Antikhan Hotel  

In the heart of Izmir’s city center, in Cankaya — a historic boutique hotel just steps from the pedestrian marketplace and the waterfront. Minutes from Kemeralti Shopping Centre, the ancient Agora and Izmir Archaeological Museum, and about a 10-minute walk to Konak Pier and the Aegean. Adnan Menderes Airport is roughly 14 km away; Ephesus and the House of the Virgin Mary are about 65 km.

Built in 1857 and recently renovated, the hotel preserves original Ottoman architecture and a calm, atrium-style lobby. There are 6 single rooms, 6 suites and 18 doubles, all tastefully decorated with comfortable furnishings and modern touches like air conditioning, satellite TV and a minibar. Expect a mix of historic character and updated comforts, plus a charming courtyard for mornings or downtime.

Free Wi‑Fi, private parking, 24-hour room service and round-the-clock hot water headline the basics. The atrium lobby and courtyard set the scene for relaxed mornings, and shops, cafes, bars and the fairgrounds are within easy reach — a short walk to the Aegean makes for quick sea-breeze strolls.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi and a location close to the international fairgrounds and multiple public transport links make this a smart pick for business travelers.

Start the day with breakfast served in the charming courtyard. 24-hour room service is available, and a wide range of local restaurants and cafés are steps away to sample Aegean flavors.
