Pelin Hotel - Turunc - Turkey

Spent a week in Turunc at the Hotel Pelin. The location was great, close to plenty of bars & restaurants & only a couple of hundred metres from the beach.

The hotel was nicely decorated with a grand staircase & it was very clean - spotless in fact. We had our room cleaned & towels changed pretty much every day! The staff were great: polite, friendly & genuinely could not do enough to help you & make your stay enjoyable. The pool - like the rest of the place - was very clean & there were always plenty of sunloungers to choose from (with & without shade). Despite the hotel being so close to the beach we actually chose to spend our days poolside as it was far more relaxing (although I’d recommend going for a swim in the sea at around 7pm).

The only thing the Pelin hotel was lacking in my opinion was a fridge in the room. After a day or evening out in the sun it would be nice to have a cold drink waiting in the room. I really can’t think of anything else negative about our stay as we had a wonderful week there. At a push I would say the breakfast wasn’t great as there wasn’t enough variety but it was all fresh produce - feta, tomatoes, eggs, bread etc. In a way though we were actually pleased about this because we didn’t feel like we should get up early every day to go & have it. We spent an extra couple of hours in bed & just went out for lunch instead.

Overall, if you want a cheap week to recharge the batteries then the Hotel Pelin is the place to do it. Thoroughly recommended!
