Good buffet dinner and breakfast. Willingness to change our room when it was found that there was a bird nest right by our AC outlet - the babies WOULD HAVE DIED if the AC had been used. I communicated with the management, and they assure me that the pipe will be deflected, or the room not used until the baby birds have flown.

The hotel had a fabulous garden complete with tortoises which we enjoyed very much . The location was good .The room was small but clean and the bed was comfortable enough . The hotel had plenty of charm and overall we enjoyed our stay . This is not an expensive choice of hotel and represented good value for the money.

The apartment was very quiet, the balcony offered a view to remember fondly, the people in town so friendly and helpful. We ate twice at the favourite restaurant Ali recommended and we did not regret it. We travelled to Ephesus and selected the inclusive ticket which was 52 euros and it was worth every penny. Plan 4 to 5 hours, go as early as possible to avoid the crowds. We were there at 8:30 and the Firmin the parolier! By the time the crowds started we had walked the entire sight and avoided the heat.

We spent 3 days - one day in Selcuk ( there are 3 sites including Ephesus Museum worth one day) and one day doing Ephesus with a private guide( excellent and picked by the hote) and make sure you do the Terraces( many tours don't include it) and finally you can do 3 amazing sites 1-2 hours away - Piriene, Milietus and Didyma ( very few people do this but worth it). The hotel staff can help you

Smaller and less touristy with locals attentive to your need and willingness to help. Ephesus Archeological Park was the highlight of the visit. There is no dearth of choices for eating - from local Turkish dishes to Burger King. Selchuk is more convenient to stay as beginning from morning you can at your leisurely pace cover St John's Basilica, Artemis Temple, Ephesus Archeological Park and Virgin Mary's House all in one day.

we stayed in Sirince.
we stayed in Sirince. An antique village in the mountains outside of Selcuk. A 19th Century experience in small town Turkey. Bring good shoes for steep hills and uneven ground. Good natural foods from local farms. Expect an authentic experience.

I’m not sure why anyone from away would come to Selcuk...
I’m not sure why anyone from away would come to Selcuk unless they were there to see the antique ruins of Ephesus. That is certainly why we came. If you are in Turkey- I suggest it is a must see.
Ephesus is one of the most excavated sites in the world. It is humbling to see how much as a civilized culture we have forgotten- or forgot and have had to rediscover over the millenniums.
That said, Selcuk had decent dining options, and other attractions like the Ephesus Museum (where the artifacts are housed), and the Saint John Basilica which are fantastic. Both are blocks from the Akanthus hotel (which I reviewed separately and highly recommend .

Lovely town, the people were very friendly and helpful.
Lovely town, the people were very friendly and helpful. Easy to go around. Saturday has a fruit/veg, utensils market behind the bus station. Bus station in the centre of the town. Nice restaurants and good food and prices.
A truly family run and family style small hotel in Selcuk, near Ephesus. We really enjoyed the helpful and very friendly welcome and all the small, honest, personal touches that we experienced during our stay: an unexpected glass of white wine while we were swimming in the refreshing pool in the courtyard, a just in time cup of Turkish Coffee when I was working on my laptop in the dining room, and also the very delicious and plentiful home cooked breakfasts. Very well done.
The hotel has a very unique turkish decor with some antique furniture (not for everyone, but I liked it). This puts you in a bit of a exotic atmosphere (which I think is desirable when travelling in Turkey).
The breakfast was one of the best experiences I had in the whole country. Not a buffet, a beautiful table of assorted dishes is served. The manager and his wife are extremely kind and friendly to everyone. They are perfect hosts.
Wonderful friendly hosts who spoke very good English. Perfect location. Upgraded to a larger room with a view of the central square. Very clean and warm (especially in the very cold weather). Hot water for tea available all day. Fantastic shower - not so easy to find in Turkey. Early check-in. Great value Turkish breakfast. If I go back to Selcuk I would definitely stay here every time.
Such a beautiful hotel, nicely decorated with a cute garden and pool. Staff were lovely and attentive, we also got an upgrade for our room. Very comfortable bed and nice shower. Perfect location in Selcuk and easy to get to Ephesus as well as driving to any other place. Breakfast was beyond our expectations- everything freshly made, not buffet style
The location is unbeatable, very central, close to the bus station and the Ephesus Museum, which I enjoyed visiting. The hotel staff were nice and helped me with everything I needed, including planning for my tour and bus leaving Selcuk on the second day. At the time I visited, a hotel puppy was always hanging around the lobby which was so cute!
Wonderful hotel in a quiet location with a commanding view of Selcuk and the castle. It was pleasant to sit out on the terrace among the plants and the view. Delicious Turkish breakfast. Okyay is a very attentive host, easily engaging us in conversation about the region, offering suggestions and help, all with a good sense of humor.
This family owned hotel is one if not the best we ever stayed at! I would recommend it to anyone and would return when visiting the area. The service they provide is best to none. The location is great and the property is new, squeaky clean and very well maintained. but the best part are the people! Thank you so much for everything!
Everything! The breakfast was delicious, beds were very comfortable and the staff was attentive down to every detail. We went on 2 all-day excursions with their driver Muharam was the best! He is a very safe driver, fun and informative, and accommodating. If you’re traveling to Selçuk, I can’t recommend the Akanthus more highly!
Ilker is a fantastic host and provided lots of useful information about travelling in Selcuk and the rest of Turkey. Breakfast was delicious and served on the rooftop terrace. The pool and garden is shady and private - perfect for relaxing and cooling off. Bonus points for the friendly cats and dogs for us to pet.
Beautiful hotel centrally located in the heart of Selçuk, few steps walking to Basilica of St. Johns and few minutes driving to Ephesus, Temple of Artemis and other attractions. Very friendly owner, good breakfast, clean and comfortable room/beds. I wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommended.
As for the hotel nice boutique place. The room and the hostess were good. Not much facilities to expect. Since the city is very small. You can do most of the sightseeing on a day trip from any other location. Not much to dislike on the hotel but more between selcuk vs other towns
Everything. The property is gorgeous , the staff is friendly. The breakfast was amazing , probably the best we had in Turkey. The beds are very comfortable and the shower is great ! Erdem went out of his way to make us feel comfortable . We will hopefully be back in the future
Amazing breakfast, everything handmade, organic and bought locally. Best breakfast we had in Turkey!!
The rooms were beautifully decorated, comfy beds and hot showers. Beautiful historical house. The owner was very helpful and kind.
Amazing vineyard location, not too far from Ephesus. Felt very exclusive and not like anything else I’ve experienced in Turkey. Hotel staff were very honest when we left some belongings in the room by accident.
An absolutely charming hotel. The staff took so much care to create a delightful experience. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated. Breakfast was exceptional - the best we had in Turkeye!
