In general, both in Marmaris itself and in its environs there are many amazing objects with a wonderful history. Most of them do not even know those who have come here several times to rest. The narrow cobbled streets of this city, the fortress built in the sixteenth century, the tomb of the famous Sarian, etc. - all this attracts those who are already tired of the beaches.

Overview
It would seem that choosing a hotel is not difficult. However, the success of the vacation depends on how well to do this. Indeed, without good service, friendly staff, delicious food and a soft bed, without which tourists do not feel comfortable, the rest will not be complete. However, this does not mean at all that, staying in a three-star hotel, a person will be deprived of all this. After all, the same economy class hotels must also comply with the standards and fully serve guests.
The best five-star Marmaris hotels are Club Munamar, Ideal Prime Beach and Marti Resort. The rating is based on the feedback of those people who have already visited them. Prices for them in the highest season range from eighty thousand rubles for two for a stay of seven days with meals on the concept of "all inclusive".
Of the four-star hotels, tourists most often choose Art Mari, Caprice Beach and Halici Semera Hotel HV-2. All of them are located on the shore and provide a fairly wide list of entertainment. Prices for holidays in hotels of this category are somewhat lower. With a preliminary reservation, it is possible to purchase trips for two starting from forty thousand rubles (with a full food package).
Most of all tourists come to three-star hotels. There are a lot of them, and they are located mainly on the shore. Emre Beach, Begonville, Adler, Diana Club - this is not a complete list of places where those who prefer a budget vacation can stay. Room rates per person per day can cost from five hundred rubles. However, such prices for tours are not so common, so vouchers must be booked in advance. Therefore, in calculating your vacation, it is better to proceed from the cost of a thousand rubles. Moreover, the most comfortable and cozy "luxury" class rooms in hotels of this category will, of course, cost a little more.
All three-star Marmaris hotels have both advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, the search must be approached competently and well in advance, only in this case it will be possible to find the most optimal and suitable option. Among these hotels, the Intermar Hotel 3 * (Dalaman, Marmaris) is quite popular.
