There is nothing not to like about Side Resort Hotel, it is clean the staff are all friendly. Great choice of food daily with a different outside grill option every night, themed evenings were great fun, the entertainment finished around 10:00pm each evening so great for families, bars closed at 11:00pm, for us everything was perfect, clean & friendly it’s a 3*plus but we feel it was more a 4*.
We had a great holiday and would highly recommend this hotel.

Staff were excellent and property clean. Food was satisfactory although slightly repetitive. Only problem was slide in children's pool did not have water running down all the time, so most of the time was ineffective. Would recommend a stay here though.

Good holiday
Great hotel and would defo recommend. I would say that for the money and it being October holidays the day entertainment was very poor and would never go again this time of year and pay what I paid for that level of entertainment. The staff are all super friendly and can’t fault any of them! I would be rating it lower had the staff not been so great.

Fantastic hotel clean and great facilities.
Fantastic hotel in a great location near to the beach. Bus to take you to and from the beach but was not a long walk either. Close to shops and restaurants and Side Centre.
Hotel facilities were fabulous swell as the animation team who provided non stop entertainment and activities.
Rooms were very modern and very clean with cleaners visiting every day. Linen was immaculate. Large balcony in a one bedroom apartment.
There is an on site shop for convienence although a bit more expensive than the local supermarkets. The Italian restaurant by the pool was very good value.
I visited the on site spa and well being centre where I had a Turkish bath and 3 deep tissue massages. The whole experience was fabulous and a lot cheaper than the UK.
I would recommend the Haman at the start of your holiday as it prepares your skin and you do not peel half way through your holiday.
I did not eat in the buffet restaurant but other guest commented on how good it was. Packages can be purchased on arrival for all inclusive or just meals.
Great entertainment for children.
So good going back in June.

Schönes Hotel für kleines Geld. Zimmer frisch gestrichen und sauber, Poll sehr schön gepflegt. Essen hat mir garnicht geschmeckt. Sehr auf Englisches Publikum abgestimmt. Viel frittiert, nicht meins. Würde das Hotel auf 3 1/2 Sterne bewerten. Freundliches Personal, im Service eher ungeschultes Personal. Da besteht definitiv noch Luft nach oben. Besonders im Restaurant. Wenig aufmerksam, da unerfahren im Service viele Mitarbeiter. An der Poolbar war es super👍

Resortin perheasunto upea
Nämä hyvät numerot tulevat Resortin puolella olevalle perheasunnolle - todella kaunis ja hyvä huone - oli ilo yöpyä.
Huonompaa arviota sitten all inclusive ruokailulle - hälyisää ruokala meininkiä ja palvelu tylyä.
Hyvä sijainti ja kävelymatka Siden antiikkiselle kaupungille

Heel fijn hotel! Echt een aanrader, het is er netjes, het personeel is heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam, de faciliteiten zijn helemaal top! Het is een 4 sterren hotel, maar we hebben bij andere hotels van 5 sterren gezeten en deze is gewoon beter. 5 sterren zou niet misstaan. Wat ons ook opviel is het eten, erg goed verzorgt, heel divers elke dag. We hadden ook niet het gevoel ergens een keer te willen uit te gaan eten. Het eten is heel divers, geen megabuffet maar wel voor elk wat wils. Bijna niks met friet en gefritureerde rommel, allemaal kwalitatief goed spul! De kamer was als familiekamer erg compact, maar heeft voor ons als gezin met 1 kind van 3 jaar prima volstaan. Prachtige vakantie gehad!! We komen zeker een keer terug! Het hotel is scandinavisch georiënteerd dus met de kinderdisco e.d. is alles in het zweeds/noors, voor onze dochter nog niet zo'n probleem, maar mssn voor oudere kinderen minder handig. De dames van de animatie spreken ook goed engels, en doen goed hun best, ook lolo en bernie waren een succes! voor ons was dat perfect!

Hübsches Hotel in Side Manavgat Nähe
Das Hotel ist klein aber fein. Es liegt zentral zum kleinen Ort Manavgat und auch ca.10 min mit dem Bus von Side entfernt. Das hotel ist sehr Strand nah ca.3 min mit dem Hotel Shuttle zu erreichen. Die Mitarbeiter waren stets freundlich ausser der Restaurantleiter der leider seine Position in jeglicher Serviceform nicht gerecht ist. Das Essen war nicht der Burner aber vielfältig. Die Animation im Hotel, teils kommt er mit gleichen Action nichts neues oder Abwechselndes. Die Show Führung abends nach dem Essen war teils gut teils Langweilig. Im grossen und ganzen war das hotel durchnitlich okay. Wer mehr Luxus oder Vielfältigkeit erwartet sollte mehr bezahlen um anderweitiges zu erhalten.

Bra hotel i gangavstand til sentrum. Vi var der i juli/august skiftet, var ingen problemer med å få solsenger nærme bassenget. Det var alltid noe man kunne spise til måltidene ( vi hadde all inclusive). Hvis vi satt ute på balkongen, kunne vi ikke lukke balkongdøren. for da gikk den i lås og vi kom ikke inn igjen. Og hvis balkongdøren var åpen, så funket ikke air conditionen på dobbeltrommene. Fint for barnefamilier da det er stille på hotellet etter 23.00. Er lite bråk fra nærområder.

There should be a bellboy to handle your luggage and to show you the way to your room after longtime travel. Customer service is required for helping guest with informations they need, the housekeeping should take aware about the cleaning more. My overall stay was ok and i enjoyed.
