    This is predominantly a ‘Dutch’ hotel with over 80% of the guests coming from that region it can be a bit overwhelming and at times we felt as though we were attending someone else’s party. Secondly the WiFi is poor and in 2022 this is a no no. I would expect to have a good connection in our room and by the pool but I had neither.

    The two main things that stood out about the property were: The warmth and friendliness of the staff /team The overall high level of cleanliness

    Pool should be open until at least 9pm especially when the air temperature leaves you no other choice than playing in water. We were suffocating!!!

    Very nice hotel, perfect location close to the river , the boats and the small ferry. Very friendly staff. We were just disapointed that they close the access to the pool at 7pm while the bar next to it remains open late with loud pop music...

    The safe didn’t work and a door handle was broken; but this didn’t affect our stay negatively.

    Cute room and good location. The pool is small but good.

    It’s Bed and Breakfast only, with a snack bar for lunches - but you need to go out for dinner, which is fine as there are lots of great options nearby.

    Great location on the river. Lovely garden to relax in, very peaceful. Lovely pool. Staff were fantastic; super helpful and accommodating and have lots of good recommendations. Very family friendly. Great breakfast everyday. We would definitely come back!

    We traveled as a couple and didn’t know that the hotel is more family-oriented. So just keep in mind that there are lots of kids. Also, the pool looks bigger on the pictures than in reality. Plus, a huge hotel sign is covering beautiful view of the mountain. All in all, it’s a good hotel for a few days of stay in Dalyan.

    The staff is very nice and helpful. The territory is beautiful, especially the garden side. Our room was very clean, air conditioned and comfortable. Cocktails were the strongest ones we’ve tried on this vacation and the most affordable too. Breakfast is simple but fresh and tasty, just a normal Turkish breakfast palette. Overall, it’s a good stay, not far from the city and you can find lots of beautiful restaurants on the way to the centre.

    A beautiful hotel with friendly, welcoming staff. We had a family room, which was spacious & clean. The standard of cleanliness throughout the hotel is excellent. Breakfast was extremely good with plenty of choice. The hotel gardens & pool area are very well maintained with comfortable seating & plenty of shade if required.

    False promises, rip off and disappointment

    Perhaps the worst breakfast in Dalyan. A shame and a rip off for the money we paid. The hotel area is not as pictured, perhaps they took pictures of heighbouring hotels. The two gentleman at the Reception are overly friendly, in fact incredibly nosey, kept asking ultra personal questions, dozen of questions a day, keeping an eye on us, you could almost feel with your back they are looking at you. Perhaps it is not a place for a traditional family and we were kind of rare birds? Only partially renovated Oriental style place, smells damp and dust. There are cameras in the hallways and corridors. There are strict rules that do not allow you to "quietly enjoy the property": your food is not allowed in the premises, even dairy and fruits for a young child is frowned upon, you are not allowed to have a breakfast at the table near the pool. No kettle in the premises. No safe either. Quite noisy: the ferry next to the hotel runs very late and very early hours through the night, the music at the bar/pool is very loud and non stop, ranging from forties to eighties style, it's random and unnecessary given no guests this spring. The fisherman restaurant around the corner may offer a fresh fish, but they cannot cook it, starters are equally bad. It's another rip off - you pay London prices, but cannot swallow tasteless and greasy meals served to a good music. Dined at Sahil and Careta Careta and Barbeque Garden and Serenity restaurants - waste of money again, don't go there! It's like teenager buying meat making Barbeque for the first time... There are nice hotels around, try these. There must be good dining spots - just avoid those we went to

    The staff was very nice and helpful. They helped us with booking the shuttle boat to the beach and the boat collected us from the hotel. Outdoor area and pool were very enjoyable. Room was quiet and clean.
