Sırma Garden
41 review
November 10
A wonderful hotel, normal rooms, accommodation, food, but best of all the beach, the sea, the hotel grounds! This garden, trees, flowers, is just a huge territory for such a small number of vacationers. The beach is the best among all the hotels, there are many places both on the seashore and in the shade of trees. And if there are not many places nearby on the shore in other hotels, they occupy sun loungers in the morning, we always had seats. There is really a very large beach, no one interferes with each other. Another plus is that the beach does not close, they do not drive you out of the sea, you can swim after sunset. Everything else is the same as everywhere else, we were traveling across the sea. The food is normal, buffet, yes, at the end of the rest I got tired, but we didn't go hungry, there was plenty of everything. We read in the reviews that they do not clean the rooms, we did not notice. However, we have always been clean. Towels were changed almost every day, bed linen was also often, there were always gels, water was also put in the room almost every day. No tips were left in the room. Yes, they paid extra when checking in, but they gave me a two-room room for two with my sister. We are happy with the rest, we definitely recommend it if we still fly to Turkey, only to Sirma. A quiet, peaceful, comfortable stay.

I liked the hotel. The guests are mostly Germans. The location is convenient. The sea is nearby. The road to the sea is pleasant. There is a bar on the beach and you can also have lunch. There are enough sun beds. There are places on the grass in the shade of trees. The food is good, but without frills. And the restaurant is clean and comfortable with a sea view. A safe, a towel and internet in the room are available for a fee. I liked the rest. The sea is wonderful, the approach is smooth and on the sand. There are no children. The internet in the lobby is also free. There is a pool, but I did not visit it. Everything is very decent for 4 people.

Wonderful hotel) We liked it. The rooms are clean and cozy. The sea view is gorgeous. The beach is three minutes away by walking. The beach is small, but we had enough sunbeds at the end of the season)
The entrance to the sea is so gentle that you can "cross the sea" on foot.
There is no animation at all, but this is not a minus at all.
The staff is pleasant and helpful. There are, of course, annoying comrades, minus one star for them..

I agree with the previous reviews. The sea is nearby, the location of the apartment is good, surrounded by lemons, oranges and other fruit trees. The territory is well maintained and beautiful. Towels were changed daily, and drinking water was supplied regularly. I'm lowering my rating for the restaurant's work in recent days. It's clear, the end of the season, but somehow it's very unpleasant when you come and there's nothing to eat. There is nothing at all, the shelves are empty. The cook cooks scrambled eggs and asks for money for it. But overall I liked the hotel. But you need to go without children. No animation, no slides. And it is difficult to feed: our child refused to eat Turkish food, generously seasoned with tomatoes.

