Alavya is Alaçatı's benchmark address. Opened in 2014, the hotel brings together six village houses in the old town around courtyards, for 25 rooms. The MICHELIN Guide has awarded it a Key, the distinction it gives to hotels offering an exceptional stay; the hotel mentions it on its website. Come for a boutique stay in the old town, with a spa and a good restaurant on site.

Six houses, one address

The rooms are spread across the houses, each with its own character: a private patio, a courtyard view, an old fireplace. All have a Carrara marble bathroom and Acqua di Parma toiletries. The MICHELIN Guide notes that Alavya became the town's top address as soon as it opened.

Rooms, from simple to loft

Rooms range from 18 to 75 m² and, depending on the category, come with a patio, terrace or balcony, sometimes a private jacuzzi. The 18 m² Classic Collection rooms are small: they suit a couple who spend their days out. For a stay of several days, choose a Premium; for a honeymoon, the Jade Loft. Both lofts are booked by contacting the hotel.

Restaurant, spa and shop

  • Mitu Lokanta, the hotel restaurant;
  • Miboso Spa;
  • an Alavya shop with its own objects and products;
  • airport transfers, arranged with reception.

The MICHELIN Guide picks out two details: breakfast is served whenever and wherever you like, on your patio or in the café; and on summer evenings the hotel's shaded garden comes alive with a DJ, Mediterranean small plates and local wines.

The hotel also hosts events and highlights its sustainability policy.

Location

Alavya is in Alaçatı old town, 45 minutes from İzmir airport according to the hotel. The shopping streets and restaurants are a short walk away; Çeşme and its harbour are 11 km away. See our Çeşme and Alaçatı page.
