Top Demre Hotel Reviews

Adasya Hotel

Adasya Hotel

8/10 Good
"Overall great hotel especially for the price paid, but it is not a 5-star hotel. We got the room with sea view+garden. The view was great, but we didn't really use the swing in the garden. The TV and internet did not work for all 6 nights. The channels would simply show a black screen, and the internet clearly didn't reach our room. The last flaw with the room was the shower: the draining was very slow and we had to stop the water during our shower or else it would overflow. The ceiling showerhead would also spray water outside the shower because the glass door wasn't long enough. The bed was comfy and the mini-fridge worked well. Also, lots of hangers for clothes. In terms of service, we asked our TV and internet to be fixed multiple times and it never got done, so we got tired of asking. The service at the bar and breakfast was superb. The daily cleaning service was also great. The location of the hotel was amazing, as long as you had a car. Amazing views from all points of the hotel."
