Nisanyan Evleri

Nisanyan Hotel is a small hotel in Sirince, a historic hill village near Ephesus. It's built by Sevan and Mujde Nisanyan, authors of the Little Hotel Book, the bible of Turkey's small and characterful hotels. Mr. Nisanyan lives on the premises and runs the hotel in hands-on style. The Nisanyan  hotel offers a mixed bag of different accommodations. The Inn itself has five rooms and a lot of common space. There are several houses, historic buildings which offer all the comforts of a spacious private home. The Ilyastepe cottages are a cluster of timeless stone houses in a garden of extraordinary beauty and peace. Kilisealti Guesthouse has seven pleasant rooms for travelers on a more limited budget.  Our three houses are situated immediately below the Inn on a sharp slope. They offer an opportunity to enjoy traditional Aegean village life in a quiet and private setting. Like most houses in Sirince they were originally built in the early 19th century. We renovated them (we hope) without spoiling their original spirit.  Each house can sleep a maximum of four or five persons in different combinations. Turkish Bath House has two double rooms with separate bathrooms, one of them a floor-heated Turkish hamam, as well as a spacious livingroom.

Platform Bed House has a huge main bedroom, a twin second bedroom, and an extra bed in the living room, all sharing one bathroom. Bay Window House has a double bedroom connecting with a twin room, and one bathroom. Each has a well-equipped kitchen and plenty of private outdoor space.
