Villa Ephesus

Wow!! We loved our room and the breakfasts. This is not a big hotel which makes it a delight to meet fellow travelers over breakfast. It’s very well located on the waterfront. There are lots of stairs so you’ll definitely be able to keep your steps up! Don’t faint at the sight of multiple cruise ships - they’re all there for Ephesus. Think of your stay here as a fine retreat and a place from which to carefully plan your trips to Ephesus, the Artemisian and elsewhere (including Sirince?) And don’t miss out on an opportunity to take a dip in the pool if it’s a hot day!

We had a wonderful experience at this hotel. The room was very comfortable and the most special thing was the genuine care of our hosts. Okan showed us our room and also prepared a very detailed itinerary for us to better enjoy our day. He also told us about the design and decoration effort at the hotel, which is cozy while also adding a great ambience. The breakfast is very special and different everyday. All kinds of Turkish specialties are prepared every morning. Anytime we had a question or request, everyone in the hotel stepped in to help us out. From parking advise to doing laundry, we really felt they care for the well being of all guests.

Beautiful place, everything clear. Clase to the coast and close to great Stones and restaurants. The personal is very nice and always be there for me and mh family, the breakfast was really good, verdad traditional. Beds very comfortable, good decoration.

Lovely hotel that used to be a collection of small houses situated in the old town area of Kusadasi. Spotlessly clean with an exceptional Turkish breakfast.Staff are excellent,very polite and nothing is too much trouble. Couple of things to note are first the parking, the hotel doesn't have a designated car park and you park (admittedly close by) in a side street, although you will have a short incline to walk back to your car and back to the hotel after going out for the day.Do not worry about your luggage as the hotel staff will be more than happy to help with that. And lastly the water in the plunge pool is shall we say "Bracing" might have been the time of year or maybe it isn't in direct sunlight for long enough in the day,or I might be a lightweight.Ymmv. Other than what's mentioned thoroughly recommended and in an excellent location with easy access to the town and promenade area and would happily stay there again.

I stayed here at June with my boyfriend. I only give 2 starts for breakfast and for the pool .the pillows in the room were so big and uncomfy we didn’t use any pillows because of that. And when we asked for smaller ones they said they got standart type but that was horrible I had neckaches.and the bed had a railing my feet touched it while I was sleeping that also annoyed me.

So the first thing that i have to warn you about is the 40 or so irregular steps that lead to this hotel, so please dont go if you have dodgy knees. We felt so sorry for the young bell boys who had to carry our luggage! Once inside the hotel grounds, its quite lovely, but it is a little strange. Built on the hillside, some areas of the hotel have a nice view, sometimes blocked by other buildings. There arent many/any spaces to hang out , and have a drink. The rooms are also a little weird. Missing basic things. There was nowhere to hang our clothes or even towels properly. Or racks to place our suitcases. Two young boys seemed to be the only people working. At reception, serving breakfasts, carrying our bags. There were really nice and helpful. I did wonder where the other staff were. We only saw one woman when we handed back our keys and she rushed in to check we hadnt stolen anything. Not likely given the rooms werent exactly stylish! The beds, pillows were good. The breakfasts however I must add were exceptional. So much food, lovely breads, great mezze. (but dont ask for a packed breakfast, you 'll get 2 buns and carton of juice)
