" not satisfied "
Submitted By: sabzero
At the pics of Royal Wings they show alot of lights but the hotel is too dark! When we were checking out the stupid room service told them that 3 towels were missing so they insulted us by looking into our bags! The Entertainment team offer u to tak u to the biggest and best disco of antalya but they will take u t a small and very expensive disco where u should pay 5 euro for one beer! Don't go the disco of the hotel is much better than that!
Advice: It's not good for adults too boring
Activities: it's good for families only
Good for: Beach

" Just returned from a fantastic... "
Submitted By: Mrs L Glazebrook
Just returned from a fantastic holiday at the Royal Wings Hotel with my husband and 2 children (aged 3 and 2) my sister-in law and her husband and 2 children (aged 4 and 2) and my parents in law. I had high hopes after reading all the positive reviews, but it still completely exceded all my expectations!
The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and loved to make a huge fuss of the children! They all spoke very good english (great as we don't speak Turkish!), as well as German and Russian. Most of the guests were German or Russian, also some dutch but british guests were definitely the minority. It didn't matter to us, as we found everyone pleasant and friendly. It was nice to bump into fellow brits though!
Our room layout was perfect. We were situated on the 10th floor (top) and the room was split into 2 levels with our bedroom being on the higher level with a balcony looking down to the lower level where our children slept in twin beds. This worked perfectly for keeping an eye on them whilst still having our own space. Their was a bathroom on each level - one with bath and one with shower. The room was the cleanest i've ever stayed in. The shampoo, conditioner and shower gel were replenished daily, so no need to take your own. Also no need to take beach towels as they are provided and can be changed daily - great for saving vital space in your suitcase! There is also a fridge in the rooms which have a selection of drinks - replenished daily and free, of course.
The food was excellent. There was always plenty of choice throughout the day and never seemed to be any queues for anything. I ate like a pig for the duration of the holiday and still never got to try everything I wanted!!! The evening buffet restaurant was huge and had a good variety of food. Nothing ever seemed to run out! The meals at the Thai, Italian and Fish restaurants were brilliant too, though the children started to get a little bored waiting for us to finish all 7 courses!
Drinks were also great - I was surprised to see well known makes amongst the locally produced stuff. My husband was very pleased with the beer - he thought it might be a bit weak and tasteless, but was very surprised and drunk plenty! I loved the Pina Colada by the pool and also the Royal Wings Special cocktail....YUM. The children all loved the icy, slush type drinks which kept them quiet for a good half hour! If you're a fan of a nice cup of tea, you may be dissapointed though! You can't get a proper cup of tea, so you might want to take your own teabags!
The grounds were pristine, the pools clean, the seating areas perfectly situated, the beach was clean.....it was just lovely! We had some fantastic photographs taken by the photo team, which were very reasonably priced, and it was an extra bonus that they were able to airbrush out my daughters recent chickenpox scars!!
We all felt very sad when it was time to leave and all agreed that it was probably the nicest hotel we've ever stayed in - and prabably the nicest holiday we've ever had!! Although we had young children to look after, it was a very relaxing holiday. We're all hoping to make a return visit soon.

" This is the best hotel in the world!... "
Submitted By: Miss S Gaines
This is the best hotel in the world! It is by far the best holiday I have ever been on. The hotel is very clean and safe as the staff are very friendly and have security guards around.
There is lots to do in the hotel during the day and night. During the day there are activities done by the animation team including pool games, darts, volleyball and a mini club for the kids. At night there is a mini disco for the children and afterwards a show done also by the animation team which were excellent and were very well prepared. The animation team were especially nice Michael, Eadi, Gio and many others were very welcoming and after the shows either go to the pool bar or piano bar and talk to you. Also in the hotel to do at night is the giddy disco in club giddy every night which starts at 11:30 and ends at about 02:30.
There is food served in the Royal Bistro for breakfast, lunch and dinner which serve a variety of food and have themed nights. There is also a la carte restaurants which have to be booked in advance the night before. Also starting at midnight is a food place which opens and serves a late breakfast as well.
There is a water-park and funfair in the hotel which are very good as well and clean. The staff are all very friendly and can speak a good variety of english so are easy to talk to.
I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is interested in Turkey and I would go there again and again as I have been there 2 times this year and I am going again in a few months.

