A beautiful and comfortable boutique hotel in a quiet, unspoiled village. Close to Ephesus and other sights. Nick and Maggie are wonderful hosts. There are several village restaurants nearby, serving delicious traditional food at budget prices. Recommended for independent travellers with a car -- and who don't mind treating themselves to a bit of luxury.

Despite some difficulty finding Muses House (we made the mistake of not downloading the driving directions from their website) and entertaining doubts about our choice as we drove up and around the small town of Kirazli searching for the address – our qualms were dispelled as soon as we arrived. I agree with all of the positive comments that have... More

Don't let the drive into Kirazli worry you, the Muses House Hotel is a very beautiful comfortable place to stay. We did not have a car, and we didn't feel that we were stuck in the middle of nowhere. Dolmus run throughout the day to either Selcuk or Kusadasi. This is the type of place where you will want to... More

This review is long overdue. My friend and I had a remarkable stay at the Muses while visiting Selcuk, Ephesus and the surrounding area. You get the benefit of staying in a true Turkish village with the luxury and benefits of a first rate B&B tucked into its own little corner. Maggie truly made us feel welcome, with itineraries for...

We stayed here for 4 nights after a 3 night stay attending a wedding in the concrete jungle of Kusadasi. We couldn't believe that a 15 minute drive into the hills above Kusadasi could provide such a contrast and such a beautiful and tranquil place to stay! The hotel is located in a small farming village (Kirazli) and is ideally... More

The Muses Hotel is a terrific place to stay. My husband and I were there for several nights in May and we felt very pampered during our time there. The room and common areas were excellent - comfortable and beautifully decorated, and sitting outside in the courtyard for meals was a treat.What was especially outstanding was the way Nick and...

Don't rely on Google to get to this place and don't be put off by the approach to what seems like it could be a mistake. When Nick opens the door, this is worth it; a wonderful boutique hotel. Maggie and Nick are tremendously friendly, knowledgeable and helpful hosts, their staff are unfailingly courteous (couldn't have done without their help... More

This is an absolutely wonderful place. My wife and I were visiting Ephesus and wanted a place to stay overnight nearby. I didn't know much about the place only having seen an advertisement in a university alumni magazine. It is somewhat off the beaten track- which can be a plus or minus depending on your point of view. The drive... More

Seeing Ephesus--one of the great sites of antiquity--is a hassle. There are hordes of tourists and most of the accommodations for them are ordinary. But the Muses House is special, a five-room inn runs by British ex-pats Nick and Maggie Justice. Outside the gate is a dusty street in a tiny town; inside the gate is a garden, a pool,... More
