Side Royal Palace Hotel & Spa - All Inclusive

There’s a free shuttle to the beach, and the location is quiet but still close to shops and a pharmacy. Our daughter especially liked the desserts and ice cream. The food was fresh and tasty, with meat, fish, vegetarian dishes, and salads to choose from. The hotel is modern, stylish, and clean, with comfortable, well-designed rooms and friendly staff at reception, in the restaurant, and in housekeeping. It was handy to have an in-house hairdresser and access to the sister hotel next door. The small indoor pool was nice in cooler weather, but the outdoor pool was too cold for us this time of year. The place felt calm and relaxing, with mostly older guests and light evening entertainment. We had a very pleasant stay and recommend it.

There was plenty to eat at every turn, from breakfast and snacks to lunch and dinner. The selection included fresh fruit, salads, local specialties, and international dishes, and we never went hungry or thirsty, even at the beach bar. The rooms were spacious, spotless, and modern, with all the amenities we needed and more. The staff and management were highly professional and helpful, and everything ran smoothly, from reception to room service. Side Royal Style blends modern design with warm Turkish hospitality. It was an ideal choice for our family vacation in Side, with a nice location and high-quality service. We’d definitely come back. A perfect family holiday, 10/10.

I left money on the bedroom shelf in the morning, and it was gone when I returned. Maybe the housekeeper thought it was a tip, but it wasn’t. I told reception what had happened, and they did nothing. I never got the money back. Keep everything in the safe if you don’t want the same thing to happen to you.

The restaurant had a good range of fresh, tasty food, including fruit and pastries. Staff regularly came by with coffee, tea, soft drinks, or beer, and the fries were always hot and crispy. Drinks were plentiful too, from classics to more elaborate cocktails, with staff on hand to take orders and clear glasses. Our room faced the street but was quiet, fresh, cozy, and modern, with a spacious rooftop terrace. The minibar was restocked daily with water, soft drinks, and beer. Housekeeping was excellent, keeping the rooms and public spaces, including restrooms, clean. Both swimming pools were available to us because Side Royal Style and Side Royal Palace are part of the same chain. The Royal Style pool was peaceful, without crowds or loud music, while most entertainment was at the Royal Palace pool. Evening shows at the arena across from the pool brought a lively atmosphere. A shuttle left every 10 to 15 minutes from the Side Royal Palace entrance to the beach club, where we could also enjoy an extensive lunch. Both hotels looked like palaces, and we especially liked the interior at Side Royal Style. The lobby air conditioning could have been stronger, as it was sometimes a little warm. The hotel was modern, tastefully decorated, and spotless, with great attention to detail. Staff were friendly and helpful, and spoke excellent English and German. Our stay met expectations and was among the best hotel experiences we’ve had. We had a wonderful time, and might return next year. The luxury and service live up to the five-star rating.
