Sızmahan Boutique Hotel - Ayvalık

Built next to the sea in 1908 from pink “garlic” stone,  this building was originally used for processing olive oil.

A hundred years on, the couple Ayse and Mustafa Buyukcivgin have restored the building in keeping with its past and have turned it into a hotel with ten rooms. You will feel straightaway the warm and welcoming atmosphere of this family-run hotel.

Its name signifies respect for its past. The building still resonates with the presence of its hundred-year history.
