The breakfast room was the most extensive part of this winter's renovation work. We moved it to the hotel's west side; every table now faces the sea, and the terrace is open every morning when the weather allows. The renovation was about more than just a change of location, though – we rebuilt the menu from scratch too.
The New Layout
In the old room, the buffet ran along a single long counter, and queues formed during the morning rush. In the new layout, the buffet is divided into five separate islands: hot dishes, cheese and olives, pastries and breads, fruit and desserts, and drinks. So a guest who only wants a coffee no longer has to wait in the queue for eggs.
We have added 14 tables on the terrace. Breakfast starts at 07.00 and runs until 10.30; at weekends it is extended until 11.00.
What Has Changed in Our Kitchen?
We source most of the produce we serve at breakfast from producers in and around Antalya. Freshness isn't the only reason: bringing the region's own produce to the table is the most direct way for our guests to get to know the area.
- Cheeses: Goat's cheese, tulum and künefe cheese from Elmalı and Korkuteli
- Olives and olive oil: Cold-pressed, from the Finike area
- Honey: Pine and wildflower honey from the Taurus highland pastures, served in the comb
- Fruit: Depending on the season, Gazipaşa bananas, Finike oranges and Aksu strawberries
- Bread: Sourdough, cornbread and simit, fresh from our hotel bakery every morning
The Hot Section
The cooked-to-order section offers menemen, fried eggs served in the pan, omelettes, eggs with sucuk and gözleme. At the gözleme counter, the dough is rolled out throughout the morning, with cheese, spinach and potato fillings to choose from.
For guests setting off too early to come down for breakfast, we prepare a packed breakfast if you let us know the night before.
Drinks
Tea is brewed in a samovar and served in traditional glasses. For coffee, filter coffee, Turkish coffee and espresso-based drinks are made at the barista counter at no extra charge. Fruit juices are freshly squeezed daily, and during orange and pomegranate season there is a juicer on the counter.
Special Dietary Requirements
Gluten-free bread and desserts, lactose-free milk and vegan options are served in a separate, clearly labelled section of the buffet. If guests with allergies let us know when booking, our kitchen will prepare their food separately.
Breakfast on the Terrace
The terrace is open from the beginning of April until the end of November. Thanks to the cool breeze off the sea in the morning, it is often more comfortable than indoors, especially in July and August. Tables cannot be reserved and are first come, first served; 08.00 - 09.30 is the busiest time. For a quiet morning, we suggest 07.00 - 07.45, when the terrace is almost completely empty and the sea is usually calm.
Room Service
If you would like breakfast in your room, simply fill in the form on the door hanger the night before. In sea-view rooms and suites, breakfast can also be served on the balcony, with the table set up outside. Room service breakfast is available from 07.30 to 11.00 and covers most of the items on the buffet.
We are still reading the feedback from guests trying the new room for the first time. You can share your thoughts with reception or use the form on our contact page.