" I would like to say that I enjoyed... "
Submitted By: Miss J Butterworth
I would like to say that I enjoyed every minute of my holiday and wish I didn't have to come home, however, as my friend and I enjoyed it so much we have booked a return trip for later this year.
We have only been back a week and I am missing it already.
The staff were amazing and highly entertaining during the day and the evening.
We spent our days by the pool watching the entertainment team playing darts, boccia and beach volley, and our night watching the variety of show produced by the team.
After a few drink we would head off to giddy disco and see the resident DJ spin some tunes.
I must say this holiday will stick in my mind forever, unless next time we have more fun!!
The food in the hotel was also fantastic the variety of food was great.
With a touch of class, this hotel is great for everyone!

" This was our 2nd stay at a 5* AI.... "
Submitted By: Mr R MCMILLAN
This was our 2nd stay at a 5* AI. (Previous was the Sun Zeynep in Belek). After carefully trawling through the reviews, we opted for a Thomas Cook package deal at the Royal Wings.
We arrived at 4.00am in the morning and checked in ok. The room was the quality we had expected and everything looked very clean. So first impressions of the hotel were very good and it certainly looked a classy place. The first problem we had were the clothes hangers in the wardrobe which were all broken, so when you hung your clothes on them, the frame came away from the hook and your clothes ended up on the floor – not a good start.
In the morning, it became abundantly clear that we were in the minority as British guests, in fact out of 1700 people staying at the hotel, my family and I made up all of twenty British people. 50% being German, 30% Dutch, 10% Russian and 5% Spanish. The other 5% consisting of Turks, French and British. Before this holiday, it never bothered me to be in and around foreign people but to have so many Germans in your face with their pushy ways and rude attitudes was intolerable.
The staff in the hotel were very nice but only about a handful could speak English, Some others could only speak the basics and the rest none at all – but they could all speak German. There seemed to be an obvious bias towards the Germans as they always got attended to first in the dining room or bars.
The resort currently consists of a dual carriage way with about a dozen beachfront 5* AI hotels and a shopping centre on one side and apartment blocks and smaller shopping centre. The Royal Wings is at the eastern edge of the main resort (in its current stage of development) about 10 minutes walk from the shopping areas.
The Royal Wings has a central 10 storey high building. There are 6 lifts, 4 are glass, with 2 overlooking reception area and 2 looking over pool and gardens. The lifts were a bit of a nightmare at peak times with everyone calling them at the same time. I lost count of the number of times I saw what looked to be fit people getting in a lift to travel one floor.
All rooms have air conditioning controls which can be set at various temperatures; however the main unit is centrally controlled and as it was October, had been switched off although it was still 27 degrees through the day. This meant that the unit was only blowing normal air which made the room hot and sticky at night and difficult to sleep. To overcome this, we had to leave the door open, which led to an invasion of mosquitoes.
On our second day, there began a 16 hour thunderstorm, which led to large expanses of water forming all around the hotel in the areas where building work was being carried out. On seeing this, I thought to myself that these would be breeding grounds for more mosquitoes and sure enough, by the start of our second week they were everywhere. As the air conditioning was not on, the various doors were open frequently which led to most people going around with lots of visible bites. I was bitten over 30 times. There were even mosquito larvae in the lazy river.
The food in the main buffet restaurant was very continental, but plenty of choice.
Breakfast consisted of pancakes, omelettes, various breads-home baked, fruit, pastries/cheese cold meats cereals etc. If you want fresh orange juice you will have to fork out 2 Euros per glass. The choice at breakfast & lunch did not seem to vary much from day to day and the evening meals were very repetitive. If you happened to use the main buffet restaurant at peak times, then be prepared to be patient – very patient.
When we were there, the in thing with the continental kids was roller blade type things that attached to your trainers; fine except it was often very difficult to avoid 25 – 30 kids in the dining room buzzing about on these things. I complained on two occasions to the hotel management that this was a health and safety issue in the dining room but nothing was done. I guess they did no want to offend their majority customers. The food in general was at best average. Main dishes were repeated quite often and most times it was not very hot. Because the doors were open quite often (no air conditioning) there were lots of flies and mosquito’s around. Most of the fruit cocktail was always full of small flies.
