This hotel has an extremely high standard for cleanliness, the rooms and hotel grounds are IMPECCABLY clean. The staff are incredibly welcoming, friendly and hospitable. The beds are comfortable. There are many little details in the room that add to the feeling of staying in luxury…beautiful bath robes, slippers, shower gels, shampoo/conditioners etc. Wonderful, hot (powerful) shower. Delicious, home cooked breakfast that cannot be missed with freshly made omelettes and different varieties of hot and cold dishes every morning. Amazing location with parking right out front and beautiful views from the terrace where you can watch the balloons. Walkable to everything but away from the busiest part of the Goreme. Communication was amazing through WhatsApp even before we left for Turkiye. Murat booked our unforgettable experience of a hot air balloon ride with a reputable company. I spent hours researching hotels to stay in Goreme, this was the best decision we made staying here and by far our most memorable stay during our 2.5 weeks in Turkiye. Do not hesitate, just stay here!! You’ll be so glad you did.

Absolutely nothing.

We have just spent a fabulous week in Goreme Cave Lodge, Cappadocia, Turkey. A small, perfectly proportioned, family run hotel just a five minute walk from the centre of Goreme. A brilliant location A varied breakfast buffet was included with the choice of a variety of cooked eggs eg omelette with veg and cheese (or your own choice), fried or scrambled eggs. There was different hot food on offer each day, as well as delicious, fresh crusty rolls, local bread, salads, cheeses, many varieties of olives and jams, Turkish coffee and tea, and freshly made cake and biscuits. This was all served with such friendliness by the staff who couldn’t do enough for you. Our room was spacious with a very comfortable bed, air conditioning and a modern bathroom with powerful shower. A small fridge with a constant supply of free bottled water Each evening, one of the staff would arrive with a plate of fruit (or sometimes mixed nuts) for us both. The staff organised all our trips and told us which ones they would recommend. When I originally booked our trip, I received a WhatsApp message from the hotel asking if we would like them to book our balloon flight. I agreed and they said it was 220 euros each and I could pay when I came. I received a message back telling me it was all sorted and they looked forward to welcoming us. Our trust in them grew when we arrived and they told us our balloon flight had been reduced and was now only 130 euros each! (It was something to do with Turkey trying to attract more tourists to Cappadocia). They then booked our sunset horse ride (making sure the horses were looked after), the Whirling Dervish show and the taxi to take us there and back. The hotel had a beautiful clean swimming pool and a comfortable rooftop terrace where we spent two mornings getting up at 5am to watch the hot air balloons lazily drift over the town. So relaxing to watch! We also spent a few midnight hours up there enjoying the cool of the night and watching the ci

Nothing negative at all

We really enjoyed our stay. The cave room was beautiful, big and super comfortable in all ways (bed, pillows, temperature, light, bathroom). It's in a very good and calm location, 3min walking to the center of Göreme and with the most beautiful view of Uçhisar castle and landscape. Delicious breakfast by the terrace, with local food as well as more continental options. But the highlight must be the hosts and staff. So helpful, friendly and attentive. They really take care of you and make you feel so welcome and at home. It's a local family business, the owner's grandparents lived exactly where is now the hotel and you can somehow feel the love invested here.

That we didn't stay longer

An unbeatable place: amazing staff, super welcoming, very polite and with a very calm and natural vibe; the hotel is great, according to the photos: a pool to relax, a rooftop for the end of the day or for the early morning to watch the hot air balloons fly over Göreme and very confortable rooms. We enjoyed a lot our one in the cave, a very special and different concept! 5 minutes from the town center, easy to access on foot. The staff helps you with anything. Since the breakfast (which mixes global with local food, it's really good!) until suggesting places or tours to go, they are all really kind and prepared! Consider doing the Turkish bath and spa experience (it's not at the hotel) which is unforgettable! Mr. Murat recommended it and it was 10/10! Special thanks to Mr. Murat and Mr. Abdul for being so helpful and also for keeping so good conversations! All the recommendations they gave us, turned out to be an excelent experience, from tours to shops to buy luggage. Everyone very reliable and good-hearted!

As something to improve, I would mention the pillows. In my opinion, they could be a little bit more "solid" because I felt they were too fluffy. But maybe it's just a matter of my personal taste. We were really happy with everything!

