Hyde Bodrum

Location- Off a main road (like a mini motorway) with nothing around it. You have to take a taxi to get anywhere. BA holidays site said that it’s 1.1km from town centre- it would be an off road over a very steep hill through a forest to reach the town by foot. Hotel Aesthetic- The hotel is undeniably well furnished and the decor is very modern and stylish, comfortable seating and the sun beds are padded thick - not standard plastic ones. Room- Room was nice, bed was comfortable as were the pillows. It was cleaned everyday, fresh towels daily too. Mini bar refilled daily, as were the coffee pods. (You’ll need to ask for milk though, I got a carton from a bar and used that for the room) There is an occasional smell of sewage around the hotel. And when we’d had a shower our drains smelt a bit for a short period of time. Entertainment- Non existent in the day, if you’re expecting an animation team, there isn’t one. Nothing going on during the day round by the pool, they do have an “activities” board - but these are all fitness related activities based near the gym. There was a pizza making class, and a tiramisu making class - but no games as such.. they have a dj on at the beach bar in the day instead, but it’s basically a guy behind a desk playing music so loud you can’t talk when having food or drink in there :/ then there are 2 rotated DJ’s in the evenings. No themed nights as advertised. No live music or singers, or shows despite having an “amphitheatre” just one bar with a terrace (or much is also the coffee bar and patisserie area and reception area) there are many bars and restaurants listed (5 I believe) but they’re just little areas that are interchangeably used at different times of the day - don’t be fooled into thinking there are “5 bars” “5 restaurants” because there isn’t.. Food- Main buffet restaurant was ok in the mornings for breakfast, dreadful for lunch, most of the food was always cold dispute being under heat lamps. I would definitely recommend ordering off the qr codes by the pool snack bar, or the beach snack bar, as these are at least brought to you hot (ish) but as for dinner… well, it is the same each night; and each same section is very small - it is very repetitive and is more traditional food than international food, if you have picky eaters you’ll be hard pushed here.:. We aren’t picky, everything tasted nice - we just didn’t either know what it was, or it was cold. Didn’t have ONE hot dish all week, despite it being under “heat lamps”. Bungalow bar- food (pool snack place) was cooked to order so if you want something warm go here, but it closes at 5:30 Beach bar- when we are in there for lunch the food was also nice, cooked to order so it was hot, but due to the volume level on the DJ we couldn’t actually hear each other.. Pool: The pool area is nice, comfortable sun loungers. The QR codes are in every parasol to order drinks to your sunbed which is great. Staff are great, and bring the drinks to you quickly We have been to Türkiye in October before, so we are aware the pools are usually pretty cold but the BA holidays listing stated that there was a heated pool- the pool isn’t heated and was FREEZING! There is no shop onsite either; so it’s a £25 round trip into bodrum town if you want to get snacks like crisps etc for round the pool/in the room. It’s £10 to taxi to old town and £15 back - longer on way back due to the motor way road, they have to go passed the hotel to get to the intersection where they can turn to come back and in.

Having just returned from a week staying at The Hyde Bodrum and can highly recommend this hotel. From check in where everything was explained really well. A thank you to the reception staff as I had read previous reviews that had said they were rude and didn’t explain things well which couldn’t be further from the truth in my experience (apologies I didn’t remember their names but the red head lady and the young gentleman from North Turkey where both very friendly and helpful) The food throughout was great, the buffet had great variety and flavour (it could have done with being a bit hotter), the beach restaurants food was delicious and presented perfectly and the Mirabelle restaurant (à la carte - 20 euros pp supplement) was well worth booking. Food is available throughout the day in various restaurants and they have late night snacks (burgers and wraps) from midnight to 2am which was well received when arriving late on the first night. The rooms are excellent and the hotel is small enough to not feel crowded. My partner used the Spa and said the massage was excellent. The only 2 small negatives are that our room was above the Afterglow nightclub and we could hear music loud until 2am at times and the age old problem of people reserving sunbeds at 7am and then not using them until the afternoon (one side of the pool is in shade so the other side gets full). Overall an excellent holiday with great staff, great food and a fantastically designed hotel. I will be returning!

We had a wonderful stay at Hyde Hotel in Türkiye! A special thank you to Onur Yildirim, Ugur Yildirim, Mustafa Aydin, Sahap und Harun for their outstanding hospitality. Amazing Food! The Team in the Kitchen and Service was always friendly, attentive and genuinely interested in making us happy. They regularly asked if we needed anything else whether they could do something more for us. Their kindness, helpfullness and personal attention made us feel truly welcome. Thank you for your excellent service and for making our stay even more enjoyable. You are a real credit to the hotel!

I stayed at this hotel to celebrate my 40th birthday, and I can honestly say I absolutely loved my experience! From the exceptional service to the delicious food, drinks and fantastic amenities, everything was splendid! The rooms were spacious, luxurious and spotlessly clean. The complimentary minibar was also a lovely added touch and definitely a perk worth mentioning. The location was perfect, very central and only around 30 minutes from the airport, making it incredibly convenient. Our room was situated close to the after-hours club, so it did get a little noisy at times. However, this didn’t bother me too much, as I was fully aware that this was a lively and vibrant hotel. My only constructive criticism would be the music selection at both the beach club and after-hours club. Given that the hotel welcomes guests from all over the world, I feel a more diverse range of music genres would create a more inclusive atmosphere and cater to a wider variety of tastes. Overall, I had an amazing stay and thoroughly enjoyed celebrating such a special milestone here. Despite that one small criticism about the music, I would happily return and recommend this hotel to others!

We had an amazing stay at this hotel and would definitely recommend it to others. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming and always happy to help. The food was delicious throughout our stay, with so much choice and variety available every day. There are also four different restaurants to choose from, which made dining even better and meant there was always something different to try. The rooms were immaculate, modern and well equipped with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. The hotel also has its own private section of beach, which was absolutely amazing and made relaxing by the sea even more enjoyable. One of our favourite features was having QR codes available around the hotel, allowing you to order drinks and have them delivered straight to where you are, such a convenient touch. There was entertainment available every night, so there was always something going on in the evenings too. Overall, we had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Great food, brilliant service, beautiful facilities and a lovely atmosphere. I could definitely see myself visiting this hotel again in the future. Highly recommended!
