Area Hotel

I wasn’t sure what to expect on arrival. Checking in was fine, first impressions of my room, i was mortified. Dark room, very VERY dated, dirty, all the furniture was scuffed and naff- my balcony doors didn’t lock, the view from my balcony overlooked flats on a destitute road. Towels were yellow with stains, the owner just needs to bulk buy new ones and bin the tatty towels. The hotel on first impressions made me feel uncomfortable and unsafe. However we did arrive during the night and in the morning when looking around and locating the pool, it seemed more pleasant, the pool area is lovely and the highlight of this hotel, its clean, nice shape to the pool, plenty of sun-beds during our stay with power-soles. The hotel has an amazing location from the pool, its located on the beach front. Best of both literally right there. The hotel restaurant, with the sea view is lovely with delicious food. The hotel looks good from the pool side however its just in need of complete renovation inside the hotel, its such a shame it really would be an amazing hotel or a boutique. This hotel is perfect as a budget friendly hotel however i do expect a general level of hygiene throughout and a basic clean decor and furniture. However if you are literally using the room as a base and you don’t mind a bit of the above, this hotel does serve its purpose. Fethye- beautiful sunsets, very very friendly, great bars- lively but not cubby. Bars and music with everything to choose from on where to eat- delicious food too. Beach was full with fag butts. Loads of stray dogs, packs of them 24/7 they bark and dight with eachother very intimidating.

Lovely, Turkish-family owned simple “pension” style hotel, very well positioned just back from the seafront. We just returned yesterday from a week long stay there and found it very comfortable. It is more Turkish style than perhaps other hotels (darker inside, to keep cooler in the very hot summer months) with Turkish silks on the wall and the wrought ironwork you see frequently on more traditional buildings. English is spoken but is limited - however, you can still discern the genuine warmth towards guests even if there’s a language barrier! We were given a room overlooking both the pool and the sea, which had a beautiful view. There is a little balcony, more for standing on to look over said view as it’s quite small. Little wires were strung tightly across for hanging towels and beachwear, with clothes pegs provided. The twins beds put together were EXTREMELY comfortable - my husband is very fussy and hates a hard bed but these mattresses were supportive and comfy without being hard. They provide a cotton blanket for each bed as a cover. We were a bit perplexed at first - but after trying them, I’m definitely ordering some to use at home during hot months; they were so comfortable to use as a coverlet. Being October, we didn’t use the a/c (which is included in the room rate price) until we were packing on the morning we left and it worked very well, and quickly. The rooms are on the small side but enough. Plenty of wardrobe space and drawer space, so we totally unpacked to give us more room. The room was very clean and towels were changed everyday. The bathroom was adequate; the shower leaked a bit, but the shower itself was good and strong. There is a surprisingly good hairdryer supplied. The pool was very nice; large and had flotation things/lilos etc for guest use plus a small baby pool. Walking past and through the little garden, you are at the beach in two minutes! There is an Italian restaurant right by and an ice-cream and fresh fruit juice vendor the other side on the promenade as you walk out. The only negatives were that they have keycards for the room key, which necessitates a heavy reader box on the door. This means the doors have a tendency to “slam” shut and the noise can be loud. During the height of the season, when the hotel’s full, you could be potentially disturbed by guests constantly slamming doors (a problem you also always get in large corporate hotels). We do have to mention the breakfast, which could be improved really. Eggs (pre boiled) are served and there is often a variety of bread, with a toaster. Some cheese sometimes available, some fresh yoghurt (which was very nice), but that’s about it. Fresh fruit juice would’ve been nice, considering there are so many oranges and pomegranates about and/or some fruit. Some local honey and jams would’ve also been nice to have. There is a coffee machine which serves very hot coffee, which was nice. Breakfast stops abruptly at just before 10am, but a

My wife and I have just spent 2 lovely weeks in the Area hotel. It is right on the promenade and cafes. All the staff were helpful from start to finish. And from the bar you can watch the sun setting, which is beautiful. To anyone who knows Fethiye, it is 5 minutes from the bridge. The balconies on the side are only big enough for 1 chair. But you do not come on holiday to sit on the balcony. There is a lift which goes to all the floors. Turkey is Turkey 🇹🇷.

This hotel was not fit for purpose our family room turned out to be a duplex room which was to dangerous for our 6 year old grandson. Exposed wiring dangerous stairs dingy. Was offered a smaller room but still not fit for a family. Walk out never stayed. Returned next day to return key as was told the regular tourists had the better rooms. Not like any of the pictures Avoid 😕

The owner and his wife are rude and ignorant. The owners wife slapped my disabled mum in the face and proceeded to claim she wasn’t disabled. The owner himself also punched my cousin (female) in the face. They also told us they “don’t want guests like us”. Absolutely terrifying- do not bring your family here!!

Bonjour je tiens à dire que ce n’est pas un hôtel à la bourgeoise mais vu le prix que j’ai payé je le trouve plus que parfait et sans oublier Ramadan le réceptionniste qui est juste formidable Et je reviendrai sans hésiter à cette hôtel emplacement top du top à la plage de Cali

This hotel is all about value for money. The location is great, right on the promenade. The rooms have been modernised but are still pretty basic. The air conditioning is modern and works well (no charge for using). You can rent a safe for just 10€ a week- these are down by reception in a secure room and did feel more secure than the ones normally found in hotel rooms. The pool is lovely and has steps going in so great for anyone who is unable to use a pool ladder. Breakfast is your basic Turkish breakfast, more fruit would make it better but ok overall. We would definitely stay again.
