I would stay there again the staff are really friendly. I am going back in May 2008 and I can't wait to go and see Thomas. I miss him so much, the rooms are really nice. I stayed in a studio as I went on my own and I loved every minute.
I would reccommend anyone to stay here or even go to Turkey if you have never been you don't know what you are missing it is fantastic.x

| said: We stayed Bed and breakfast and have just arrived back this morning from our two week stay. Breakfast consists of the usual Turkish food bread, cheese, olives, salad some days you get an omlette but you can opt to have English for 2 and half lira about 90p this was nice although a little cold and service slow. Hotel cleanliness can't fault maids always on the go kept our room clean daily and we did use it as a tip, didn't like the air con ours wasn't very cold and we had to have 3 rooms so my husband and I stayed in seperate rooms all holiday, which meant we had to pay double for air con £80 for fortnight. Food we only ate one meal apart from breakfast in the hotel and that took about an hour to arrive but was nice. Location was nice away from the hustle and clubs but a long walk from Marmaris town would be a nice walk in cooler weather. Hotel staff were nice Say Hello to Ozzie reception and Sex bomb teeeeeeeeeeea tiiiiiiiiiime you will find out when you visit the biggest mouth in Marmaris and such a little bloke. When we arrived Ozzie(another one) was taking charge of all the entertaining and was fantastic he was so funny everyone loved him then we got told he was sacked Bring Him Back he made the Hotel what it is he was a scream so funny people loved playing games in the pool with him. Entertainment can't comment we ate out every night Mascots straight down the road towards the beach lovely place Hello Ozzie, September, October. youcan we miss you already. We would definately go back to this Hotel it was nice we had a lovely pool view and by the way they are both pretty deep for kids. Astro turf made the pool areas very safe didn't worry about falling over at all, rooms were all carpeted which made it feel more homely too.Will be going back 2009 as already booked to try Tunisia 2008 or would have gone back to Club Atrium Turkey is FANTASTIC.

| said: The 2 weeks stay started off great, the staff were all fantastic with the kids, Ozzy constantley busy organising and playing games in and out of the pool all day and night, must mention Sez Bomb and his Teaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Tiiiiiiiime, just wait!!!
It was a good job that these guys entertained the kids because the JMC Kid Reps weren't exactley energetic at playing with the kids. I think most kids stayed away, our little girl went a couple of times but found it Boring, she has never had a problem on any other holiday we have been on.
My biggest problem with the hotel happened in the 2nd week. We noticed money had gone missing from inside our safe, first £40 then £20 a couple of days later. I reported this to the Thomas Cook Rep, I had to fill out a few reports one of which was a Lost Item Report. She then reported it to the hotel management and from this point on I felt as though I was the suspect and I had made the whole thing up because they said "this could not have happed as there are no spare keys to the safe, we must have lost the key or enabled someone to get hold of our key", unbelieveable, These comments made by both the Rep, who is supposed to look after our needs and the Hotel Management infuriated me and spoiled the last 2 days of our family holiday. Please be aware if you get allocated room 408 on arrival, the safe is not safe and will cost you £20 for the pleasure.

| said: This is our second stay at Club Atrium and we again couldn`t fault it. Rooms are basic but to be honest we were hardly ever in the room as there is so much to do.
Ozzy was in charge of entertainment around the pool & kept my 14 year old son entertained for hours on end.
Waterbasketball, volleyball,water polo etc
The waiters were great, I would love to mention them all but a special mention must go to the fabulous Sex Bomb! He is an absolute star! Nothing is too much trouble for these guys, I don`t know where they get their energy from.
The Atrium has their own photographer Hakan who takes some great photos.
I must give a mention to the DJ Ferdi, thanks for the cd.
Evening entertainment was fine, it is repeated the second week but we were out alot the first week so were able to catch the shows the second time around.
I am sure anyone staying at this hotel will have a great holiday!

| said: Room was kept clean, although not to my wife's standard. The food on site was excellent and service was impressive especially ebo and alfie moon couldn't do enough for you.
Poolside entertainment everyday, from water basketball to bingo, and pool tournament on a Saturday and Tuesday, just watch that your kids don't get conned by Ozzy who cheated my boy out his winnings when he won the junior final, then told he had to play an adult for winner takes all, bad man when they did not do this the two finals before, apart from this this was a good hotel where the majority of staff could not do enough for you.
Try the Turkish bath in the hotel, best tenner you will spend so relaxing. We had a studio on the top floor just bring a hard hat as you will constantly bang your head on triangle shaped roof.
Entertainment was good, only problem, karaoke three night a week, bit much. No new acts on second week, just a re-run of the first, still let us see more of the resort.

