Reopened on October 22, 2026 as the first lounge in Türkiye built to TAV's new Primeclass concept, after a renovation that expanded it to 380 square meters. The room is split into zones for working, dining, socializing and resting, with a library of books on design, travel and local culture, lockable storage for bags, and a menu built around Anatolian ingredients with plant-forward dishes, shared plates and all-day snacks. Local artists' work hangs throughout, and the entrance-level bar sits under a paper ceiling installation.
