Hotel Romantik di Selcuk

We travel quite a bit and can tell you that Akanthus was one of the best experiences we have ever had, anywhere, in a locally owned and operated boutique-style hotel. The owners (two very kind brothers) and the staff were hospitable and genuinely committed to professional excellence. They have thought of virtually every detail to make their guests have a welcome and comfortable experience. The rooms are nicely decorated and outfitted for modern travelers... and, most importantly, CLEAN. As we were staying for more than a week, we wiped the drawers before putting our things in them... and we found them already completely clean. No negative surprises. Have you ever looked a beautiful green hillside (like in Scotland) and when you get closer you find weeds and thistles? In other words, something that looks good in the photos and then when you get there it is not what you expected. Not this place... Akanthus lives up to expectations. In fact, it _exceeded_ our expectations. Their warm and helpful staff went the ”extra mile” to make sure we had what we needed. As we know, this side of heaven nothing will ever be perfect. That is why I do not write that it was perfect. It was, however, truly professionally excellent. Akanthus is an oasis for all its guests, from check-in to the nightly cake and warm drink, to the daily healthy breakfast and coffee, to the service throughout the day. Their small pool was a welcome place to cool off during hot summer days. We give our highest recommendation to whomever is reading this. Stay here when you go to Ephesus.

這家民宿體驗中，存在幾處不便：一是入住時僅提供一把古董鑰匙，對雙人入住而言，取用頗為不便，影響出入自由；二是位於二樓的房間，在退房時搬運行李下樓顯得頗為吃力；三是房間內的大浴缸與蒸浴室雖看似豪華，但實際使用價值不高，相比之下，更寬敞的浴室空間或許更為實用。酒店在鑰匙管理、行李搬運便利性及浴室設計實用性方面有待提升。

I absolutely enjoyed my short 2 nights stay at this boutique hotel ! The room was very clean and the settings are super charming. The staff was fluent in English and very kind. The breakfast was good! The location was perfectly situated. I recommend ! ☺️