The outdoor food corners were OK except for the Kebabs. These being the most popular snack at lunch time attracted larger queue’s (something the Germans don’t like). My wife and I had upset stomachs for most of the holiday. Another aspect of the main dining room was that there was no clear no smoking area and most of the smokers just lit cigarettes whenever they felt like it which got on my nerves because there is nothing worse than getting smoke all over your not very warm rotten food.
I was very disappointed in the choice of international branded drinks available. My wife ordered a Southern Comfort which cost 5 Euros. There are a choice of about 10 alcoholic & a few non-alcoholic cocktails. The wine was disgusting except for one of the rose wines in the dining room. Soft drinks were a bit of a hit and miss depending on what bar you used. It is all draught soft drinks and most of the time there was either not enough concentrate or not enough CO2.
The lagoon style swimming pool meanders through the grounds & together with the profusion of palm trees and straw thatched bars & restaurants had a Polynesian feel. The pools are not heated and to be honest are very cold when you first go in. The sea was actually warmer. We had no problem getting a sun bed at any of the pools or the beach but we did notice lots of people ignoring the rules of not reserving sun beds before 9.00am and getting away with it. If you like the shade, there were plenty of shaded sun beds on the beach.
Towels are provided, which you can change once each day. If you lose a towel you will be charged 10 Euro. The aqua park was on the whole quite good although it was very busy. We ended up buying a ring for our son so that he did not have to bother with the hassle surrounding these flumes. The area around the aqua park gets very wet at peak times and we found this to be slippery and dangerous as it is not non slip tiling around the pools.
The beach in front of the hotel is very nice being mostly sand with some single at the sea edge. It was more peaceful lying at the beach away from the endless noise around the pools. Water sports like parasailing, Jet Ski catamaran etc are available from the beach (additional charge about £20 for 15mins) there are a wide range of activities available during the day. I did the archery & airgun and won, much to the disgust of one German Guy who thought he was Robin Hood! The entertainment team seem to work hard during the day to please those who want to take part in the activities, although they did tend to annoy you to take part and won’t take no the first time of asking.
Hot water was a problem if you wanted to shower at around 6 – 7pm. It seemed to be that everyone in the hotel was showering at this time and the hot water just runs out.
Night time entertainment consisted of either going to the nightly shows or sitting around one of the bars in the lobby area listening to a couple of Turks trying to sing English Songs. We went to the shows a couple of times which we found to be absolute rubbish but it was quite funny to see the entertainers making a fool of themselves.
After the show there is always a mad rush to get a seat around the lobby bars as this is where everyone hangs out at night. There is only a very small area for non smokers and these seats are usually gone pretty fast. If you were really bored at night you could always retire to your room early and watch one of the many German Channels on the TV or you could watch the one British channel – BBC World.
Except for the shopping mall there is nothing in the immediate resort and unless you have transport or prepared to pay big taxi fares, you are very isolated. You can get the resort bus (out 1000 ret 1600) into Antalya for 5 Euro or the local Dolmus for 1 Euro each way. It takes about 30mins to get to Antalya on the resort bus.
Antalya is quite a large city with lots to see and a quaint little harbour in the old town. There is a large shopping centre and a couple of Bazaars which sell the usual fake rubbish. Going round these bazaars is not for the faint hearted because the traders are in your face from the moment you walk in. I found it a good tactic to haggleat a ridiculous low price and meet somewhere in the middle. Prices in the hotel shops and the local shopping mall are expensive, so it is best to travel to Antalya if you want to buy anything.
This was by far one of the worst holidays we have had all points considered but at least the weather was good -sunny 26 -27c most days. We could not do Turkey again as we have been put off by everything that happened to us this year. We certainly would never plan to stay in any hotel with so much a minority of British people.
The Royal Wings is a nice looking hotel but it’s a pity there is so much wrong that make it for me, quite a bit short of the 5 star we expected.

