Single, middle aged male traveler staying here in October 2011.
Having spent three weeks traveling and staying in budget accommodation in other towns in Turkey , I decided to "treat" myself to 4 star.
I paid £45 per night , including breakfast and it was "off-season".
Despite being "off-season" Antalya was still fairly busy with tourists and in this first week of October it was hot and sunny every day (28 degrees) and about 18 degrees at night. A sweatshirt type garment was needed at night time. The sea was still perfect temperature for lengthy swims.
The hotel itself is ugly on the outside but lovely on the inside.
On my first night I was allocated a city view but asked to change to sea view on my second day and it was no problem at all.
The room was attractive and provided in room wi-fi and satellite television. There was a mimi-bar and room service.
The bathroom was clean and attractive , the shower was excellent.
The bed was very comfortable.
The breakfast buffet is PHENOMENAL. Best breakfasts I encountered during my entire stay in Turkey.
Salads, meats,cheeses, rolls, sweet rolls, cereals,tea, coffe , juices and fresh whole fruits and different styles of eggs every morning (one morning scrambled, one morning fired, one morning omlettes, one morning "eggy" bread. The food goes on and on and you can eat as much as you want.
The staff are amazing , professional and friendly.
On departure day , my flight was not until 2200 that evening but they allowed me to use all their facilities and pool for the entire day (whilst they stored my luggage) and allowed me to shower and change etc... in the sauna area before I left.
The ONLY negative was the swimming pool. The fresh water pool is FREEZING cold. 90 percent of people will NOT even have the courage to go in . I did BUT on each occasion I could only last 30 seconds in it . Such a shame , as it would have been nice to have lengthy swimming sessions.
The location is second to none and this hotel is truly worthy of its' 4 stars. I HIGHLY recommend it.
