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.). Upon its completion in 1992, 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. Hilton Izmir remained as the tallest building in İzmir and the Aegean Region until 2014, when the 47-floor (200 m (656 ft)) Folkart Twin Towers were completed. The hotel is an hour of driving distance from Ephesus, 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.

Hilton Izmir permanently closed its doors on October 16, 2020
