The Marmara, Antalya, Turkey - A Review

Though a bit crazy looking, we thought The Marmara Antalya was quite nice. You can see from the rooms that it is decorated like nothing you might have seen before....  Green and blue strips on some walls, pink sponge treatment on another wall, beach furniture in the room... hot pink and orange paper thin shower curtain...
Looking from the entrance - no balcony at a seaside hotel....
Two sinks - which was nice, and a crazy door which closed two spaces at once, the toilet and the bathroom

Turquoise day bed.... that was my dresser, as no dresser in the room, though tons of hooks
Service - at night it was attentive in the dining room
Ambiance - crazy, unlike anything I have seen r expected
Cleanliness - no issue
View/Balcony - no balcony, but nice view of the pool and the sea
Room Number - 1907

Toiletries - yes
Coffee & Tea - yes
Robes & slippers - can't recall
Hairdryer - pretty sure there was one....
mini frig - yes
wi fi - yes, free
space - plenty of space
restaurant - just the one, and 'international' buffet for dinner
Pool - large, but without personality
Fitness Center - yes... in those floors between 6 (the dining room) and 1 (sea access)
Spa - yes, though didn't see it

We had a nice conversation with a waiter on our last night and he steered us towards a nice wine and told us a little about his life and his time in the US. Some people might not appreciate hearing about his life, but we welcomed it. We thought it was interesting to hear a young person's perspective on things - and current events.

Great desk space to share - a nice feature, so that I don't have to wrestle for space with my honey

No drawers in those bedside tables....

View of the pool and the sea... the round building was supposed to rotate, but I wasn't aware of that happening

Dining room, game room, reading room, bar
