Kartal Hotel

Although the hotel Is a little old, everything else makes it a perfect stay. The location, breakfast, lift, the pool in season, but most importantly the staff. It feels more like family. Nothing is too much trouble and I will definitely be returning again. Thank you 😊

I honestly would have rated it at a 4 or 5 because of the price and quality ratio BUT I asked if I can extend my stay and due to language barrier they told me to wait for someone to come and speak English (even if I was using translator to Turkish) and after 30 min of waiting they told me it's all booked out. I know it wasn't booked out when I came in the morning because they still had rooms free online. Only due to the staff making me wait for someone rather than taking care of the request more promptly, I was forced to look for something else. I understand it's not their fault of being booked out, but 30 min wait was not acceptable without at least holding a room for me until someone could come and extend me. In terms of other things, the hot water was a huge plus (lots of hotels in the area struggle with that), checkin was fast. Rooms were pretty outdated but looked clean although they definitely need to buy new towels. Breakfast was simple but great for the price of the rooms.

Over all I enjoyed my stay at the Kartal hotel and would stay there again if i return. The staff are friendly and the location is great not far from the beach and surrounded by good restaurants and at a great price. For the price the breakfast was a bonus but was quite basic but the outside seating and the pool area are excellent. The hotel is privately owned and has a family feel to it, i felt safe there and they were lovely people. The rooms are basic but a nice size but a winner for me was the balcony where you can hang your washed clothes the room also had a good fridge, the bathroom was very good as well. The rooms are not cleaned daily so your not getting clean towels everyday day but just ask if you need them no problem, i just hanged my towel on the balcony it was dried in 5 mins (i think its a waste of money cleaning them everyday anyway), the wifi was good and there was a table and chair that i could sit at when using my laptop. So at the end of the day its an excellent budget friendly hotel in a great location, you might not be living in luxury but your have more money to spend at the local restaurants which is a winner for me as Turkish food is fantastic...

I was only supposed to stay for 4 nights but I asked if I could stay 2 more nights because they took care of me so well. The lady owner took me to the local fruit and vegetable market one day, which is located right next to the hotel once a week. The hotel is not the most modern, but it has what you need, nice room with small balcony, fridge, shower, hair dryer. TV is admittedly small, but when you are in Antalya and live near the beach, you don't need to watch much TV. The breakfast is of the smaller kind, the most necessary is available. but as I said, for this price you can't count on more. If you can handle a somewhat limited breakfast, then this hotel is one of the best in town when it comes to helpfulness and value for money. Most of the people behind the reception are not good at English, but I think that's charming. The ”local feel” and the feeling of really being abroad is worth a lot. Solution for the language barrier? We used Google Translate a lot and it worked great! I will definitely stay here again next time I visit Antalya. Probably this upcoming winter.
