  The Royal Dragon Hotel - Side Antalya - Outstanding

  25 Mar 2026

  My wife and I travelled to the Royal Dragon Hotel in Side - Antalya - (from Aberdeen, Scotland) for three weeks of holidays.....and what a fantastic holiday 😄. The hotel was outstanding in terms of location (for the beach), and the local shops surrounding the Hotel. The accommodation was excellent, with the overall hotel being spotless and clean, and the room was freshened everyone day with linen, towels and sundries, and the minibar was replenished daily. The amenities within the Hotel were superb, with leisure facilities and bars, and the table tennis table was a fabulous addition to our afternoon poolside exercise. Saunas, steam room and hamam we're super hot 🔥 too. The soft and alcoholic drinks were aplenty, and staff were humble, gracious to super friendly. 24 hour service :-)The food, absolutely wonderful, and the presentation of dishes were of the highest order. We would highly recommend this particular hotel - The Royal Dragon Hotel - in this fantastic seaside resort, for families, individuals and for couples.Five stars out of five from us :-) and All inclusive was a must have for the best holiday.

  Almost perfect holiday

  09 Sept 2025

  If you are familiar with Royal/Stone Group hotels in Antalya Region, you should only know that Royal Dragon is probably the best now. Really well renovated an year ago, rooms are spacious, beds are super comfortable. The best part: beautiful large sandy beach with comfortable entry in the sea - perfect for kids. Well, kids won't be happy that luna park's gone but for their parents it provides a leisurely dinner :) Aqua park is really good and the pools are wonderful. Food is also great, fresh and tasty, with lots of choices. Late breakfast is almost as rich as the early one. Not a problem finding a table in the evenings. Well, if you prefer to stay at the pools have to reserve sunbeds early in the morning, as usual. Not such problem at the beach. Staff is good, but should mention that people in Royal Holiday Pallace /last year stayed there/ were definitely friendlier and speaking better English. Dragon is German oriented and if you don't speak German some misunderstandings are possible. Nothing interesting about the evening shows and daily animation, but I prefer peaceful places and this hotel is such a place. Lots of shops just in front of the hotel. There was only one inconvenience - early closing of the towel desk (Not all the guest go to dinner at 19:00, some stay at the beach a bit longer).Overall: Really good choice for summer holiday. Very good service.

  Fantastic week away

  25 Aug 2025

  Fantastic hotel perfect for families, food was brilliant all week, on arrival I asked about price of room upgrade and the brilliant reception staff and manager offered this free of charge! Ignore the negatives, yes there aren’t many English families here but everyone is friendly, great location also will book again!

  Ignore the negative reviews!

  15 Aug 2025

  We travelled as a family of 4 with myself, my husband and my 2 teenage daughters (17 & 15). Having been to Turkey several times in hotels like Aska Lara, Sherwood Dreams, Baia Lara and Limak Atlantis meant we were typically used to a high standard, however had not been to the Side area before this. Before we arrived, not going to lie we were very concerned after seeing many negative reviews regarding this hotel but we can honestly say we had an excellent time and can't understand what everybody is complaining about! We would say the hotel was predominantly 80% German guests but this did not affect our stay at all. Although towards the back end of the holiday more English guests seemed to be arriving which was nice! Despite this, all of the staff we encountered could speak English and were always so so helpful. Arriving at around 4am after a long journey we were generally tired but we were pleasantly welcomed by reception and the bellboy, who swiftly took our suitcases upstairs. They also offered us a chance to grab some food at the midnight restaurant if you wanted but we were that tired we just went straight up to bed. We had a family interconnecting room which consisted of 2 large rooms with a double and 2 singles. The balcony was small but still had enough room to fit a couple of chairs and a table in, however this didn't bother us at all. Due to our room type, it meant that we were unable to get a full sea view but I requested via email beforehand to have some sort of view, and we were granted a side sea view where you could also see the pool clearly. The beds were the comfiest I've ever slept in at a hotel and the aircon was perfect, especially with the heat being around 45 degrees on some days it came in handy (some nights even became to cold). Lovely walk in shower, very modern! The food in the main restaurant was brilliant, with so much variety. They had themed nights so different foods each night, but always had your basics like pasta, chips, burgers, salads, etc. We never had a problem finding a seat at the night time, we often came down at 8pm and this was never a problem but not sure what earlier would be like for getting a table. Big shout out to Tahir who was so helpful and friendly to us, making our stay even more enjoyable. A little tip goes a long way. Not really big breakfast eaters but for what we usually eat it was plentiful, cereals, yoghurts, toast, pancakes, doughnuts, even onion rings! For lunch, we never went to the main restaurant because the pool bar had everything we needed. A selection of KFC type chicken, pizzas, chips, kebab wraps (the man at the kebab stall was lovely and always willing to chat), fruit, crepes, pancakes, ice cream. Slushes and ice coffees were nice at the aqua bar, should definitely try. Pool was massive and stretched from the hotel down to the beach, with loads of bridges overhead to make it easier to get across to places instead of walking around. There were stairs dotted all around from top to bottom so you could get out of the pool from nearly any point. There weren't any lifeguards about though, so if you were to have younger children just keep an incredibly close eye on them. There was no "deep" end in the pool and so it was all the same depth. Pool was constantly cleaned through the night time. The shopkeeper on the bottom floor pumps up your inflatables free of charge to. There were pool activities going on through the day and the animation team don't pester you at all which we preferred, but if you wanted to participate you knew where they were. Music around the pool was always good as well, even my daughters enjoyed it.The entertainment at night was honestly one of the best, enjoyed every single show that was on. The ampitheatre tended to get very full (no surprise) but we always managed to find somewhere to sit even when arriving at around 9:45. After the main show had finished they always had live music at the beach bar, or a DJ depending on the night. Live music always finished at midnight but we ended up sitting around for a bit afterwards. The white party on the Wednesday night was brilliant. Played so many English songs and was inclusive for everyone.The beach was busy but whenever we ventured down we managed to get a bed. The sea was warm - so nice. However, the sand was absolutely boiling so beware. If you fancy a day trip out to the Old Town it's well worth a visit, lovely walk with some beautiful views of the harbour area and lots of bars and restaurants around, including Irish bars. The ancient ruins are nice to see but can be a steep walk, especially in the heat. Overall, a lovely stay and would probably return again! IGNORE THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS. I'm sure you will have a lovely stay!
