Good day! I rested at the Ares Hotel 4 from May 9 to May 15.2007, I myself am from Moscow, very often I go on promotional tours for tour managers (I myself am employed, but I don’t work : ) to Turkey and not only, so I have with what to compare and evaluate, I reviewed a bunch of Turkish hotels, respectively, and also lived in many in different cities, there are a lot of ultra all-inclusive 5 stars.

So, in order: about the price: I got a ticket after the traditional reduction immediately after the May holidays 7 days 6 nights, a single (room for one) cost $ 144, respectively, for ordinary tourists with a commission of $ 164, add another $ 20 upon arrival, but I don’t paid because he himself returned from the advertiser not for a long time, the visa is valid for 60 days, the tour operator Anex tour (meets 700 people a day), well, everyone knows that he is not very good, sometimes he indulges in checking into other hotels, usually worse, referring to lack of places, but I was not afraid because

I went for a penny, and after looking at the reviews, I thought: what could be worse? : )

Upon arrival: we drove for a long time about 3 hours (until everyone was scattered around the hotels), we were still looking for our hotel! it was the last one, thank God two pretty girls Ira and Vika also went to Ares : ) Arriving and seeing the hotel, I was not particularly disappointed, because I came for cheap, and there were few tourists with a maximum of 20 people, and this is best for better service, who knows he will understand!
The building is beautiful glass 7 floors, on the ground floor there are leather armchairs and a huge TV with Russian channels, Wi-Fi at the reception and nearby for free (Internet without wires, but it’s only for someone who has their own laptop with wi-fi support, in the rooms like everywhere else for a fee) and even if you calculate how much it will cost to stay if you pay at the reception, it’s somewhere at the rate of $ 120 per day for two (a single is more expensive) add plane tickets from Moscow on a charter of 220 bucks or a little more per person, then I’m in a good mood rose. They spoil the view a bit of construction, but in principle they are quiet because the houses have already been built, there is no greenery, only flowers curl at the entrance, the hotel is urban!!!

The hotel area is not large, but in principle there is everything you need, bars, there are 4 of them (workers), the pool is normal (aqua aerobics in the morning, water polo in the afternoon if there are tourists), there is an underground toilet nearby, a stage for animation, though not very convenient because

chairs and tables are on the sides around the pool, but I already find fault, there is also a bar on the street, those who say that this is the 2nd line are wrong: 150 meters is normal (compare the large hotel in Belek and how long it takes to go to the beach ?? ), across the road there are all the hotels in the vicinity! , behind the road there is a place only for sun loungers and umbrellas, it takes 3 minutes to go to the beach, by the way, on the road on the street (in the city when you go to the beach) there are fountains, only now they made it a new street: it looks beautiful although you need to plant greens from the side, an underpass completed but you can go through, but I walked on top so faster, yes, concrete mixers drive, but they don’t really interfere because the sea is louder, by the way, not a big hotel Sugar standing in front just closes from the same road noise.
Food: again, the restaurant is not big, but the food is basically nothing, and there was fish and meat and chicken, but the truth is not always together, only oranges and apples from fruits, sometimes there were plum hybrids, sweets were also nothing, there is no sushi there, I say right away and there will never be a voucher for the price, although the rolls are not expensive at cost ...from the minuses: the opening hours are short in the restaurant (although in the heat there is not much desire only EFES beer and, by the way, less diluted than in other hotels), between lunch and in the evening they lay out cookies and muffins next to the TV, there are also juice machines (concentrates) and a coffee machine (cappuccino and more) which is good, it’s bad that there is no second dinner and drinks until 2.00, but if you need you can juice concentrate, coffee, wine and pour the beer yourself, but only so that none of the staff sees they cover the apparatus with rags : )) but you can get drunk up to 2.
00: ), or take more drinks for the evening, so we did it: ) In the evening there is a disco in the basement, by the way, they pour it there until 24 (but I can’t vouch) one day a week Turkish songs are sung live by a pretty Turkish girl from a neighboring club where I visited: it's right next to it: a club restaurant, a guy plays the guitar and a girl sings, it's very nice to sit and drink beer there, they sing until 2 am every day.

There is also animation before the start of the disco, first for children, then as standard dance competitions, one day there was yoga jumping on broken glass, lying on sharp glass and holding me and another girl, the fire was still fanned and swallowed well done, it was interesting. There is also a sauna and a Turkish bath and a jacuzzi and a gym, it's all free! it is located at the bottom in the same place as the disco, everything is decent, the rooms are also normal, standard 4 stars pull!

(I repeat, there is something to compare with, sometimes it’s closer and worse in fives), there are tiles on the floor, a bathroom, 3 Russian channels, a hairdryer, a mini-bar in the room, a paid safe too, they clean decently even without a tip, by the way, sun loungers, umbrellas and mattresses on the beach were free! (each year may be different) but the beach bar is paid, the entrance to the sea is normal! even slabs that lie at the bottom there are much better than uneven average stones, and for frequent cutting as in other places, such as in some hotels in Kemer! , billiards 3 bucks, table tennis for free.

About vacationers: mostly people from Ukraine and Belarus, it’s very interesting to talk about politics : ) yes, and just got good people it was fun, there are Russians too, there were people of course who didn’t like the hotel, well, what did they want for 3 kopecks? ?
they said that we went there everything was better, though then it turned out that they paid 3 or 4 times more expensive (I don’t like show-offers : ) The conclusion is this: I liked everything for this money, although there are not big minuses, and I immediately made friends with the owner of the hotel (the director is different there), the owner's name is Muslim, he has not been married for 27 years : ) a former professional footballer, by the way, speaks decent Russian, a very intelligent guy, not like all Turks who need only one thing, we went to Alania with him for disco there he has all his friends, the owners and VIP service, of course everything was free for me : )), respectively, in the hotel we hung out with him perfectly, smoked hookah, drank, hung out with the girls and it was just nice when all the staff fussed around you! He even offered me to stay for free for another 2 weeks, but unfortunately there were no plane tickets, or they were very expensive. So I advise beautiful girls to go to Ares!!!
there you will have everything for free and paid drinks and hookah, the best discos in Alanya with VIP service are provided to you, and I repeat, no one will pester you for this.


In general, the hotel for the money that you are going to go is completely normal 3+ for a city hotel, you can safely give, find a company, the sea is the sun, drink, have fun, love and you will be happy !! ! and the reviews are all garbage, yes, there are better hotels, but they are more expensive! , they can be cheaper, but not in season or on a last minute, but you have to look for it, but subtract 220 bucks per person for a plane ticket, calculate how much a closet without food in Crimea will cost plus train tickets and immediately everything will be on their places. I say hello to everyone who remembers Mansur (by the way, the second name of Muslim is also Mansur! Just in case, I’ll leave the soap mansi1984@mail.
ru write I will be glad with whom I did not have time to exchange data and not only (I will tell you about the hotel in detail) You can look at photos from my vacation and photos of the hotel here: Irishka and Vika separate hello! !