October 25
This is the ninth time we have been to Turkey, we always go to Side, I like the sandy beach, until the last trip to Sirma 4* we considered Turkey a hospitable country.
We had a rest in October 2024 from October 17 to October 24, with a company of 6 people, 5 of them women (age 50+)
The Hotel has a good room stock, the rooms are large, clean, the family room is like a three-room apartment with a kitchen (refrigerator, stove with oven, dishes), 2 balconies, and even a washing machine. The standard room is also large, 2 beds - double and one and a half. The water in the rooms is replenished daily, 1.5 liters bottles. On site, water and tea can only be requested at the bar (in other hotels there were always refrigerators with plastic cups with a lid with water and tea and coffee machines). The food was very modest. maybe because it's the end of the season, or maybe the hotel has such a concept. One day there weren't even any eggs for breakfast! Well, we didn't starve to death, but of course we were very surprised.
The territory of the hotel is small, the path to the sea is a lawn, fruit trees, pines, flowers - everything is well maintained. It takes 3-5 minutes to walk to the sea.
The beach is private, there is a bar with drinks on the beach and even for the first three days you could have lunch there, but then for some reason they stopped bringing food to the beach bar, we went to a shared restaurant.
About safety:
on the night of October 19-20, a fire broke out in the hotel late in the evening, where exactly we did not understand, there was heavy smoke in the corridors in the main building, people ran down the stairs, but the elevators were not turned off!!!!!, THE FIRE ALARM DID NOT WORK!!!! The staff did not notify - leave the rooms or something else!!!
We ran out into the street, some people were in their underpants, some with suitcases, the kids were wrapped in blankets, everyone was sitting outside, no one even came up to us from the staff!!! Firefighters arrived quickly - they put out something somewhere - we still did not understand where the fire was. Next, the hotel staff opened all the windows on the stairs, all the doors to ventilate the smoke. The smoke was very pungent - it smelled of plastic. Some of the guests began to move somewhere, we went to the reception, asked what we should do, the employee replied that we could return to our rooms - no danger, just a little bit smoke. You should have seen this little bit smoke. There were 5 floors in the smoke, actually. No apologies, no explanations.
There is a separate story about the staff at the bar. In the morning there were either young girls on shift - there are no questions for them, smiling and cute, they will pour tea, they will give water. But in the evening, two men worked there in pairs. I was trying to find out what their names were - like Omer and Mehmet (or Mohamed?) but maybe they didn't give their names, they could have deceived
Nowhere, in any hotel, in any country, have we encountered such behavior of the staff!!!!!
They were openly rude to us, they could defiantly ignore us, talking to each other in Turkish, giggling - you could only make out Russia, Russia - that is, it's about us some nasty things. Let me remind you, there were 5 decent ladies of 50+. We didn't get drunk or make noise, we didn't give any reason for dislike, but apparently they didn't need him. The very fact that we are defenseless women, and perhaps just Russians, was enough for them. They ran to the German citizens as fast as they could, brought them drinks on a tray, and at best they simply ignored us. He kicked us out of the bar at 23.14 - although the bar is open until 00.00
, They poured diluted beer. They didn't give me 2 glasses in one hand - although I took a drink for myself and for one of my friends. Instead of a Sirma special cocktail, I just poured a sprite. I asked the reception to replace the bartender, but they were apparently friends - the receptionist and the bartender, chirped among themselves in Turkish and for the rest of the evening the bartender began to serve us silently, but only if we approached the counter, as to the Germans with a tray, he did not approach us. He didn't clean our table. In the following evenings, he threatened us in broken Russian that we would have problems. We didn't understand what such problems were - I asked him to invite a senior manager and discuss our problems. Naturally, no one was invited to us.
In general, all 6 evenings were spoiled by the blatant rudeness and threats of the evening bartenders.
I think this is unacceptable - it is discrimination based on nationality or gender. It is very easy for a man to offend weak women. If they can be called men at all. We are primarily guests of the hotel. We paid money to relax and enjoy life, and not to listen to rudeness, to receive spoiled drinks, (or not to receive them at all!!!!) I have no words at all about threats of problems.
It's just disgusting.
We will never return to this hotel.

I rested at the Sirma hotel from 20.10 to 01.11. the place is familiar (we were in Princesses a couple of years ago) and the travel agent herself was here in May.
I arrived around 10 a.m., checked in immediately, for an additional fee I was given a room with a frontal view of the sea.
Yes, the beach is good, the road to it is picturesque, food - you will not stay hungry.
26.10 the buffet was removed exactly half :( and 30.10 it was completely removed :( :( and to live for another 3 days, they were fed with what they would bring from another place, they did NOT COOK at the hotel : ( half of this ball is inedible from the evening of 31.10
We were fed in the lobby :(
Sori answered all the requests, pleas, and tears

We lived in apartments at the hotel. The location is excellent, the sea is just a stone's throw away, there are free sun beds on the beach. The apartments are spacious - two bedrooms, a living room-kitchen, two balconies/terraces, newly renovated. That's where the advantages end. There is no cleaning, Wi-Fi is paid (25 euros per week for 4 devices), beach towels are paid (10 euros per week, you can change every day at the reception), there are few dishes - there are no frying pans, glasses, mugs only beer and small coffee. The shower is terrible, the water barely flows, it is difficult to set up a warm one - then hot, then cold. The staff at the reception and on the beach is wild: towels were changed reluctantly, on the beach by 20 o'clock they collect all mattresses from sun beds, it doesn't matter even though you are lying on it. Officially, the beach is up to 19, although the sunset is closer to 21, and many are waiting for it.
The price tag is inflated in the season - we bargained for 150 euros per day for three people in these large apartments, although in the hotel itself they are 250 each, apparently just rooms, perhaps all inclusive. The hotel has a swimming pool almost on the road - there is not much above it. It was also possible to use it, but somehow there was no desire.

A very pleasant, peaceful hotel. The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. Two minutes walk to the sea. There is a bar by the sea and many sun beds both on the beach and on the grass near the bar. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The Side center is within walking distance. 25 minutes of a leisurely walk to the old Side.

