Hotel Bella

Selçuk


Offers 11 well-designed rooms (some small) with Ottoman flourishes in the decor. There's a small library and antiques and artefacts decorate the rooftop lounge and restaurant. It's opposite the Basilica of St John and fortress. Free rides to/from Ephesus are a bonus.

Larger rooms are the triple Room 6 and the family Room 12. The owners also operate a tour agency, so can assist with onward travel.
