Elista Hotel & Spa

I had a truly wonderful stay at Elista Spa Hotel! ✨The rooms were spotless, the breakfast was both delicious and thoughtfully prepared ??But what really made the difference was the incredibly kind and attentive staff — they made me feel genuinely cared for ?Thank you to the whole team for making my stay so special. I’d definitely come back again! ?

Great location, good breakfast and good beach/sea area for guests.

The spa sauna was never on and had to be heated in advance if you wanted to use it. And there were no towels in the spa area. It was also loud in the evening.

The property is centrally located in Türkbükü. Beautiful and clean hotel. Staff is wonderful. Sun deck is great for getting a tan and watching boats pass by. Breakfast was included and delicious.

Perfect location for us—beautiful surroundings, close to the water, walkable promenade, beach bar with recliner chairs and access to the water. The hotel itself is laid out sensibly. Bedroom with a nice view. Beds comfortable. Outdoor pool was nice for a more private swim (than the dock). Staff was unbelievably helpful. Bayram in particular, helped us schedule a taxi, exchange currency, provided instructions on how to get around—very helpful and welcoming. Breakfast was a sumptuous feast—generous portions of several different foods—fruits, pastries, eggs, cucumbers and tomatoes, bread and jams, delicious coffee or Turkish tea. With other relatives staying at nearby hotels, Elista is an elegant setting at a great price.

The facilities still look very good. There are a few areas where “wear and tear” are starting to show (paint fading or flaked). Note: there is no elevator in this hotel. If you have trouble with stairs (ours was a circular staircase), that might be a problem. That said, many properties in Europe lack an elevator

Great breakfast. Comfy beds. Great shower.

Super clean, amazing breakfast and the staff (medina and Azat) were absolutely incredible. Really went above and beyond for us!!

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was well presented, nutritious and plentiful. The location was superb. Access to sea swimming from the private deck was a great feature.

The air conditioning was not important to us at the time of year, but the controls were not easy to understand and we could have benefited from some written instructions had we needed to rely on it.

Excellent hotel right on the waterside with very friendly, helpful staff. Bayram was very welcoming and helpful, Madina

Welcoming staff .. very attentive and helpful .. great service .. blankets are to small on the beds .. lovely tasty breakfast …

A wonderful setting, amazing sun deck and access to sea and swimming. Perfect location for a nearby wedding. Would definitely return.Thank you to all the staff who made our stay so memorable.

In terms of location, food, the room, and cleanliness - our stay was as expected. We knew the room wasn’t going to be very big, but had weighed this up for the price against other more expensive options in the area. The general vibe of the hotel, including the private pier, was beautiful and calming. It wasn’t overcrowded and felt very relaxing lying out in the sun. All of the food we ate at Elista, including the complimentary breakfast, was really good quality and tasty (and some of the better food we ate along that coast - special mention here NOT to go to Miam which was inedible). Bodrum is an expensive holiday destination in general, so we struggled to find anything cheaper of that quality. Everything else was about £100 more a night.

Aside from the barman and the cleaner, who were friendly and went the extra mile, most of the staff weren’t very friendly, particularly the woman on reception who was rude and unhelpful. We felt like we were a hindrance to the staff. This was surprising, as most of the reviews we read before booking expressed how great the staff are at Elista. The room we booked said it had a garden view, but looked out onto a generator and a wall.

Nice pier, nice Turkish breakfast.

The staff at Elista are very rude and slow and their command of the English language is poor- non/ existent which was surprising for a hotel welcoming international guests. The rudest of all was the female receptionist who was extremely unhelpful, forgot to return our passports at check-in and laughed in our faces when we told her our room had not been cleaned. On that note, the hotel has only 1 cleaner so don’t expect your room to be cleaned until very late in the day. We were attending a wedding and needed to shower but did not have clean towels and when we asked the receptionist for these we were told that it was ‘not her job’.The hotel doesn’t provide an iron and instead sends your clothes to be pressed for 300 Lira per item - which is expensive for a crap 3 star hotel. We had to attend a wedding and needed a shirt ironed and were told it was not possible. I was ignored as I am a woman and it took my male partner to complain for the shirt to be sent to a local drycleaner to be pressed.The rooms are very small, dingy and the shower leaks all across the bathroom leading to a very wet floor. We were actually excited to go home as we could not stand being in the hotel room, even just to sleep. Whoever is running this place is making a killing - the price of the rooms should be £100 less per night than they are.

I recently stayed at Elista and had a fantastic experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making me feel welcome throughout my stay. The hotel was exceptionally clean, which I really appreciated. The location is also ideal, with easy access to everything I needed.

However, there were a few downsides that affected my stay. The noise level was a major issue, with the cleaning staff making a lot of noise while servicing the rooms, making it difficult to rest. Additionally, I was disturbed by the constant barking of dogs, which added to the overall noisiness.

The location was amazing! I loved it. The beach is right there and Main Street with all restaurants and stores was just out of the hotel.

On the port located

- The Deck on the Beach is stunning-Hotel situation, in the little center-Room number 322 in a calm area

-Rooms are small, but that is ok. The bed is not comfortable as well as the pillows.-Around the Rooms and Swimming pool area, few things could be upgraded, to make it look nicer-The breakfast is not Waow

The hotel was in a great location, with a taxi rank just a short walk away.

Swimming g pool out of action, breakfast was basic (orange juice extra) and they forgot to clean our room one day.

Location is great, breakfast is great. Very clean hotel. Particularly the staff is really nice. They are very helpful and kind people. I will definitely go again.
