The TK lounge in IST was maybe one of the most beautiful lounges I've seen! I really liked the traditional turkish interior with the chandaliers, and the antique lookeig chairs. Really something different from today's so called espresso'ish trend design seen in most lounges. The food offerings looked average. One thing i really liked was the Mosque, it looked very nice and I'm sure many Muslims appreciate it.
