Average hotel We flew from Kharkov with the tour operator JoinUp - landing was postponed 4 times, delayed for 4 hours. We got to the hotel by 9 o'clock in the morning very, very tired with a child of 8 years old and retired parents. We were escorted to breakfast, and after breakfast we were told that check-in was from 12 to 14 hours. . They offered money - the receptionist refused explaining this by the lack of clean rooms. We waited a couple of hours, asked, begged to settle at least in a dirty room, quarreled, they took pity on us and settled in a 5-star hotel, which is located across the street. Later we realized that all people pass the same way as we do - you arrive at least at 7 in the morning - you wait until 12 or 14 hours. In the central hall, departing or visiting tourists constantly sit and sleep on sofas from morning until late afternoon. The first thing that catches your eye is that the hotel has not been renovated for a long time. In 2017, there was no renovation, although it is written on Ukrainian websites that it was - a lie. The rooms are quite normal, not very different from those in 5 *. The food is very different. Everything edible, vegetables, fruits, herbs - everything is tasty, ripe and appetizing, but the choice of dishes is small. Only french fries or baked potatoes in large chunks, mashed potatoes in this hotel were not prepared even once in 8 days. Desserts were not very tasty and monotonous, but on the last day they probably changed the chef, because the assortment of food has changed for the better. Animation is present - 2 or 3 people. For children there is a children's animation and a children's room. But since all the tourists are scattered from the hotel to the beach or for a walk, the animators are loitering around. The hotel area is very small. The pool is not big, but almost no one swims in it - this is +. The road to the beach is not very attractive. You need to go through the trash of neighboring hotels and go through the shack of a local resident with an antediluvian greenhouse and a Zhiguli (very reminiscent of Berdyansk or Kerch) The beach is not bad, not good. There are enough beds for everyone. The sea is clean, the stones are not very large, but the territory is not well maintained, dirty. On the beach hand out tortillas, burgers and watermelons (delicious). There is no alcohol (((Kemer is a beautiful city, the mountains are huge, but not by the sea, it does not smell of pine needles. The hotel is located on the outskirts of the city, all the sights and parks are far away. It is better to go to the city center along the coast - it takes about 1 hour to the port (by the way, they are not allowed into the port). In May, it is already hot and stuffy, it is hard to walk on the stones. In the evening we walked to the Tower - it's about 40-60 minutes. To Moonlight Park - just drive - scooter rental $ 4 per hour. We took excursions from the tour operator Ginza, rode ATVs and drove Pamukkale (keep in mind that Pamukkale is only allowed to walk for 3 hours, and about the same amount you will be taken shopping ((() We went to Antalya on our own. The fare costs $ 3. Public transport in Antalya only with cards. You need to buy a card at the ticket office near Migros in Antalya. In no case from the driver - they do not understand English and Russian. The driver sold us 2 cards for 3 people for extortionate $ 9, could not explain why he gave instead of 3 cards, 2 and how long they are valid. It turned out that the cards were expired, I had to pay again on the next bus(((But it's worth coming to Antalya - a very beautiful old city)
