Crowne Plaza Bursa Convention Center & Thermal Spa by IHG is our Luxury pick in Bursa and the only 5-star hotel among our three. It suits couples and families who want a full hotel: a spa, a pool, a gym, a restaurant, a garden, a terrace and family rooms are all listed. Business travellers will also note the convention centre in the name.
Skip it if your trip is about the old city on foot. The best-known mosques are more than an hour's walk away. Also skip it if the outdoor pool is the main draw, because guests say it is often closed.
Location and getting around
The address is Odunluk Mah. Akpinar Cad. No:17 16110 Nilufer Bursa. Guests rate the location 9.4 out of 10 and say it is close to a metro station, shopping malls, cafes and restaurants.
Historic sights are a different matter. As straight-line walking estimates, the Grand Mosque of Bursa is 6.1 km, about 76 minutes. The Green Mosque, Bursa is 7.2 km, about 90 minutes. Emir Sultan Mosque is 7.7 km, about 96 minutes. All three are far, so plan on public transport or a taxi. Free parking is listed if you have a car.
What guests say
The score is 9.0 out of 10 from 1,253 reviews, joint 1st of 9 eligible properties on review score in the sample we checked.
Guests praise the location for daily needs and the staff, described as friendly and professional, with a warm welcome and helpful service. The weak point is the pool area. The indoor thermal facilities are warm and well liked, but the outdoor area is often closed, which disappoints people who expected to use it.
Price and how it compares with our other Bursa picks
The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 November, 2 adults, one room) was €99.90 per night, slightly above the sample median of €86.82. It is a reference price, not a live quote, so check today's price for your dates.
Lilium Hotel & Suites, our Best Value pick, was €73.88 per night with an 8.9 score and 4 stars. Ibis Bursa, our Budget pick, was €58.94 per night with an 8.2 score and 3 stars. The Crowne Plaza costs about €26 more per night than Lilium for a fifth star, the thermal spa and a marginally higher score. For a spa stay that gap is small. If you only need a bed, Lilium is the sharper deal.
Breakfast options listed are continental, halal, American and buffet. Whether breakfast is included in your rate is not confirmed.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 9 hotels in Bursa. Our Luxury slot goes to five-star hotels first, and this one has 5 official stars along with a 9.0 from 1,253 reviews, the joint top review score in the sample. A price close to the city median made it an easy choice.
