We recently had the pleasure of staying at your Elite World Grand Hotel in Halkali for a week, and we wanted to share our incredibly positive experience. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the 5-star service and exceptional attention to detail. The cleanliness throughout the hotel was beyond our expectations, and we were particularly struck by the warmth and professionalism of your staff. A special thank you goes to Gulаndam, who made our visit to the hotel even more special and welcoming. She was not only hardworking and attentive, but also gave us a wonderful tour of the spa area. We noticed her cleaning the locker rooms, gym, and sauna areas multiple times, which made us feel very comfortable and reassured by the high level of cleanliness. Her genuine hospitality truly enhanced our experience. We also have to mention that the breakfast was absolutely delicious! Each morning, we were treated to a wide variety of fresh, flavorful, and high-quality dishes that made starting our day a true delight. It was definitely one of the highlights of our stay. We can confidently say that you’ve earned 10 stars from us! We are already looking forward to our next visit and will definitely recommend your hotel to friends and family. Thank you again for such a wonderful stay! Warm regards, Pukhalsky Family

I would recommend never staying here ever. The staff is out right rude and will run you out of there. If you’re from a different country they treat you terribly. When I checked in my room was so hot and the AC wasn’t working and they insisted they fixed it but I just opened the window. It is loud on the streets and you can hear sirens all night long and can not sleep. The food is also terrible and location is even worse. Please do not stay here would give this place 0 stars if I could!
