Elementa Boutique Hotel - Adults Friendly

We stayed at Elementa Hotel in Bodrum as a group of 7 friends, occupying four rooms booked through Booking.com. Overall, we had a very enjoyable holiday. The hotel's biggest strengths are its excellent location and beautiful views. The swimming pool is very nice, and the breakfast area has a lovely atmosphere, making it a pleasant place to start the day. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially when we raised concerns about our room, and they made an effort to assist us. These positive aspects gave the hotel a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere and contributed to a pleasant stay. Thanks Mr Amin

The complimentary room upgrade offered through my Booking.com status was misleading. The "Superior Room" was actually smaller than the Deluxe Room we had originally booked. One of our friends declined the upgrade after seeing the room. I initially accepted it, assuming it would be better, but later realized it was significantly smaller. Although the hotel moved me to another room after I raised the issue, it was still smaller than the Deluxe Room and did not feel like an upgrade. The rooms are outdated and would benefit from renovation, particularly the bathrooms, which are very small and need modernisation. The blackout curtains do not block enough sunlight, so the room becomes very bright early in the morning, making it difficult to sleep. The pillows are unusually large and uncomfortable, and the air conditioning unit is positioned directly above the bed. In summer, you either sleep in a hot room or have cold air blowing directly onto your body throughout the night. The breakfast coffee policy was disappointing. Breakfast is included, but only Turkish tea and Turkish coffee are complimentary. Even a basic American coffee is charged as an extra. Charging separately for a simple breakfast coffee feels unreasonable. Guests should also be aware that the hotel has no elevator. There are no rooms at ground level, and reaching even the first level requires climbing around 20–25 steps, with many rooms requiring even more stairs. This can be challenging for guests with mobility issues, knee problems, or heavy luggage.

Incredibly helpful Beautiful rooms and hotel Amazing sunset Good breakfast

I liked everything

Overall, we had a pleasant stay. The pool was beautiful, very quiet, and one of the highlights of the hotel. The food from the pool menu was great, and most of the staff spoke both English and Turkish, which made communication easy. They were also very helpful in arranging a taxi for us every time we wanted to go out. The rooms include a Nespresso machine with complimentary capsules for the first night, but additional capsules cost around $5 for a pack of three. There’s also a supermarket nearby that you can easily walk to.

LA few things to note: there are no elevators, so be prepared to use the stairs. The breakfast selection was quite limited, although I’m not sure if that was because it was the beginning of the season or if that’s the usual offering.

Good location Good value for money

1. Breakfast sucks, orange juice was spoiled and there are literally ZERO options. 2. Room was totally different than the pictures 3. When we were checking out the receptionist was so rude and unprofessional he claimed we took 4 water bottles and we only took 2, when we told him he kept acting as if we’re lying and claimed that they have a system that tracks when in reality they were trying just to charge us more and then it turned out we were right that we took only 2 bottles and kept acting weird that we were frustrated as if nothing happened
