    Not necessarily a complaint but the bed in one of our rooms was very squeaky. The internet is sometimes really slow

    Lovely cave house, clean rooms, the manager is very friendly. Loved the parking option

    The roof top not same as like in the photo.

    The location is quite nearest with the town but you need to walk up the hills.

    Staying in a cave scared me a little while making a booking. But once I arrived the room looks so perfectly clean, modern and looks new! Staff was helpful and always check on me if I need anything during the stay. Location is ok you can walk to the top for some restaurant but nothing much. Unfortunately there no Balloon flying above 🙂

    The room needs a bit of maintenance. There were a couple of things that could be improved. For example the wardrobe was full of extra pillows and duvets and we did not have space to put our clothes or the fridge that was not working. It may help if the lovely owner of the hotel could speak a bit more English. Also there is a lady leaving above the rooms with a dog that barks all night long. That was definitely a downside for us!

    The hotel is very nice and well decorated. Nice turkish breakfast in a beautiful terrace with amazing view.

    Peaceful Ortahisar at Gorgeous Elaa Cave Hotel
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Superior King Suite
    • Stayed 3 nights

    I’m happy I could easily negotiate the metal spiral staircase that leads to the upstairs bathroom and private terrace. If a person has mobility issues I know there are more suitable and equally beautiful suites on the property.

    I stayed in suite 99 in the units across the little road from breakfast and reception. If you are ok with steps up a few terraces the flat is gorgeous. Impeccably decorated with a collection of Ottoman antiques, incredible carpets and gorgeous textile artwork. The are multiple day beds to curl up to read a book, large windows in both rooms and a wonderful large bed with fresh linens and excellent pillows. An ensuite tea service and an upstairs private terrace and bathroom with large shower and plenty of clean towels. Besides the beauty of the rooms the great joy is the view into the central village of old Ortahisar. Epic

    Everything was wonderful. We had a very warm welcome, fantastic breakfasts, an outside sitting area, plus rooftop area with great views. Our large cave room had tasteful and luxurious furnishings, and a king-size bed with quality linen. The ensuite had a good shower, big vanity and thick towels. The staff were friendly and very helpful with all of our various needs and requests. I highly recommend this hotel, and would definitely stay again.

    This hotel was outstanding and the manager was very kind and helpful. Ortahisar is a quiet city and much better than Goreme if you are looking for someplace that is not a tourist trap in Capadoccia. I highly recommend this hotel.

    having more lights in my room as some lights weren’t working and if the property had Netflix streaming channels as the normal tv channels weren’t as entertaining especially if you don’t understand the Turkish language

    beautiful beautiful cute staff loved them to bits . we were welcomed every morning and evening by the lady which I forgot her name and I think her son the young gentleman that oversees the place at night making sure whatever we needed he assisted it was an absolute pleasure to stay at the hotel

    Breakfast is very very tasty, but individual serving of Turkish breakfast (like others resorts do) instead of buffet could make stay even more special.

    Clean, nice room. Good parking spot for hotel guests. One of the highlights of my stay was rooftop terrace, which offers stunning panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. Owners of hotel so welcoming and they care a lot of their guests.

    Thr hotel is located next to village center and Ortahisar castle, parking is free and reserved for hotel clients. Our room was nicely decorated and clean. Breakfast is turkish style, mostly savoury with a decent number of options. The bed was a bit noisy ;) but confortable. The staff was very kind and helpful.

    Sometimes we did need to leave the room door open to cool it down as there is no AC and the internet is sometimes unreliable when in the rooms but this didn't affect us too much.

    The town is quiet and away from the crowds of Goreme and the hotel is walkable distance from the town centre. The room was lovely (and a very cool experience to be in a cave like environment!) and had all the amenities you needed. The breakfast was amazing every morning and the terrace is beautiful to relax on. The staff were also all very friendly and helpful with whatever we needed, particularly Ms. Neçla - teshekur edirim :) All in all a wonderful stay and would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in a slightly quieter part of Cappadocia away from the crowds :)

    Despite the secluded location, our front room was a little noisy in that every car that came down the lane sounded like it was coming into our room & there were more cars than expected.

    This is a sweet, gem of a hotel, beatifully restored with many thoughtful details; lighting, bathroom amenities; the location is wonderful in a quiet town and well off the main square yet easy walking distance to the trails. Breakfast was excellent with many items made fresh that morning. Didn't get the name of the women who ran it but we called her the 'den mother' as she was warm. welcoming, helpful, despire little English, and always had a bright smile!

    There was a dog on the property, close to the rooms, that belongs to the owners which barked every night several times a night, not allowing us to have a full rested night. And even after leaving the room, in the middle of the night to complain, nothing changed and the situation kept repeating it self. The breakfast was also weak, and with little option One of the rooms we stayed in did not smell good during parts of our stay

    The location, and the lady who took care of the place Nadjla.
