Guven Cave Hotel

My wife and I stayed here as part of our trip to Turkey in August/September 2023. There is a lot that my wife and I loved about this place! The location is amazing! Just a short walk from downtown Goreme and all of the restaurants, yet facing some of the most beautiful views of fairy chimneys in Cappadocia with an amazing rooftop terrace to watch the balloons in the morning. The room itself was quite nice and spacious, and definitely gives off that cave vibe that Goreme specifically and Cappadocia generally are famous for. However, I do have a couple of complaints: 1) the owner was a little pushy on selling trips/tours. We have booked everything beforehand and he seemed frustrated by that. He also made some comments about he could have gotten us things cheaper. If I wanted that commentary I would have asked for it. I just found it annoying. 2)The bathroom was small and not well designed. I am a tall guy, and when I sat on the toilet, I had to open the glass shower door to stick my legs in because there was no room for them. Furthermore, the shower pan does NOT keep the water in the shower, it went ALL over the floor when having a shower. 3) The hotel did not provide us with any free water. This is more of a general gripe with Turkey in general rather than this hotel specifically, but the Turks seem very stingy with their free water. Normally when I stay at a hotel in a location where the water is not safe to drink, they usually provide a couple of bottles of water free of charge. But none of the hotels in Turkey did, and come on! There weren't that expensive in Turkey and its 35C outside! I think these things could easily be improved and this hotel would be so amazing because of it. Other than the above mentioned things, this place really was great!

The hotel owner is extremely enthusiastic and helpful. He tries every way to help us fix the error in our booking. The staff are warm and kind and very patient. We were cared for like members of their family. The rooms are also very clean and cool in the summers, with a decent view of balloons at dawn. 10/10 recommended.

Göreme' nin eşsiz manzarasında biz sanki evimizdeymiş gibi konforu ve huzuru yaşadık.Anadolu insanının samimiyetine Ali ve Veysel abinin sergilediği tavırlarla bir kez daha şahit olduk.Her şey için çok teşekkür ederiz.Bu güzel insanlarla ve aile sıcaklığı hissettiren mekanlarıyla tekrar buluşmak dileğiyle...
