Selcuk Hotels with Balcony

One of the best - if not THE best - hotel experience/s we ever had!!! ❤️ This small and cute hotel is something like a jewel! The one staff we met was adorable and so kind and caring that we felt right at home and even felt sorry that after only one night we had to leave for our next spot to visit! The hotel is gorgeous, the service impeccable, the breakfast!!! OMG!!! Just look at the pictures and you'll know what I mean! The breakfast was a piece of art made with love 💕 But, originally, the hotel is called Ephesus Hotel and Art Gallery, because all the sculptures you can see on the pictures were made by the owner - it vibes so well with the whole Ephesus area and it's beautiful ancient buildings, ruins, ... We got a nice upgrade to a bigger room that we could directly leave through a door to the inner courtyard where breakfast was served - super convenient! The courtyard was so peaceful that we felt like hearing ancient whispers coming from all around us... So much history!!! So much to see and having this wonderful hotel as the base to discover from was the best choice we could make! No need to mention that the room was simple but very nice and clean, comfy and big bed, nice lighting, spacey bathroom with very modern standard. Aircon as well, but we preferred to use the big fan on the ceiling instead ... There was a little fridge in the room and the beverages inside were free to take, so we were happy about the water after a hot and sunny day ... ☀️ Also, whenever we were on the way in or out, we were offered coffee, tea, water, juice, fruits ... you can see the fruit plate that we happily enjoyed as a mid-day snack ... If you ever visit Selçuk and Ephesus Ancient Town - and you should because it's ABSOLUTELY AMAZING - you should definitely book one, or even better two or three days at Ephesus Hotel and Art Gallery!!! Btw, it's also in easily walkable distance to the Ephesus Archeological Museum, the İsa Bey Mosque, St. Jean Church, the Ayasuluk Citadel, ... Another great plus was the fact that we could park the car right in front of the hotel. Last but not least, we received a beautiful little gift from the hotel employee who was taking care of us so kindly - she had sculptured the little elephant that you can see on the last picture by herself! A very special gift for us! 🎁 ❤️

The hotel itself is exuist, and the views and nature are simply breathtaking. Our room was spacious and well furnished with huge balcony. Spending evenings on the pool to observe sunset was very pleasant experience. Breakfasts are very tasty and each day you can find something special. The only thing is that once we checked in apart from the key to the room we haven't received any information about the facilities also even about the meals rules (breakfast even!) and we had to seek that info from the restaurant staff (not everyone speaks English). It is not hard to get to the hotel if you simply follow the instructions they've kindly sent us via WhatsApp.

During the Turkey trip, we stayed in 4 hotels and the Livia Garden Hotel was the best. Hotel is cozy and clean. Then environment comfortable and warm. The staff are kind and helpful. They recommended a restaurant for me, “Mekan”. It’s great! Good price, vibe and foods. Erdem told me that I forgot to pick up my camera after I left. Great thanks , Erdem! Highly recommend this hotel to everyone! Livia Garden Hotel 雖然開了5年，但所有物品都好新。酒店雖然不大，不過入到酒店和房間都好舒服，很溫暖。酒店的設計和裝飾都好靚。早餐在花園位置，對住泳池，風景一流！員工都好好人！老闆介紹了酒店附近的一間餐飯”MEKAN”好好食！想不到這個小鎮有間咁好食，而且裝修不錯的餐廳！

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.

Our group of five people stayed at the hotel by car. The hotel is simple, quiet and tidy, and the breakfast is very good. The next day we found that the tire pressure of the rented car was less than 160, and we found the store owner to ask for help. The boss did not say anything very enthusiastically to help us contact a car dealership, and personally took us to the car dealership. After checking, it was found that it was slow to spread gas. The boss took the initiative to contact the car rental agency and repaired it. Since the leak point is near the car keel, we are not assured to ask the car rental agency to change the car. Because the voice is not good, it is not easy to communicate. Thanks to the hotel owner on our behalf. The car rental agency is finally communicating repeatedly the next day. We changed the new car rental before we planned to travel, without delaying the trip. We are very grateful to the hotel owner for his warm service and patient and proactive help. The friendliness of the boss gave us the same feeling as home, leaving an unforgettable impression. Thanks again to the hotel owner and service staff!

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.

1. The owner was very hospitable and enthusiastically introduced me to his restaurant and carpet shop. He also thoughtfully emailed me information about the official website for Ephesus in advance. Unfortunately, we were exhausted after a day of traveling, and after eating kebab for three or four days in Turkey, our stomachs were exhausted and we just wanted instant noodle soup. 😀 2. The fried eggs and jam for breakfast were delicious. 3. The hotel is very close to the ancient city of Ephesus. After visiting, you can check in and rest within 3 kilometers. 4. The room is on the second floor, and there's no elevator, so it was a bit difficult for a single woman to carry luggage.

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.

Good location in the old city, easy to walk to the mosque and Hagia Sophia, close to the Istanbul Archaeological Museum, and very convenient to take a tram to the ferry port. There is a machine for buying bus cards and withdrawing UnionPay cash at the door. We arrived at the hotel early and the hotel was considerate enough to let us check in early. The hotel has an elevator for easy luggage transportation. The only thing is that the room is a bit small.

An unexpected insider tip for travelers to Ephesus! This small hotel is just a 5-minute walk from the ruins of the Temple of Artemis on one side, and at the foot of the Church of St. John on the other. Enjoy a delicious and varied breakfast on the terrace above. The view stretches across the vast expanse beyond the ruins of Artemis to Ephesus, about two kilometers away.
