    Similar to all cave hotels the steps are very steep.

    Location is central and very well accessible. Taxi stand, grocery shop, restaurant is close by . Very quiet and relaxing.

    discovered the bath tub was right by the window where other guest could see directly into the tub that’s the only thing I never liked because having a bath with the windows shut and curtains closed would feel like suffocating

    I loved how big the room was , it felt like a castle you were in . everything was just absolutely amazing .

    Loved everything about this hotel, it’s very special. the room was amazing, very big and the bathroom was huge. There is a lovely feel about it and the staff were so friendly and helpful. we loved the peaceful location although there isn’t much to do there but Goreme is easily driveable for restaurants etc. I would love to stay again if we come back to the area

    The windows could be soundproofed. Otherwise, everything was great.

    Very kind staff who were always ready to help. When we felt cold in the night, they proactively got us extra blankets and an electric heater. Breakfast was amazing and the lady who prepared it told us what she made each day (each day was different), and it was really home-cooked and with local ingredients. The room was very big, the bathroom had a clean and well-functioning shower and jacuzzi, and we were within a two-minute walk to the town center. This is a town that is a 10-minute drive to the major sights in the Cappadocia area but has not yet become too touristy, so it still looks and feels more local - don't expect tons of restaurants, but this is what we preferred. We really felt welcomed like in a "family" here!

    Would be useful to have a little more information re: housekeeping. We certainly don’t need it every day but after 3 or 4 days we needed towels and a clean. Would be nice to be offered this rather than feeling unsure about requests.

    We’re so happy we booked this for our four days in Cappadocia. We loved Ortahisar - more relaxed and authentic-seeming than Goreme - I bought a couple of lovely dresses, and we ate at Evi Wine Bar two consecutive nights as we enjoyed it so much. Great small supermarket right on the corner. The rooms themselves were exactly like the pictures! Which is often not the case… We loved the bathroom and used the massive Turkish bath / spa three nights. Very much appreciated having Netflix for the evenings as well. And the amazing breakfasts and service from Dibek and team! It’s really beautiful with many different spaces indoor and out you can use, and the staff are so kind, friendly, and helpful. Highly recommend.

    It’s located in a small town with not a lot to do, I definitely recommend to rent a car so you can move around easily. The room was also too hot and had a lot of humidity, it needs more ventilation

    The hotel is beautiful! The room was marvelous and the food was just sensational (big shout out to the amazing chef who cared for us so much). The staff in the reception were also amazing :)

    Best hotel in Turkey 🇹🇷 5 STARS

    I honestly had no complaints about this hotel, my husband and I just kept on saying had we known about this place before we would have booked for a week.

    This is 100% the best hotel ever! It is 5 star accommodations at a reasonable price. The staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating. We had to switch rooms in order to stay another night and wait for the weather to go in the balloons and the 2nd room was even better than the 1st. We went from 365 Days bathroom vibes to Scorpion King spa vibes. Modern amenities in Ottoman settings. The free breakfast was truly Turkish with the additional offerings of eggs done your way. At 4am, while waiting to be picked up the reception attendant went and made us tea. This stay set the bar extremely high and I just don't think anywhere else will come close.