We stayed 2 nights at the property and extensively walked around the town, Pigeon valley and nearby town. The area is very safe and the towns are pleasant to tour. We did most of what we wanted by walking but there are many other options including organized tours. The hotel was ideal for our trip. There is a breakfast area at the top including a carpeted outside sitting area that was great for photos. The bed was comfortable and we were able to arrange laundry services. The owner of the hotel was onsite and did a great job looking after our needs. The hotel team was constantly offering refreshments (tea/coffee) and was very helpful.

I have stayed in countless hotels and visited nearly 100 countries. It is the first time I have taken the time to write a review. Everything was perfect: the room to every detail (water pressure, internet, electrical plug, fridge), the service from very good breakfast and little touches like late afternoon snacks to accommodating every personal need: private airport shuttle, balloon, private taxi for the day, last-minute change, tour booking, anything really! And very competitive pricing on top of all of that. The owner and his staff are all very attentive and made the trip so special. It is conveniently located, 3’ walk to the busier area. They are the definition of going above and beyond. They welcome my mother, who does not speak any English or Turkish, in the warmest way possible.

Just an exceptional place deserving a straight 10 out of 10. Spent 3 nights

Our experience at this property was exceptional and exceeded our expectations. The location is superb, centrally situated with easy access to restaurants, cafes, and supermarkets. The room was immaculate, very clean, and comfortably warm. The bathroom was well-appointed and aesthetically pleasing. The staff demonstrated remarkable professionalism and care, making our stay truly memorable. Their thoughtful gesture of baking a cake for my birthday was particularly appreciated. Additionally, Leo, the resident cat, added a delightful touch to our experience. We highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a superior accommodation experience. We look forward to returning in the future.

Our stay here was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was exceptional. Murat and his team went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of, and it truly made our time in Cappadocia unforgettable. The location is perfect — just a 3-minute walk to the center, yet the place is very quiet and peaceful. Our room was spotless, the bed was very comfortable, and everything was well-maintained. The service, warmth, and care we received made us feel right at home — so much so that we’re already planning to come back! We highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Cappadocia. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

This is the most beautiful hotel and the staff are wonderful. We found everything amazing here at this hotel. The hotel itself is stunning. Beautifully made and decorated. The bedrooms and en-suites are big, comfortable and beautiful. The shower and power of water is so sublime I could have spent hours there and the water gave me great hair day. The restaurant for breakfast is also well thought out, it’s on the top floor and has amazing views. The little roof terrace seating area is big enough and very comfortable. We were hoping to see the balloons pass by this morning, but it all depends on which route the wind takes them. We were lucky enough to do the balloon trip the morning before and it coincided with my friend’s birthday. It was the most peaceful and beautiful experience. The staff at this hotel are very kind, helpful, friendly, trustworthy, warm and just beautiful people. They helped us to arrange the shuttle transfer return from the airport to their hotel, and back again. It’s a very reasonable €12 pp one way and a 1 hr journey in a very comfortable new minibus. The staff also helped us to arrange our hot air balloon journey, and we re really glad they did after hearing some horror stories and outlandish prices from other tourists on our travels. They arranged a good price and a very reputable company. We felt incredibly safe in our pilots hands. We re not sure if it was luck or being friendly and smiling to the driver but he put us in the best position on the hot air balloon journey basket, which was obviously also much appreciated. We re only sad that we didn’t plan to stay longer here. This hotel is also perfectly positioned to explore Goreme, there are plenty of beautiful restaurants within 5/10min walking distance. One of our favourites was Mozaic and also Topdeck restaurant. Again the hotel staff recommended and booked us a table for my friends birthday, at top deck restaurant.

That we couldn’t stay longer.

We had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. The reception staff were friendly and welcoming — even though we arrived quite late around 11 PM, they received us with patience and care, which we really appreciated. The owner was also kind and gave us helpful advice for getting around and planning our day trips. We had booked two rooms, and one of them — my friend’s room — was kindly upgraded for free. The other room (mine) stayed the same, but that was just because I didn’t feel like packing and moving rooms. Still, it was a nice gesture from the hotel. One of the main reasons we chose this hotel was because the rooms have windows and are well-ventilated, unlike many cave-style accommodations that can feel a bit stuffy. Overall, we were comfortable and satisfied with the stay, and I’d recommend it to others looking for a relaxed and friendly place.
