Where to start... I was there with my friends and this was the worst holiday we ever had! It is a four star hotel, but it barely deserves three. Only good thing was that the rooms and sheets were clean. The dishes were so dirty, on the cofee cups there were always leftovers of cofee, they smelt on milk, like they never washed them. I can't explain how dirty the glasses were. They always smelt so bad, propably when they were in hurry, they washed them only with water, many times there was a lipstick trak on them. Also they put them on a dirty plates, so the smell was even more terrible. And can you imagine in a four star hotel to drink from a plastic glasses? Well, on the terrace bar they give you water and juice (if you can call some instant flavour with water a juice) in plastic glasses that were used thousand times and propabli washed only with cold water (you can imagine the smell of this glasses). The plates, knifes and forks were also dirty. When we objected couple of times about that, they might got a little better, but after the second day,we strated to ignore the fact that they were dirty, becouse otherwise, we wouldn't eat anything and we would stay hungry, altought we payed for all inclusive.
And the stuff... we have been on many places, but we never had such a bad experience with the stuff like in this hotel. I'm not sure if totaly three people in the hotel spoke english. Only the manager of the reception, the receptionist and the manager of the restorant spoke english, even not great. Most of the other stuff didn't understand a word. When we asked for extra chairs in our room becouse we were three persons, and there was only one chair, we had to remind them three or four times to bring them. But when we had to check out, they were so precise, they called us even ten minutes earlier to remind us that we had to check out.
There was no entertaiment in the hotel at all, only one night of the week, during dinner, there was a turkish night, it wasn't bad, but nothing else. Even on the terrace in the evening there was nothing, somethimes they played some limited number of songs on a poor sound system, but that was all.
There were some other things that we weren't satisfied with, but it would take more place and more time, so I'll stop here.
In one sentence, if you don't want to ruin your holiday, don't go in Cesars hotel Bodrum.

The hotel is a little "tired" around the edges but nothing a little TLC wouldn't fix. The pool, bars and grounds were clean and well maintained Room was clean and the only problem we had was fixed very quickly. The staff were very friendly and spoke good English or worked with you until they understood. The food was plentiful, very tasty and well presented. Yes it is Continetal / Turkish but we can get fish and chips 50 other weeks of the year. Foreign food is part of the fun for us. Although there was plenty of choice each day it was a little repetitious and perhaps a daily "signature" dish would have been nice. Apart from the "Turkish Night" there was no entertainment except a very limited selection of cd's played over a temperamental sound system, which was rather poor considering the number of roving performers in the town. As a base, it is close enough to the town for the nightlife but without any noise problems.

One thing to note is that we were "the only English in the village" for the first week and it was commented on that it is unusual for the English to be at this hotel. However there were none of the problems usually levelled at the Germans and he ones we spoke to were very pleasant.

Overall we would go back as the staff and locals made it a good experience.

The Hotel is superb the staff cant do enough for you.
The grounds are very clean and well landscaped. The only drawback is the food if you like continental and Turkish cuiscine this is the place for you however my three teenage children are fussy eaters so we ate out most evenings even though we were all inclusive.
