A beautiful family-run hotel with a lovely courtyard and a warm, open and knowledgeable host/professional guide! Turkish breakfast is included, the beds are very comfy and the location close to everything in Selçuk. The dolmuş (minibus) station to Ephesus and Şirince is a max. 10 minutes walk, the train station (for Izmir or Denizli) 10-15 minutes walk, and the sites like the St. John’s Basilica, the fortress, the Isa Bey Mosque and Artemision are around the corner. We took a private day tour with Buğra to Priene, Miletus and Didyma which was very informative and enjoyable. Thank you, Buğra, for sharing your knowledge, hospitality and life experiences with us! We enjoyed your company and hope we will meet again!

Hotel Mary’s House provided all the essentials we wanted, and helped with logistics that alleviated much of my worries in a foreign county. They had transportation so we didn’t have to rent a car, the best tour guide, clean rooms, laundry, a nice breakfast, and a great location for nice restaurants. I highly recommend a private tour from Bugra, the owner. He knew all the tricks to make the heat manageable in Ephesus. His tour was so insightful and interesting for my history buff husband, my devout Catholic teen daughter, and even for my other “usually bored” teen daughter. He will ask what you want to see, but I would defer to his suggestions. The location of Hotel Mary’s House was ideal, 2 minute walk to 5 local restaurants . We loved Amazon, super local, w tasty traditional appetizers and perfectly cooked beef dishes. If we had another night, next door was Kybele Gastro, which was rated #1 on TripAdvisor. While taking a walk, we came across 2 cute coffee houses 2-3 minutes away from Mary’s but we never needed them because there was a nice breakfast waiting for us each morning.

Enjoyed it all, simple & charming.

We had such a wonderful stay! The hosts are incredibly kind and welcoming, making it the perfect place for families. My son absolutely loved playing in the garden, and we truly appreciated all the help they gave us with our questions and planning our sightseeing. The traditional Turkish breakfast they served was absolutely delicious such a treat every morning. The lovely lady who welcomed us and prepared breakfast is so warm and friendly. We felt completely at home here and would love to come back someday!

Very cute hotel located in a quiet neighbourhood on the hillside of Selcuk. Just a few minutes walk to the shops and restaurants, St John’s Basilica and the ruins of Artemis Temple. The rooms are decorated with beautiful tiles and wooden ceilings. The staff are exceptional—they’re very friendly and helpful, and greeted me with Turkish coffee after a long day out in Ephesus. Breakfast was abundant and tasty.

If I really have to pick one thing, maybe the shower could be stronger.

This is truly the best hotel in Selçuk if you want to have a local experience. The house is stunning and the decorations are fantastic. The owners are extremely kind and knowledgeable of all the things to do, foods to try and activities. The breakfast is delicious, the rooms are beautiful, spacious and very clean and quiet. We did not want to leave!

Nothing! Everything was perfect

Loved everything about this place! The owner greeted us as we arrived, and helped us with our suitcases. Hotel location is literally in the heart of the city, with St. John’s basilica being an easy 5 minute walk. Lots of restaurants and shops nearby for you to visit too. Breakfast is amazing as well. Rooms were gorgeous and clean, lots of beautiful hand carved and painted details. Would absolutely visit again!

Got nothing to complain about!

It is like home away from home. The set up is basic but clean. Bugra is woking with his wife and young families showing us around Ephesus, Sirince village and St Mary’s church. Bugra is very knowledgeable about the history not only in Izmir but general world history as well.

The only thing is my parents are old and they had to walk up to the third floor. There is no lift.

Beautiful family run hotel, lovely breakfast, and spotlessly clean. Bugra, the owner, took us on two private tours directly from the hotel, one to Ephesus and other to Pamukkale. He is very personable and will take good care of you. The hotel is a short walk to great local restaurants. Highly recommend!

Beautifully maintained hotel and family owned and managed. This hotel is in a beautiful cobblestone are close to many great restaurants and a short walk to the main area of Selcuk. It is walking distance (a few blocks) to St John Basilica. Bugra is a fabulous tour guide and will ensure you see Ephesus and the House of Virgin Mary and any other sights even further away. He is knowledgeable and has excellent English. Rooms were spacious, clean, good AC. One of the best places to stay while seeing the surrounding sights!
