Located in the historic heart of ancient Madytos (present-day Eceabat), overlooking the Hellespont, Avec Hotel is one of the distinctive stops along the Troia Wine Route.

Although it is not a winery, it stands as one of the route’s foremost ambassadors of wine culture.
Rather than being a vineyard or a wine estate, Avec Hotel is a refined meeting place where the wines of the Troas Region and distinguished labels from across Türkiye and beyond come together. Its wine cellar houses a remarkable collection of more than 20,000 bottles, carefully selected from both Türkiye and renowned wine regions around the world. This extensive collection offers visitors the opportunity to discover the character of the region—from Cabernet Sauvignon and the indigenous Karasakız to Riesling and other native grape varieties—while exploring the richness of the international wine world in a single destination.

The cellar is far more than a place for storing wine; it reflects a philosophy of thoughtful selection and careful curation. Here, wine is not simply served—it is preserved under ideal conditions, thoughtfully paired, and transformed into a refined experience.

The restaurant interprets the centuries-old relationship between the Hellespont and the sea through its cuisine. Menus inspired by local ingredients are complemented by carefully selected wine pairings, bringing the region’s wine culture to the table. Framed by panoramic sunset views, the experience becomes not only gastronomic, but also a lasting memory of place.

With its 18 guest rooms, the hotel offers a strategic base for exploring the region’s most significant historic sites, including Troy (UNESCO World Heritage Site), the Abydos–Sestos passage, and the Gallipoli Peninsula. Its location naturally positions Avec Hotel as both a welcoming gateway and a central meeting point along the Troia Wine Route.
At Avec Hotel, wine is not produced, but it is thoughtfully represented, carefully preserved, and graciously shared—celebrating both the diversity of the region and the wider world of wine.
