Golden Age Hotel Bodrum★★★★

✓Total Bliss – Didn’t Want to Leave!” “My partner and I came here for a little getaway, and wow, it was exactly what we needed. The pool area was so chill and relaxing, and the spa treatment I got was just-heavenly. Honestly, every single person working there seemed genuinely happy to help – they really went the extra mile to make us feel pampered. Little touches, . We’re already daydreaming about our next visit. Truly a wonderful escape.”

✓A Complete Disappointment! An Hotel to Avoid at All Costs I never expected to encounter such terrible service. Let me start with the rooms — they are in a nightmarish state. Dirt everywhere: layers of dust, dirty plumbing fixtures, strange stains in the corners. Cleaning is just a joke. During my 7-day stay, they never properly mopped the floors. They change towels formally, but they are still dirty and grimy. The bed linen is beyond unacceptable — yellow stains, pills, the feeling that they just rinsed it in water without proper washing. Towels are the same — gray, with stains, unpleasant to even touch. The staff at the reception is a whole different story. Rudeness and complete disregard for guests. They react to requests with displeasure, as if you are distracting them from important matters. Once I asked to replace a dirty towel, and they were rude to me in response! The food is a complete disaster. The meals are tasteless, bland, monotonous. The same dishes every day, no variety. The restaurant has dirty dishes, waiters are in no hurry to clear the tables. I do not recommend this hotel to anyone! For such money, you can find a place that is much better. Here you will only ruin your vacation. Rating: 1 out of 5. Run away from here as fast as you can!

✓I've never left a bad hotel review and always take cheap all inclusive holidays as I find them, cheap and cheerful. This however was a whole different experience! Word of the Holiday was "Finished".... what this meant is that everything you hoped to get was finished as they basically were closing for the season around us! Day 1 - We asked where the entertainment schedule was..... "Sorry, entertainment Finished" Although the entertainment staff kept themselves busy, mainly serving drinks to underage girls and flirting with them! "Coffee Finished" "Beach Bar Finished" Day 2 - No butter for the bread.... "Butter Finished" Day 2 - Could I have a Raki please "No Raki, Raki Finiashed" The bar had Gin, Vodka and one Beer, that was it for 10 days, no other choice of spirits at all. You're getting the picture here! As the week went on the basically started packing up around us. Sunloungers getting carted off, cushions for sesting getting packed away, tables and chairs disappeared around us as we ate! Well I say as we ate, we didn't eat much as they stopped cooking on about day 5 of our 10 day trip and just kept putting out the exact same food...... on day 8 they gave up heating it up at all! Now I fully accept it was end of season but this was ridiculous! This culminated in us sat at the pool on our last day, we weren't leaving until 7pm........ "Drinks Finished, food Finished, staff Finished" They offered us nothing at all to eat or drink, they just said "Finished". The staff even joked that they were happy to be getting out of the place, happy to never return. And so it came that we spent a full day of our holiday, sat by the pool on the last 8 sunloungers still available, eating crisps and drinking cold cand of beer from the shop down the road! Everything else had gone! I hate complaining, it's just not British but this experience was dire, the absolute worst holiday I've ever had. That said, I love the area, rooms were acceptable and the beach was OK.

✓I stayed here for 11 days with my family and partner this included my sisters young children as well. On a whole I would say this hotel was not worth the money, from what I gathered as we went at the end of the season the hotel workers had given up this is not okay as we all payed an all inclusive price and we was not getting what we payed for! On arrival there was helpful people at reception very friendly and helpful they took our bags to our room however didn’t speak much English at all so communication was difficult, my sisters family and my parents rooms were very nice and big with very good balcony and nice views however work was needed to be done to both rooms which was a health and safety concern. However mine and my partners room was disappointing it was fairly small and it smelt very bad our view was about 50 bin bags full of rubbish I’m aware I didn’t pay for a sea view but I did not expect rubbish for my view. The landscape of the hotel grounds was very pretty and did have the holiday vibe but the lack of entertainment really let it down the music they played throughout the day and evening was all Turkish it was hard to make your own fun when you don’t even know any of the songs being played. When it came to food and drink it was a big let down none of the staff new how to make a cocktail when you asked for one it was random things put in a cup that tasted awful, the only alcoholic drinks available was gin and vodka. The food was clearly reused day after day sometime what was served for dinner would then be served for breakfast the next morning there was little food that looked appealing we mostly lived of bread yet there was never any butter. If you are looking at coming here and have children their safety in the pool will not be considered as the life guards was flipping into the pool and messing around with the animation team not paying attention at all to those in the pool. The water slides was one of the best things in this hotel my family had lots of fun on these as well as in the sea.Some bars that are meant to be open was all closed on the complex my family was one of the only English ones there and the hotel was dead most days. Outside the hotel is a supermarket which was useful as we ended up buying food from there most days and nights however there is not my souvenirs on offer at all even in the shop in the hotel thinhs was very limited. There was water sports on site on the beach however the prices was extortionate. I believe this hotel could have so much potential if the food was better and it actually had entertainment weather it’s the end of the season or not they should not be false advertising what’s on offer. I was disappointed with my stay here as well as my family I don’t think I see one maid working my room was cleaning once to a very low standard and I got given no clean towels my sister who had a baby didn’t get her room cleaned even after complaining it still took a very long time so she ended up having to empty her own bins. Our stay was poor and I wouldn’t recommend staying here especially at the end of a season other family’s we see was also unsatisfied with their stay. However my family looked on the positive side and we made our own fun. I will attach some photos of the nice moments we had
