The whole thing always seemed to be out of place to me
Just out of curiosity does anyone know when it was built ?? It must have looked even more out of place in the olden days of Çalış

years ago I remember when it closed very quick and the loads of air tours holiday makers and others were moved out all over the place , after a few years it opened up again a huge bar was built by the main road and other things were updated then in later years it closed again and only a Turkish bath was open in the front left corner then it closed yet again , it has been a horrid looking place for years time to pull it down I feel and build low rise buildings and give it a smart open to the public new look to the surrounding area , alas I don't see that happening

Iv heard over the years ( as I’m sure a lot of other members have too) re the derelict houses in Calis that the same owner owns this hotel and something about he died and there is or was legal or family probs with the family hence why noth lots of properties have fallen into disrepair, but there again we all know the ole Calis rumor mill don’t we! :)
-
Agree with Phil, it must have looked ridiculous in semi-rural Calis back in the day :o
I too recall the big refurb - after a long period of closure - and it went from being a fairly nasty building to a fairly nasty building with a couple of coats of paint and an arch. The reviews following the reopening were almost exclusively dire.
I honestly can't see any viable future for that building as a hotel that would be cheaper than demolition and starting again. As it comes right to the corner of Scarlett Bar, it could become a lovely addition to Calis if removed and reworked.

I remember seeing an advert for the place after the "refurb" and the ariel pictures made it look as if it occupied half of Çalis :)

Heard a similar account about the Little Venice complex along the canal.Does anyone know when that was built?
-
Where is the Little Venice complex Mr Badger or is that what those derelict houses are called?
I wish something could be done about those houses we often say what we would like to see there in their place I’d love a Sok or Bim and a nice Turkish cafe or pide cafe :)

The Orient Hotel is in a perfect location for a family with children, you have got the water park just along the road then the lovely new park a bit further up the road , if it is made into a nice hotel im sure it would be very popular !! 8)

Or a nice apartment complex maybe. :)

Only open once in all our years going to Calis.It was full of AI Russians who brought nowt to the local economy.
My view is that the site is too big for one hotel and too big to fill with apartments as that would flood the local area with too many tourists for the infrastructure.
A small low rise hotel,a few apartments and some nice landscaping and public area would be good IMHO
