"I booked this hotel for my parents (in their 70s).
They said staff were very helpful and attentive, rooms were great and location couldn't be better."
Swandor Hotels & Resort Topkapi Palace - All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"We stayed at Swandor with my wife and had a great experience overall. Everything was on a high level — service, food, and facilities.
The room was clean and comfortable with a nice balcony. Plenty of activities during the day and evening entertainment, so there is always something to do.
Food and drinks were excellent with a wide variety and good quality cocktails, all-inclusive worked very well.
The pools are large and beautiful, perfect for swimming and relaxing.
Overall, a great choice for a comfortable and enjoyable holiday. Would definitely come back again."

The staff was friendly but this is the only good thing I can say about the property. Avoid if you can.."
