칼라마르 호텔

돈 낭비하지 마세요! 이 호텔에서 정말 끔찍한 경험을 했습니다. 고장 난 변기에, 섭씨 38도에 에어컨도 없고, 몇 번이나 정전이 되어서 이 끔찍한 곳에서 벗어날 생각조차 할 수 없었습니다. 이런 문제는 일주일 내내 계속되었습니다. 직원들은 정말 무례했습니다... 정말 불편한 경험을 하게 되었습니다. 아무도 도와주려 하지 않았습니다! 싱글 침대 두 개를 붙여 놓은 더블 침대를 예약했는데, 이럴 줄 알았으면 싱글 침대 두 개를 예약해서 직접 예약했을 겁니다. 예약 업체에 끔찍한 경험에 대해 항의했지만, 호텔은 아무런 답변도 주지 않았습니다. 정말 무례했지만, 이 호텔을 완벽하게 요약한 것입니다. 좋은 호텔을 원한다면 이 호텔은 선택하지 마세요! 저는 이 호텔에 1*를 주었는데, 제가 너무 친절해서 그런 것 같습니다.

Just returned from a 2 week stay at Kalamar hotel which we booked for the location and infinity pool. Let's start with the good stuff: The views across Kalamar bay are breathtakingly beautiful and at night there is hardly any noise as it's further out of town and not on a main road. Hallil the pool-bar attendant was SO friendly and helpful throughout our stay, serving us drinks and snacks at our sun loungers. The pool bar has a wide variety of food available at lunchtime and prices were cheap. Infinity pool was just the right temperature ie it remained refreshingly cool even when the temperatures soared. The outlook across the horizon is insta-worthy. But really this was the high point of the hotel experience and thankfully were were lucky to have it more or less to ourselves for the first 10 days of the holiday as the hotel was practically empty until we neared the end of our stay. Here's a couple of things that didn't bother us BUT others should perhaps bear in mind: NOT suitable for anyone with mobility issues because the hotel complex is laid on a hillside with a series of terraces all connected with a LOT of steps. There are no ramps or lifts so if you cannot easily navigate steps this isn't suitable - that includes people travelling with small children. There is no kids' pool, and nothing about the Kalamar is geared up for children. (There are a few photos on older reviews of a small oblong pool which has recently been filled with earth and a few bushes planted in it!) Kalamar Hotel is an out-of-town location, we picked it for that reason and we had a hire car BUT it is not comfortably walkable to the main town/harbour (especially not in temperatures approaching 40c!) and even if you wanted to brave it and walk to some of the "local" shops/bars/restaurants you'd have to conquer some very steep hills there and back! The websites give the impression that Kalamar Beach Club is part and parcel of the Kalamar Hotel - but they are two separate entities. The KBC is down the bottom of a VERY steep hill (which our car struggled to get back up afterwards, hence we only went once!) and you have to pay a premium to have the use of sunloungers and parasols at the water's edge. Then you get waiter service from the cafe-bar on site. It is not an actual beach it's just a sunbathing platform with steps into the sea (which is refreshingly cool but too deep to stand - you need to be a confident swimmer and wear aqua shoes.) The hotel itself, over and above the aforementioned detail, was on the whole very shabby and dated.. I have been to Turkey many times so I know the difference between what to expect compared with other countries, but by UK standards this hotel is a 3-star at best (certainly not 4 star.. and I have stayed in many FIVE star hotels in other places where I have paid less.. Turkey is not as cheap as it was 5 years ago it is catching up with Greece/Cyprus/Spain/Canaries etc!) I do not want to be one of those people who posts photos o
