Gunes House

We had a great fortnight here at this hotel, it was our second trip to Turkey but first to Alanya, a very interesting place to see. Yes you have to barter for the best prices but it was done over tea & with smiles, when my husband wanted to get some shoes he even received a pair of socks! Our trip was during the Icelandic ash cloud period which actually caused us only a little delay due to visiting for 2 weeks unfortunately some of the Danish people we met went home by coach 5 days worth of travel at least. The hotel was very good, beds superb & food very nice.

We got a very good deal and used this as a base to explore the whole of southern turkey and cappodocia with a hire car. We had a room with a sea and castle view which was very decent and clean. (the cleaners were very sweet and friendly). The hotel is set a little back from the main seafront road and about 100m from the sea. Guests get access to the 'beach club' of the Gunes Beach Hotel and this is well worth using. Everywhere in Alanya is within walking distance. Staff were very helpful and friendly- we were the only English people staying the rest of the guest were scandanavian. This is a reasonably basic (very clean and well maintained) hotel but great location and excellent value for money.

They played techno/Dance music All Day at the pool area. It was so loud we couldn't hear ourselves think - we had to flee to the beach...and also No opportunity for an afternoon nap if needed. VERY bad food, VERY bad service and the employees can't speak more than a very few words of english. I asked Them a couple of times to turn the Music Down or maybe even turn it off - But it Didn't Help anything at all. This place is equivalent to Sunny Beach, and I really don't understand why they present it as a family hotel at some travel agencies. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!! :-( - only plus is that the Beach is close by.. Bad experience for sure.
