Divan Bodrum Palmira

Professional

Nothing

Divan Palmira was the best choice for the period I visited Golturkbuku. In mid May basically it's a desert town. Divan being located in the middle of the district, it has more life than the other options. Honestly I can't understand how Elista, Mavi Suit and many other hotels were open for booking. When I was there I saw they were undergoing major refurbishments. So I am glad I chose Divan. My stay was excellent thanks to the wonderful staff of the hotel. Every single person I encountered was skilful, respectful and professional. I felt I was surrounded by an amazing staff. The food is the other outstanding asset of the hotel. Very delicious meal options in the menu and their breakfast buffet has large variety of healthy options. I would select Divan every single time with confidence.

Only thing I may slightly complain about is; only after I completed the booking I was informed about the spa and gym being closed due to refurbishment. I was planing on booking treatments and hitting the gym. Though this was not a show stopper at this time, in general it would be good to know in advance.

The rooms but especially the very friendly staff

Great location, very central. Good beach, breakfast. Good, helpful staff in reception. They even brought me water when I was playing tennis. Handled all my print outs.

Very slow and poor service at the beach. The staff is tired or slow there. They served hamburger without ketchup :) saying it's finished. They start dinner in the left side of the beach and close it around evening time. We were on the right side and they asked us to leave. That didn't seem hospitable. I think it's mostly poor management issue instead of staff. The prices don't really justify the sub-standard experience.
