Reviews
Tthe hotel seems more catered for German/Dutch tourists as all signs did not have English but would definitely have German, quite a few of the animation team could only speak Turkey or German, no good for my kids, they decided they didn’t wanna attend most things. The hotel itself is very clean and the staff are very friendly, the buffet choice is good and they had theme nights each night. We only stayed for 6 nights and that was enough, if we stayed longer, I would have been tired of the food choices by then and even though we got a taxi out to Manavgat which only takes about 20mins, there was no nice restaurants there either but the Green Lake in the centre is beautiful. Their shopping malls/outlets are just loaded with fake branded goods so if that is what you like, then it’s for you.
I did have the most amazing spa experience in the hotel which for approx £88 for nearly 2hrs was value for money. Their massages and scrub were great, but if you don’t like males conducting the massages and scrubs then you will need to let them know as majority of them were male. Hair braiding is a big thing here but DO NOT get it done in the hotel, they wanted to charge my 9yr old 50 euros for half her head and it only cost 25euros across the road.
The food are 10/7.
The activities and the pools are great.
Overall, we were extremely happy with our stay at Club Grand Side and though there are probably many other, more luxurious hotels with huge aquaparks on the premises, we will strongly consider Club Grand Side for our next stay in the area as it is a perfect choice for a family vacation.
However, I encountered several negative experiences with the rest of the hotel staff. Unfortunately, many team members appeared disengaged and unapproachable, lacking the warm and attentive attitude that should be a hallmark of the hospitality sector. A polite tone and positive guest interaction—key elements in this industry—were noticeably absent in several interactions. In situations where guest guidance or communication was necessary, the response was often indifferent or entirely lacking.
What was particularly disappointing was the noticeably different behavior displayed towards Turkish guests. Compared to the attentiveness shown to international visitors, the overall approach towards local clientele seemed less considerate and lacking in hospitality, which directly impacted the overall satisfaction of our stay.
This inconsistency detracted from the overall quality of the experience. I strongly recommend a review of the hotel’s HR practices and staff training programs to align the service approach with guest satisfaction principles and brand expectations.
