My husband, my parents and myself stayed here for three night while we enjoyed the spectacular cappadocian landscape. The hotel has authentic cave rooms carved into the hillside and great views from the terrace (unbelievable sunset views). We landed quite late at night, and they still had a hot dinner waiting for us. The rooms are spacious both our rooms... More

Novel, fun experience staying in a cave. Heated bathroom floor, fridge, kettle, Wifi on terrace. Cute but not well appointed. It is a cave after all... 10 minute walk to cute town of Urgup. walk back is uphill but not difficult for 60+ couple. Saw 40 hot air balloons each morning at 7am from our own terrace. The food was...

Great location 1km from town centre up steep hill. Convenient for Ziggy’s restaurant – the best in town. Comfortable cave rooms and views over the valley. More

We stayed in this lovely cave hotel for two nights. We were late arriving from the airport but they had sent the pickup car for 25 TL per person. He even had free wifi. We arrived an hour later from Kayseri airport. The reception was waiting for us and took us to our rooms. The room was spacious with all... More

I cannot adequately express how much I loved it here. I booked 2 room for our little group of 3, and was over the moon when we arrived to find we had our own private enclosed balcony and we had been given the rooms with Turkish baths. OMG. You would not believe how amazing these bathrooms are. I came down... More

My wife and I stayed twice at this wonderful home. The amenities are first rate, spacious and nicely furnished. One cannot help see why humans left the cave when it is so comforting to dwell inside a natural space. Of course the available convenience of electricity, heating and water is welcome. We arrived in a rented car (stick shift can... More

My daughter, grandson & I were so happy we chose to stay is this beautiful cave hotel - how often will you get to sleep in a room carved into the side of a cave? - very clean, comfortable beds, separate patios with stunning views of the area. Outdoor dining room at the hotel where they served local cuisine or... More

Great idea: Experience a cave home with modern amenities. Beds firm, room & bath clean, electricity somewhat precarious [table lamp fell off/broke from very uneven shelf where it was placed, not by us]. We liked the various levels, private patio and views are stunning. Never saw any staff except one man at breakfast who brought coffee when asked. We had... More

Comfortable bed with lovely linen and the room kept very clean. We loved the reading space carved into one side of the... More

I stayed at Elkep Evi for two nights while touring Cappadocia, and highly recommend it. The hotel sits high on a hillside, so the views are amazing. My cave room was charming and very clean, with beautiful Turkish village rugs on the floor, and an arched stone ceiling overhead. Each room is set apart from the others, providing great privacy....
