Alanya Sunway Hotel

We stayed from 16 to 22 July 2025, my wife, daughter and me. The people here, from the owner to reception, waiters and cleaners, were some of the warmest I've met in a long time. They have huge hearts. The location is amazing too, near Kale and Kleopatrabeach, close enough to walk there in a swimsuit if you like. I'd come back someday if I can.

A fantastic spot in Alanya, really close to the city centre, with lots of restaurants nearby and the beach just a minute away. The price is very cheap, and they serve a nice, generous breakfast. Mr.Mehmet is a good man who's been running this place for 45 years. He really loves his customers.

It's in a great spot, near the centre and beach, with ATMs close by and the cable car up to Alanya castle just off the hotel's main street. The alley setting keeps traffic noise down, and I didn't hear disturbance from bars, parties, or a nearby mosque. There's also a rooftop where you can relax or sunbathe on the loungers. Breakfast was fresh and hygienic, with eggs, vegetables, fruit, coffee and tea. I liked eating in the alley while the cute cats wandered past. The owner and staff are friendly, and the place has an easy, familiar feel. It's not a big or busy hotel, and many Scandinavian guests return as happy customers, including older visitors. The building dates from 1993 and is basic, but there is an elevator. The room doors aren't insulated, so hallway sounds carry, especially when people slam doors. The Wi-Fi isn't especially fast or strong, though it's okay. Rooms have a key-operated security box.

You're getting what you'd expect from a two-star place: a bed and a shower. Breakfast is modest, with tea, instant coffee, bread, vegetables, a boiled egg, watermelon and jam. The restaurant food is quite good and costs less than at many nearby places. The location is great, with the beach and the cable car to Alanya fortress about a minute away. What really stood out was how warmly I was received. The staff were genuinely kind, and the cleaning ladies were especially sweet. The receptionists and waiters were lovely too.
