Is it safe to leave valuables in your hotel room in Antalya?

Based on 2 discussions with 3 participants · Last activity: 40 days ago

TL;DR

Generally safe, but use the in-room safe or a locked suitcase. Hotel safes cost around 800–1000 Turkish lira to rent.

What the community said

Another traveler left phones and headphones unattended in the room, once even forgot to lock the safe — nothing was taken. The only thing that disappeared was a dollar bill left visibly on the bed.

A complaint about theft directly from the hotel safe: $200 went missing from a wallet stored inside the safe (only $40 of the stolen amount was spent). Reception claimed such incidents never happen and that this was the first such complaint.

33 days ago Theft from hotel safe

One traveler reported a theft of a small amount — a few dollars and euro coins — from unlocked suitcases left in the room. The locked suitcase was not opened, though its combination lock was broken. Lesson: lock all your bags, not just the one with money, and consider putting a smaller bag inside a larger one with an extra padlock.

Some travelers skip the hotel safe, finding it unconvincing, and instead store valuables in a hard-sided suitcase with a combination lock — this approach also works.