We rested at the hotel from 6.08 to 13.08.23
Advantages of the hotel
—ACCOMMODATION
spacious room(apartment/family room)
2 large balconies
two air conditioners
in one room there is a double bed and in the other a single bed
there is also a huge sofa
in the kitchen (kettle, microwave, electric stove)
the TV shows only 2-3 out of 11 programs in Turkish (but I think few people watch TV on vacation)
— THE SEA
we got our own sun beds (of the hotel)
, a room 2 minutes away, everything is very close to the sea
— ANIMATORS
1 animator
volleyball twice a day
Ping pong whenever you want, you can take the rackets and play
—
FOOD there is food in the restaurant on the 6th floor with a super view of the sea and also by the beach (pizza pasta Turkish pizza and much more
and also the food is delicious as in the top five(⭐️)
— the staff here is friendly
— the most popular excursions are located near the hotel (an hour and a half drive)
CONS
a very strange system with alcoholic beverages
a cocktail for money is 5 euros (but they can also offer to make a mix (whiskey cola mix) somehow stupid.
WiFi is paid for 2 devices per day 8 euros
Beach towel is charged 2 euros per day (you can not take a towel from the room-there will be a fine )
The safe is paid and it is located at the reception and your laptop will not fit there and I do not see the point in such a safe, 5 euros
The pool is not very large (it is small and 140 cm deep)
but there is also a children's pool (40 cm) this is a plus
Conclusion
the classic four at the hotel, there are disadvantages and advantages
The most important plus is the ancient city of Side and everything is within walking distance of bars, restaurants, pharmacies and souvenir shops.

The hotel does not pull in 4 stars for a maximum of 3, I do not recommend going to it. I rested for 2 days in a room on the 4th floor, the building was located on a picturesque street (orchard), near the reception.
+ very beautiful two streets leading to the sea, they are planted with many fruit trees and shrubs; a gorgeous promenade by the sea, which stretches to the old town of Side
- poor room cleaning; no shampoos; there is a safe only at the reception and for a fee; the lock from the room is not reliable; weak and noisy air conditioning; the water in the shower is cold, then hot; there is one bottle of water in the minibar, nothing else, if you drink a new one, they do not put it; Wi-Fi is paid in the room (day 8 euros - for 2 devices); a terrible small dusty pool, located next to the road; they do not give out a beach towel, I had to take the usual one in the room; the food is terrible, the choice of dishes is extremely small, drinks are diluted with water, powdered juices, alcohol is not of high quality, if I did not have time for breakfast, lunch or dinner, then you will not be able to eat at the hotel, even in the snack bar near the beach there is no food, only drinks; the hotel has a separate area with sun loungers on the beach, the sand is dirty, a lot of cigarette butts, the sea is warm, but also dirty, the depth starts very far; icy water flows in the shower on the beach; evening shows are weak (there were dances belly), they are held in a snack bar; the staff does not understand Russian well
The hotel is mainly occupied by Turks and Germans

The hotel is, in fact, 3 stars. Wi-Fi is paid in the room, there were no slippers, shampoos and gels. It doesn't matter, we used free Wi-Fi at the reception, took a little rest from sitting on the phone, and took our favorite beach towels and gels from home. The dishes in the room were all right, but we didn't cook. There was drinking water in the room. Cleaning every day. White towels have not been changed in 6 days. The sea is clean, the beach is fine sand, there were always enough sun beds. The food is delicious. Juices and coffee are tasteless, but it's everywhere in Turkey. At 11 p.m. we arrived at the hotel, they didn't give us a night meal, we had to buy a snack at the store next door. The pools are cool: one is 40 cm deep for children, the other is 140 cm, the water is clean, not dusty, warm. There are few Russians in the hotel, many Europeans. Everyone treats Russians without aggression. We were in the middle of August 2023.

We rest in the apartment 4 times. Very convenient location. There are shops, cafes, a hospital nearby (we were with children and this was an important factor). Side has a long promontory, very convenient for hiking. The main thing is a sandy beach and a long smooth entrance to the depth. It is perfect for families with children.

My wife and I stayed at the hotel from September 1 to September 27, 2022 and we will be happy to come here next year, despite 80+ and problems with endoprostheses..We have lived in hotels in Europe, Asia, and Africa dozens of times. We have rested in Side many times and we can say that Sirma is quite a decent hotel with a lot of advantages: a magnificent stretch of beach without stones, a large and diverse arboretum with neat bungalows, quite decent clean rooms, very friendly staff from waiters to maids, quite a variety of food - at least for a month I did not get tired and no complaints there was a lack of loud animators and drunken neighbors.. And it is very important that we have made a lot of new friends from different parts of Russia. Germany, the Netherlands, Turkey.. Of course, there are disadvantages - there have been problems with the Internet, there are no shampoos and hats - but you can always buy them nearby. And the ladies "with requests", of course, were also sometimes nearby (and they meet on every trip), but their dissatisfaction with food can easily be compensated, if desired, in a bunch of nearby seafood restaurants, I can also recommend living instead of Sirma in the nearby Barut Acanthus hotel (we rested there 3 times before its reconstruction ) with the same wonderful beach and staff, though 4-5 times more expensive...

