The most preferred venue for convention tourism is convention hotels, which are designed to host national and international meetings and which are the largest of the accommodation facilities. It is seen that the cities which are most preferred for congresses in different countries stand out with qualified convention hotels. Convention hotels should have special design criteria and provide spatial standards to meet the needs of congress participants and to attract more congresses to that city. According to the Turkey Tourism Strategy 2023 Action Plan, it is also necessary to carry out studies about this subject in Bursa which is identified as one of the cities that have appropriate infrastructure for convention tourism. Thus, the aim of this study is to reveal the design criteria and the spatial standards of convention hotels and within this framework to analyze the quality of hotels in which congresses held in Bursa. As a method in the study, literature research, physical assessment of the hotels in Bursa and interviews with related persons were conducted. In the case study, the most preferred convention hotels in different countries and the hotels where congresses are mostly held in Bursa were analyzed and compared according to their location, architectural design, spatial organization and spatial standards.. As a result, it was seen that hotels in Bursa did not meet the design criteria and spatial standards in the current literature. Thus, a recommendation list were developed for convention hotel design to contribute to design of new convention hotels for developing convention tourism in Bursa.
