Hotele Romantic w: Nevsehir Province, Türkiye

The hotel lobby felt like a cave. When checking in, you could ask the front desk about the hot air balloon launch status for the next day. The terrace has a great location and offers an excellent view for watching the hot air balloons. It's also just a ten-minute walk to the sunrise and sunset viewpoint. Being right in Göreme town, it's very convenient to get around.

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.

We stayed in a spacious double room on the first floor. The beds were neat and clean, and the room had beautifully designed furnishings. The internet connection in the room was excellent. My friend needed to attend an online meeting from the hotel, and I was initially worried that the internet in a cave hotel might be unreliable, but it wasn't an issue at all – the connection was perfectly smooth. The pillows had a lovely scent, whether it was a pillow spray or laundry detergent, it was very pleasant and helped me sleep soundly. The complimentary breakfast offered a wide variety of options, though I personally didn't quite get used to the cheese. There was an extensive selection of jams, and eggs were available fried, boiled, and in other preparations. I highly recommend trying the ”Turkish eggs.” The guesthouse boasts an excellent location. It's only a 4-minute walk to the main bus station for buses heading to Avanos (the pottery town) and Uçhisar Castle. The sunset viewpoint is about a 10-minute walk away. There are many souvenir shops clustered nearby, which are great for browsing. Goreme itself isn't a large town, so all the good restaurants are within walking distance. In the evenings, you can experience Turkish nightlife, enjoy the night views, watch Turkish elders play cards, and listen to live guitar music at small bars. Most importantly, the Turkish gentleman who works at the reception, Mehmet, was incredibly kind. He's very young and speaks excellent English. He can help arrange hot air balloon rides and vintage car tours. He's very patient and will constantly check for the best prices for you, always saying, ”If there's a better option, I'll let you know immediately.” He's also very responsive via email and WhatsApp. A small detail that really stood out: when Mehmet sent the check-in notification via email, besides English, he also included a machine-translated Chinese version, which shows how thoughtful he is. When replying to my inquiries, he even put the machine-translated Chinese first, followed by the original English. These little touches really make an impression! After we checked out at 11 AM, my friend needed a place to write her thesis. Mehmet kindly arranged for her to use a spot in the kitchen with an outlet, and he repeatedly asked if she needed water, tea, or anything else. He was so incredibly kind that my friend and I felt almost embarrassed. Just a small suggestion: if possible, it would be great to offer a wake-up call service for guests going on hot air balloon tours. You could ask guests their planned departure time in advance and then arrange a wake-up call accordingly. It's so easy to oversleep when you have to wake up at 3 or 4 AM for a hot air balloon!

It was a wonderful hotel from start to finish! Even before our stay, the staff were very kind and gentle with their replies to our questions, so we were able to make our reservation with peace of mind. On the day of our stay, the staff were very kind and gentle, and the mascot dog, Max, was very cute! We stayed for 2 nights and 3 days, and the staff and Max were soothing every day☺️ Of course, the room was perfect, and it was a very clean and lovely cave room! We had given up on eating breakfast on the second day because of the time constraints of the tour we had booked, but they kindly said that they would call us when the pick-up arrived, so we could eat until then, and we were able to relax while waiting for the pick-up. If we go to Cappadocia again, we would like to stay at this hotel! It was a wonderful honeymoon! Thank you😊
