We visited in the off season but were welcomed and treated like we were the most important guests in the world - literally welcomed at the gate when we arrived! We loved the look, feel, decor and every little warm detail of this hotel. Our room was lovely - we loved the sunny window daybed! The aircon worked and we could perfectly control the temperature in our room (very important when traveling in the heart of winter!) Everything was nice and neat - very clean. Our mattress and pillows were perfect! A very comfortable stay! We had dinner at the hotel restaurant and two breakfasts - the food was AMAZING! Their service was next level! We truly enjoyed every mouthful! The family were all simply amazing, welcoming, attentive, friendly, helpful and just made us feel like family ourselves! The warmth we experienced is something you don't often find and it really made this hotel very special! We arranged a private guide with the hotel to take us to Ephesus Archeological site and all the other significant historical places we wanted to visit in and around Selcuk, and he was just the greatest guide - so knowledgeable! We thouroughly enjoyed the day and learnt so much - not only about the sites we visited but also about Turkey in general. Truly fascinating and an unforgettable experience. We also arranged our airport transfer with the hotel (a family friend) - again it was well organised, on time and a very comfortable, ride. Had a lovely converstation with the driver on the way. Everyone who crossed our path during our stay was either family or close family friends - you cannot ask for a more authentic experience from a family run boutique hotel! We will most definitely stay here agin and would absolutely recommend this hotel. The only critisism would be that there was no wardrobe or drawers and only a tiny rack with 3 or 4 clothes hangers to hang clothes. So we lived out of our suitcases that took up quite a bit of floor space in the room. It is a boutique hotel so we understand space is limited, but a small wardrobe where the hanging rack was and a set of drawers (instead of a desk) would have made quite a difference. Also, we asked for a room with a firecplace when we booked, which we got, however no firewood was provided even when promised it would be brought to the room, so we did not have that romantic snugging up in front of the fireplace experience. (We understand things don't always go to plan, but we stayed two nights so if they did not manage it for the first night for some reason, it would have been appreciated if they made the effort to have it ready in our room on the second night). Oh and the toilet lid does not stay up - was a bit funny at times expecially when using the loo in the dark and fogetting that the lid would be right back down before you could sit down. Small things that would have made an amazing stay, a perfect stay!

This is an exceptional hotel. The staff are attentive and very friendly. The rooms are immaculate and beautifully decorated. The restaurant and bar have great atmosphere and serve delicious food - both our dinner and breakfast the next morning were amazing! The hotel is in the ‘old town’ of Selcuk. We easily got a park nearby but staff will help if you’re not so lucky. A short walk to St John’s Basilica. My only regret is that we didn’t stay longer.

It's hard for me to put into words how wonderful this amazing hotel was for us. Besides being absolutely beautiful inside and out, with gorgeous Turkish rugs decorating every room and colorful flowers all over the patio, the staff is the best ever. These people were so kind, so attentive, so helpful, so good at answering our every question and making us comfortable, and so willing to do whatever was necessary to make our stay a pleasant one. I'm not used to this kind of courtesy, but it was wonderful to experience! Our room was spacious and beautifully decorated, we had a large bathroom, a comfortable bed and it was quiet. I can't say enough good things about the restaurant. Delicious food for breakfast and dinner, with a patio perfect for a sunset dinner. And if you go, don't miss the basement stores run by Jamal, who has the most amazing selection of GORGEOUS and authentic Turkish rugs from all over the country. He is a professional and an expert in how to care for these masterpieces. The hotel is within walking distance of most sights and Ephesus is a 5 minute taxi drive.
