An excellent stay for visiting the ancient site at Selcuk and Ephesus.
Pros:

Situated near the centre of Selcuk, it was very handy for visiting all the main archaeological sites which could be reached on foot except for Ephesus for which we had to drive. The hotel is very comfortable indeed and the breakfasts were excellent. The staff were all very friendly, welcoming and helpful. There are some good restaurants nearby and it's not far to the city centre.

Cons:

There is no onsite parking and you have to park in the small streets nearby, which is not good for the security of the car, although we had no problems.

Clean and comfortable and near all the important sites within Selcuk
Pros:

Clean, comfortable hotel in a quiet neighborhood. It's a short walk (up and down hills), very convenient to all of the important sites within Selcuk, such as the Temple of Artemis ruins, the Basilica of St. John, and the archaeology museum (although Selcuk is a small city and everything is convenient to everything else within the city) (this only refers to the sites within Selcuk and does not include Ephesus and the Virgin Mary house which are too far to walk). The staff was very friendly and very helpful, with coffee, tea and cake available throughout the day. There are plenty of seating areas to relax throughout the hotel, so if you want to sit down and relax, you are not limited to your room.

Cons:

There was a plumbing issue with my room (limited to my room) that the hotel was working to correct. I think this was a one-time issue and not a comment on the hotel as a whole, but I'm being asked to list what I didn't like. Breakfast buffet options were a little limited if you are a true carnivore, although they do have an extensive list of options for made-to-order eggs if you like eggs in the morning.

Hotel excepcional Selçuk
Pros:

El hotel Akanthus y su personal han hecho que nuestra estancia en Efeso sea memorable.
El hotel está impecable, tanto por la limpieza, como por el detalle de la decoración. Te hace sentir en casa.
Las habitaciones amplias y super funcionales. Con todas las comodidades.
La ubicación es magnífica, muy cerca del templo de Artemisa, de la Basílica de San Juan y de la Mezquita de Isa Bey. Y próxima también a una zona de restaurantes bastante recomendables.
La piscina incluso fuera de temporada estival se agradece, poder relajar los pies en el agua después de un día de largas caminatas, no tiene precio.
Y por terminar, el personal del hotel es increíble, Tanto Soner como Muharrem, son especialmente amables, nos han hecho recomendaciones excepcionales y ayudado en todo lo que hemos necesitado.

Cons:

Nada, todo supero mis expectativas.
