Is the buffet food good at all-inclusive hotels in Turkey?

A guest on day 5 at a budget Turkish 5-star hotel says the food is standard for this category: grilled red fish, beef, chicken, fresh juice in the morning, watermelon, strawberries once. Enough food for everyone, staff equally friendly to all guests.

In small, less touristy Turkish towns, the European cuisine selection at the buffet is limited — usually just pizza and hamburgers.

Rixos Premium Rama stands out for having one of the best buffets among Turkish all-inclusive hotels. It is in a similar price bracket to Zena Resort Hotel.

A key etiquette tip: Turkish hotel staff dislike when guests load up large plates and leave food unfinished. Take small portions, taste different dishes, and go back for more if you enjoy something.

Some dishes taste noticeably better in Turkey than back home — mussels being a common example. Travelers who normally avoid them often enjoy them at Turkish hotel buffets.
