My husband and I stayed here in July 2018. Our budget was a little limited, so we chose a hotel according to our wallet, and we were not mistaken. Guys, I’ll say right away: those who expect a service comparable to 5 * ultra from a budget hotel are definitely not here for you. I have been to many hotels, both budget and "luxury", so there is something to compare with both in terms of tour prices and the level of service. Yes, there is no caviar for breakfast and salmon steaks for dinner. But! Let's go in order.
The hotel itself is small, consists of 2 buildings, the second, in fact, is a separate hotel, the Mirai Hotel. It was in Mirai that we were settled, and 2 hours ahead of schedule (thanks to the administrator Tatyana). The room is small (in Diana herself, the rooms are a little bigger), but clean, with new furniture, a bed with an orthopedic mattress and white linens. All appliances worked, hot water was constantly. Towels were changed twice, garbage was taken out on time. The windows of the room did not look out onto the street, but to the pool, which was very pleasing, I am a supporter of silence. I was also pleased with the fact that in Icmeler all noisy establishments and discos work strictly until midnight.
The food corresponded to the declared - budget, but a lot. Several types of cheese, olives, eggs, chicken, nuggets, vegetables, salads, fruits for dinner, baked biscuits a couple of times, delicious local bread, there was no fish, but the hotel guests did not go hungry. We must pay tribute to the cooks - with a rather meager budget, the food was relatively good. In the Al bar, all drinks are locally produced, there was a lot of beer, despite the restriction - 2 glasses in hand. Separately, I want to say about the staff. These are mostly local youth, many of them do not speak Russian, but they are polite, attentive and smart.
Diana is a budget hotel, not 5 *, and any hotel has its drawbacks, but Diana's small disadvantages are more than offset by its location - 5 minutes from the sea! Not every hotel can boast of such a location, at least in Icmeler (food for thought)
We went to the municipal beach. The cleanest sea, picturesque islands in the bay, mountains, pine trees, intoxicating air - for the sake of this beauty it is worth coming here. Opposite the hotel there is an excellent local tour desk "At Boris". Its owner Bayram (he is Boris) speaks excellent Russian, you can negotiate a discount, and the prices are 2 times cheaper than those of hotel guides.
I have pleasant memories of "Diana", I can safely recommend this hotel for a budget holiday. Once again, a huge THANK YOU to the hotel staff, its owners, administrator Tanya and everyone who made our holiday in Icmeler truly unforgettable!
