First part of our experience was not too impressive. We flew from Istanbul new airport to Antalya. Taxi ride from Istanbul to airport costs about 150 TL. Istanbul airport is very high tech and everything is self service including baggage check in.
Taxi ride from Antalya airport to Topkapi Palace was 75 TL by taxi meter. A lady with Turkish costume was at the palace entrance at a table with champagne and other juices to greet arriving guests. But she was preoccupied with talking to other employees and cared less about greeting guests and offering drinks. Check in was quick and easy and we got a room for four which was two stories. A double bed downstairs and two singles upstairs. We unpacked and turned on the air conditioner. After a while noticed that the upstairs AC was not cooling. I called the front desk and they transferred me to guest relations who said they will send maintenance. After lunch we got back and the maintenance people said they had to get AC experts. So we went back to front desk and they gave us keys to two rooms in different buildings to check. AC in one of them did not work at all. But the other one was ok although the temperature never went below 22C even over night after we moved our stuff to the new room. By the time we were done moving, beach time was over.
Next day I noticed two identical charges on my credit card done by mistake or deliberately by a merchant in Istanbul. So, I needed a computer to log in and dispute one of the charges. I asked the guest relations if they have a desktop computer I could use. This is available in even the smallest hotel in the US. But not here. Eventually they were kind and took me to a small room upstairs of the lobby. After trying for half an hour I wasn't able to log in because their keyboards were in Turkish and my banks website would not recognize my password. I eventually quit and called the bank using Viber out call. The resort manager who provided his computer was very kind and helpful nevertheless.
Food is not impressive either. The main buffett restaurant is large with lots of food. But below average quality. The salads and desserts are much better than hot foods which are limited in variety and are plain in taste. Breakfast was OK too and better quality than lunch or dinner. Of course you get what you pay for. I cannot compare this place with Riu Palace in Mexico which is four times as much in price. Last night the live band was good and entertaining. Majority of guests here are Russian and therefore the resort is geared towards entertaining Russians. Trump would feel right at home here. I will continue my report as days pass.
