Awful hotel and facilities, definitely not a 4 star. They had the audacity to put us in a room that was dark, dirty and smelled of sewage, the shower room floorwas saturated with water from the toilet leak. Alternative rooms were just as bad so we moved to another hotel which was truly a 4 star. Luckily we were able to get a refund when we returned to the UK. This isn't a hotel I would recommend, don't waste your money here.

Just back from a weeks stay here and here is out take on pros and cons Pros Good sized Rooms Really clean Lovely staff Good location and not far from the beach Cons Our room was overlooking the main road and it was really noisy Pool is in the shade for most of the day Food - we really struggled, hotel caters for other nationalities, not British Limited choice of drinks

Stayed for a week. The hotel is not great and all inclusive is misleading. You are charged extra for beach towels, juice, the equipment for table tennis or pool and even an iron wasn’t available ( they will charge €1.50 to iron a shirt). The hotel was run down with thread borne carpets. The beds were very uncomfortable and they didn’t provide sheets. The food was awful and the contents in the buffet weren’t labelled so you couldn’t discern what it was. The beach is a fifteen minute walk and the hotel shuttle only runs once in the morning and again in the afternoon. The staff were lovely especially the Beach Bar manager but aside from that I would not recommend this place

Just spent 10 nights at this hotel with my partner,, where do a start the hotel only caters for russians and germans,, staff dont speak much english,, all inclusive is great if you knew what you were eating or if you like chicken every night,, the only restaurant was the one right next to the hotel may i add the hotel owned it,, the room we were in was 1309 which was another part of the hotel,, the pool area is good if you get up at 5.30 am to get a sunbed as there is only one side of the pool that gets the sun

This is a hotel for very rude Germans, English are not welcome here,we had 10 days and only 3 people said morning or Morgan, the food was the same every night chicken chips and German food ,you go to reception and all they ask is English then pretend they don't understand you,We are in our late 60s and was put in a room as far as it can go and the last room1409 watch the dodgy shower door,on arrival I asked for a room with a pool view ,reception said yes, this was not true ,when I complained I was told to see the manager, which I never did as it falls on deaf ears,most of the staff are rude,but there is a few polite ones ,especially wholan who runs the beach bar and the food ,beer is a lot better. There are 3 clocks behind reception German, Turkey and Russian that is a statement in its self,it will cost you a small fortune in tips and nothing in return, all inclusive and we had to eat out ,the restaurant next to the hotel is part of the hotel and you pay food there is very good and reasonable price,there is NO nightclub and most nights the music stops at 10,bar shuts at 11 with out warning. All inclusive you pay for cocktails, ice-cream even to weigh your case cost a euro,very limited drinks.YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Just returned from a week staying at the Merve Sun Hotel and Spa. After a long day travelling we finally arrived just after 11pm feeling knackered and slightly peckish after checking in we were taken to the restaurant (which was closed) and given a plate of mixed mezzo and fresh bread which was delicious. When booking the hotel I mistakenly booked the wrong room but this was fixed out the following morning thanks to Hassan the hotel manager, Mehmet on reception and Okan the bellboy. After reading some of the reviews I was a bit skeptical about staying at the Merve Sun Hotel however I must say there was no need to worry. The hotel was clean and well maintained, the staff very friendly and helpful, the food was good quality, plentiful and was served hot unlike most of the hotels in Turkey I've stayed in the past. The maim clientele were German, but this was not a problem we were always acknowledged and included in all aspects. My only slight gripe was the mattress which was a bit to thin for me.

We have been to Turkey 11 times and had the most wonderful time in all the hotels but not this one ,when we were there we complained about the food as they were catering for the German people and Turkish, the food was the same every two days if you like chicken you will be flying by the time you come home , this hotel is not suitable for anyone disabled as we found out we complained to the manager who just fobbed us off ,this hotel is more like a 2 star certainly not a 4 star be aware when booking and don't bother complaining to love holidays as they fobbed us off aswell , By the way we love Turkey and has not put us off but be careful what your booking 😉 😀 😜

-This hotel is perfect if you’re a German pensioner, staff speak very little English but have PhDs in German. -The “All Inclusive” food is suited for Germans and specifically German pensioners, if you’re British, you will suffer here, just download Getir and order BK or Maccies from the city, delivery is insanely cheap. -You won’t be able to wash or Iron any of your clothes without paying a few euros per each clothing item. -No kettles in the hotel room. -The pool bar gives free drinks but the ice cream vendor next to it charges insane prices so be careful. Hotel is clean, the location is great and the staff are friendly.

My family have just returned from a beautiful holiday in this hotel and would have no hesitation in recommending it. The food was fantastic, lots of choice for everyone and plenty of everything. The entertainment was good every night without being rowdy until late, lovely children's entertainers etc. Withing easy reach of the beautiful beach (10-15 mins walk). Rooms were spotless and maid service every day. Spa lovely! I would like to mention on our return flight the Turkish Airport were charging EVERYONE 10 Euros for not booking in online beforehand. Please make sure that you take this amount per person with you on your flight home. Treat yourself to a very reasonable holiday in this gorgeous hotel, you won't be disappointed!
