Jaunted

The lounge itself is quite spacious and includes an impressive selection of food options, including a chef's station that makes omelettes as if it's in a hotel and not in an airport. There's plenty of local and international options for food as well as a staffed coffee/tea bar, which was quite lovely.

An office area has plenty iMacs, a kids section has Playstations and a stately library includes a pool table. The lounge's seating areas are quite large on their own, with the bonus of secret quieter areas if you don't plop down in the first comfortable seat you find.

What I Liked:
· Food options were extensive, both local and international.
· Decor is really cool with the curved ceilings and traditional Turkish inspiration.
· Bathroom was very nice and clean, with attention to detail.
· The Turkish coffee station is excellent with its fresh juice, teas and lots of options.

What I Didn't Like:
· It's really just one thing. The internet access details are not offered at the front, but rather at the back where an attendant behind a desk gives you a small bit of paper with the info on it. It's a waste of paper and annoying to be sent back and forth.

Overall I give it a 9 out of 10. The Turkish Airlines flagship lounge is definitely a sweet two-hour interval between flights.
