We recently stayed at the Alay Hotel as a group of 22 girls, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Every single member of the team was incredibly friendly, helpful, and genuinely accommodating—nothing was too much trouble.
Special shoutout to the front desk team for their patience and good humor, especially when one of the girls had to count out 20 replacement room cards on our way out! That moment really summed up how supportive and easygoing the staff were the entire stay.
We were a big group, but we always felt looked after and appreciated. Thanks again to everyone at Alay Hotel—you made our trip even more memorable!

What a place this is. Super clean. Staff cannot do enough for you.
Great rooms great location for everything.
Just want to say a big thankyou for the staff that sorted the bouquet of flowers for me.
Highly reccomend this hotel.
I recommend you get a suite with sea view as the views are breathtaking you can see the whole town

Great location, right behind the marina. Lots of restaurants and shops nearby. Room was ok. Breakfast was ok. Pools were ok. We had a sea-facing view with a balcony, which was quite nice. The reception staff were really accommodating. It's only a 15min taxi drive from the airport.

The staff were all delightful.
The room was good, but as others have stated on the reviews, more shelves would be helpful (may be above the safe in the wardrobe for example?).
I would have also liked there to have been two doors on the sliding wardrobe in place - whilst in bed the choice of either staring at myself in the mirror & the clothes on view or alternatively looking at safe & mini fridge & clothes covered by the mirror door isn’t very appealing.
I was able to request an iron & ironing board to use & both were clean & looked reasonably new.
I believe you can also request a kettle, but i brought my travel one in case they didn’t have any available.
Restaurant:
More like a canteen with bright lights okay at breakfast, but no atmosphere in the evenings, other than being very noisy, & I’m partially deaf!
Breakfast was adequate & was more or less the same most mornings, you soon worked out what you liked etc. They also provide paper cups for you to take away a coffee/tea at breakfast time.
Dinner was rather repetitive over a week & the food dries out really quickly under the heated lamps (the fish in particular). The “green vegetables “ always looked way over cooked & unappealing to me.
Good selection of cheese, fruit & nuts if you don’t wish to eat the various sweet desserts & they do have some basic ice creams in little tubs in chiller, but as I don’t eat this so i can’t say if it was any good. No coffee served in the restaurant in the evening.

Just spent a week there and its one of the best hotels i have stayed. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone. The room was lovely and the bed was so comfy. Definately a five star hotel.
