The hotel is wonderful, everything was very pleasant!
Firstly, the location is very convenient: on the first line, a 25-minute walk along the coastal promenade is the Ancient Side, we walked there almost every evening. The private beach is quite large, there are always sun beds (special thanks to Ali, the hotel employee in charge of the beach - he is so attentive to all guests and will always help). Very comfortable entry into the sea, smooth, without rocks. The territory of the hotel is quite large. There is a special feature in it - a cascading arrangement, in tiers. At first it seems difficult to remember where everything is, but in a couple of days everything is quickly remembered. There are a lot of stairs, and this is great, it allows you not to bring home extra pounds from delicious local food. For those who find it difficult to get around like this, there are elevators and a funicular. Judging by the audience, it doesn't bother the older guests either. The audience is mostly Europeans, Germany, the Netherlands, by the way, many of them are former Russians, mostly older than average, and there are a few Russians. There are several a la carte restaurants and bars on site. The food, in my opinion, is simply gorgeous! Sometimes it doesn't even come to themed restaurants, it's so delicious and varied in the main restaurant. Separately, I would like to mention such relevant accents as the availability of dietary nutrition and lactose-free milk! They feed you around the clock. Drinks are also plentiful, there are both local and original imported ones. Special thanks to the waiters Mehmet, Mohammed, Hussein, Adnan! Animation throughout the day, evening performances in the amphitheater and live music in the bar. In general, the hotel has a very correct, customer-oriented policy, attentive and welcoming attitude towards guests from all staff, and the appropriate tone is set by the management, constantly present in the life of the hotel, it is all visible and felt. The pearl of the hotel is the sincere and charming Saadat - guest relations, which will help you solve any issues, and even in Russian, which makes this task so much easier. Many thanks to her! We were also lucky with the hotel guide from Anex - charming Alexandra will always come to the rescue and solve any problem. We were initially accommodated in an unsuccessful room, but in the next few days, at our request, we were moved to a nice, comfortable room with a good view. It is very pleasant that departing guests are given the opportunity to use the shower room after vacating the room to clean themselves up before departure, you just need to make an appointment at the reception in advance. In general, no matter what you touch, everything is fine, everything is taken care of by the guest. The rest was just wonderful, I didn't want to leave, but I'd love to come back here!

We stayed at this hotel three times. And we really hope that this will not be the last time!! The hotel is great!! A hotel for a relaxing, decent stay. Although there are children's slides and animation, but there are few children! Therefore, everything is calm and at a high level. The hotel is no longer new, all the reflections of the time under renovation are visible. I would like to see changes in this area next year. But about this, it is clear that this is a 5-star hotel with a soul and a history! The staff is lovely, the food is varied. An excellent beach!!! There are a lot of multi-level bars on the territory of the hotel. If you want a piano, if you want live music, no, there are evening shows! Near the old town, a great promenade back and forth along the sea. I recommend it for families of 40+!
