Surprisingly, there is not a single complaint about the hotel, everything went like clockwork:
1. We arrived at midnight, settled us immediately without question, even fed us. The room is just fire, a double bed (instead of two shifted mattresses, as it happens), the air conditioner works, the water is without interruption, without blockages. In general, the renovation is fresh. There is also a wardrobe in the room, it has a full-length mirror, a huge mirror on the wall, 2 bedside tables, a table, an armchair, and a chest of drawers by the mirror. The balcony is tiny, but it's enough to dry things. Everything is clean, bathroom with shower, very spacious. Shampoo, soap and shower gel are provided.
2. A shuttle takes you to the beach. Own beach number 15 is far from the hotel, but it is free. Minus - the entrance to the sea. From this side, the sea is very worried and throws stones. Therefore, we preferred another one, we went to the other side of the cliff, there is also a free sandy beach (if you are OK to lie on the sand or have your own umbrella) or for 45 lire you can buy sun loungers with an umbrella and get high. There is complete calm, in the morning you can see how the ships go to sea.
3. The food is just super. Breakfast example: oatmeal (milk with seeds, I really liked it), boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, pancakes with topping, cheeses, sausages (I didn’t try it), sausages, salads, a lot of greens, watermelons, melons . . I don’t remember everything, it was enough for me and porridge : ) For lunch there is always soup, several options for the second, pasta, rice, french fries, vegetables or stew, turkey, veal, beef, chicken, fish, too, every day. Meatballs, meatballs, sauces, desserts. . . Most importantly, no one limits, as in Egypt, you take as much as you need. Dinner is about the same. The waiters are very nice and smart, offer drinks. Even in the dining room classical music plays, instrumental or jazz, much nicer than the neighboring hotel.
4. Animation is present, but small. A singer came twice with covers (since we were 9 days old, we caught him 2 times) and a woman with oriental dances. Any animation ends with a "lottery". They offer to win a trip to the leather and fur hangar. And if you don't want to, then watch the defile of down jackets by the pool : ) Fortunately, it does not last long, you can safely nibble on a watermelon or dessert, washed down with a cocktail.
5. The hotel area is reduced to a pool with sun loungers and a bar and the building itself. Since this is not a resort, but a city hotel, this is logical. The main plus is not a single child. Rest without splashes-squeals is just a buzz. Around cleanliness and only pleasant sounds.
6. There are no questions to the administration either, they speak English at the reception, the administrator Alina speaks Russian. There was a question about the tour, she helped us as best she could. No problem extended the room for 3 hours, as we had a late flight. Cleaning is unobtrusive, no one asked for tips (again, as in Egypt), everyone is polite and courteous.
7. Well, just life hacks about the city. As I said, the sea is more pleasant from the side of the embankment (where the yachts are). In Turkey, I strongly advise you to look into Migros, this is a local supermarket. You don't have to pay for many products. (Prices as in Belarus approximately). And you can also change money there: buy a change, give $ 20 and get change in local lira. It is more comfortable.
Cosmetics and household chemicals are sold in Eve and Gratis, the prices are excellent.
Full of defacto, waikiki, mido shops, even some kind of outlet at the end of the city. Can be reached by bus 2B
You will always wake up at 5 am. Because it is at this time that the first call to prayer sounds, and mosques are everywhere here, the main thing is not to get scared on the first day, it is very similar to an air raid alert)
And I would like to tell you about one travel agency. which offers excursions in Turkey. It is called Lena and Kemal. If you leave the hotel to the right, walk 100 meters and cross to the other side of the street, then you will find him among the shopkeepers (make no mistake, there is a huge sign We speak Russian). They sold us a tour to the canyon (where we really wanted to), and then they simply didn’t take it. Their phones did not answer, viber too. An hour later, we got through on WhatsApp to find out that they were very sorry, but the driver picked up other people along the way and now they can’t help us in any way, except to take us fishing in the afternoon. Naturally, we came to this miserable office, took the money and heard that "This is the norm, what are you so worried about, it's just a mistake. " It doesn’t fit in my head, what you need to think, so that there is such a mess. Everything would be fine, but it was the penultimate day before departure and there was nowhere to reschedule the trip. Therefore, I warn you and add photos of these irresponsible citizens
Be sure to ride the cable car, the views are amazing. It is best to go uphill around 6-7 pm, so you will get a super photo in daylight, and you will go back and see the city burning with lights, it is mega-stunning, the cabins are illuminated, the sunset...

