5 friends and I stayed here in April. Staff members were very helpful (especially Suleyman), particularly in arranging airport transfer, bus tickets, tours, balloon rides, and recommending local hangouts from restaurants to spas. Kitchen staff was helpful and friendly. Breakfasts and dinner in the 3rd floor dining room with view of the valley were good values (breakfast bufffet included; ala... More

I had an amazing time staying here -- ended up extending my trip to just under a week because of it! The hospitality, food, distance, comfort, and ESPECIALLY Gul Bahar in the Restaurant all made me feel like family. I was heartbroken leaving the place. Highly recommend a stay here! More

My friend and I were on a tight budget on a month long backpacking trip throughout Turkey. Through a local travel agency, Walkabout Travel in Istanbul, we were connected to Shoe string. Similar to other hostels/hotels in this area, they creatively implemented the cave/mountains theme with cave rooms and beautiful, nature filled surroundings. We stayed in the dorm-style room, which... More

My partner and I stayed at Shoe String Cave Pension over Christmas in 2011 and enjoyed our time very much. The rooms are clean, spacious and very different! Internet was solid across the whole hotel including in the rooms and they also offered a good breakfast. Would recommend a stay short or long. More

The staff at the shoestring was extremely helpful and friendly. They will help you with booking tours and other activities. They even helped me get a refund for a balloon flight that got cancelled even though I booked it through a travel agent in town. More
