“Great hotel”

It's a great hotel in the middle of the old town. It's a really nice place. There is a small beach 50m from the hotel. Everything is close - market, restaurants, shops, pubs...

“Better than expected”

Long assosiation with Turkey but had not visited Antaly city before. For tourist purposes this small hotel is in an excellent position above and very near the harbour and impressed with its high standards of decor and comfort. The immediate area of the old city is a warren of narrow street and hills and would probably best be avoided by those with restricted mobility. UK visitors will find that Sterling is not popular in Antalya the Euro being the preferred currency. If the hotel is available at the price of last visit I would deffently consided returning.

“great location”

Hotel is in an awesome location. Right near the harbor. Good views. Breakfast was the usual for turkey, bread eggs cheese olives tomatoes. The guy running the place was nice. Spoke broken english but seemed fluent in german. He got a bit grumpy when he saw we bought water from somewhere else.

“Ashtray next to a No Smoking sign?”

Great location, in the heart of the old town. The front desk was a bit snobby on check-in though, and the credit card reader (or credit card reader operator) was not able to read either of my two completely functional cards. Expedia booked the room in Euros, and the front desk required that I pay immediately on check-in either with Euros, which I do not carry, or Lira at a somewhat disadvantageous exchange rate. The morning front desk guy was much nicer. The room was excellent excepting that the hotel has no elevator and that the room -reeked- of cigarette smoke, having both an ashtray and a no smoking sign. There were reportedly no other rooms available. I'd stay here again if there was nothing else available, but every other building in the old town is a hotel so look around.

“Not what it claims to be. Keep your expectations very low”

The room was nothing special. It was moderate sized and the bed wasn't very comfortable. The TV provided was very small (probably 12" or 14"). The air conditioner could only by switched on/off by calling reception and had no temperature control. The bathroom was old, small, dimly lit and depressing. Upon returning to our room on the second evening, we came across 2 cockroaches in the room. After communicating this to the management with much difficulty (no comprehension over the phone. Had to climb down two stories and try to explain with hand gestures and miming!!) was helpfully informed that they didn't have any bug spray and I should kill them with my hand (or shoe) and the cleaning lady would dispose off the carcasses the next morning!! The bug problem wasn't solved during our stay. I eventually had to kill them myself. The breakfast was minimal with no variety (bread, olives and boiled eggs) and the few things available seemed stale. The near-by beach mentioned in the description is a sad excuse of a beach, You have to pay to access it and it has just enough room to hold 15 tightly crammed people. The better option is to take the tram to Konyaalti Beach (a truly nice pebbled beach). True to form, the hotel staff failed to provide us with this information as well. Thankfully the local shopkeepers around were much more helpful. On the whole the hotel and service were very bad and there are much better and cheaper options available. We would definitely not stay here again.
