Villa Ephesus was a wonderful hotel! So convenient to everything. The owners are so incredibly friendly and helpful. It is a small boutique hotel with all of the comforts and a nice personal touch! The sunsets from the terrace are amazing and the breakfast is a feast.
I highly recommend the Villa Ephesus if you are going to Kusadasi.

Absolutely charming property. One must walk up or down stairs to reach the hotel, but that one challenge is worth the effort. The property is unique and delightful.

This hotel is beautiful and the staff was wonderful! Breakfast was really good and is inclusive. We had wonderful views. This was one of the best hotel stays of my life. The staff met us at 2am when we checked in. They went above and beyond over and over!
I would caution American visitors that parking is challenging and the area looks a little sketchy at night. We did meet several neighbors of the hotel and they were all lovely. We encountered zero issues with safety and our rental car had zero issues. The streets are very steep and very narrow. Please discuss driving and parking with the hotel prior to arrival to avoid surprise. Despite the challenge in getting there, it is well worth a stay.

Our favorite hotel in Turkiye
Beautiful hotel with the kindest staff. The rooms, the pool, the breakfast room were all perfect with so many details that added to the ambiance. The staff couldn't have been kinder or more helpful. And the breakfast was amazing. The location is very convenient to restaurants and the waterfront.

Stunning views, attentive staff, lavish breakfast
Extraordinary and charming boutique hotel. Only a few rooms, created out of an accumulation of houses within a hillside neighborhood close to the shore makes this a special place. Cleverly and beautifully decorated with great care. Comfortable bed with stunning views. Lavish Turkish breakfast unlike any other. Best of all was the friendly and attentive staff ready to help us with everything. This was a once in a lifetime experience that we will never forget.

Close to port so convenient for ferry to Samos, really nice building but short stay so left before breakfast. Staff were really nice and friendly… bedroom was very light at night if you like it dark and we were only given a small blanket for a large double bed and two people but we arrived so late didn’t query. Also no TV in room if you were staying longer!

We enjoyed a great stay at Villa Ephesus hotel. The rooms were big and very clean, and staff service was impeccable. Breakfast was a particular highlight, served beautifully and tasted great. An amazing location being only a small walk from the seafront. Would highly recommend. Hüseyin was excellent, incredibly attentive and provided wonderful service.

Wish we had mire time ti spend there! Hotel is a gem, beautiful decoration, very clean and the breakfast is delicious. Staff very free and helpful.
Only stayed one night as we only came to tour Ephesus though truly there are markets right down the hill and plenty to do. Yet the hotel is quiet. Like an oasis

Charming hotel with character
Perched on a cliff a couple of blocks away above the main street, Villa Ephesus is on a perfect location with great view on the Sea. Hussein was beyond helpful to help navigating the narrow street above the hotel and to get the luggage in. It was a great boutique hotel feeling with warm welcome from all the staff.
The Turkish breakfast was fantastic, served on the higher level terrace with great views. The room was comfortable, well appointed and very clean. We had a great time in Kusadasi as homebase for the region and the Villa Ephesus was one of the reasons

What a wonderful hotel. We stayed at Villa Ephesus for 4 nights before joining a cruise. The hotel is only a 5 minute walk from the port and right in the town however very quiet and peaceful. We had a late flight arrival at Izmir and arranged our transfer with Melek who was very welcoming and contacted us prior to our visit with details for our stay. We had lovely Turkish breakfast each morning. The hotel was very peaceful and we had a lovely relaxing stay. There is a mosaic on the bottom of the pool which Melek advised is a copy of one of the mosaics in the Terraced House at Ephesus, which we found when we visited for the day. We took the dolmus from the Main Street and the entrance is only a 10 -15 minute walk from the main road. I would highly recommend staying at Villa Ephesus.

Do not stay here! I spent $150 to walk away from this hotel so let this be your warning. I did not end up staying here as it did not feel safe. We couldn’t find parking. The hotel is a nightmare to access and we couldn’t imagine trying to get here with our luggage. The area looks like it’s in a sketchy neighborhood and not secure. The receptionist was rude. I asked to see my room and she got up from desk and pointed to a door! I then asked to speak to the manager who she said was not in Kusadasi. After I left I tried calling Expedia to get them involved. They tried to get authorization for refund but hotel manager Okan (who I didn’t get to speak to but somehow Expedia did 30 min later) refused to authorize refund. It also stunk like cat poop and cigarette smoke the 5 min I was inside their lobby. They try gaslighting and invalidating their bad reviews but if you have common sense you can see their pattern. I’m also putting pics of the front area where you are supposed to check in from. I cannot understand At All how they have positive reviews. They must buy them. Don’t waste your money or ruin your vacation. I’ll expect a rude reply back as they always blame the customer when they receive honest feedback.

A great place to stay
We were pleasantly greeted by the host Malaika's kind and welcoming smile.
We had a great view and the room was clean, comfortable and spacious. Mr Hassan (part owner) also picked us up from the airport.
Breakfast was sumptuous and promptly served at 8 AM. The dining has a great view. Mohammet and his companion served coffee, juice and Tea and were conversant in English.
The location of Villas is right inside the oriental market where alleyways lead to other wonderful shops/markets.
This is no doubt a great place in the middle of the town, walking distance to the beach, boat harbor, restaurants and shops.
Most tours and tour guides start at 7-7:30 am. The breakfast is served at 8 am. You will miss a great breakfast unless you alter you tour timings. ( We really wished that the breakfast could be served at 7 am so most visitors can enjoy the view and the breakfast)
there is a great pool and three other lounging ares with bar and Hooks service. The view from all of these lounges is spectacular.
We were there for 4 night and visited the Ephesus ruins and Mary's house. Also took a one hour boat ride to the Greek island Samos. We spent the day there just roaming the town and enjoying the cafes on the beach.
one last noteworthy thing is that in order to get to Villas, you have to climb about 35 steep steps but it is worth it.
One day we were leaving early and Malaika packed a breakfast for us. That was so kind of her.
Highly recommended.
