    Nothing :)

    It's was just amazing in every way. Our host, Aygül, was incredibly experienced and attentive, always welcoming us with a smile, and we felt at home immediately. Details: Great, fresh and abundant breakfast and a great view of Ortahisar's Castel from the terrace. The room was a REAL cave, beautiful, cosy, very private, chill, and clean. Good wi-fi, tv, and a fridge.

    Since it’s a cave hotel ,it’s understandable that pieces of rock and dust keep falling . Not too great for people with asthma or chest issues . But for others , it’s no issue at all!

    It’s a cosy place for a short stay in cappadochia . Ideally located few minutes drive from main Goreme town , this is a wonderful place to stay . The owner , Aygul, is the most gracious and friendly host ever ! She has a great sense of taste and has done up the cave room so beautifully and every detail is taken into consideration. She is very kind and always ready to help . You just have to ask her and she will do her best . Her pet , Coco was the cutest and we simply adored her ! We enjoyed our stay at this wonderful hotel and I highly recommend this place .

    just a warning to tall people, my husband is 6 ft tall and he could not stand under the shower and the jacuzzi tub didnt seem to work. Since its a cave, little fragments of the cave kept falling around the room. in the bathroom into the tub. its to be expected if your staying in a cave i guess.

    Room was excellent. Big enough for my family of 5 to stay comfortably for 3 days. Aygul served a very good breakfast both days we were there to eat and on our 3rd day when we had to check out early she gave us something to take on the road, which was very kind of her. She also helped to book us hot air balloons and ATV, which was a huge help.

    We were very impressed with this cave room. It’s unique and clean. The location is also near to town and easily accessible to tourist places. Aygul was very friendly and helpful during our stay. She helped us in booking our red tour and taxi to and from airport. Would love to visit again.

    Vacation in Cappadocia - Iris Cave Hotel

    There was no single thing, that I could put as a comment here!

    Amaizing personal (Mrs. Aygül), clean rooms, delicius and very rich and fresh breakfast. You can reach best (and cheapest) Shops in whole Cappadocia on foot right from hotel + amazing/adrenalin Ortahisar castle (entrance only 50TL for adults)! My recommendation to all, that are searching for vacation in Cappadocia! PS: Mrs. Aygül speaks fluently also English and Germain, so also our kids could speak with her on Germain language. In addition, she has many connections with activities in Cappadocia (e.g. ATV Quads, fly with baloon etc.) and can arrange best discounts and prices for her guests, especially for fly with a baloon!

    It was an absolutely amazing experience. We enjoyed our lovely stay. We thank a lot to our host sister Eyegul. We stayed 3 nights with family including kids. Living in cave rooms was a unique experience itself. Host made it homely and convenient. Her hospitality was from heart and very passionate and kind. No words to speak about it. Breakfast was freshly made and superb. Our stay in Cappadocia in this property will always be remembered.

    We just loved our stay here. Nothing was too much trouble. Beautiful breakfast on the terrace with views to the castle. Room was beautiful with two additional camp beds as we are a family of five. Plentiful hot water and our girls enjoyed the jacquzzi bath. The host was so welcoming and arranged our Balloon tour for us as well. If we were around she would offer us tea and coffee and other local delights as well. We were able to park the rental car on the street just up from the hotel quite easily.

    I have traveled quite a bit and been to about 40 countries. Aygul, the host is one of the best people you'd meet. She did above and beyond during our stay to make sure we're comfortable. She took us to the hot air balloon viewing at 4am with breakfast and coffee! She offered us coffee, teas and treats all day at no extra charge. Breakfast is delicious with homemade bread at the nice terrace. Her place is stunning with amazing views. The rooms are spacious and the bedding is very comfortable. Surprisingly, Wifi works well even in the cave rooms! 2 mininte walk to the taxi stand in the town with restaurants and shops and 5 minute taxi ride to Goreme or Uchisar.
