Blue Marina Hotel & Spa

I am someone who pays attention to reviews when choosing a hotel. I chose this hotel by observing. As far as I have observed, this hotel is in perfect harmony with everything in terms of price, location, cleanliness and staff. Everyone has small shortcomings and mistakes. We shouldn't make a big deal about this issue. Thanks to the staff, they can make up for the shortcomings, and I think this is the best thing. A great holiday. I had a great experience. I definitely recommend it to everyone. I would like to thank Sena, Ahmet, Anıl and Hüseyin for their interest. They were really helpful and friendly.

Staff was super friendly and helpfull. They lent us a knive for fruits, extension cable/splitter since there was only 1 socket in the room and scale to check luggage weight. And they fixed the shower fast when there was only cold water. Location was perfect. Breakfast was okay, bread, cheeses, french fries, boiled eggs etc. Our bed was comfortable and there was free water in the minifridge. We got roomcleaning quickly everytime we request it.

The hotel is located on a side street, off the main road, so it is a quieter than the others. For the price we paid, the bedroom is what you would expect from a UK Premier Inn, no frills and quite standard: - Double Bed - Wall mounted TV - Bedside table and small desk - Wardrobe - Openable windows with blackout curtains - Minibar with free water - Aircon We were content with this as it was good value for money. The aircon remote was missing but we asked the staff about this and they replaced it for us. The bathroom is also standard layout, but looks a lot nicer, with Turkish style tiles and flooring. Sometimes, there was a slight issue with the hot water, but we put up with this as Antalya is VERY hot, and we were happy to take cold showers. Breakfast was free and more of the continental variety. They had olives, cheeses, salami, salads, boiled eggs, and breads. For drinks, they served turkish tea and cherry juice. We were quite happy with this selection, considering we did not pay extra for this. The staff were very attentive and helpful, especially Cemil and Aytac, they both went above expectations and made our stay very pleasant. We were usually offered complementary Turkish/Ceylon tea every time we came back to the hotel, which was a lovely gesture and very enjoyable. Our requests were always dealt with promptly and professionally, and gave us plenty of useful advice and tips about Antalya. This definitely made up for the minor shortcomings of the hotel. They also had a very friendly cat that roamed the streets and lobby from time to time.

The best thing about the hotel is its location - close to the old harbour and old town, lots of eating and shopping options around. The bed was really comfortable, the mattress was definitely new; AC working properly, fast internet. Also, the staff working at the reception desk were always very polite and ready to help with anything. I think it is reasonably priced for the facilities and services provided.

It's conveniently situated near everything. The receptionists, particularly Jemmy, are exceptionally friendly, kind, and ever-ready to assist. The cleaning staff also excel at their tasks. The water provided in the rooms, as well as the coffee and tea on the ground floor, are quite nice. While the breakfast is simple, it offers all the essentials, and we're satisfied with it. Considering the price, it's remarkably affordable.