It was our first trip to Turkey and we have never been so sad to leave a place in our lives!
The staff are absolutely amazing and really do not get enough credit, working round the clock but always really pleased to see you and up for a good laugh! They would do absolutely anything for you! It must be an exhausting job but you never ever see it.
The self catering apartments ARE very basic but you don't spend much time there anyway! You have everything you need to make it comfortable. I Just don't think I can say enough about the Atrium and told the owner as much when we left. Two days later, once we had returned, we booked again for June next year and now june can't come fast enough!
For a real laugh, check out the Elvis show at the Havana Bar...love it or hate it you are guaranteed it will make you laugh!

| said: We have just returned from the Club Atrium and we really enjoyed our stay. The rooms are basic but we hardly spent any time in them as there is so much to do. The rooms are cleaned every day ( thankfully not too early either!), sheets and towels changed every three days.
The food at both the pool bar and Havanna Restaurant are really nice. You don`t even need to get off your sunbed to go to the pool bar the waiters will bring you anything you like!
The location was great, 15 minute walk to the beach (which we never went to as the pool was so good) or 5 mins to the marina on the local bus.
The hotel staff - what can I say they were all brilliant! The waiters kept us all entertained all day every day, look out for Usher, Ibo, Ali G and not forgetting the unforgettable Sex Bomb! we will miss them all!
Entertainment was fine, something on every night, but the best bit was when the waiters got on the stage at the end of the night and did a few dance routines.
We all want to visit this hotel again.

| said: This was our fifth time in the Club Atrium and it just gets better every time we go.
The rooms are always clean and the maids are very nice ladies they change your towels and sheets 3 times a week but if you need towels in the mean time then they will always get you clean ones.
What can I say about the staff, we love them all. We still keep in touch with a few of them and can't wait to see them in June 07 I have never been anywhere else including Marmaris where I can say the staff are as good as in the Atrium. They make your holiday such fun we love going in the Cuba bar after we have been in the Havana with the kids as they love the entertainment.
We have eaten in the Havana a few times and it was very nice but we like to eat down at the marina as we spend alot of time in the Atrium during the day. So if your not going on a trip or down the beach your have just as much fun around the pool. I can guarantee you will love this hotel

| said: This was our fifth time in Turkey, so we knew what to expect. We had seen this hotel 6 years ago when we stayed at the Hotel Epic and thought it looked good then.
We didn't click when we booked that it was this one we were going to, so it was a pleasant surprise.
We arrived 7.30am after being up all night and was quickly allocated a studio room as we'de originally booked to go self catering.
What a disappointment! The room was tiny, even for 2 people, it was old fashioned and the balcony door fell off the hinges when I tried to open it.
We weren't going to bother with the welcome meeting but we were so unhappy with the room we had to just to see the rep. We explained about the room, but mainly the door as we couldn't even close it, which was not very secure.
Stacey, the rep, was great. She came up to look at the room and agreed it wasn't up to standard. We asked if we could pay the difference and go into the bed and breakfast side of the hotel.
We really didn't mind paying for this as it was our choice to move. Stacey said there was no way we were paying for it and they upgraded us free of charge because of the poor quality room.
The room we went to in the hotel was clean, spacious, and very comfortable indeed. Absolutely no complaints at all.
The food was lovely and very reasonably priced. We ate there a couple of times and it was always very good. The lunches at the pool bar are fab. Try the chicken wraps, out of this world.
The location is ideal. Just a nice distance from Marmaris centre, a pleasant walk in to the town. There's plenty of places to eat near the hotel, so you wouldn't even have to go into Marmaris every night.
The hotel staff work so hard to make your holiday relaxing and enjoyable. The amount of hours they work is unreal and they never moan about it, they just get on with it.
Sex Bomb is lovely. Always happy to see you. Go to the hairdressers, he has a gorgeous little chihuahua called Cindy. He took quite a fancy to my husband, the hairdresser, not the dog!
The entertainment was good. Something on every night. I don't know where they all get their energy from.
I would go back to the Atrium tomorrow, it was a relaxing holiday even with the manic sex bomb.

