We rested in this hotel in July 2020 together with my husband. We chose a budget holiday, so we chose this hotel. Since we had already been to Alanya before, we knew that the hotel near Cleopatra Beach is an excellent option for the location of the hotel. The hotel is located in the block just opposite the entrance to the cable car (Teleferik). The quarter where Kleopatra Develi is located includes several hotels: Bebek, Bavyera. Develi is a hotel with dark green balconies. The hotel has a small swimming pool. The room rate included only breakfast. But there is one ”BUT”: for using the safe you will have to pay 15 euros for 7 days, and for using the air conditioner - 6 euros per day. We read reviews about it, but thought it might blow over and not have to pay. It turned out that after all, these are paid extra-services of the hotel, such a specificity of the hotel. Our guide clarified this point, we had to pay 350 liras for 7 days for air conditioning, in summer you can’t do without it. Consider these expenses, this significantly increases the cost of a ticket, perhaps for this price you can immediately take a hotel a little more expensive, but higher class or with improved nutrition, for example, breakfast and dinner. We arrived at the hotel at 6 am, check-in at 14-00. Until 11-30 we still held out, swam, went to a cafe to eat, but then we simply didn’t have the strength, since more than a day without sleep. We decided to ask to check in earlier. Earlier check-in cost us $10. We paid and they immediately gave us the keys - we should have done this from the very beginning :) But we do not regret that we paid extra - instead of the economy room that we had on the tour, they gave us an excellent standard triple room on the third floor, with a balcony. From the balcony on the left, a view of the sea, on the right of the mountains. The balcony overlooked the pool in the courtyard. The room has good comfortable furniture, refrigerator, hair dryer. Everything is clean and tidy. Cleaning somewhere every 3 days. They make the bed, change the towels, air everything. Breakfast at the hotel is served outside, each individually served plate with a Turkish breakfast (cheese, egg, olives, fruits, vegetables, jams with bread, tea, coffee). You can ask for supplements of whatever you want, they will bring you. But we were full, so we even asked to bring a little less cheese. Breakfast is the same every day. During the day, all tables, chairs and the alley are washed with a hose - disinfection. All staff are wearing gloves and masks. There are antiseptics at the entrance. Entrance to the hotel in a mask, in fact, as elsewhere in Turkey in public places (cafes, shops, public transport). Everyone follows the rules. Everyone is disinfected and your temperature is taken at the entrance. Therefore, there is no doubt about the safety of the rest. The location near the hotel is very cool - a beautiful atmospheric quarter with flags, apparently it was a favorite budget place for Europeans. The staff speaks only English, well, maybe they know a few words in Russian. In any case, they will understand you :) In a 2-minute walk, the most beautiful beach of Cleopatra, Migros, Damlatas cave, archaeological museum. Walk 20 minutes to the port of Alanya and to the Cuma Pazari bus station - from here you can take a 10 bus for 4.75 lira to get Dim Chai. Rya
