Door hits sink in bathroom so won’t close- plus the room did not get wifi signal so had to work in lobby. Very close to Red Basilica and walkable to Teleferik up to Pergamon

Decent property in good location. Listed as a ‘Attalos suites’ on other websites. Part of property is refurbished and looks more modern. The room we stayed in would very much benefit from refurbishment.

I loved this hotel. The staff so friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make my stay comfortable and pleasant. The location is great and you can easily reach historical sites. I’m a vegetarian and they provided me with a range of vegetarian options. The room also was really clean. Highly recommended.

Amazing Akropolis
Beautiful motel....with beautiful staff. The rooms are stunning...very quaint, very beautiful. The layout if the motel is so well thought out. The service is outstanding. We have been in Turkey for 12 days and not once did we get our breakfast served to us at our table...and to top it off, the parting gift given was very beautiful. I loved the wee handmade bracelets. Such a beautiful touch from such a beautiful place. I would highly reccomend to anyone travelling to Bergama (Pergamum)...not only is it perfect but its also close to the ancient ruins and the basillica so 5 stars from me :)

A wonderful hotel with a perfect garden where you can swim and relax under the shade of ancient trees. The room was clean and spacious, mattress was super comfortable, shower had great water pressure, staff was attentive, very helpful, always with a smile. I was relaxing in a comfy sofa in the garden after swimming in the pool and the lady brought me a plate with pieces of fresh watermelon. Just for the sake of it, no charge, only as an attention. It was a sweet and delicious treat, and her attention made me feel happy. There is a higher terrace where you can also spend time that overlooks the park crossing the street (I enjoyed a nice dinner in the restaurant in that park, with locals only, highly recommended). You can also relax in your terrace, the one next to your room. I had a great time here. It was wonderful to have a relaxing place where to spend the hottest hours of the afternoon, away from the sun and the heat of July. I loved it. I hope I can return and stay for more days.

Stay here.This place is wonderful. The location is perfect for visiting all of the sites and the owner and his right hand woman,Rahime, made us feel very welcome and cared for. The garden and pool are beautifully kept and a haven after a hot day visiting the sites. This place and Bergama itself were so special we decided to extend our stay.

As if you exaggerated a little bit when you define our location :)? Please forgive me, because I've heard such things for the first time, there's always a first, right? :) We park cars in front of our place on the free street,2-3 mts from the main entrence gate:) It is a funky place ? :) You may have arrived after midnight .. Just accross the place of us there is a public green park area with pine trees,people have their cafe and tea during all day.And we are on the way of Akropolis hill, 300 meters away from the cable car and we are in the historical, old part of the city, but also very close to the city center (10 minutes walking).. Anyway, thank you very much for staying with us and for your comments..

Sparkling clean rooms in a lovely garden setting. Breakfast was lovely, and this place is incredibly quiet at night. It's a short walk to the teleferik up to the Akropolis or to the Red Basilica, so it's a perfect homebase for visiting the ancient sites. I would absolutely stay here again.

The property was amazing, just as photos and description advertised, and a great value for the price. The setting was very close to the ruins of Pergamon. But the real magic of the hotel was the service: even in the very heart of off-season for the Aegean coastal area of Turkey, this little hotel was staffed by several wonderful hosts, including a grandmotherly figure who managed to communicate with English-speakers through gestures, enthusiasm, and care. I would highly recommend the hotel, and will stay here again during my next trip through the region for Greco-Roman ruins.

A superb place to relax and explore in Bergama
Excellent facilities - bed, bathroom, table on patio, desk in room, air conditioning and fan were all of high quality. The staff were very kind, friendly and went to extraordinary lengths to make your visit enjoyable - snacks, drinks and tea at various times of day without requesting these. The breakfasts were very good and the garden and pool setting were very pleasant. The guest house is very well situated in a position that is very close to the old town's shopping, the cable car to the Acropolis and in a beautiful, quiet historic neighbourhood.

Acropolis guest house. Great for motorcyclists
the acropolis guest house is great. Safe courtyard gated parking for push bikes or motorbikes. It’s a 3 min walk downhill to the Red Basilica and a 10 min walk slightly uphill and then level to the cable car station that takes you up to the ancient site of Pergamon. The lady at the Acropolis guest house was so kind to us and nothing was too much trouble - very welcoming! And they have a pool. In addition to the obvious ancient site of Pergamon, find your way into the towns old quarter, explore the narrow streets, mix with the locals, drink cay, soak up the atmosphere, you’ll love it.

Great local place to stay
I found Bergama a friendly town and staying here topped it off. A nice area to relax and read and take a dip in the pool after walking everywhere. I arrived first day after travelling for 5 hours arriving around 2 and greeted with a warm smile and was given lunch! Service was always with a smile and I was helped booking my bus tickets when i left as well asbeing taken to the local garage. Great breakfast... highly recommend!!!

Lovely and comfortable.
Disclaimer: For four nights, I was the only person in the hotel, except for one night when another guest arrived late and left early. This wonderful place is comfortable, cozy and so relaxed. My 2nd floor room was off a long roofed balcony (like a porch) with tables, chairs and view of the courtyard and pool. Room was large and comfortable, with a large shower in a separate bath. TV was intermittent, but when it worked, I got BBC and other satellite channels. Hosts were lovely, and Raime, the woman who managed the kitchen, made breakfast, etc. was absolutely charming, though she didn't speak a word of English! Easy access to gondola to the Acropolis of Pergamum (10-minute walk), town (10 min.) and Museum and Asclepion (2 km.) Egemon, the owner, is gracious and helpful. All in all, five stars. Perhaps I was doted on because I was the only guest, or perhaps they're just gracious and generous people. I prefer to believe the latter! Tip: Ask to see the rooms. I preferred the older section to the newly-built section.

A Terrible Choice -- And Perhaps a Deception.
Disclaimer first: we are experienced travelers of many years, and we are neither complainers, flamers, or hostile. We expect a variety of cultural, taste, and experience in our travels, and we look for the best of things at every "star" level. That said, this property was simply unacceptable, by far the worst in our experience. Listed a a 3-star, it barely rates a single star. Where the "Outstanding" rating came from is beyond our comprehension. The property is run-down, badly serviced and located in an unattractive area. After check-in and a room change, we simply gave up and fled. That cost a few dollars, but saved our sanity and perhaps our marriage. This property should not be offered by Hotels.com.