| said: I stayed in Club Atrium apartments and whilst they are very basic and not very big the staff at this complex make the holiday extra special. I have goosebumps thinking about them all.
Our room was cleaned EVERY DAY and sheets changed EVERY DAY, towels were most days but they used their common sense and did not change them if they had even been used.
The staff were fantastic. Everyone had a smile all the time. Not sure how they did it. They really could not do enough for you.
At 4.00 p.m. each day they have "tea time". The waiters dress up woman or something funny and bring round chocolate cake, strawberry cheese cake, beer, tea, coffee etc. etc. etc.
You can literally stay on your sunbed all day and they will bring you anything you want.
The entertainment is not the best but as there is a very big and very good kiddies play area right next to it (you can see your kids whilst you are drinking or having a meal) those parents like me who never get any babysitters feel as though they are actualy on a night out without the kids and you do sometimes forget they are with you.
I will never go to Spain again, the Turkish people are just so nice and friendly and they really can't do enough for you.
I could not imagine going back and not staying at Club Atrium. It is like its only little complex. 2 pools, pool bar, Cuba Bar, Havana bar and restaurant, mini-market, pool tables, football pitch.
The kiddies play area is great too. My little boy loved DIsco Dani, Kool Keiran and Lollipop Leo. In fact I think I loved them as much as him. I never thought I would put my children in a kiddies club abroad but most days I wanted to go in there with him. It is air conditioned in there so gives the kids a great break from the sun and they meet all their friends in there.
Can't explain how much I loved it, I wanted to bring Ali G back home in my suitcase but my husband wouldn't let me.
If you are thinking about going here then just stop thinking and GO.

| said: This was my fourth visit to Marmaris, my third time staying at Club Atrium Apartments and, as always, everything was great. Room, although basic, was very clean and kept that way by daily maid service. Beds were changed twice during the week we were there.
Customer care, Lorraine & Mustafa, were always very helpful.
Staff in restaurant/bars, Little Mustafa, Sex Bomb, Sinan, Ibo, Ozzy and Jack, to name but a few, as always were very friendly and helpful.
The Cuba Bar has now been enclosed and the doors are closed at about midnight so, if you do want an early night, there's hardly any noise now as it's obviously been sound-proofed.
Also, can recommend the aromatherapy massage. Cost was £18 for one hour full body massage. Very relaxing. The Turkish Bath (£10 I think!) is also a good experience.
Food in the Havana restaurant was very good, although we did try various other places.
There was entertainment every evening which, on the whole was very good, although it was a little heavy on the karaoke (3 times during the week).
The beach is a leisurely 15/20 minute walk away or a 5 minute journey on the Dolmus (local bus) which cost 1 Turkish Lira (40p).
This is ideal accommodation to stay in if you want to be a little distant from the lively music etc down by the beach front which goes on until about 4a.m.
All in all, an excellent holiday.

| said: we arrived at club atrium on 15 june 2007 for 7nights but wished we had booked for 14 nts cuz it was fantastic. the hotel was basic but lovely and clean and the staff were very pleasant and couldnt do enough for us the food was lovely we had breakfast every morning at the yes sir bar 99p for agood sized breky and not far from the hotel. we ate out at different places most nts but every meal was nice no complaints about the food, the entertainment was ok but could be better but if you have kids its great for them theyve got lots to do. ozzy was the best at entertaining around the pool with all the games. the only downside is that you have to pay for the aircon i thought that was a rip off cuz they no you need it and just seem to get money out of you anyway they can. but anyway fantastic hotel going back again the end of august 2007 vee,paul,daniel,kev,sue
