This is a wonderful hotel, it is clean and comfortable, the staff are friendly and helpful and the food is delicious. We are having a fabulous holiday here, I would highly recommend it here

21.10.2025 Guest

The Selenium is a lovely hotel, clean room, maids very attentive and friendly, staff in the bar and restaurant area are great. The all inclusive drinks were as expected, the local Effes lager is nice and chilled, cocktails could be purchased on request. Water available in the restaurant, we filled our bottles up from the tank. Although, you could purchase a bottle for 1 Euro. Pool area very clean, staff are constantly cleaning and sweeping to ensure it is spotless. No big complaints about the food, always sonething to eat, however, they need a microwave, the chips were cold at every mealtime.... This was brought up with the restaurant manager, however, it wasn't resolved during our stay. We would definitely visit again, fingers crossed by then, we get hot chips and/or a microwave 🤞🤞🤞🔥 Very friendly staff... although there were no English visitors on our visit, that didn't matter, we made new German and Dutch friends. Good location to walk to the beach, few bars around too... there is a bus every morning to the beach..... overall a lovely time spent at the Selenium! Ignore negative reviews 👌🤗

This hotel is absolutely awful. When we arrived at 1 am the receptionist had no paperwork for us going over and over the same thing he then proceded to check two other people in meanwhile my daughter found the paperwork. The staff were ignorant all week and never spoke once we felt really unwanted there. The food was awful.we were half board and only ate here twice absolutely no idea what food was what and what was left over in the evening you got for breakfast. There is no restaurant you have to sit round the pool with thr smell of dirty drains. There is no entertainment like it advertises. Completely ruined our holiday staying here.

Stayed for 6 days at the hotel. I booked the half board option. My room was the standard room, with two single beds. Room was comfortable enough, with a balcony and chairs overlooking the pool. Weather was very good, daily temperature around 22°C. The hotel is about 6 minutes walk to the beach, but I think there is a shuttle service. In Side, there are lots of shops, restaurants and banks. The shops and restaurants prefer you pay in Euros. There are plenty of excursions you can try like the boat cruises. There is also a local mosque 100 metres from the hotel. WiFi is free, but can be intermittent. The meals are all well cooked and will fill you up, but they are a repetitive, a little variety would have been good. Turkey is meant to be famous for for it's grilled meat, but I don't recall anything offered in the buffet. I would definitely bring your own towels and shower gel. The staff are all friendly and helpful. Transfer from Antalya airport can take over 90 minutes, depending on how many different hotels the driver has to pick up from.

We already had a negative experience upon arrival, as they wanted to transfer us to another hotel, saying that there were no available rooms. We didn't go into this and still got a room. The wording of free WiFi is a trick, because it was useless. Their beach is below par, crowded, with poor quality beds. During the supply, the remainder was always found, monotonous, with no variety. As for fruit, only melons and apples were available. The sweetness is always the same, a soaked sponge cake and pudding in bulk. What is absolutely infuriating is that on a weekday the bread was from the previous day. Smoking is allowed in the restaurant, so we had to eat with children in the smoke. The cold cuts, which were 1-2 types, were browned at the edges and tasteless. The elevator was not working. Children worked in the eye clinic, they were tired, but they worked. They were driven by the older gentleman, who did not spare the guests with his manners either. I am satisfied with the cleanliness and cleaning of the room. It was impossible not to hear the mosque's morning prayers. Overall, I would not recommend this hotel to anyone!!!

Average place, rooms are not very conformable, pretty small for 2 people. Hotel has 2 beaches, one is small but close, another one is very far, but spacious. Free shuttle takes to the beach in the morning 3 times and back only around 5 pm, which is not very convenient. You have to spend there the whole day which leads to sunburn. Also you can't get to the hotel for lunch.
There are 2 pools in the hotel.
Stuff is friendly

Wonderful hotel. I was there already a sevarel times. You want to come back. It deels like family.

21.08.2022 Hannah

We've not checked out yet and I'm already writing this review. We booked this hotel due to its location near Side and the beaches, but I would recommend you give this hotel a miss. For a "wellness" hotel with concierge service, we were not informed about any of the facilities available, apart from a hurried timetable for meal times and the beach shuttle. This was after they couldn't find our booking for ages, despite having it in front of me. We were also woken at 8am on our first day by a phone call from "our rep" from a travel agent we'd never heard of or booked through, and again bothered by a brochure at our door when we didn't attend the meeting.
Food here is average at best, WiFi never connects - even downstairs, overcrowded pool with broken sunbeds, air con remote works on and off, shower does not connect to the wall, and over friendly staff - imagine being asked if you're "staying here alone" before your morning coffee. Judging by other reviews, this is not a safe place for single women!

Good staff, but we had to stay at another hotel on the first day. When it came to paying for drinks (after 11pm, at the beach bar or checkout for example) they were very fussy, which I didn't like. Also the check in - out times should be revised. Nevertheless a clean hotel with 10 minutes walk to the beach.

In the city of Side a bag with clothes was stolen from us. Otherwise nice people
