Who does the author recommend the hotel to?: For recreation with friends, for young people
Rested in "Sonas Alpina" from 20 to 30 September 2008. Impressions in general are pleasant. Judging by other reviews, anything can happen in this hotel, but personally everything was in order for us. It seems that for those who are dissatisfied, everything bad that could happen, EVERYTHING and SIMULTANEOUSLY happened.
They settled us in a cool room in the main building... of course, with a surcharge, this has long been the norm, so there is nothing to be indignant at. The room itself is spacious, clean, cleaned daily, bed linen and towels changed every three days, as it should be for a four. In general, if you are not a pig, then the cleanliness will be perfect. If something does not work, you need to calmly explain the essence of the matter at the reception, and on the same day everything will be done. At least that's how it was for us. Salt water is, of course, a minus. In my opinion the only serious minus of this hotel.
Of course, you need to start your vacation with a Turkish bath. Everything is simple here. Do not listen to hotel guides (they are a separate conversation, to be honest, I don’t want to beat my fingers to describe these characters, in all reviews about them there is an absolute truth), you don’t have to go anywhere, the hammam hotel is a fairy tale! For only $25 (initial price: ) you will spend 2-3 hours in Paradise. They have great tea by the way. I advise you to order a massage course: both benefits and a lot of pleasure. Masseurs are masters of their craft.

Service at the level, no one has ever been rude. In the restaurant, the waiters are cool, smart guys, we especially liked Yasen - young people, always smiling, joking, such a service pleases.
The food is really awesome. There have always been a variety of meat dishes, of course there was also soy, but no one forces you to eat it, the choice is already huge. Somehow they calculated for the sake of interest: there were 44 types of salads. In general, the chef is a big human RESPECT ! ! With such nutrition, you just need to actively relax if you want to keep your figure. By the way, there are no problems with this.
The animation team is great!! ! Margo (hello to you separately, if you suddenly read it) is the mistress of flat tummies and slender legs : ) After her water aerobics and step aerobics, there will be no trace of extra pounds. So who follows the figure - welcome to the classes! Respect to Murat and Soner, cool guys, they won’t let you get bored, but they won’t impose themselves if you don’t want to lift your butt from a sun lounger. They also pay a lot of attention to children, every day I watched how they squeeze the kids, and they squeal with delight. Children especially adore Khaakan (stage name "child of Chernobyl"), probably because of the fun hairstyle. The only thing that let us down was the evening show. Comedies are not funny, but competitions with the participation of the audience are more fun. And of course, the club dance is really a HIT, it’s really cool to dance with the whole hotel. I saw dances of other hotels - sucks, the best in Alpina!!
Every night there are discotheques, cool, the only bad thing is that you can smoke there. It’s bad, because the room is closed, and it’s so stuffy, but everyone starts smoking, and after an hour there’s nothing to breathe AT ALL.
In short, the level of the hotel corresponds to its value. With a positive outlook on things, you can coolly relax here. And the very fastidious and eternally dissatisfied have a happy journey to the five-stars, although even there such people are unlikely to be satisfied.
