While staying at Assos Troy Beach Hotel, you’ll find yourself just minutes away from the heart of history and the Aegean. Our hotel is the perfect starting point to explore one of Assos’ most iconic landmarks: the Ancient City of Assos. Just a 10-minute scenic drive from the unique natural beauty of Kadırga Bay will take you 2,500 years back in time—to the very birthplace of philosophy.
Begin your visit at the highest point of the ancient city: the Acropolis. Here, the majestic Temple of Athena—Anatolia’s only example of Doric architecture—awaits you. As you gaze across the Aegean Sea and toward the island of Lesbos through the temple’s stone columns, you’ll understand what makes a holiday in Assos truly unforgettable. This is the very place where Aristotle founded a school of philosophy and gave lectures. Breathing in this historic atmosphere will add depth and meaning to your stay at Assos Troy Beach Hotel.
As you descend from the Acropolis, you can explore one of the world’s most scenic ancient theaters, the agora (marketplace), and the city walls. After a day steeped in history, returning to our hotel—renowned for its comfort and quality among the hotels of Kadırga Bay—will be the perfect end to your day. With Assos just a short drive away, Assos Troy Beach Hotel is your ideal base for discovering all the cultural treasures of the region.
