Doria Hotel Bodrum-City Center

The location The room The staff Everything was brilliant for the money

We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. Everything was very clean, and the rooms were cleaned regularly and thoroughly. The staff were attentive and always tried to help and accommodate any requests. We also loved the beautiful view and the toiletries provided in the room. I especially liked the body lotion, shampoo, and conditioner — everything was of very good quality. Another big plus for us was the peaceful atmosphere. The hotel wasn’t overcrowded, so we could really relax by the pool or on the beach without too much noise or people around.

Overall, we really enjoyed our stay, so there wasn’t much that we didn’t like. The only thing I would improve is the breakfast. For a short stay, it’s absolutely fine, but since we stayed for more than a week, it started to feel a little repetitive. It would be nice to have a bit more variety and some simple options such as oatmeal, which was rarely available. I also expected the fruit to be a little better, especially the watermelon — in Turkey you usually expect it to be very sweet and flavorful, but here it was quite average and not always sweet. Another thing to keep in mind is that the hotel is located on a hillside, so getting down to the water involves a fairly steep walk, and of course you have to walk back up again. This is not really a criticism of the hotel, just something to be aware of. On the positive side, the hillside location gives you a beautiful view.

The hotel is clean, and the staff are friendly and welcoming. The best thing about this hotel is definitely the view—it is absolutely beautiful. I also liked the boutique-style design and overall atmosphere.

There is a shuttle service to the beach, which is convenient since the beach is not within walking distance. However, the beach café is extremely overpriced, and the food and drinks are much more expensive than expected. One thing to keep in mind is that the hotel itself has many stairs as part of its layout, so moving around the property can be a bit inconvenient. Also, the road leading up to the hotel is very steep, which can be a little intimidating. Overall, it was a good stay. If you are looking for a clean hotel with amazing views and friendly staff, this is a nice option.