" We stayed at the Royal Wings hotel... "
Submitted By: Miss C Gokensel
We stayed at the Royal Wings hotel from 13th Aug - 27th Aug and had an amazing time. I went with a group of 18 family members ranging from 9 yrs old - 50+. We all had a fantastic time, not one of us could say any different.
All of the good reviews below i totally agree with, the hotel was immaculate; I could not fault them in that department.
The staff were amazing, the Entertainment team especially! Charlie, Michael, Metin and Katia were amongst a few who made our stay very enjoyable. I have never been to a hotel that has this kind of high standard in entertainers. Their shows in the evening were highly entertaining and funny, their dance shows/musicals were so impressive that some of them could be in West End musicals! I do suggest that if you stay at Royal Wings that you become familiar with the entertainers I have mentioned above, they made our holiday what it was and we were sad to say good bye to them.
Charlie is the chief entertainer, you'll see him wondering about the hotel in the day smiling and saying hello to anyone who will listen, he is also the star of most of their shows. Michael ran the air gun competition everyday and was also in majority of the evening shows. Metin ran Darts twice a day, at 11am and again at 3.30pm, we as a family played twice a day! Katia ran anything to do with dancing and was also the star alongside Charlie in the evening shows. Definitely say hi to all these entertainers if you visit Royal Wings. Most of the guys are Turkish and most of the girls are Russian but they all speak English and more than capable of having a conversation with you.
So much to do at the hotel and so little time, I didn't get to do most things I wanted to do as there was always something else that I was doing! Great hotel, guaranteed great time if you go here.
Everywhere you go in the hotel there is a bar! Every bar, apart from poolside and disco, has waiter service; if they even see you go up to the bar they insist you take a seat so they can get your drinks for you, 1st class service.
Only downside is that in peak season you'll be queuing for a while for your food, especially at lunch time at the pizza/kebab stand. As in previous reviews, there are very few British and the shows are aimed more at the Russian/Turkish guests, this doesn't mean you won't enjoy them though.
Overall, I would recommend this hotel to anyone; the hotel is so lovely and faultless. All the staff, especially the entertainment team made our family holiday the best that we have been on. We was in Turkey 4 years ago and didn't think any holiday could top that, well this one certainly did.
Don't delay; book this hotel for a fantastic stay!

Most of the guys are Turkish and most of the girls are Russian but they all speak English and more than capable of having a conversation with you.
So much to do at the hotel and so little time, I didn't get to do most things I wanted to do as there was always something else that I was doing! Great hotel, guaranteed great time if you go here.
Everywhere you go in the hotel there is a bar! Every bar, apart from poolside and disco, has waiter service; if they even see you go up to the bar they insist you take a seat so they can get your drinks for you, 1st class service.
Only downside is that in peak season you'll be queuing for a while for your food, especially at lunch time at the pizza/kebab stand. As in previous reviews, there are very few British and the shows are aimed more at the Russian/Turkish guests, this doesn't mean you won't enjoy them though.
Overall, I would recommend this hotel to anyone; the hotel is so lovely and faultless. All the staff, especially the entertainment team made our family holiday the best that we have been on. We was in Turkey 4 years ago and didn't think any holiday could top that, well this one certainly did.
Don't delay; book this hotel for a fantastic stay!

Stayed at Royal Wings 06/06/06 - 13/06/06. The hotel is super, staff are wonderful polite and very friendly, the hotel and pool area very clean (and I am the Queen of clean).
The food beautiful and lots of it, the Italian is a must do. The Aqua Park fun even for adults. The place is like a palace and they really make you feel as is you were royalty. Our best holiday so far, don't think we can beat this one.
The weather was very hot but comfortable. I will be going back very soon. Great value for money.

This has to be one of if not the best hotel I have stayed in. Its all inclusive 5* in Antalya although there is not much in the surrounding area there is no need to step a foot outside this hotel as it has everything you could wish for in a hotel.
The food was extensive and wonderful there was no limit on drinks and even import drinks were included in this.
They breakfast buffet opened from 8-10.30 and if you missed this the late breakfast was served from 11.00-12.00.
Dinner was from 6.00-10.00 and there was a choice of a Turkish restaurant and an Italian.
Nothing more to say apart from WOW! I would definitely go again and the staff were brilliant.
