Grand Zaman Hotel - Alanya, Turkey     

This was an average hotel in a dissapointing location located painfully far away from the airport. We went as a couple and booked a double room, as per standard we found the room consisted of two single beds. Not a problem, however, the beds would not stay together without parting. The hotel staff were dismissive when we reported our issue and we ended up having to upgrade to a double bed and having to pay alot more money. The room was average with a noisy air conditioner and the bed uncomfortable. The majority of the residents in the hotel consisted of German people, not an issue unless you want to meet people! If you are travelling to this location you need a decent hotel, the area consists of numerous shops and restaurants serving the same food and the locals on the whole were rude and pushy trying to force their product on you. On the plus side, the hotel was close to a fantastic beach and the food was suprisingly nice, local dishes. Room views? depends what side you stay on, we faced some kind of rubbish disposal machine.

my boyfriend and I decided to go on a vacation to Alanya. our main demand was, that hotel is near the center, so we could go there by foot. we arrived to the hotel in the middle of the night. althought the kitchen was closed, staff was kind and offered us meal. the hotel is beautiful, rooms are cleaned, they cook great food. they have very clean beach, staff on the beach is also great, and the best thing here is, that beach is just acrrosed the road. near the hotel is also a pool. small, but nice. if you want to have nice hotel, near the centre and beach, with kind staff and good food, then grand zaman is a hotel for you
