Where the hotel is
A long-standing favourite in Selçuk, Akay Hotel is a boutique hotel with a pool and terrace on a side street near the Basilica of St. John. The basilica is a short walk away, and the Temple of Artemis, the Ephesus Archaeological Museum and Ayasuluk Castle can all be reached in a few minutes on foot.
