TL;DR
The buffet offers a wide variety including meat, pizza, pastries, and desserts. A late-night snack bar operates near the main restaurant. The a la carte restaurant is disappointing — long waits and poor quality.
The a la carte restaurant was a major disappointment: the table starter included bread, a cheese plate with dried fruits and nuts, and a couple of broccoli florets. The steak took over an hour to arrive and came out burnt, tough, and tasteless. The meal ended without dessert — guests simply left. Not recommended.
For early departures, the hotel provides lunch boxes containing a small juice, a mini muffin, and a roll with cheese and sausage.
A late-night snack bar operates next to the main restaurant, typically offering soup, burgers, small cutlets, sausages, a few sauces, salads, and cheese. The menu varies — some items may not always be available.
The snack bar menu can be incomplete: on some evenings pizza and pasta were unavailable, leaving only burgers.
The hotel bakery is a highlight — simit (sesame bread rings) are especially praised. The buffet also includes pizza, doner, pide, sliced ham, and chicken sausages. Overall quality is budget-level rather than five-star.
The main buffet offers a good variety: plenty of meat dishes, side dishes, pizza, flatbreads, and fast food options. Desserts are abundant and include items like tiramisu.
The hotel's fast food corner serving burgers, shawarma, and pizza received positive feedback — everything tasted good, on par with the main buffet.
