Our stay at Arif couldn’t have been better. Arguably the best located hotel in Goreme for views and ambiance, and our cave room was very romantic. The staff were also as good as it gets; helpful, friendly and never let us leave breakfast with an empty stomach. Highly recommended if you’re visiting Cappadocia.

Nothing, we had a wonderful stay there and would highly recommend to anyone going to Goreme

It has the most beautiful view since it’s at the top of cappadocia. There are many good spots for breakfast while enjoying the hot air balloon

Nothing to not like, it is a must stay when in Cappadocia.

This was an amazing stay. The view, the service, the breakfast, the hospitality were all exceptional. Han and the team made us feel at home and well looked after. We arrived early/before our room was ready but they were already so accomodating to us and other guests who were in the same situation, providing welcome drinks and early check-in once our rooms were ready. The view from the breakfast terrace was incredible! It was the best view of Goreme and the balloons. Our room was spacious and clean, with the highest balcony in Goreme and like the breakfast terrace, it had an incredible view of town and the balloons. Special shout out to Han who was very helpful, providing us with all the information we needed about the town and surrounding attractions, and gave us plentiful recommedations of everything we needed, from food recommendations to local guides.

The staff were helpful and friendly. The breakfasts were large, varied and delicious. The grounds of the hotel were beautiful with nice view overlooking Goreme. Location was convenient and walking distance to main sights.

If we return to Goreme, we will defintely book rooms to Arif Cave Hotel again. Located right below the Goreme Sunset Point, the hotel is clean and very beautiful. The view from the hotel is mesmerizing and there also are some great photo spots, with traditional decor. The staff was extraordinary. They welcomed us with turkish coffee and spent a lot of time giving us more details about the region and about the available tours. We really appreciated that we have received honest recommendations and opinions on the tours. Later, they booked the tours we chose for us. Also, as we arrived by car, even if the hotel does not have parking facilities, the staff happily helped us find a good parking spot. Last but not least, the breakfast is to be mentioned. It mainly was a traditional hot breakfast, freshly cooked for us, and very, very tasty.

Han is the kindest person in the world, he managed to check us in much earlier, offered us delicious Turkish coffee and provided us with huge local morning breakfast. The room was cute and comfortable. If I have a chance to visit Cappadocia one more time, I will definitely book this hotel.

This hotel is amazing, one of the best one we have been. The location, the view, the staff, the room, everything is perfect. Located at the highest point of Goreme, you cannot dream of a better view. A special thanks to Han who was attentive to our every need, he knows exactly what is nice to do around and he can arrange it for you. We felt like home there, we went to other hotels in Goreme but this one is by far the best you can find.

We booked Panaromic Cave Room. It cost a bit more. But it is higtest hotel room in town. It has grate view. The bed is comfortable. The room design like atrs. The manager Hon. Staff Hanifi and Qwner Ahmet are very nice. They are warmest host we had for whole trip. The breakfast is another highlight. They offer too much food and we are barely to finish them. After we just finish all food, they offer Turkeish coffee and Baklava. On last day we have to leave early to catch flight. They start earlier to make sure we can have breakfast before we leave. Breakfast is 8:00 am to 11:00 am. We had breakfast at 7:40 am on day we leave.

The service and staff are excellent, always ready to assist with any request. The room is beautiful , and from my balcony I can enjoy watching hot air balloons. The view from the hotel terrace is absolutely breathtaking, and there is loads of Turkish food served for breakfast.

The property is perfect. An amazing view from the top and from the room. You can see all of Goreme from the rooftop area. Perfect location and so close to the sunset panorama point. We arrived early and they let us check in early. Han was so helpful in recommending what to do whilst in Cappadocia. He organised everything for us including tours and horse riding trips which were all excellent. He organised a shuttle to collect us and take us back to the airport. The breakfast is amazing and set us up perfectly for the day. The staff are all so friendly and helpful. I cannot recommend enough. I will definitely be coming back to stay here again!

Great hotel. Great coffee/breakfast, the best Baclava. Staff are amazing, Han especially, made sure I went on all the tours on my list and organised everything so it was stress free (cheaper than booking elsewhere). The balcony view from some of the rooms is beautiful. Would recommend it

Perfect location overlooking the valley

No space inside the shower for toiletries.

Stunning!!! The staff were the friendliest and caring that we’ve encountered. Every single one of them was beyond welcoming. They helped us confirm we had the best tours and activities - at a fair price! They helped arrange transport to and from the airport and treated us to any requests we had for breakfast :)

To be honest, there's very little to complain about, but if I had to nitpick, the uphill walk to the hotel can be tiring. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would recommend this place to others."

I must say, the breakfast was excellent. I have to give a special shoutout to Han and Ahmed, who are excellent chefs. The location of the hotel, right underneath sunset point, was simply amazing.

We loved everything about this property. It was charming, comfortable, and situated with the best view of Cappadocia. Just sitting on the terrace was good enough for us. But the best part of our stay there was the staff. Ahmet, Han, and Hanafi took such great care of us even before we arrived. They reached out to us prior to our stay and made sure we have transportation to get to the property and made arrangements for us to get there. We did not have an itinerary for our time in Cappadocia, and they were so helpful in making suggestions and booking tours, etc for us. The breakfast every morning was so good and definitely a highlight of the stay. But honestly, the best part of our stay at Arif Cave Hotel was that we were treated like family. We didn’t feel like visitors. The generosity, and hospitality of the staff was unbelievable. Thank you Ahmet, Han, and Hanafi, and the rest of the team.

Everything was truly wonderful. The only thing I would change: The standard drip coffee offered at breakfast time, wasn't as super as everything else. They do offer espresso as well; but might need a little more practice at the machine, or just better coffee beans. They deserve 100 stars for pure heart and desire to please ❤

Arif Cave Hotel has an excellent staff: they are professional, friendly and helpful. The panoramic room was very clean and comfortable, with great views of the valley and hot air balloons. The included breakfast buffet has something for everyone. The staff is attentive and generous. They will not stop trying to feed you! All of them are very sweet, and we would happily return to this place.