The dirt is terrible, they never clean the tables, the tablecloths when they were still all stained and sticky, the dishes are not washed, but simply rinsed, so there are traces of lipstick and smudges. They began to walk with their dishes until they saw how the canteen employee poured slop from the tray into the tea tank.

The dirt is terrible, they never clean the tables, the tablecloths when they were still all stained and sticky, the dishes are not washed, but simply rinsed, so there are traces of lipstick and smudges. They began to walk with their dishes until they saw how the canteen employee poured slop from the tray into the tea tank. Then these employees played football with plastic cups in front of the visitors. (These plastic cups are not disposable, but they are rinsed and exposed to vacationers. food was always in short supply. After everything we saw, we no longer went to this canteen.

I will make a reservation right away: I am copying a review from Tophotels. The last review, fresh, as they say... There is no point in posting older ones. Chose the hotel for its location. Everything is within walking distance: the beach, shops, the market, a Denizbank ATM (Russian menu, our Sberbank is connected with it, if anyone is not in the know).

I will make a reservation right away: I am copying a review from Tophotels. The last review, fresh, as they say... There is no point in posting older ones.
Chose the hotel for its location. Everything is within walking distance: the beach, shops, the market, a Denizbank ATM (Russian menu, our Sberbank is connected with it, if anyone is not in the know)... With a leisurely walking step through the yards, you can quickly get to the very center and port. In general, I am in the center of Alanya for the second time. You can also read my review of this. Then the hotel was, as it were, ... debatable 2 * / 3 *... Here, if not for the food, it would be possible to put 4 *.
The room is spacious, the balcony is very good, I got the view of the fortress... gorgeous. Especially at night when it's lit up. Clean, nice. There were 2 Russian channels on the TV, but I turned it on once a week))) I didn’t meticulously follow the sterility of the tidy, but they went in every day, it was clear.
I lowered the rating for food (I didn’t come to eat, this is usually done at 5 *), so that people reading the review understand what to expect. I’ll say it straight: you won’t find any frills, you can find something to eat, but without fanaticism and enthusiasm. USUAL TURKISH "THREE" MENU: one soup, French fries, hot pink sausages, cheeses, rice, vegetables, unknown salads, apples, oranges, cutlets, then meat, then fish, then chicken, also a couple of types of sweets for dinner. . . Coffee, tea, beer, wine, vodka, gin. BEER DOES NOT PARTICULARLY INSERT, they tried it - it didn’t work out))) I took water a couple of times into a small bottle from the cooler - the bartender did not mind. At 22.00 a bar for a club, so after catching up - in any mini-market.
They only sat by the pool in the evenings with a beer, I never swam. Not interested. But those who wanted to plunge, of course, were. In general, the weather was pleasant (my third April in Turkey), knew where I was going and what to expect. The sea was stormy for a couple of days, but in the end I even swam and got burned. All sorts of garbage floated in the sea, thanks to everyone who introduces it there.
THE HOTEL STAFF DOES NOT SPEAK RUSSIAN. Keep in mind. A minimum of English wouldn't hurt. Day administrator Adam, night - Aziz. Bartender - Murat. According to the nationalities of vacationers: many Poles, Germans, English, Russians are less of course, Lithuanians are found. No politics, everyone is relaxing, everyone is drinking. Be friendly and people will respond in kind.
As for excursions, you can write to my mail any5462@yandex. ru, I’ll tell you where I was in more detail. I recommend the agency, I myself went with them 5 times already and sent other people with them with peace of mind. Prices do not break, the organization is 5, food on excursions has never caused me any negative. Yes, you can safely come to the office without my recommendation, across the road from Karat, slightly to the left of the large Mavi store (if facing it), called SENKUNKE tours. The owner is Pasha. We cross the road carefully, they won’t shoot down, but they’ll let the figs through)))
Well, that's all, I guess. It turned out chaotically, you can write to the mail for personal questions or here.

We were in the summer of 2007. We went ourselves without a tour operator - i. e. they took tickets, booked the rooms themselves... They messed up with the reservation and by the time of arrival all the rooms were occupied - the fault was ours, they did not confirm the reservation before departure. a messenger from the administrator from Karat and said that there was a free room and helped us move - the very help in this moment is worthy of the highest praise - the room is clean and without insects, the room is cleaned daily, towels are changed every third day.

(they forgot to leave a tip a couple of times) the hotel apparently was even before the overhaul and there were hints of cracks on the outer side of the walls. the pool is clean with filtration. The staff is friendly and helpful - at the request they woke up and called to inform that a taxi had arrived before leaving. The kitchen was really poor, so we had dinner in the city, and the cook was always hungover and angry. 4+, it is extremely not a pity for him even 700 USD
