Livia Hotel Ephesus – Adults Only

Friendly staff, pretty property, great setting easy walk to town and the basilica. Nice breakfast served elegantly by the pool

The owner was very thoughtful and friendly. He recommended nearby attractions and even let us check out late, so we could shower after a hot day of sightseeing. Breakfast was plentiful with tasty jams, cheese, omelette, and salad. He also speaks a bit of Chinese, cool! We’ll definitely come back!

Very cute boutique style hotel. Felt like home.

The hotel was beautifully presented from the time you walked into the courtyard entrance. The rooms were very comfortable, tastefully decorated, and spotlessly clean. The owner was extremely generous with his time and helped us optimize our limited time in the area. I have traveled to many parts of the world with work and have stayed at some of the nicest 5 star hotels, however, The Livia hotel has been my most enjoyable experience at a hotel ever.

Erdem is truly one of the best hosts we’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting in all our travels. He is incredibly warm, genuine, and goes out of his way to make you feel welcome and at home. From the moment we arrived, he took the time to patiently explain the nearby sights and gave us excellent recommendations for getting the most out of our stay. The property itself is stunning—beautifully maintained, tastefully decorated, and in an unbeatable location. It’s just a short walk to the Basilica of St. John and the castle, with plenty of great restaurants nearby. Parking was easy and convenient. Excellent value for money! And the Turkish breakfast, oh absolutely unforgettable! We are talking about FULL TURKISH BREAKFAST! Generous spread featuring a variety of local cheeses, olives, tomatoes, cucumbers, fresh bread, homemade jams, eggs, and more. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It felt like starting the day with a feast. Thank you, Erdem and the team for making our stay so special!

It was very clean and well maintained.

Everything was perfect, from the responsiveness of the host to the quality of the rooms and of course, the real MVP, the breakfast was very extravagant and nice.

Excellent location and service. The breakfast was excellent.

Centrally located hotel in Selcuk. Erdem and his team are amazing, super friendly, and attentive. Highly recommend if you are staying in the area, walking distance to all the main sites and close to the minibus to Ephesus.

The location was a short walk to a large percentage of what you want to see the old section Istanbul. And right next-door is a wonderful bomb for a relaxing Turkish Bath. The room was immaculate and recently remodeled and quiet.

We ended up staying in the Livia Gardens Hotel around the corner. The manager could not do enough for us and the rest of the staff were so friendly and accommodating. The room was wonderful and the breakfast a feast of local produce. A lovely relaxing pool and sun lounges topped off a great day of exploring Ephesus.

Great location and lovely customer service. Really lovely staff!

Great location. Easy walking distance to museum, castle and St. John’s basilica ruins. Very helpful and informative front desk. Turkish hospitality at its best.

Very attentive and helpful staff from check-in to check-out. Assist with tours and even train tickets to airport.

We were there during 'slow' season (January). We had a room upgrade and it was beautiful. They arranged for our private guide of Ephesus and offered suggestions to local restaurants as well as directions for our walks. The hotel was fairly quiet but located in a neighborhood, as were many of the hotels, so there was some outside noise. Nothing to make it an unpleasant stay.

Nice garden with a pool and bar, fantastic for family stay.

We were actually staying at Livia Garden hotel nearby. Nice garden and pool, felt very peaceful, nice place to relax but near to restaurants and sights. Manager extremely helpful in aiding us to get to our next destination. Breakfast was plentiful and staff very polite .
