Alice Hotel Antalya in Lara

⭐ Honest Review: Great Rooms, Good Staff — but Shockingly Poor Breakfast for a “4-Star” Hotel

I stayed at this hotel for one night, and while I initially felt I had made a great decision, the experience quickly changed the next morning.

The positives:

The hotel is tucked behind a small shopping plaza, and the rooms themselves are genuinely impressive — clean, modern, and comfortable. The reception staff were excellent: polite, helpful, and truly accommodating. They deserve 5 stars on their own.

The major issue — the breakfast.

For a hotel advertising itself as 4-star, the breakfast was unbelievably disappointing. There was only a tiny table with very limited options, and the situation got worse from there. By 9 AM — well within the 8–10 AM breakfast time — they had run out of eggs, chips, and other essential breakfast items. When we asked, we were casually told there was no more food, despite the hotel not being busy at all.

Guests who came after us were left with almost nothing except salad. No juice, no breakfast drinks — just water. Even coffee wasn’t complimentary; you had to pay extra, which is shocking for a hotel claiming to be 4-star.

The entire breakfast setup felt more like a 2-star budget hotel, and it completely ruined what could have been a great stay.

Final verdict:

Beautiful rooms and excellent staff, but the breakfast experience was so poor that I would not recommend staying here unless they seriously improve their food service. As a family, we were relieved it was only a one-night stay. Until the breakfast is upgraded to true 4-star standards, we will not return to Alice Hotel.

We arrived at night.
The staff at the reception desk only told us which floor we needed to be on and what time we could go to breakfast.
Once in the room, we saw that they had converted a sofa into a bed, a single bed, and a double bed. We were supposed to get two rooms (a family room), but this wasn't the case. The room was supposed to have a sea view, but we were looking at the back of the building, so this wasn't the case either.
The room was clean. It had probably been recently renovated, because the bathroom floor was covered in broken tiles.
The showerhead made an incredible noise while showering. This was unbearable, so we didn't all shower that morning.
Breakfast was supposed to be served in the morning, and it was included in the price. However, there was practically nothing. When I asked for white bread, I was told it was out of bread, even though we were downstairs well in advance for breakfast. Everything was replenished very late, and I have to say the variety was very limited.
In short, a shame!

We stayed here as a family for a relaxing night on our travel itinerary. It's in a great location, but the breakfast was very poor. We couldn't sleep at night because of the constant door slamming and the shouting and laughter of the guests in the adjacent room. A value-for-money hotel.
