounge was far from my gate, I opted for the mileage members lounge. Oh boy, did this impress! I had such a wonderful experience flying on Turkish airlines into Istanbul. I wasn't hungry, but I was trying to find a quiet place to sit before my next flight. The lounge is huge with views of the airport. The acoustics are pretty amazing for how busy the airport and lounge is, it wasn't that loud. There are so many food stations with everything being made fresh. It was so hard to say no to another meal. I tried the homemade Turkish ravioli made with lamb, a Turkish coffee, and more. Delicious! I had some sweets before leaving too. Can't wait to try the business lounge when I head home!

The iGA Lounge at Istanbul Airport (IST) is a large, premium travel lounge offering extensive…read moreamenities like dining, showers, and relaxation areas for international and domestic departures, accessible via iGA Pass, partner airlines, or lounge programs like Priority Pass. It features a unique outdoor terrace, multiple food stations, and services such as massage (on select days) and prayer rooms, making it a comfortable option for various travelers, though it can get busy. I was shocked to learn this lounge had a less than 5 star rating. Travelers have gotten impatient and should realize the staff is working hard to maintain everything. Personally I give this lounge a 4.5 rating on a bad day. This lounge has a pool table which is really awesome.

One of the most beautiful and spacious airport lounges I've been to!…read moreI had an early morning flight and i arrived at this lounge around 4am- so glad they are open 24/7. Despite being super early, they did have limited selection of hot food. They even had an omelette station that opened a little later. Very clean, so many people working in every area keeping it clean. They have showers, a prayer room and many seats.

Upon my arrival, I saw 2 staff members chatting at the front desk. I waited until they finished, hoping they would notice me as nobody was there but me. I waited a while. Eventually one of them left. The other lady was acting as I was not there. I waited until she notices me, but somehow she did not see me. So I just presented my tickets and a Pass. She only said: "It doesn't work here". I asked her to check the system. She replied again: "It doesn't work here. It's paid". The whole time she didn't make an eye contact even once and did not check the system for my pass entrance, her response was pretty rude. I called Priority Pass after arrival to US to confirm I had the right information about the lounge. I had correct information, complaint filed. Such a disappointing experience.

The buffet food, which is free, is simple and filling. Good lentil soup, some simple cheeses and fruit. Also your choice of teas, coffee and soft drinks. Sorry no alcohol. I really like the convenience of the private bus test takes you directly to the plane. Allen all this relaxed atmosphere, comfy chairs, food/drink and small bus service to the plane makes the nominal fee worth it. Especially for long layovers.

There also two parallel lines that do the same thing, except one line might have one agent, while the others may have 2 or 3. We started at the first and realized there's just one woman working it. We moved to the next one when we saw that the other one was moving faster due to having multiple workers. At the actual gate, there's another security person checking your boarding card and passport to enter the enclosed area. Several entitled people decided they didn't need to wait and pushed to enter from the side, causing a scene. At boarding time, you have to show your passport and boarding card again. It's safe, but it's a lot of checks. Allow enough time.

There are two levels of security -- first bag and person scanning to get into the terminal, and a second security screening after check-in on way to gates. Lines were long but moved quickly. Check-in for Turkish Airlines (TK) flights was long and slow. Fortunately, we used TK mobile check-in and didn't wait in a queue.
