May 2011, unhappy customer

Just got back from this hotel and i was glad to leave quite frankly. The restrictions are ridiculous (no food or drink on the premises that have not been bought there) which was very difficult with the kids. The breakfast was appauling although the evening meals were nice.... more

Grand Faros hotel, the place i now call my second home. The people who work in the hotel are so kind, i miss them all so much. Kenny (Doga) is the best entertainer you will ever find. I came home a few days ago and now i really want to go back. The rooms there are always cleaned and you can trust their cleaners too. It's just amazing!

We stayed at the Grand Faros for 2 weeks, I have to be honest and say that they were two of the worst weeks of our lives. I will try and be thorough and fair though. We go on holiday to relax, not too listen to agadoo played at ear splitting volumes day and night, which is... more

Grand Faros Hotel
My very first visit to Marmaris Turkey and already I'm planning another trip. We stayed at the Grand Faros Hotel and it was absolutely perfect (apart from the breakfast). The staff there were friendly, polite and very professional. The hotel itself was nice. My advice for anyone going out there is go with an empty suitcase because the markets and stores are filled with a shoppers dream and bargains. The beaches were alright although I did miss not having a sandy beach between my toes. Go there if you have not already. My daughter... more
Very Poor Hotel and Service
We satyed at this hotel and were advised that this was a 4 Star. I cant tell you how dissapointed we got there. There is no way this is a 4 star hotel, more like 2 star. The rooms were small and tacky and the corridors were dark and dingy. If you fancy flys on your food for breakfast then you will enjoy this hotel. There were not enough sun loungers or even deck chairs, we had to fight off the Germans to find somewnere to sit near the pool. The pool was too small, the views were poor from our bedroom. The customer service was non existant... more
Wouldn't class it as a 4 star
We had booked this hotel through a third party website (because the hotel wouldn't reply to our emails when we tried to book direct). The location of this hotel is quite good as there is a bus stop on the doorstep where buses go to marmaris (very very vheap) - this takes 5 minutes. On arriving at the hotel the manager was almost surprised to see us (as if he wasnt expecting us) they didnt have a room for us and arranged for us to sleep at another hotel for 1 night. This hotel was shoddy and we didnt even have a double bed !! We were too... more
If Dutch you will be at home
12Sept to 26 2005 This was a special occasion my wifes birthday and our anniversary. We arrived at this hotel at 21.30 just in time for dinner,it was a buffet outside which looked good,as it is dark at that time you cannot see what you are eating and as it is round the pool the paving slabs are not laying straight and can cause a nasty fall. food acceptable except my wife likes fish, the matre de said no call for fish so not available the whole time there 2 weeks, we then went up to our room to find the view of the mountains and a carlsberg... more
Good value for money
Grand faros is average compared to uk hotels but probably above average to other 4stars in turkey (although there are some gorgeous 5stars...) . We found the staff at reception to have limited knowledge of english however after complaining about the view from our balcony on the first day we were moved to a much better room and were thankfull to them for that. The waiters are very friendly if a little bit flirtatious at times. Drinks at pool bar expensive however we found that to be the case everywhere half decent in marmaris; the... more
Not bad at all!
Just got back after a week's holiday, was quite impressed, all in all very good value for money. Staff are very friendly & helpfull & made sure everyone was happy. Food very nice & well presented, a very good lunch time menu was available with resonable prices. Nice & clean, the cleaning lady was always making our room look nice with flowers etc. The air conditioning was very good and at no extra charge as a lot of hotels in Turkey do charge for air conditioning. Only problem I found was the rooms were a bit on the small side but there... more
Okay hotel, Annoying Problems
Me and my partner stayed at this hotel for a week in August. Although we had a good holiday, the hotel created allot of annoying problems for us. When we first got there we were put into the wrong room, instead of having a double room we were given a twin room, the view was descent although it looks very deserted around the hotel. When we decided to pay our tab 4 days later, we found that they had been charging us for our meals when we were Half-Board, we managed to sort the problem out but the receptionist was very rude and was 'huffing and... more
Grand Faros is terrible
My self and my partner recently returned from Marmaris and the Grand Faros. I have to say that this was the worst trip i have ever had to the destination of Turkey (having been three times) and it was purely down to the rudeness of the staff at the Grand Faros. more
Fabulous!
We spent 2 wonderful weeks at this hotel and had a brilliant time. The staff are so helful and always carry a smile on their face, especailly the team of waiters and bar staff....they definately make the holiday! The pool is a decent size and never gets too over crowded which is always nice. There was a wide range of food on offer at evening times and it was presented beautifully. Lunch menu is reasonable and always cooked to perfection Even though it is set away from marmaris beach (which isnt that nice anyway), the hotel runs a free... more
great hotel
This is a great hotel it is set away from the beach but the hotel bus will take you were you need to go. Food and service are excellent
