We stayed 15 to 20 August 2020, during covid period hotel was 100% occupied, covid measures are just cosmetics (nobody wears masks except in the main restaurant) and impossible to maintain social distance, it is too crowded, there is not enough place.
Hotel is renovated and looks great! Has top of the class furniture / facilities...
But workers are unexperienced, and they sometimes don't even deliver orders.
Answers we got from them:
- I don't know that's my 1st day here
- "what do you want me to do" after I told one of them that there was dirt (possibly children poo) in the pool
- one guy continued to take orders after I told him there was some broken glass next to the kids pool.
Food is the same every day. It is OK but not what you would expect from a 5* hotel.
80% of the guests are from Russia, and there seems to be some special care for them. So if you are not Russian, doesn't seem the place to be.
We were staying in Titanic Belek before and it was a mistake to change. The topkapi theme was what made us try it. At Titanic the food was way better, overall everything was better, and for the same price (maybe a hundred usd difference) which I will happily pay for my next vacation.
Not recommended. Reservation made through etstur: 1000 usd for 5 days, it is not worth the money.
