Excellent hotel. Facilities were pristine and well maintained. Rooms were comfortable and cleaned daily. Our 12 year old son was ill for 2-3 days and reception staff and housekeepers were very understanding and helpful. Breakfast was included and had a number of options for kids and adults. Pool and bar were very relaxing and friendly. All the staff were excellent but Eyup on reception was exceptional, I have never dealt with someone so friendly and willing to help while on holiday. Overall we had a fantastic time here and would highly recommend this hotel if staying in Dalyan.
We have just enjoyed a lovely 8 nights at the Portakal, which I located on the edge of the Dalyan river … so scenic and tranquil. The hotel is beautiful, and the staff go above and beyond to help. Our room was clean and spacious. Plenty of space around the pool and a lovely relaxing garden just across the road overlooking the river. Great selection at breakfast time and a menu offering variety at lunch time too. We also enjoyed some live music around the pool and bar one evening which was fun.
My only criticism is that I found it really disappointing that upon requesting a ground floor room after booking, we were informed that this would come at an additional cost. We travelled with an 8 month old baby and had to carry her pram and multiple bags up and down the stairs multiple times a day which was not ideal. I feel that families shouldn’t be expected to pay extra to have a more accessible stay.
Cannot fault this Hotel all the staff were friendly, Hotel was clean and comfortable, plenty of Sunbeds and a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Definitely one to visit again.
My wife found this hotel on the internet.We stayed for 3 days at this hotel.We enjoyed there and we liked so much (room,swimming pool,breakfast,meals,beverages etc.) Especially our room was so clean.Hotel's owner and staff are very kindly.Thanks so much Ramazan,Eyüp and all of Portakal Hotel's staff..
Friendly attentive staff and a lovely, peaceful hotel. Our room was cleaned daily and was always fresh. Ideal location right on the river and only a short walk into town. Would highly recommend to everyone.
