O Hotel:

In addition to the stunning natural beauty that surrounds the property, Mandarin Oriental Bodrum deserves to be highlighted for its service. Despite this feature of the network already being awarded by numerous publications, the feeling of welcome and practicality of it are still surprising.

A butler at the disposal of each room brings ease and saves any effort required by the vacation. You can lose track of the days and hours enjoying everything the property offers: from massages in the hotel's fabulous SPA, lunches and dinners in various restaurants and bars, to days of pools, beaches, activities and water sports.

The hotel is an excellent choice for couples and families looking for a quiet day on the Turkish coast – but within easy reach of the action. I chose Mandarin as a break and rest during my Turkey trip, combining history and culture with the luxurious beach experience of Mandarin and the Bodrum region.

Welcome | Welcome to Mandarin Oriental Hotel

After a tiring journey, no one wants to stand in line to check-in at the hotel. It seems that the Mandarin Oriental understood this sentiment from travelers and turned a conventional hotel arrival into an exceptional welcome experience. Upon arriving at the Mandarin, your bags go straight from the car or transfer to your suite.

You are directed to a living room to sit, relax, enjoy a warm towel, have a welcome drink and start living the exclusive hotel experience.

When you need the butler's help, just call by phone or WhatsApp: whether to change a reservation at a restaurant, unpack your bags, get that special newspaper or even to send you a golf cart so you don't have to walk from the beach to the bedroom.
