I'll start with the main one.
Anex tour! If you have a choice, do not use the services of this operator, you will regret it from the first minutes (starting from the delay in departure, ending with a quick push you out of the hotel, despite the late departure and relative proximity to the airport).
Check-in - as long as you agree with everything - everyone speaks Russian, as soon as you make claims about the view from the room - everything is only understandable to them in English. For many, this is not a problem, but some experienced discomfort (a couple from Moscow could not explain that they don't want to live with a view of the road). By the way, put $20 per room in the Tip box anyway - such a "common fund".

The territory is huge, but dirty. In the morning you will see the gastronomic addictions of night revelers. Empty glasses and plates from the canteen will be scattered everywhere. quickly find. There is enough space on the beach for everyone at any time of the day, which cannot be said about the pools. At 7 in the morning, sunbeds were already occupied there, mainly, of course, vacationers with children.
There is enough food: meat, vegetables, fruits, and everything they cook there. Only, which is typical for Turkey, there is a lot of lamb. But in general, the food is tasty, digestible. I recommend using a la carte restaurants. For lunch, too you don’t have to go to the canteen, you can have a bite to eat in a Turkish restaurant and a snack bar on the beach. You can go to the Kremlin, eat there (no different). In the main restaurant (canteen) for dinner, there were problems with clean tables. quickly decide. But not always they will serve glasses for wine, they may forget to bring appliances, being distracted by others who are hungry for the day.
The rooms were cleaned well, there was nothing to worry about. I don’t know how it was in other rooms, we had a good repair in No. 4446, everything worked properly.
The spa is excellent. But compared to other hotels in Turkey, it’s a little expensive. But you can safely bargain, drop $ 20-25 on a classic massage, it’s elementary. otherwise they will forget and not do it.
What there is not a single claim is to the sea and the sun! They are always affectionate, beautiful and kind!
Everyone who chose Topkapi - have a good rest. Despite some negatives, it's great here!
