Risus Resort Hotel Kuşadasi

From the moment we stepped into Risus Hotel, we knew we were in for something special. Tucked away from the city’s chaos yet close enough to explore, this place truly lives up to its name — Risus means laughter, and that’s exactly what filled our days here. The staff were more than just helpful; they felt like old friends who knew exactly when you needed a fresh towel, a local tip, or just a warm smile. Our room was spotless, with a cozy balcony that caught the morning sun just right for coffee and quiet moments. Breakfast was a delight — fresh pastries, local cheeses, and the kind of coffee that makes you linger a little longer at your table. One evening, we joined the small garden gathering hosted by the hotel — fairy lights, live acoustic music, and new friends from around the world. Magical! If you’re looking for a place that feels like a cheerful sanctuary after a day of adventure, Risus Hotel is it. We left with happy hearts, lighter bags (thanks to the amazing shopping tips!), and a promise to return. Highly recommended for travelers who believe that laughter is the best souvenir. 🌟✨

Loved every moment here! Super friendly staff 👏, cozy rooms 🛏️, and yummy breakfast 🥐☕. The garden nights with music were magical 🎶🌙. Can’t wait to come back! 💙🌟 #HappyPlace

I stayed here recently and was shocked and appalled. The place is filthy. So to start we arrived at the hotel and were brought to our room, the room wasn't great but we spent a lot of money for what was meant to be a *5 star* hotel started very badly. The room was a disgrace. Dirty, ants all over the floor, in the bed, they were everywhere so me and my girlfriend said we are going back to reception to change the room. We got back to the reception area and changed the room, the nightshift team in reception are very nice, very helpful its just a shame everywhere else is bad. So we got a new room, not bad, much better than what we got originally so we went to sleep. Woke up the next morning to see what the breakfast is like and the food isn't great, there is a big choice of food but not a lot of it. A lot of people would take a lot and there wouldn't be much left for someone else. The lunch was the same, the chips were never cooked properly. Always soggy. The staff not friendly at all. Never coke zero. I always asked for coke zero and always got full sugar coke. The place didn't have a lot of options when it came to the food and drink department, the watermark is ok, the pools are big, plenty of choices for kids but the big pool closes at 5pm for cleaning, even though the cleaning doesn't start till around 10pm. Who closes a swimming pool at 5pm? Anyway the beach next to the hotel is very nice. We spent most of our time there or eating out because the food wasn't great. I decided then on Thursday that I will give the food another go because it couldn't be that bad all week. But soon after I felt very sick, pain in my stomach is horrible, puking and stuck to the toilet for the full day friday, we had a jeep safari tour booked and we couldn't even attend because I couldn't move from the toilet, money gone from my pocket. The woman that was cleaning our room, she was very nice. Always helpful. The WiFi there is non existent. I said it to them sunday that it doesn't work, they told me they will reset the WiFi and I heard that excuse for the full week. I had to ring my phone service and purchase a data pack. I loved Turkey, the shopping, the excursions and the beach but the hotel was a real let down, no entertainment at night either. The one time we saw a kids disco but there wasn't many kids there so that will tell you enough. I have never left a bad review in my life and I absolutely hate doing this but after the food poisoning and feeling sick still 4 days later I can't just do nothing. So the moral of the story is maybe choose a different hotel to this one as its not what it seems in the pictures.
