The two owners, Nazmi and Erdal, are gracious, generous and experienced hoteliers and made our stay at Hotel Nilya and Selçuk/Ephesus a wonderful experience. We appreciated the advice and assistance they gave us, the breakfast and the extensive collection of Ottoman art a decor throughout.

Erdal & all the staff are friendly & very helpful. They gave good ideas about what to see and what order. Erdal went out of his way to drop us off at Ephesus. Thankyou Erdal. He gave us good dinner suggestions. There are restaurants near the aquaduct but also lots of nice ones down the hill from Nilya. The courtyard at Nilya is lovely with the trees providing shade. The rooms are clean & have Turkish character & atmosphere with lovely artwork. The breakfast was great. You can easily walk to the Ephesus Museum, the castle, the basilica of st john, the aquaduct & the mosque. We parked right outside nilya. Loved our stay & recommend to anyone who wants a hotel with character. Charming. Our room upstairs was quiet. It's a nice area to stay in. It feels authentic - there are locals around, it is not just tourists.

Nice character property, on a quiet street. Very close to St John's Basilica and the Castle. 10 mins walk from the train or bus. Friendly place, nice breakfast, in a shady courtyard garden. . Really helpful to get a lift to Ephesus top entrance after breakfast. Only a white curtain at the window meant it was very light for sleeping unfortunately.

Good choice

We had a great stay, the hotel is well located and clean. It is close to Ephesus. We had our own car, but the manager offered us free transportation to Ephesus. We parked easily on the street. To improve the experience, I suggest breakfast service starts before 8am. Our main goal was to reach Ephesus at opening time (8am) to escape the crowds.

Nilya hotel is a cute little family run hotel. The breakfast is amazing, the rooms are small but pretty and clean. The location is great, walking distance to interesting sights and delicious eats. What makes this hotel special is the excellent hospitality of its owners. They went above and beyond to help our party sort out different things: they haves us free shuttle rides to and from Ephesus, they helped us contact a great and knowledgable guide, they got us a taxi to go to virgins Mary house. They lent us their backgammon and showed me and my sister Joe to play. They constantly offered us tea and coffee. I left my kid le behind and they texted me and offered me to send it on DHL at no extra cost. They are really experienced and helpful hosts. I would come back again!

LOVED the authentic Turkish furnishings and artwork. The courtyard is lovely, the room was very comfortable. It was a welcome immersion into the culture. No TV was fine. I would like to have been able to make coffee or tea on our own in the room itself... But - it would have been available if we'd requested. VERY nice breakfast. Helpful recommendations about Efes, And walking distance from the ruins of St. John Basilica, which was amazing!
