i recently spent 2 weeks traveling through the west coast of turkey with my mom- instanbul to selcuk. my mother and i travel well together and typically we search out small hotels, or small bed and breakfasts. we came upon the akay hotel by chance, from the Lonely Planet book on Turkey. What a find! Rhia will do what ever... More

Ria and Etam were very helpful in organising my travel to Ephesus, Pamucak beach and other places I wanted to visit, often at no charge or just cost of petrol. They are gentle and kind and worth getting to know. When you travel solo you may sometimes want company, and for that the breakfast terrace is great. Lovely views and... More

This great little hotel is tuck away in a small village street but only minutes from the mosque, St John's basilica and town. Fabulous breakfast buffet on a rooftop terrace with great views. And the clean, fresh pool was heaven sent. Staff have excellent English too. More

The hotel owners/staff arranged absolutely everything for us, including bus tickets for our onward journey and, believe it or not, the return of my e-book reader when I left it on the bus from Selcuk to Ortaca. The hotel itself is a comfortable family-run B&B type arrangement, basic, but with a lot of nice extras, eg a pool, cheap laundry... More

As mentioned before there is a lack at bed sheets, there was only a thin blanket available, towels not at the best of conditions (clean though). I had clean blankets but... More

On arriving at the Akay Hotel we were greeted warmyl by Ria at the front desk. Her friendliness and helfulness continued for the entire duration of our stay in this nicely appointed hotel. The pool was really welcome at the end of the days of sightseeing as the weather in July is very hot. In the morning there was a... More

I had the unfortunate experience of getting really sick when I arrived in Selcuk. The hotel staff at the Hotel Akay could not have been nicer and more helpful in getting medical care and directing us where we needed to go. I cannot say enough about their kindness. More

Akay hotel may have had the friendliest hotel staff in all of Turkey. We took a 10 day trip to Turkey and stayed in Selcuk for 1 night. Ria and the staff were hands down the most hospitable and friendliest hotel staff we encountered. She went out of her way to make us comfortable and feel at home. This hotel... More
