We stayed at Asia Beach and Spa Hotel in Alanya and it was a huge disappointment. This hotel is advertised as a 5-star luxury resort, but it is nowhere near that standard. The reception staff were rude and unhelpful right from check-in. The gym is only open from 9 am to 7 pm, has no air conditioning or even a fan, so working out is unbearable. Rooms are poorly soundproofed, and you can hear loud music and karaoke from the hotel next door until midnight. The rooms themselves are uncomfortable. Beds come with old, worn sheets and razor-thin single sheets even on double beds. Double rooms only provide two very flat pillows, and when you ask for more, you’re given lumpy, misshapen ones. The en-suite bathroom was very basic, with a broken flush and no proper amenities. Rooms were not properly cleaned—just the sheets folded. We had a spillage on the first day, and it was still there when we left on day five. The room was gritty and dusty, and clearly not being properly maintained. The toilets in all common areas were even worse: dirty, smelly, often without toilet paper, rarely cleaned, and with broken flushes. Food was another major letdown. The main restaurant only offered a buffet, with no labels to indicate whether dishes were meat, fish, or vegetarian, and no allergens listed. Staff spoke little or no English, and when we asked for help, one walked away and another simply said they didn’t know. When we enquired about the à la carte restaurant, we were told it only opens if at least 20 people book together. They also said they do not cater for vegetarians. The snack bar only served greasy fast food, with watermelon being the only vegetarian option. Bars had a very limited cocktail selection. The interiors were dated, with worn carpets, dusty skirting boards, and broken fittings. Even the curtain in our room came off when we tried to tie it back, and we had to fix it ourselves. The only saving grace was the spa treatments, but again, they don’t provide robes or slippers, so you need to bring your own. Overall, this is not a luxury hotel at all. Between the rude staff, poor food, dirty and uncleaned rooms, filthy common toilets, broken facilities, and noisy, uncomfortable nights, this was a complete letdown. Spend your money elsewhere if you want a proper holiday.
