Romantic Hotels in Selcuk

The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are large and stylishly decorated. The location is opposite the castle, and there are many places to eat around. The hotel is about a 10-minute walk from the Selcuk bus, which is very convenient. After we visited Ephesus, we walked 3 kilometers back to the hotel. It only takes about 15 minutes to walk to the temple ruins.

We travel quite a bit and can tell you that Akanthus was one of the best experiences we have ever had, anywhere, in a locally owned and operated boutique-style hotel. The owners (two very kind brothers) and the staff were hospitable and genuinely committed to professional excellence. They have thought of virtually every detail to make their guests have a welcome and comfortable experience. The rooms are nicely decorated and outfitted for modern travelers... and, most importantly, CLEAN. As we were staying for more than a week, we wiped the drawers before putting our things in them... and we found them already completely clean. No negative surprises. Have you ever looked a beautiful green hillside (like in Scotland) and when you get closer you find weeds and thistles? In other words, something that looks good in the photos and then when you get there it is not what you expected. Not this place... Akanthus lives up to expectations. In fact, it _exceeded_ our expectations. Their warm and helpful staff went the ”extra mile” to make sure we had what we needed. As we know, this side of heaven nothing will ever be perfect. That is why I do not write that it was perfect. It was, however, truly professionally excellent. Akanthus is an oasis for all its guests, from check-in to the nightly cake and warm drink, to the daily healthy breakfast and coffee, to the service throughout the day. Their small pool was a welcome place to cool off during hot summer days. We give our highest recommendation to whomever is reading this. Stay here when you go to Ephesus.

The hotel is small in size and belongs to the nature of a high-end homestay. Compared with the previous homestays, although the price is slightly higher, the room is clean and hygienic. Toiletries are very easy to use and towels are soft. The pool water is also very clean. I can feel that I am operating with care, the labor cost of consumables is there, and the price is a little higher and it is good value for money. The service staff are very friendly. The front desk may also be the hotel manager. It seems to be called Adam. It will be simple Chinese. It gives a lot of play suggestions. It is very valuable for tourists. Overall it is recommended, it is very convenient to go to the scenic spot or eat.
