- Derici Hotel

This comfortable city hotel is located in the centre of Kusadasi, right across the street from the seafront promenade, offering wonderful views over the port. Refurbished in 2008, the hotel features excellent facilities for relaxation, including a spa with Turkish Bath, sauna, and fitness centre as well as a rooftop swimming pool and sun terrace. Guests can wake up to an open breakfast buffet in the morning, and later enjoy treats in the popular patisserie on the front terrace. There are a variety of shops, cafรฉ bars and restaurants nearby, and public transport and a taxi rank are also available close to the hotel entrance. The nearest beach is a short stroll along the promenade, while the famous Ladies Beach is 2.5 kilometres away.
My first time visiting Turkey & booked to go to Kusadasi for my partners 65th Birthday treat - he had always wanted to see Ephesus...after reading quite a few negative reviews about the Derici ( theft from the rooms,outdated decor & even illness caused by uncleanliness & food poisioning ) before our holiday,I wasn't really sure what to expect however,we were in room 106 around the back of the hotel with views of the municipal building & it's green grassy area with sculptures aligning the central walkway.Our balcony was on a corner so we could see onto the sea,the cruise ships & the hand of Peace sculpture.The hotel is well maintained,super clean,the staff are polite & welcoming.Breakfast is buffet style with hot cooked varieties of food,fruits,salad vegetables,meats,cheeses,lots of different breads & pastries,cereals,yoghurt,jams,spreads,fruit juices,coffees ( machines) & different teas to choose from.The views from the breakfast rooms are spectacular & the waiting staff have a smile waiting to greet you each day - so welcoming & helpful.Our cleaner on the first floor ( Laila ) was so lovely also! Room cleaned daily,bedding changed if you requested,fresh towels also.There is a pump dispenser of hand soap beside the wash basin,a shower gel/shampoo one in the shower cubicle & a hairdryer in the bathroom also.Safety deposit box costs 100 turkish lira per day to use and advisable for peace of mind when being mindful of any valuables,documents & passports. I hope i've covered everything here! No negatives here! No complaints whatsoever about the Derici.One more thing - the rooftop pool - small but compact,clean - plenty of sunloungers ( take your own towels as the hotel does not provide then nor does it allow you to use the towels provided in your room ) parasols aplenty & spectacular views to boot! The Derici was fab for us & a sanctuary to escape the relentless harassment from the sales people in the shopping areas - that was a huge dislike for me! So,lets wrap this review up - hope i've covered everything ๐
Location was amazing right in the centre of town,hotel is opposite the beach and marina, you can see the cruise ships that dock there daily from your balcony. The hotel itself is spotless and the staff are very friendly and professional especially Ali who was on reception, he was very helpful and courteous at all times ,nothing was a problem to him. The rooms were clean and comfortable only complaint, the aircon could do with upgrades. I would recommend this hotel to friends and family and would definitely return.
Great hotel very kind nothing too much from staff this is my 6th time here service 5 star from breakfast to pool area to reception
First off I want to say that the location of this hotel is great. Itโs right on the front and near everything. The room was ok if not dated. Cleaner came every day and was very polite. The food was what let this hotel down. I am by no means a fussy eater so when Iโve paid for it Iโll almost force myself to eat. However it was so bad that after the second night we didnโt go back. The choice for hot food was 4 hot plates. This was either a meat stew or a fish stew.
After the second night my partner got food poisoning and was in bed the following day. I spoke to the staff and they just shrugged and said it wasnโt their food. On the last day whilst waiting for our checkout we got chatting to other couples who had also got food poisoning the same night. I had to go to a pharmacy and buy sickness tablets. Avoid the food at this hotel is all I can say. Plenty of great restaurants around and youโll spend a lot less than it did to pay for half board.
Excellent very good location you can walk anywhere staff is very helper rooms very clean breakfast very good top of roof sea view excellent hotels front of street walking area just front of sea very near cafes bars restorants hotel rooms very quite are we stay again this hotel yes yes defnetly thank you DERICI HOTEL ๐ฎ๐ช๐ฎ๐ช๐ฎ๐ช๐ฎ๐ชโค๏ธ๐โค๏ธโญโญโญโญโญ
