“Musstafa is Best♥️”

The whole hotel was great, but the best part was the bartender at the lobby bar. His name was Mustafa, and he became my best friend right away on the very first day. He did everything I needed, and I really enjoyed chatting with him. Every day, I looked forward to going to the bar to see him. One day, unfortunately, he wasn’t there, which made me a little sad, but luckily, on the last day, we said goodbye one last time. I really have to say that this guy made my vacation so much more enjoyable. If I ever come back, I’ll be really looking forward to seeing him. I hope you’re reading this, Mustafa, and that it makes you happy, at least a little bit.The food was varied, and while the entertainer kept things lively, there was something for everyone. There were plenty of drinks, and they were imported—not from the local area—which is great. For dinner at the restaurant, they served a variety of national dishes; there was plenty of everything—for vegetarians, fast-food lovers, or pizza fans. As for the kids, Leo was also great; he made a cool T-shirt for our son, and when he saw us, he even gave on his motorcycle. Whenever we saw him, he’d greet us by name—he knew exactly who we were—which made us feel really welcome. But the person I really can’t praise enough is Mustaffa, the bartender at the lobby bar. He truly made my vacation very enjoyable, and I’ll have very fond memories of him. I’d love to see you again, Mustaffa♥️

“Perfect Hotel”

Everything was so good, the location is god- near to sentrum and beach. Atmosphere was super. Rooms and the place is nice and clean, nothing to complain about. Service is 10 out of 10. A man named Tahir was so nice, checked up on us the whole time. Very nice. Lovely hotel!

“A good holiday”

So every year we pick a different hotel in side and this year was Aydinbey kings palace. First time staying here so as always an honest review, it’s a nice hotel, quite new and modern in appearance, lobby is absolutely gorgeous in appearance and aroma but more Importantly the rooms are very nice.… more

So every year we pick a different hotel in side and this year was Aydinbey kings palace. First time staying here so as always an honest review, it’s a nice hotel, quite new and modern in appearance, lobby is absolutely gorgeous in appearance and aroma but more Importantly the rooms are very nice. All aspects of the hotel are very clean especially the rooms Check in was easy and simple and given a sheet of paper with the do's and don'ts, more on that later I travelled with my two daughters 4 & 10 and we had the standard double room with side sea view, not much of a view to be honest, you look directly at another hotel unless you hang off the balcony and look right towards the sea. Rooms very clean, and the cleaning ladies are great, very friendly but kept trying to talk German to me, even though i kept saying i dont speak German. We had one king size bed and a single bed so was good and very spacious. Fresh towels every day but didn't bedding changed every day. Mini bar was stocked everyday no snacks, drinks only AC was not operating properly, no temperature or speed regulation at all, was either cold or off. couldn't control the AC at all. also was prone to switching off through the night which was an inconvenience Sitting area and drying area for swimming gear. WiFi was decent throughout the hotel Pools. Contrary to the house rules where you cannot reserve loungers, this is still very much a first come first served, so up the crack of dawn reserving sun loungers with towels or personal belongings. So if you want a sun lounger you need to be down sharp. As the norm seems to be in Türkiye plenty loungers sit empty all day with towels on them. Very selfish. Agian, the sooner Türkiye adapt to the Mexican way of removing items from loungers and stopping people reserving them the better and fairer for everyone. Pools are decent though, ice cream in freezer at pool bar are excellent and girls loved them! Pool bar is ok, bar staff were excellent but cocktails were terrible, special mention to pina colada and margheritas being the worst ever. Snack bar down at the beach for lunch open 1230 and was busy with everyone from the beach, was decent enough, basic menu with burgers etc. Lobby bar and Irish bar were good, great service here. Night time entertainment is either in hotel at a colosseum kind of arena or on the beach, we went to two, they were ok, other hotels entertainment sounded far superior, the animation team weren't al that visible, apart from one lad called Leo, my girls weren’t interested in the kids club so didn't really matter, one person did try to get me to pay for a t shirt or something which was politely declined. Main restaurant buffet for breakfast and dinner, was always busy but people had manners and was well presented. Breakfast isn’t great but you will always find something to eat. Meals in general were disappointing, not great, could have been so much better. Each to their own but we didn't find the food good at all. Table service for drinks was excellent though. We didn't bother with any of the al la carts we ate out a lot to get away from the hotel food Games room was decent, had a bowling alley which you had to pay for, really that should be included for the price you pay for the stay! All in all it’s been a good holiday with a 4/5 rating as was enjoyable but can be improved sorting the selfish sun lounger issue and the food and drinks. (Wasn’t many brits here, extremely heavy on ze Germans which didn't bother us at all) Would I return, no, the search for the perfect 5* in Side will continue next year.

“Annoying animation team”

The music is loud and repetitive, animation team is very annoying too. People pay for a relaxing holiday and don’t want to hear this. When the music stops it is so peaceful and lovely but as soon as the animation team get involved the vibe gets ruined
