Marmaris Park Hotel Reviews
" Think carefully before booking this hotel "
Submitted By: karen d1
Thomas Cook rate this hotel as 4 star. I think they need to review that. Do not book this hotel. If you have a disability, eg, sight problems, difficulty walking, hip and back problems, asthma, have young children or are pregnant. This hotel is built on the side of a mountain. It has steps everywhere at least 50 leading to the beach (minus the sand) front. It has a few ramps and those are steep. The bungalows are very dark due to the large amount of tress on the mountain side. The drive leading from the main road to the actual entrance is so steep you will need and oxygen tank. The hotel is miles from any main shops or restuarants and you will need to get a taxi or bus to Icmeler or Marmaris but the buses are not suitable for people children and want to get them back in one piece. Health and safety is missing from this hotel even in it's basic form. Electric sockets are hanging off the walls. The toaster in the main buffet hall had a fork placed inside it holding up part of the interior. The foods is barely edible at the best of times but at breakfast it is disgusting. Unless you are a vegitarian and an olympic athlete I would not recommend this hotel. The staff are nice enough but the reception staff speak very little English. The whole place needs a major refurb. The only plus is the location the bay and mountains are beautiful.
Advice: not a lot
Activities: boat trips

" Good holiday "
Submitted By: jonjo
After reading some people's reviews of this holiday, I wondered whether we had done the right thing by booking it. But all I can say is that we did. It's superb value for money. The staff were all so friendly and helpful we can't speak highly enough of them. The place was being constantly cleaned. As far as food goes, if you can't find something that you like, well I'm surprised. Lying on loungers under the pine trees takes some beating.

Having previously visited Turkey, we were lookinf forward to our return, and Marmaris Park was wonderful. We arrived in the early hours of the morning, proptly booked in, shown to our rooms, then taken to the restaurant where they had put aside a meal for us. The atmosphere was wonderful, food excellent, staff friendly and endearing and rooms clean and practical. Icemeler is a short but pleasent walk along the beach and Marmaris is 5 minutes on the Dolmus (bus) for just 80p. We loved every minute of our 2 week stay, and must praise the Entertainment team for their attention and smiles!! Cant wait to go back at end of Sept this year, I would and have recommended this to many friends.

My husband and I have been to this hotel 4 times now and were going back again in 3 weeks, this time with our 14 month old daughter.
I can't praise the staff at this hotel enough, there the most helpful and friendly we've ever met.
The food is always lovely with many choices. It's always clean and tidy.
The views are amazing, especially if you take a walk along the coastal path into Icmeler.
The pools are great and again always clean.
The entertainment is good, during the day you can get involved in the pool games and in the evening there is entertainment at the Panarama bar, the Turkish night is fab.
I can't think of a single fault with this hotel, it's just great!
Highly recommended/

Submitted By: Ms T.G Shaw
We visited this hotel 2 years on the trot ( as did other families we saw again). The hotel is lovely, so picturesque.
The staff really put themselves out for you. The food was a dream, the restaurant manager preparing butter & ice sculptures several times.
The 'local' booze is great. Can't speak highly enough. Much enjoyed by all ages. The spa & hammam downstairs is a must.
I really miss it & would return annually but I want to give my boys many holiday experiences so it will be a few years before we return.

On the health and safety - well it was spotlessly clean, rooms cleaned every day, bedding changed 2 or 3 times in the week and towel everyday if you wanted. The wiring is typical of Turkey but there was free air con for the warm days and you just had to ask staff to adjust it for the cooler evenings...There was always hot water and the shower was fine, not the most modern bathroom but more than adequate. Even 5 star hotels in Turkey suffer power cuts from time to time but even though we had a storm - there were no power cuts. The toaster (in someone elses review) was temperamental when people jammed it with doorstep sized slices of bread - all it takes is a little common sense and patience. My husband has a very fragile stomach - but we ate well, with no problems (unlike Egypt)Breakfast - various breads, cold meats cheeses, jams, honey , yoghurt, dried fruits, cereals, pancakes, beans (to go on do it yourself toast)Boiled eggs. Evening and lunch always chips rice and a potatoe dish or pasta to choose from, plentiful salad, chicken, burgers, a cassserole dish - lovely lamb and liver amongst them. Not great vegetable choice peas one day and cauliflower or carrots. Variety of Turkish pastries and cakes. I drank rose wine and my husband red- both perfectly palatable or waiters would make up "special" coctails from local spirits. Don't be fooled they taste like fruit juice but do have a kick after a couple. Out and about ...to get to Ichmeler the nearest beach and prettier town - took us 20 minutes slow amble, the road is along the beachfront - no traffic, flat but a torch at night might be useful as cobbles in a few places are a bit uneven. I did discover this...after a very pleasant evening and several glasses of wine - so self inflicted! To get to Marmaris the Dolmus is quick, cheap and convenient - it does get crowded but as they run every couple of minutes...there is no law about waiting for another one. Another option is water taxi. Both are preferable to a Taxi cab - the taxi ride scared us witless - my daughter clocked the speedo at 90 Km in a 30 zone, winding roads and then we got conned for an extortionate fare. Don't agree to metered cabs - they are rigged - you would think it would be more honest but the best way is to agree a price first. They will be reluctant, but then back down if you are firm. recommend bartering im Icmeler market, lazy days boat trip (we booked with Mr Tom just after water taxi point in icmeler) - super day swimming, plenty to eat - barbequed on board, beach stop, visit to Turunc. Was exactly what it said on the tin - a no hassle, relaxing day in the sun.
Back to the hotel in general - room was rather dark but then again it was in the middle of a pine forrest and it was October but as we didnt spend much time in the room it was not a problem. In summer it would be a Godsend, shading from the heat of the day. Balcony very small but then loads of other areas to sit and this time of year did not sit out on balcony anyway.
All in all good value, food and drinks at any tine of day, pleasant staff, loved using the sauna which was free, fab views, massages on site but not hassled. The weather wasnt great - 2 days of rain and only two really warm days...so would have been even better. Nice pool but to cold this timeof year. End of season so some facilities shut like the beach bar and beach restaurant and the evening entertainment could have been better - was non existant really. Some music in the bar and just generally socialising with fellow guests and bar staff. Again it depends what you want - for us it was nice to chill, take a stroll out in the evening and then come back to the hotel for a few drinks. Would I go back - yes, already considering May / June but not in the height of the season as the idea of lots of people drinking all inclusive alcohol all day,scrabbling over sunbeds and comparing moans about the food does not appeal. We met several nice couples all who had a lovely time and appreciated the time to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the surroundings but then there are always some that just make you cringe to be British as they are arrogant, rude and foulmouthed. Now if the staff could write a guest review...that would be interesting. Enjoy your holiday - keep an open mind, treat the staff respectfully and if you arent happy with something or you need something - just ask.
Advice: Marmaris very quiet and somewhat dissapointing in October. Beach dirty - stay near Icmeler
Activities: Mr Tom/Jimmys boat trip, Cafebar next- Fortuna hotel overlooking beach - restaurants along front
Good for: City Breaks
