Back in the 60s, visitors to Disneyland enjoyed going into the rotating Carousel of Progress. That’s something the classic Disneyland Attraction shares with The Marmara Antalya- the hotel rotates!

Yes, you read that correctly. This hotel rotates 360 degrees and is the world’s only revolving hotel. The complete 'Revolving Loft' annex building moves with a full rotation of its 24 guest bedrooms, taking anywhere between 2 and 22 hours. For those worrying about motion sickness, fear not. The rotation is smooth. You might find yourself going to bed facing the oceanand waking up facing the pool!
This building is really a modern marvel. This 2750 ton building floats in a tank holding only 478 tons of water, with the three bottom floors completely submerged. The hotel also features the impressive living area called Tuti Floor, where guests can relax, grab a bite to eat, or just watch the view.
The rooms in the hotel are very spacious, and feature all the amenities of home. Guests have access to a private beach at the hotel and have pool access as well. All rooms feature large windows providing great views of the surrounding area. So just sit back, relax, and enjoy the view as the world rotates beneath you!
