Find 3-Star Hotels in Goreme

First, we asked the front desk to book a hot air balloon ride. They quoted 85 euros, saying it all goes to the hot air balloon company and doesn't include tips. The next day, when we were on the hot air balloon, we talked to some other Chinese tourists who booked the same ride and they only paid 50 euros... We basically got ripped off 35 euros, tearing up inside. Our room had flies, and the sheets had orange stains that hadn't been washed out. When we reported it to the front desk, they gave us an insect spray, claiming it was colorless and odorless, and told us to use it. Later, we paid an extra 70 euros to upgrade our room, which was already a 4-digit price per night. The location is quite remote. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to the town center, but walking under the strong summer sun with intense UV rays was really tiring, with lots of uphill and downhill sections. So, we ended up taking taxis everywhere during our stay. On our second day, around noon, the cleaning staff directly entered our room using a password, startling me awake from my sleep. I can't recall anything else right now, but I'll add more if I remember.

Hands down, a five-star review! The biggest surprise of this trip was meeting such a thoughtful owner. Seriously, the best hotel owner in the world!!! We arrived in Cappadocia at 5 AM, and the temperature difference was significant. The owner, worried we'd be cold, let us check in a full 8 hours early. That was incredibly heartwarming and considerate!!! The owner was warm and polite, making conversations comfortable and easy. Any questions we had were answered meticulously. The room was spotlessly clean, the environment was quiet and comfortable, and all the amenities were well-stocked. From reception to check-in, the entire experience was fantastic, and the attention to detail truly won us over. Excellent value for money, absolutely smashed it!

Location is very central which is good for tour pick ups. Hotel was nice and clean. Only problem was ventilation - we got the stone room, and there was immediately a bit of a sewer smell lingering in the room that hit us, which was a bit unpleasant. It went off once we got the heater going. Other than that, everything else was good. Breakfast was the best part though it starts quite late, 830am to 1030am.

Its advantages lie in its excellent location, very close to the bus station (just a few minutes' walk), eliminating the need to drag luggage uphill. Hot air balloons can be seen from the hotel terrace in the morning. The hotel facilities need improvement, especially the bathrooms; there are no shower doors, and the faucets could also be replaced.

A beautiful hotel and a wonderful experience. Goreme is so beautiful and this hotel is located not too far from the central places where you can find lots of great restaurants and souvenir shops. The room is naturally cool and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed the whole atmosphere at the hotel and the outside seating areas are perfect for relaxing after a long day of touring. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

I rarely write reviews, but I believe this hotel truly deserves recognition for its outstanding service. I stayed at this hotel for 3 days and 2 nights, and the experience left a lasting impression on me. In fact, the exceptional hospitality I received here has greatly shaped my perception of Turkey, especially Cappadocia. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the front office staff, Mr. Ali. As my bus from Istanbul arrived earlier than the check-in time, he kindly arranged an early check-in for me, which I greatly appreciated after a long journey. Throughout my stay, Mr. Ali went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable. On the day of my departure, while I was waiting for my overnight bus, I rested in the hotel lobby. Mr. Ali thoughtfully kept the front office area warm and even provided me with a blanket to ensure I stayed comfortable. What impressed me most was how personalised the service felt. Rather than simply treating me as a guest, the staff genuinely cared about my well-being and comfort. Such kindness, attentiveness, and hospitality are rare to find and made my stay truly memorable. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Cappadocia. Thank you, Mr. Ali and the team, for making my stay such a wonderful experience.

I really liked this hotel; the cave hotel concept is perfectly executed. The location is excellent, the room has all the necessary amenities, and the rooftop offers a great view for watching the balloons at sunrise. Breakfast is a standard buffet: vegetables, eggs, sausages, and a large variety of sweets and fruits. The only downside is the lack of windows, which causes a slight, but not critical, musty smell. The staff's service was outstanding – we had a plumbing issue which was resolved within an hour, and afterwards, they brought a fruit platter to our room as an apology. They also provided wine glasses for us to use outside the hotel in the evening, as per our request. Even though there were many guests during our stay, we didn't hear any noise in our room. Overall, for its price, the hotel fully delivers on quality and service.

Avlu Cave Hotel is a quaint famiily-owned hotel of about 8 rooms. It is conveniently located 3-4 minutes from the Goreme center. During our stay, we received first class service from the manager, Jan, and his assistant, Naji. Within minutes of arriving at the hotel, Jan offered breakfast. The buffet of traditional Turkish breakfast and some continental items was beautifully laid out in their breakfast room. I did not think we had breakfast on arrival day, but I was thankful for this generosity as we left Istanbul so early and were ready for a good meal. In no time also, Jan and Naji, who were really very hospitable, filled in with activities our incomplete tour plan. They made arrangements for the horseback riding sunset ride, the hot air balloon ride, and one of the tours. They also arranged earlier our airport pickup and later, transport to the airport. The room we occupied had a balcony and we made good use of it to soak in Goreme in between our outings. Avlu Cave Hotel provided us the perfect homey ambiance that we wanted to experience in Cappadocia. This is an ideal place for solo travelers, couples, as well as families.

Facilities: The bathtub in the room is superb, not only big but also with massage function. It is very cool to take a bath after playing around the town. Hygienic: OK, after all, it is a stone house, you can't ask for too much Environment: It is very close to the love garden of watching the hot air balloon. It can be reached in 20 minutes on foot. It is also within walking distance to the most central and observation deck of the town. Service: You can book the car to Kaisai Airport directly through the hotel. The price is relatively affordable on time. The staff service is very warm and the English is very smooth. If the breakfast is late, there is really nothing to eat.

This was a wonderful hotel! The room was clean, and the bathroom facilities were spotless. It was so lovely to be comforted by the cats and dogs at the hotel. The hotel staff were incredibly kind, even helping me book my overnight bus. They kindly held my luggage after check-out and even let me use the terrace and reception area, which made my trip incredibly fulfilling. I would love to stay here again!
