2/10 Terrible

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service
This was my first time solo travelling, and I was sexually harassed, assaulted, and stalked by another guest during my stay at Holiday Inn Antalya Lara. Despite reporting this multiple times and even pointing out the individual, and despite the hotel confirming the incident through CCTV footage, the hotel refused to remove him and refused to call the police. They did not even offer to change my room, even after he discovered which floor I was staying on.
Instead, staff were dismissive and kept making excuses like “we can’t do anything without management” while telling me “nothing will happen to you” and “this is a very safe hotel.” It gave the impression there is no policy to protect guests: even in cases of serious crime, you are left waiting for management to make a decision that may never come. The perpetrator remained in the hotel throughout my stay, approaching me again in front of staff, leaving me unsafe and unprotected. This not only put me in danger, but also other guests.
After leaving, I contacted hotel management in writing but was ignored. I deliberately waited before posting this review to give them the chance to apologise, take responsibility and do the right thing. They did not.
Guest safety is clearly not a priority here. I strongly advise against staying, especially for women travelling solo.
