Derici Hotel

The best point about this hotel is the location, right on the sea front, everything you need is within walking distance and you get a beautiful 360 view from the rooftop pool. Yes, the rooms are a bit old fashioned but the communal areas of the hotel have obviously been improved and perhaps the bedrooms are next? Each room has a fridge, TV, free Wi-Fi and free air conditioning which actually I expected to pay extra for which I’ve had to do previously in turkey. People complaining about the view must be either spending too much time in their rooms or not able to ask reception nicely for a better room. We actually asked to change rooms after the second night because there was a noticeable smell of the drains coming from the bathroom. The cleaner & maintenance man were very helpful and tried to rectify this but we decided it would be better to move and this was done without hassle and with help from the porter who moved our bags for us. We paid for breakfast but didn’t sample it as we always slept in. So we went up to the pool for a toasted sandwich instead which was reasonable. The pool area was spotless and looked like it had been re-tiled, the barman is over worked and could do with some help but he keeps the place very clean and tidy. Reception staff were very helpful, nothing was too much trouble and the porter even weighed our suitcases for us going home. We would definitely stay here again, I prefer smaller hotels in a good location to huge all inclusive resorts. Thank you Derici Hotel for a wonderful stay, we will be back next year 🥰
