Meril Boutique Otel

“Second time again meril club”

This is our second visit to this hotel. They have changed for the better since we first arrived. Especially the quality of the food and the interest of the staff show this. If you have a quiet holiday without the sound of children, you should try this price with a quiet holiday.

First of all, we would like to thank all the staff, who were very friendly and helpful and did their best. The food and drinks were good value for money.

It's an adult-only hotel, so it's a great place to relax.

“Honest and not mad review :) Nice place if you’re not planning to spend whole days in the hotel!”

We stayed at this hotel in September. I wouldn’t say that it was as described in other reviews. We were going to Turkey to spend all our time by the sea and didn't use the pool at all. The pool isn't deep (1.4 m), and they cleaned it every evening. However, if you're going for the sea, what's the p… Plus

We stayed at this hotel in September. I wouldn’t say that it was as described in other reviews. We were going to Turkey to spend all our time by the sea and didn't use the pool at all. The pool isn't deep (1.4 m), and they cleaned it every evening. However, if you're going for the sea, what's the point of spending the whole day by the pool? Quality of Food and Rooms: This topic was important to me, and I'd say that most critical reviews were probably expecting four-star quality similar to well-known international hotels. It's illogical to assume such a thing when paying such a low, though reasonable, price. The food was good, but the salads weren't fresh at dinner because they were leftovers from lunch. The food variety is fine, but it could be better because you eat the same food every day, so after two or three days, you start looking for alternatives. There were options for breakfast, lunch, a coffee break, and dinner. Also, the bar was open until 11 PM. I wouldn't say they ran out of beer or other alcohol, but I didn't drink much at the hotel, so I can't be sure. Each diner, there was an outdoor grill. For two days, there was chicken, and for another two days, there were "turkey" patties, but to me, they tasted like lamb. The only huge disadvantage for me is that there are no descriptions of the food - no names or ingredients (which could be allergens). You're blindly guessing what you're eating or trusting the cook at the grill who tells you it's turkey. The rooms themselves are fine, but they definitely need repairs. A big minus for me was the shower, there was no curtain or door, so the floor was wet after each shower. We had to use a bathroom mat to wipe it down. I also don't recommend going inside the shower without slippers if you don't want to get a fungal infection because the shower certainly wasn't clean. You can see the photo, and this yellow buildup was in our slipper prints after a couple of showers. Moreover, the showerhead broke during our stay, it just fell off while my boyfriend was taking a shower. For three days, we were just using the hose. They didn't make us pay for it, as I read that someone else had to pay for a broken shelf, but they also didn't fix it for us. The rooms were cleaned every one or two days, but the staff only made the bed and vacuumed the floors, which is sufficient for some people but not for others. There's soap in the dispenser next to the sink and in the shower, but it isn't refilled during your stay. An additional point about the fridge: it's old and doesn't work without the room card. So, if you leave the room, don't expect your water to be cold when you return (a photo was attached) Wi-Fi: There's no Wi-Fi in the rooms, I guess due to limited number of allowed connections. I recommend buying an eSIM card if you plan to work. I personally chose Revolut eSIM, and it was nice since there's no 5G in Turkey anyway, and the price was good. Conclusion: To summarize, it's not four stars, as everyone seems to expect, but let's be fair - it's ridiculous to expect the treatment of a chain hotel at such a low price. The food was okay, but after two days, we started going out for dinner and had lunch at the beach. I hope the hotel will eventually label the food and allergens and try to repair the rooms a bit (even some cosmetic touch-ups would be a huge plus). I also hope they'll pay more attention to the cleanliness in the rooms and bathrooms. I'm not sure if the problem is with the staff or if they simply don't have the proper cleaning supplies. From my observation, it's the first option. We were looking for the cheapest option without any expectations because we were planning to spend our entire time at the sea. If you're okay with spending some money outside the hotel and aren't tied to the all-inclusive package you've paid for, this is a fair option. Additional Information: As a bonus, there's a pool table and table tennis that you can use for free, but they're also in bad shape.
