Have you had a look on Trip Adviser for reviews of these hotels? The WOW Topkapi is an older hotel well base it's best IMO. The Royal Wings or Royal Dragon would be my choice

SomersetSuzie,

There are member hotel reviews on our Hotel Review section.

Thanks for the input. I have booked the Royal Wings. Any advice would be appreciated. x

I think you've made an excellent choice, we stayed at the Royal Wings last year and thought it was fantastic.
Happy Holidays!

What advice do you want Suzie ??

Anything, Les
From our research on HT, I hope this is a nice hotel but rooms/balcony
are important to us as we are early risers and hopefully(!) late sleepers.

Hi Suzie, Antalya is somewhere we've never been to. As it's your first time to Turkey, what I will say is make time to speak to the local people for it is these who will be key in you enjoying your stay. Turkish people have fantastic memories for people who have shown them kindness.

On the markets and in the jewellers, HAGGLE !!! With the markets you usually settle at about two thirds of the original price, if still not happy then walk away, the seller will come after you if they want to do a deal. Jewellery is excellent value for money, some good deals may be had as they will be looking to sell off this years stock to make way for next years designs.

The only bit of advice that I can give, based on my own experience is, if you're buying cigarettes/tobacco be ULTRA careful as there are loads of fakes to be had and they mostly look like the real thing...

Thanks for your replies. I will let you know how we get on.
