Arbatt Marmaris Hotel

“ARBATT HOTEL Iclemer dont go expecting Brit food, embrace your inner Turk !”

Loved the food, choice was amazing the attention to hygiene checks were better than I've seen at home in restuarants and hotels. Everyone was smartly dressed and the pool area clean.

Loved the food, choice was amazing the attention to hygiene checks were better than I've seen at home in restuarants and hotels. Everyone was smartly dressed and the pool area clean. Most spoke English and were super helpful. If you dont like tasty healthy food or Turkish food stay away this hotel is not for you. Spirits and beer served are local. Perfectly located for everywhere in Iclemer. The only down side was houskeeping it was a bit hit and miss. Not a massive issue for me. Pool a little small again not a problem I prefer the sea. Loved my stay there!

“Relatively decent but don’t expect lots”

Very last minute all inclusive booked at the Arbatt, no idea what to expect some of the reviews were a bit iffy but you never know. The location is spot on, just off the beach short 5min walk if that. Atmosphere… hhhmmmmm the staff tbf are decent, most speak a good level of English which helps.… Más

Very last minute all inclusive booked at the Arbatt, no idea what to expect some of the reviews were a bit iffy but you never know. The location is spot on, just off the beach short 5min walk if that. Atmosphere… hhhmmmmm the staff tbf are decent, most speak a good level of English which helps. The pool is a nice area to chill out (the sun goes behind the building at 3pm and you can go to the pool out the back) beers, cocktails at the poolside bar aren’t too bad. Every now and again the bar staff go for a wander and take a while to come back. Entertainment is just music by the pool.. sometimes it’s on, sometimes not.. cats? There’s a couple that frequent the poolside… very friendly though. Food - ok, if you’ve got kids with you that are fussy you’re in trouble.. breakfast isn’t particular popular, fresh fruit etc but don’t expect sausage, bacon, mushrooms… eggs yes, pancakes yes, but you’re going to be disappointed. Lunch and dinner was marginally better… will attach pics. But again if you’ve got fussy eaters there’s no pizza or nuggets etc… the kofta kebabs were nice though and the salad bar well stocked with different salad and traditional Turkish sides. Deserts are decent though.. mid afternoon snacks in the side rooms aren’t really snacks.. it’s burgers (which was quite nice) and chips. All inclusive drinks finish at 10:30pm too which isn’t ideal that said the local bars for beer are ridiculously cheap Rooms - hhhmmmm ok so I will be honest, the bathroom in my room was dated and could do with an upgrade, the bed was comfy, TV had to search for bbc and it was just the news so don’t expect loads of channels to choose from. The lighting and electrics work off the door lock which is unique… the view isn’t too bad from the poolside rooms. The hotel is rated as 4 stars but it’s not… it’s 3 at best. As I say, don’t have high expectations, it’s cheap and there’s a reason for that. As I say, staff are friendly, no issues there.. you will find yourself eating out a fair bit. Holiday makers - I travelled as a solo traveller and wasn’t sure what to expect, you can’t not talk to people, the holiday makers will make it for you.. the conversations and banter was superb. The local area? Mint… there’s bars everywhere, restaurants everywhere. I spent most of my nights in the Cheers Bar which was absolutely nuts.. the lads working the customers work their socks off to make sure you have a good time.. load of dancing etc… World Cup was on which helps… child friendly as well which will always help. The beach area has free beds most of the way along, lovely touch that… cocktails are pricey though in the bars. Ended up buying a bigger suitcase as there are some real decent bag shops and clothes shops. Back to the hotel, as I say, don’t have great expectations, it’s does what it says but could be so much better if spruced up. Would I go back? To Icmeler yes, but probably elsewhere. If you’re on a budget though and just want a base then fill your boots

“3 day break but won’t be back”

We stayed here recently for a short break. The room was quite small but very tidy, and it had everything we needed for a comfortable place to sleep.

We stayed here recently for a short break. The room was quite small but very tidy, and it had everything we needed for a comfortable place to sleep. The location is definitely the best part — it’s fantastic! Just a short walk to the beach and local shops, and only a quick bus ride into Marmaris itself. On arrival, the atmosphere was a bit unusual — it felt a bit like a scene from EastEnders, as there was a family visiting whose son had just been asked to leave the premises. Aside from that moment, our time there was fine. The food was decent too; there was plenty of choice and we never struggled to find something we enjoyed. Just bear in mind there is no entertainment on site at all. Overall, this is great value for money if you’re looking for an affordable holiday and just need somewhere clean and convenient to rest your head. It’s not fancy, but it does exactly what it says on the tin.
