The location and rooms were great, and most importantly, the owners are the best. We were supposed to go on a balloon tour but it was cancelled and they rebooked everything for us. The owner was kind, friendly, homey, and warm hospitality that only a family-run business can provide. The breakfast was nice and cozy. The view from the rooftop terrace was great. I would like to stay longer next time. Highly recommended!

I would only say that the room was next to the dining room, so it was a little noisy.

Our cave room was really charming but the rooftop where we could watch the hot air balloons rise in the early morning really topped it up. We had a twin room and the bathroom was super clean, the shower water flowed great (I appreciated that). I'm pregnant so having the room on the ground floor was a plus! The room had a heater and the bathroom had a heated towel rack, so we were actually able to handwash small items like socks and have them dry by the next day - heaters were on because it was March. The manager/owner helped us arrange a wonderful tour of the green area, and gave us extra info so that we could visit the red area by ourselves. They prepared a scrumptious-looking buffet every morning, unfortunately we don't eat dairy so it was a bit sad that I couldn't enjoy a lot of the options (it's normal to put either butter or cheese on everything in Turkey...). If they run out of something (like eggs), you can ask them to refill, they are so kind. Great location too, we could walk anywhere from here!

I would suggest a water-refilling station somewhere, to avoid so many plastic bottles, but to be honest at least this place uses 2L bottles instead of the tiny ones! And they serve jams in bowls

We loved our stay here! Firstly there's a beautiful friendly hotel cat called Boss who comes to visit guests 😄 Sükrü was a fantastic host. He helped us book a good value balloon ride for the next day and the balloon pilot was so good. He also took an interest in our plans every morning and helped us with directions and suggestions. He even helped us to get a local bus to Derinkuyu underground city instead of the expensive taxi we had planned. The lady who cooks breakfast was so lovely everyday and really spoilt us with her amazing cooking. Make sure you're hungry because it's all so delicious. The location was really good for us, it's only a few mins walk to the center of Göreme but the road itself is nice and quiet. We stayed in the double cave room and loved it. It was so cozy and authentic feeling, and if you like a dark room to sleep in this is the place for you! There is also a roof terrace that is perfect for watching the hot air balloons at sunrise.

Nothing

The hotel was located very close to the town. So it was easy and accessible to explore the town of gorem. Secondly, the staff were extremely friendly, supportive and welcoming, especially the manager sekuru, he helped us right through from the beginning with the booking of the hotel, transfers to the airport and all the activities that we planned to do in Cappadocia. And he gave us some really good guidance on the dos and donts. And last but not the least, the breakfast was exceptional, truly an amazing spread of a typical turkish breakfast. Highly recommend!! Truly the best value for money!

There was nothing we didn't like.

Friendly staff, easy to park, short walk into town. Roof top view of all the balloons early in the morning was spectacular. Good breakfast.

Although the room was ‘cool’, looking like a cave, it meant there was no window or ventilation, a fan or even a window on the door would have been good. Not all rooms were like this. Some did have windows. We found our room was a bit hot and stuffy. The bed mattress was also very old and dipped. Time for the mattresses to be replaced. However, despite this, I would stay here again.

I visited goreme on the first week of November for three nights with my family, the property was a little gem, very close to the city center and offering a stunning view of the balloons! The room was a lovely duplex with a very cute traditional decoration, the breakfast very delicious and fulfilling. The cherry on top was the manager sukru who arranged all of our activities: balloon ride, green tour, horse ride and shuttles for airport, which all turned out to be successful. Thank you sukru for everything 🙏🏻 and we’ll definitely come back if we ever visit goreme again 🎈

Everything was perfect

We had a very good time staying at the Avlu cave house. The location is fantastic (5 min walk from the main road with all the restaurants and shops) so close enough to walk there, but far enough to avoid the traffic and noise. The room wasn’t big, but def enough to suit our needs, and the beds were very comfortable, and every morning there was a delicious homemade buffet style breakfast for all the guests. More importantly than the house itself was how we were treated by the owners. Above and beyond would be an understatement. They helped us set up all our tours and activities, which they paid for in order to get us booked until I could go to an ATM to reimburse them. And they went out of their way to get a cake so I could surprise my girlfriend on her birthday. The owners of the cave house are amazing people.

It’s hard to find anything not to like. The whole stay was magical and full of positives.

We had such an incredible time at Avlu Cave House. Şükrü was so kind and accommodating; he is so knowledgeable about the area, and was a great help in organising lots of fun activities for our stay. Our room had a balcony, and it was magical waking up each morning to the hot air balloons. Avlu Cave House has an incredible view for sunrises and sunsets, which were spectacular. The breakfast buffet is also delicious, with a big assortment of choices. You can feel that there's a lot of love that goes into making Avlu Cave House the place it is - we will be back, and would recommend it to anyone staying in Goreme!

Nothing.

The rooms were carved into the ancient rock, providing a unique and authentic cave experience. The beautifully decorated interiors combined traditional Turkish elements with modern comforts. The terrace offered breathtaking views of the Cappadocia landscape. The staff attentiveness and personalized service truly enhanced our experience. Sukru and Naji went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our trip was seamless. Their genuine care and dedication made us feel valued and well taken care of throughout our stay.

Excellent breakfast with home baked goods, cheese, boiled eggs, olives, jam,and more. The owner went 20 km out of his way to pick up a pack I left on the bus for the balloon flight. He arranged the green tour with the most knowledgeable guide. Naji, who worked the night shift was great and showed us around. Nice outdoor seating areas too.

The cave we had with 2 single beds was a bit small for my taste but other rooms were bigger. Since there is no natural light it can feel a bit claustrophobic.
