3-Star Hotels in Selcuk

We stayed in Ayasoluk hotel for three nights. We are very happy that we chose this hotel as our base hotel for traveling around Selcuk. The location is perfect. It’s less than 10 minutes walk from train station, bus and taxi station. You can walk to St. John Basilica and Ephesus Museum .  Also you can walk to bus station and take a mini bus to Ephesus Archaeological site for less than 10 minutes and TL30. A half day trip to the beautiful village of Sirince is highly recommended. You can take the morning bus from bus station in less than 20 minutes. You only pay TL 40 for one way. The hotel is very nice decorated, clean and comfortable. Staffs are very friendly and helpful. There’s a restaurant in the hotel and the view from the terrace is pretty nice. Breakfast is typical Turkish cuisine and is very healthy. I would come back for my next visit in the region.

Beautiful environment, attentive service, and the boss is very handsome! The orange tree in the yard was bearing fruit, and the boss gave us a few oranges. All the people we met in the town, including the hotel, were so kind. When we first arrived, we got lost and couldn't find the hotel. Someone came up to us and asked us, and told us that we should go to Livia Garden Hotel. Special thanks to everyone!

The owner was incredibly warm and friendly! We kept getting extra Turkish tea, and the breakfast was a very generous traditional Turkish breakfast. The hotel's location was fantastic—a five-minute walk from the train station, and right next to the Selçuk Castle ruins 🥺. Thank you, Turkey is truly a very romantic place; I met so many wonderful people, and the cats in the courtyard were super affectionate—they practically kept me entertained for three days!

The holiday price is more serious. The hotel location is not very close to the ancient city of Ephesus. The 240 meters given on Trip.com is even more nonsense. According to this 240 meters, you can't reach the ancient city of Ephesus. You still need to take a long way to the station to take the minibus. I personally suggest that it is best to live directly in Izmir. In the morning, you can take the train or take the minibus to Ephesus in Izmir. In the evening, you can also take the minibus or train back. The minibus is very convenient to leave the water. Izmir has a standardized hotel like Marriott and Renaissance, which is much more comfortable than living here. In addition, the hotels in Selcuk are basically changed from their own houses. The religious color is relatively heavy. The living is a bit strange. The road is not very good. There are many uphill and downhill. There are many stone roads. It is particularly tired to walk. You can occasionally see a taxi on the road. It is very inconvenient for people with luggage.

First of all, the place in Selcuk is really small, so no matter where you go to the hotel, it is not far from me. I came from the bus stop and walked for about 15 minutes, but pay attention! Take the road, the navigation will recommend the country road, no lights at night or scary. Secondly, I got to arrive at nearly nine o'clock in the back. The boss was very good. Waiting for me at the door. The next day, breakfast was very suitable for Chinese people because there was a tomato scrambled egg. It was delicious. Finally, I went to Ephesus to check out early. The boss can also store luggage for free. In short, the boss and the proprietress are very good people. In addition, the key is quite interesting ～

The location is particularly good, very close to the main street, but not in the downtown area, so quiet and tasteful, on the slopes of the hills, not too long, no problem with luggage. The room was bigger than I expected, the bathroom was clean and bright, and it was the biggest bathroom in my price. It is convenient to wash clothes in the bath. It is very convenient to go to the bus station museum. Breakfast is better than a good hotel in Istanbul, with Turkish specialties. The tomatoes are especially fresh and delicious, and the cantaloupe is especially delicious. Opposite is the ancient city ruins. I can eat at the bird's ruins in the morning, I still like this hotel.

The location is about three kilometers away from the ancient city of Ephesus. It is very convenient for us to drive by ourselves. The car is parked on the road and it is very safe. The B&B is not big, with a total of five rooms. The first floor is a bar and front desk. When we arrived, there were two young handsome guys at the front desk. They spoke good English and were very friendly and down-to-earth. They helped us take our luggage upstairs and left immediately. They were the only waiters who didn't ask for tips in the past few days in Turkey. The rooms are not big. You don't need to prepare your own slippers and toothbrush. It is very quiet at night and you can have a good sleep. However, at 6 o'clock in the morning, you can hear the sound of prayers from a nearby mosque. The best thing is the breakfast, which is rich in variety and reasonably matched. At this price, it is worth recommending.

The location is on the slope in front of the main road, the boss is friendly, and we gave us two postcards before leaving, wishing us a smooth trip. The top dining room and yard are beautifully furnished. Many rooms have swallow nests outside the door, and the environment is naturally fresh. The room is a bit small, you can settle down, I hope to put a kettle in the house in the future, convenient for tourists who need hot water, haha. The picture is for the bird to fly into the house.

Location is superb, it is right next to the Efes Museum. We had a car so it wasn’t a big deal for us to go to the ancient city and the Virgin Mary’s tomb but even if we hadn’t, there are plenty of choices of public transportation. You can even walk to the ruins of the ancient city. The breakfast was nice, the staff was sincere and helpful. The cafe next to the hotel has good tea. And there are a lot of shops and restaurants nearby. The castle is only a few hundreds away from the hotel.

It is a place to stay on a hill...at first I was shocked but we dragged ourselves until we got there (I recommend not having a big and heavy bag because you might roll down the hill lol). It is a simple place to stay without an elevator (so don't try to carry it yourself, girls). It is clean and located in front of the entrance to the ancient site. Walk up a bit more but believe me, if you are carrying your stuff here, if you walk here, don't try to stay somewhere else that is deeper than this. It is a hill, remember. There is free Wi-Fi, easy to connect to Wi-Fi, the reception is cute, welcoming, breakfast is provided on the rooftop, good view, beautiful, can take pictures. Note: The smell of the egret is a bit strong because they make their nests on high poles and trees, but it is not strong enough to affect anything. The cook will bring the food to serve, do not dare to enter the kitchen area, it is in their way (I did it and got scolded lol). Just sit still and if you want anything, call for plain water, orange juice, call the cook. There is only coffee that you can press yourself, girls. The food is Turkish breakfast style, like food for monks, including both savory and sweet dishes. The taste is delicious. There is only olives or something that we are not used to the taste. The service is impressive at every level. Before going back, you can leave your bags and go for a walk. It's easy. You can drag your bags down and walk slowly. It's 10000% easier than dragging your legs up. The outside of the accommodation is beautiful and pleasing to the eye. The inside is cool. The air conditioner is old but very cool.
