We rested at the CONCORDIA CELES HOTEL in mid-October 2011. Of course, it is difficult to call it a vacation.
So, for the hotel. I won’t write the details of the meeting at the hotel, about the delivery of luggage, the elevator and who was the name of the Reseption employees, it was not at all up to it, as soon as we found ourselves in the building of this “miracle 5-star hotel” (that’s how it sells our tour operator) When we entered the room, we saw old shabby furniture, non-working plumbing in the bathroom, in the closet 1.5 hangers hanging on a hook. But we were glad that the beds seemed to be standing and not falling, there were light bulbs in the lamps and the TV still somehow worked tolerably))). Bed linen in all rooms is dirty, unwashed, it was unpleasant to look at, let alone sleep. We learned from the receptionist that there is no CLEAN linen in this hotel at all! In all rooms it is with some kind of stains and stains, and many people, getting used to it, sleep peacefully.
Later, they found normal linen for us (apparently they were already looking not only in their rooms, but also in the rooms of another hotel). We were already happy, at least something already. By the way, a funny thing…. in this hotel, in the all-inclusive concept (this piece of paper will be given to you upon check-in), there is a fad “Attention! For damaged hotel property, an additional fee will be charged (unwashed linen, towels, etc. ). ” Does the hotel really earn extra money from tourists? It is not clear why write this at all, if the linen is never washed normally anyway ....Personally, this did not affect us in any way, but it is possible that someone will have problems with this in the season. Also, in Concordia, thefts are not uncommon, people's phones and video cameras disappear, which is also very unpleasant.
LOCATION AND TERRITORY of the hotel are good.
"CONCORDIA CELES HOTEL" is located in Okurcalar, which is the first village in Alanya, so the road from the airport is not particularly tiring. But there is nowhere to go especially, on the right and on the left there are hotels that are really 5-star hotels, and not fictional ones, like Concordia, which I think that 2-stars will be too much.
The territory inside the hotel is compact, everything is nearby. A big plus is that the hotel is located on the seashore, no need to cross the road, as is usually the case in other regions of Alanya. This is probably where the positives end. There are a lot of people on the beach, everyone is constantly eating and drinking something, a lot of garbage. Perhaps this is due to the fact that Russian tourists are so used to relaxing everywhere, or perhaps because the beach is rarely cleaned. In general, as for the contingent of the hotel, these are 99% Russian citizens; 1% of some foreign people accidentally got into the Concordia, also accidentally and successfully escaped from here ....we don't count it.
Russian swearing is heard everywhere, cries of “Tagil Rules! ”, many of our compatriots drink endlessly and drink everything they have ...even if it’s not yet 10 am and the bar is closed, they still stand and wait for that very magical time to come and then it will be possible to “swell up” from the heart! I have never seen so many people in such a strong alcoholic state in any hotel in Turkey, really! Some drink from morning to evening. Perhaps this is their usual lifestyle, or perhaps they feel so bad in this hotel and it’s hard that there are no more joys but to drink, drink and drink. I'm not saying this about absolutely everyone, there are exceptions, but they are few. In general, the hotel mostly rest or families with children or pensioners. There are young people, but they are very few.
NUTRITION. It's just awful, you won't see it or try it anywhere else!
A meager selection of dishes, consisting of a large number of inedible salads, seasoned with incomprehensible sauces, cabbage, greens. Also in the assortment is often far from the first freshness unwashed vegetables, rotten pasta, potatoes in some kind of poppy and sesame seeds, chicken, there was sometimes (on special, "holiday" days) meat. With food in "Concordia" you have to be very careful, one not very careful eating of certain products leads to acute food poisoning. With many tourists with whom we communicated during our stay at the hotel, they said that they were poisoned ....We practically could not eat anything, so we remained alive and healthy. At the entrance to the hotel in the evenings very often there was an ambulance, people called, you had to somehow save yourself in a 5-star hotel ..... I'm sorry for the little kids. I have no idea what their parents fed them.
Not only is there practically nothing in the hotel, but there is also a big risk of getting poisoned or infected with something, it's a nightmare.
In the dining room of the hotel (it’s hard to call this place where people eat a restaurant), it’s always dirty, the waiters do not have time to clean the tables, the tablecloths are stained with everything possible and they are changed extremely rarely. There are not enough cups for tea and coffee, there is no need to talk about teaspoons at all, they are completely absent in a 5 star hotel. Instead, they are given plastic sticks, this is normal here. The dishes in the hotel at any place of eating are also dirty, washed very poorly or not washed at all. Disposable plastic cups are also reusable. There is a persistent putrefactive smell in all areas of the hotel, especially in the lobby bar area.
The animation team consisted of three people.
I don’t particularly remember who’s name by name, but when they told me that the person conducting the evening “extras” is the “animation chief” (too loud name), I was shocked ....He does not know how to behave, often being rude to hotel guests. By the way, in some of the photos attached to the laudatory and excellent reviews of this wonderful hotel, he apparently wrote the review himself and at the same time took pictures of himself. In the evenings, the animators held a mini-disco for children and in the evening for adults, some activities called animation. It was always difficult for them to gather people, often they were just too lazy to do something, people were reluctant to come to the programs, usually everyone either drank in the hotel bar or walked somewhere ....and when decently drunk, they went to sing songs from the heart or participate in competitions. Several times during our stay at the hotel, the animation team invited everyone to go to "one of the best discos in Alanya. "
And also several times these “trips” were postponed”…. I remember only once gathered a few tourists and went to the disco. But after talking with the guys the next day, they were not enthusiastic about this disco tour. During the day, the music is also peculiar, it turns on only according to the taste of the animator. These are all the hits of Elena Vaenga, Yura Shatunov, "Hands Up", etc.
About other hotel employees, including bartenders and waiters, I cannot say that they are all boors and rude. There were sometimes individuals who behaved normally and adequately. About the owner of "Concordia" is another story. He stays at the hotel all day. Look, observe what is happening ....During the day, he looks at single girls and women who have come to rest at the hotel, tries to get acquainted. If he fails, then in the evening he moves to a disco at the hotel and tries to get to know each other there again. This is his daily pastime at the hotel.
This citizen also has lunch and dinner at the hotel, in the same catering place, but they cook for him separately (this is understandable, why would he poison himself? ). He speaks Turkish and Russian, knows some phrases in English. But, when this or that problem arises and one of the guests comes up to him to express his claims to the hotel…. he immediately ceases to understand anything. Only Turkish and all. In short, impudent, cunning and slippery. Looking at it, you understand why such a hotel ...and why everything is so bad. Savings in the hotel on everything and everyone!
I don’t know if any of the real tourists will have time to read my review (or it will be eclipsed by a bunch of false and implausible reviews) and understand that it is STRICTLY IMPOSSIBLE TO GO here, but still I hope so. Everything is clear with the hotel, I don’t think it will have a bright future, but all because it is so miserable that you can’t tell everything about it, you have to see it!
I am sure that not only I am of this opinion, but many for whom the trip to Turkey was not the first and who have something to compare with. I do not think that in the next summer season something will change. Maybe the hotel will once again change its name and travel agencies will sell it under a completely different name. This is most likely.
That's like my whole story. I wish you all a wonderful and unforgettable holiday and good mood! Take care of yourself! ! ! !
