Seven Hills Palace & Spa

Very pretty and quaint boutique hotel overlooking the Marmara ocean. Expedia however showed pictures of a room (deluxe double, with a view) that I did NOT get. Upon my arrival I was quickly helped by very friendly staff, the room that I got had some stains on the carpet, and it smelled moldy, and I got allergies, I had to change rooms. The room I got was even smaller and didn't have a single ray of light. It was better, but it WAS NOT WHAT I PAID for. Expedia is the mediator, so the ad is misleading, not the hotel. The spa is beautiful, the girls were helping, and I was told it wasn't necessary to wear bathing suit, so I was in the sauna, and a gentleman from the staff who was really nice, brought me water 2 minutes later, but I was naked, and that made me feel very uncomfortable. Staff at the spa check on you many times, which also makes the guest feel like they're in a hurry or something, also bring tips, the whole environment implies tips even if your booking is "SPA AND SAUNA INCLUDED", one way or the other you will feel like you gotta do it. The breakfast was incredible, and the restaurant staff are friendly, speedy, smart, and treat you like a friend, I loved them, and I appreciate everyone in this hotel. While visiting, I had food poisoning from a restaurant, and the staff helped me with everything they could, and I forever thank them.

The property needs some renovations and facelift especially the rooms on the ground floor. Also, suggest adding a vending machine or a clean water drinking station in the lobby for guests as the tap water is not recommended for drinking. The breakfast buffet is amazing but I disagree with the start time of 8:00 a.m. on working days. Lastly, while the staff were friendly, their heavy and repetitive marketing of hotel-sponsored tours felt a bit overwhelming at times.

I loved it here! The location is fantastic. I had a great corner room with a sea view. Excellent breakfast buffet, friendly staff and great spa! I had my first Turkish hammam. At night there is loud music until around 10pm maybe even 11 but after that complete silence. I slept wonderfully!
