Extremely helpful host had some great recommendations that made for a memorable stay. Clean tidy room, simple pleasant breakfast on the roof top with expansive views to the Ayasuluk Castle.

The owner was the most helpful and kind of hosts. From the excellent breakfast to organising a day tour for me, he did everything to make my stay special. Very highly recommended!
We had an amazing 2 night stay. The hosts were extremely friendly and super informative. The hotel was very clean and well laid out with an great courtyard and pool. Breakfast was roof top and located 5 min walk from attractions and bus and train station. Great market and restaurants. Highly recommended staying there.
Great stay here. Staff were excellent, very helpful. We were a family of four with two children aged 9 and 11. Pool was great and clean. Excellent stay

Host was extremely friendly and helpful, ensuring our stay was pleasant.
Great family run place in the centre of Selcuk. Very friendly hosts with all information about the area. Large very clean room with comfortable beds and a big shower. Cleaned every day as needed. Breakfast on the foof was plentiful. Pool was so beautiful in the garden, I wish we could have stayed longer!
Very nice place to stay while visiting Ephesus.
The swimming pool and the garden area is a little paradise.
The owner is very nice and will help you with your plans in the area.
Fantastic stay. It is worth staying here just to get the tips & local knowledge from Selcuk’s best host. Great location. Great breakfast. Would definitely recommend & would stay again.
Nazar Hotel was the first stop for us in Turkey and we really enjoyed it. The room was great, the breakfast was fantastic, and the staff were very knowledgeable, providing a lot of background and useful information. Additionally, the area was very walkable with good options for dining around us. We really enjoyed our stay here!
The owner/front desk is very nice and gave us very helpful suggestions about the attractions, transportation options and dinning selections upon arrival. The breakfast is prepared based on our schedule. Nice backyard and hotel settings overall.
The proprietor was kindly forthcoming with excellent advice on Ephesus and the surrounding sights. The 8am arrival to Ephesus was especially helpful. Great value.
We really enjoyed our three night stay at the Nazar Hotel.
The owner was very accommodating, and knowledgeable about the area. Great information on how to get to and from the sites as well as the best times to go.
The traditional Turkish breakfast was lovey and again very accommodating with time so we could beat the crowds to the sites.
Very walkable to many shops, a great Hamam, and multiple restaurants.
I would definitely recommend and I would certainly stay here again myself.
Recommended! Family run Hotel. From the time we arrived felt welcome. Comfortable and clean room. Excellent shower and bathroom. The roof top breakfast was a great way to start the day. Ilker gave us very good advice, made our stay in Selcuk memorable. Thanks👍
As others have noted, Nazar Hotel is outstanding! We were able to upgrade our room from a Standard to Deluxe and it made all the difference. This room was much larger, it had comfortable seating and a very pleasant view over the pool. Ilker was a superb host who made us feel very welcome and gave us useful tips and excellent breakfasts. Highly recommended.

Hosts are wonderful and very knowledgeable. Our room was very small and lacking any amenities. Breakfast was less than average relative to the 8 other Turkish hotels we have stayed at. Location is central to all the attractions and restaurants/stores, but the hotel is down a backstreet in an old neighborhood. We had to haul our luggage up and down a very narrow staircase.
First of all, the reason this property is so highly rated is the staff, starting with the owner Ilkare (I may be misspelling his name!). His English is perfect--like, basically native speaker level--and he's a former tour guide who knows seemingly everything to know about the area. He made amazing recommendations from tiny cool sights to see (one massive ruins, we were the only explorers in the entire site), to great spots to eat or drink. The rest of the staff (and family!) are delightful and kind, with just enough English for what you need, and as welcoming and hospitable as can be. You really feel almost like you're visiting a relative.
The property is beautiful, particularly the pool and many rescued animals. A few nice touches, like a spare key so the fridge keeps running. There are a few minor gripes, mostly the lack of blackout curtains, but that seems to be standard everywhere in Turkiye we've stayed (no sleeping in for you!).
Breakfast is delicious and plentiful, but light on protein (a single hard boiled egg).
The area is just Selçuk, it's a very small place and everything is walking distance.
I would stay here again, and suggest you do the same.
On arrival, we were given an informative briefing of how to visit the various sights. We stayed 3 nights, and were really glad we did. It allowed us to see things over 2 days, and also to relax by the pool. This hotel and Selcuk were the best days we spent in Turkey. It is certainly the best value place for eating out. The included breakfast on the top floor was a great start to each day.
