Sızmahan Boutique Hotel – Ayvalık Turkey October 7, 2008

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.

Your home in Ayvalık

1. At Sızma Han we aim to ensure our guests spend a happy time in a warm and hospitable atmosphere, enjoying a panoramic view of Ayvalık from our hotel with its authentic setting in a historic building.

Here you can enjoy a variety of drinks and try our selection of grills and home-made starters made using the local olive oil, as well as fresh sea-foods. While enjoying your drinks or meal you can listen to traditional and classical music until midnight.

2. In the kitchen of Sızma Han we bring to life again many traditional local Aegean dishes. Here you can savour the taste of the olives and olive oil for which the region is famous. If you are looking for something different in terms of cuisine you must visit Sizma Han’s restaurant, which is open to visitors as well as guests.

3. Sızma Han has a spacious sea-front terrace, with a quay and provision of facilities for water sports. There is a fully-equipped kitchen, restaurant, snack-bar and cocktail bar.

We also offer wireless internet connection facilities, air-conditioning, and LCD TV.

4. Sızma Han is situated directly on the deep blue sea overlooking the historical town and bay of Ayvalık. This beautiful old building, newly restored, carries us from the past to the present, keeping the best of both.
