Location Location Location. Besides that, My room was great tastefully decorated and the bed was extremely comfortable and inviting -:) The staff was cheerful and helpful. We have stayed in similarly priced hotels where the rooms were \"worn and tired\". Not this one. It was clean and fresh and there was the sense that management cared about appearance. Alinda Hotel was a great find for us and we will stay there again and recommend all of you also .

the hotel is in a very good position for the town beach etc unfortunately this is about the only good thing the staff on the whole were very helpful apart from a few waiters who could be best described as ignorant and rude the room was basic but clean however the shower was pretty useless and very small and the smell from the drains is another story. some reviews have said the food was good most say poor go with the poor if you like cold chicken and meatballs every day great you will feel at home, compared to other hotels we have stopped at the food was bad and very poor selection,we ended up eating out after the first two days as after then the food got even worse.the area is beautiful and so are the people but if you can`t stand being constantly hassled to buy then this is not the place for you at the end of the day you get what you pay for as an all inclusive this hotel stinks worse than the drains. before anyone says you dont go abroad for the english food correct but i do expect food to be warm edible and have a decent variety however much i pay so if you want somewhere to stay as a base then go for it if you expect not to have to pay for food and drinks keep away as you will be dissapointed you have been warned

We stayed for seven nights. On the surface the hotels in good condition and generally the public areas are.

However the room was not firstly there was a huge step up to the bathroom for no apparent reason. Bedding and towels were not changed until I asked. When it rained the water seeped in under the windows and the laminate floor squelched and became slippery. There were cockroaches and other running insects when you turned the lights on at night. Plus points were working hairdryer, hot water whatever the time of day, and lots of sockets for charging the obligatory gadgets!!

We were all inclusive however the food was poor, there are only so many differently styles to cut a cucumber that does not make it any more varied!. The hot food was bland, it was randomly mixed, and sadly even at the start of lunch nearly cold. The Turkish offerings were very poor and the rest worse.

What was most perturbing was that what AI should have meant was not available for example Tea between 16.00-16.30 cakes were offered on only two occasions and ice cream ‘had finished’. The coffee was awful and taken advice from tea drinkers this was even worse. The beer was alleged to be Efees, sadly that was vile and the wine was like vinegar. We ate 3 breakfasts and 1 dinner oh and 6 chips once lunchtime.

Well it was nearly the end of the season however whether the first or last guest there you should get the same service. Staff chose to start cutting with welding gear an iron cover close to the pool one afternoon when guests were sat there, they were clearly oblivious to us relaxing and talking.

We had a later flight and we had had two rooms for our stay there was no courtesy room offered to us but we kept one room on from noon until 7.00pm for £15 English pounds, which was extortion. This is the first time I have never even been offered a shower room.

All in all I would not advise staying at the Alinda – there is far better available with not such a glossy outside but good basic food and service.


photos will be added.

Stayed at this hotel for 4 nights in August during Ramadan. Stayed in the Suite which is next to the eating area.

Room was spacious but in average condition. No soap or toiletries were provided. In all my travels i have never stayed in a hotel that did not provide this in the price of the room. Ants and cockroaches in the bathroom.

Meals and drinks were included but after one dinner decided we would eat out for all meals. Food was of average quality, no air conditioning in the dining room with the windows being left opened and flies on the food. Milk was not on anything to keep in cool.

Little restaurant next door to the hotel was great and the staff were always looking to make us welcome.

Pool area was average and preferred to spend our time at the beach.

Also had to pay 10 English pounds to use a safe, Again this is a first.

Love Icmeler, bit would not stay at this place again.
