  Disappointed

  13 Oct 2026

  Hotel was right in the middle of town so not far from shops, restaurants and bars.The housekeeping was very poor for the first 3 days there had been no room service until I went to reception and spoke to Tara who was incredibly helpful and the cleaner came, but even so all they did was empty the bins and made the bed, our balcony wasn’t swept or mopped for the 2 weeks we were there.The food in the restaurant was bland and tasteless, and the cakes were the same every meal time but just a different colour.Sun beds were plentiful as long as you got down early in the morning before everyone put their towels on them.All in all Turgutreis was a nice place for a holiday but I wouldn’t go back to the Solana.

  Relaxing holiday

  10 Oct 2026

  First time back since the room make-overs. They’re so much brighter at up to date, comfortable and clean, housekeeping were brilliant.This hotel has the ideal location for us, close to shops, bars, marina and the beach.Food is good and plenty to chose from and the restaurant and bar staff are amazing. Special thanks to Sebastian, and Baran in the bar/restaurant and to receptionist Tara for all your help. Looking forward to returning in the very near future.

  Best experience

  03 Oct 2026

  We had a fantastic experience at Solana By Yelken. The hotel atmosphere was pleasant and the staff were incredibly welcoming. Fiko deserves a special mention for his excellent service. He was always attentive and had a very positive attitude. Mr. Omer and Mr. Olcay were also wonderful F&B managers who were always friendly and professional. Thank you for a great stay!

  Hotel Yelken in September 2026

  01 Oct 2026

  Second half of the month, ground floor room. Free safe, Internet good.The location is excellent, the atmosphere is good, the room is renovated, the smell of chipboard is still felt, the complaint is the large entrance doors of the rooms, there are automatic closing devices that do not work properly, they are too strong and you have to "shake" so much to close them because all the doors are almost crooked because of the automatic devices. The corridors shake. Sleeping very badly because of it. The music is too loud, but the only consolation is that it turns off around 11 p.m., but guests who come later from a walk wake you up by banging on the door. The food is outstanding. The cleanliness is excellent. All in all, we are satisfied and I would recommend the owner to work on repairing the door and remove the automatics. They would probably come again, but because of the loud noise, it would be difficult. SOLANA BY YELKEN, Pazarlama at Solana by Yelken, responded to this review Dear Guest,Thank you for your detailed review and for praising our location, renovated rooms, excellent food, and cleanliness.We sincerely apologize for the noise disturbance caused by the room door closers. Your detailed feedback has been passed to our maintenance team for immediate adjustment and repair.We hope to welcome you back for an even better, more peaceful stay.Warm regards,Solana by Yelken Management

  We wouldn't return

  30 Sept 2026

  My honest opinion of this hotelSunbed wars! Although there are signs stating no sunbeds can be reserved by just gone 7am there are no free sunbeds, all have towels on them but not many people until late afternoon, we noticed people also reserved the beach sunbeds, so they had reserved sunbeds at both the beach and the pool, I reported this to reception 3 times but no action was taken The hotel in all areas including guest rooms appeared clean but on closer inspection were anything but clean, again reported to manager who called housekeeping for a deep clean, they attended our room but didn't clean it.The toilet in our bathroom was extremely low, 13" from floor to seat, average loo is 17" - 19", making it hard to stand once finished, the shower was filthy, speaking to other guests their rooms were clean so I guess we were unlucky with the cleaner allocated to our floorThe food was like warm at best, as most buffets the choice was not greatIf your holiday company states there's an a la carte restaurant there is notEntertainment was non existent The beds were comfortableNo chair in our room so only the bed to sit onHoliday booked for 2 adults but only 1 chair would fit on the balcony On the whole the staff were good, but be aware one waiter took my phone and posted a bogus review on here which I removed as soon as I saw it The main clientele in the hotel were Turkish & PolishWe booked a boat trip with the guys who came around the pool, Captain Jack, it wasn't good, the food offering was the worst I've ever had on a boat trip, they came around with ice creams, no mention that they were chargeable so we had 2 ice creams and 1 can of Sprite and were charged 800 tl which equates about £12 & change on top of the £30 each for the tripWould we go again to this hotel? Absolutely not! Turgutreis isn't very big so not a lot to do outside of the hotel although there were some nice restaurants Would we return? No
