About Sirince Lotus Konaklari

Sirince Lotus Konaklari, or Sirince Lotus Mansions in English, is a guesthouse in an old mansion in the village of Sirince in the Selcuk district. Its five rooms are named Blue, White, Pink, Red and Purple Lotus. The house website explains that the rooms of the mansion were arranged for summer and winter. The rooms on the left of the building are larger, while those on the right are much smaller and have fireplaces, once used for both cooking and heating. The windowless lower room with thick stone walls served as a cellar and olive oil store, and the barrels and jars found there are now on display. The ground floor of the small outbuilding was originally a barn and is now a private room with a fireplace, and the floor above is the office and the breakfast area on winter days. Selcuk Municipality lists it as a pension among the accommodation holding the Efes Selcuk sustainable tourism certificate.