I am currently at the hotel. The food is standard Turkish. There is no animation. Towels are paid. WiFi in lobi is very slow. Catches closer to the reception. There are a lot of cigarette butts on the beach. The beach was never cleaned when we were there.upon arrival in the morning, wearing bracelets, they tried to sell a paid breakfast. That is, on the first day of the paid tour. No comments.The entrance to the sea is good. A room with windows on the neighboring aqua park hotel and the condors on the right is noisy in the main building.

I am currently "resting" at this hotel. I've been to many places in Turkey. But to do so..... It's a creepy place. I don't even know where to start. There's nothing here. From the word AT ALL. The territory is tiny. The pool is next to the road. There is no control at the entrance. There are some strange guys at the reception. Apparently, only they are ready to fight back against dissatisfied guests. There is no safe in the room. They offer scary mailboxes in the hallway behind the lobby. The key couldn't be simpler. And they point at the camera. Like, there's a camera. So what???? It will be impossible to find the person who took out the contents of your mailbox. There is nothing in the room. Even basic soap. Just a creepy liquid. I have one of the most expensive rooms in the townhouse. The walls are dirty and shabby. The curtains are dirty. The curtains in the living room are smaller than the window. And I have the first floor and the window looks out onto the path. I don't even want to write about food. My dog wouldn't eat that. I barely survived dinner and breakfast. I'm afraid I can't stand lunch. Thank God my apartment has a kitchen. I do not know what I paid such a lot of money for. I wrote to the Booking office. Waiting for an answer. Dear friends, dear ones, don't be fooled by the photos. None of this is here, and if it is, then everything is old and shabby. It's disgusting to touch the door handle in the shower. It's all peeling off and scratching my hand. I'm afraid to plant a splinter. In general, you can't drive here. I have a storm of negative emotions. To be fair: the sea is nearby, the line is indeed the first. The first thing does not happen. The beach is sandy. The bed is quite comfortable. The bed linen and towels are drip white and not old. Maybe even new ones. That seems to be all of the advantages. Advice from the bottom of my heart: there is nothing to do here. The hotel is worse than lame.

Turkey. Side. Sirma Hotel. We had a rest from August 14 to 26, 2021. Four.. The territory consists of a main 7-
storey building and three-storey cottages. It takes a couple of minutes from the main building to the sea. Lots of trees. Its own sandy beach. The first coastline. Decent room stock. It's simple, but it looks good. The restaurant is on the top floor with a magnificent view
of the sea. The food is without delicacies, but decent. The staff is masked, self-service, but asked to wear gloves. The rooms are cleaned daily. There is a bar on the beach. WiFi in the lobby is free. Not far from the historical center of Side. There are a lot of shops around. We are happy with the rest.

We are resting now in this hotel. The hotel is for vegans. There is no meat at all. Not for lunch or dinner. For that, the pictures in the insta are like a holiday of the soul. The location is not bad. The room stock is not dead. But everything spoils the food. It's not coconut. It used to be much better in terms of calls. If the cook has changed, then figs knows what. But I would not recommend this hotel. The price is a maximum of 50 with a flight for 2 weeks. If you take it for breakfast and lunch, go to a restaurant outside the territory. They save on everything, on food, on electricity. We were sitting in the lobby, the lights were off, we were asked to turn it on, we needed to work, since Wi-Fi is only in the lobby, we were told to go to the beach bar. But there is no Wi-Fi))) Everything needs to be knocked out. More about mixing drinks. They even mix pepsi with water. NOT TO MENTION ALCOHOL, WHICH IS NOT EXPENSIVE INITIALLY. For example, whiskey. The lid is specially broken off so that you can pour some water)

The management and administration of the Sirma Hotel in side organize and clean the recreation area with sun beds on the grass. Terrible unsanitary conditions and garbage. Flies from your trash are flying all over the boardwalk. In case of failure to take action, the next appeal will be to the Turkish Ministry of Tourism and your president. A shame for Turkey's tourism!!

Russians are not very popular, the service is at the residual level, after foreigners.
The food is ordinary, the sea is nearby. The beach is sand with pebbles, it is fashionable to find a fragment of a broken bottle, steers and so on. Funny animator Turk, here he is the only one who raises the rating to 3 stars.
The hotel staff just wants to cheat on an extra 10 bucks.
Drinks are served through the staff at the restaurant.
The worst of the hotels I've been to, but probably not for nothing it has 3 stars.
