Karlik Cave Suite Cappadocia

A peaceful gem on the hillside near Uçhisar Castle – the perfect escape from Göreme’s bustle. Perched on a gentle slope leading up to Uçhisar Castle, this hotel offers one of the most tranquil and scenic stays in Cappadocia. While it doesn’t have the lively buzz of Göreme, it more than makes up for it with peace, stunning views, and a relaxed atmosphere. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a refreshing welcome drink—a chilled lemon juice—which was just the vitamin boost we needed after a long journey. From the terrace, you can enjoy panoramic views of Göreme Valley and even catch a glimpse of Mount Erciyes in the distance. It’s a truly luxurious moment of stillness and beauty. I highly recommend choosing a volcano-view room—waking up to that breathtaking scenery is unforgettable. The rooms are styled in a classic stonework design, echoing Cappadocia’s cave heritage. While I felt the interior could have had a bit more elegance considering the price point, the overall atmosphere was cozy and authentic. One of the highlights was the bathtub with a view—soaking while overlooking the valley is an experience you won’t forget. However, due to the unique layout of hotels in this area—often built into the rock and closely connected—it’s good to be aware of privacy when using open-view facilities like the bath. Breakfast is served as a set plate with a focus on fresh vegetables and cheeses. Eggs can be ordered, but it would be nice to have a bit more variety. That said, having breakfast while friendly cats roam around adds a touch of charm that’s uniquely Turkish. Though the hotel is slightly removed from the center of Göreme, it’s still within walking distance to Göreme National Park if you’re up for a bit of a trek. Along the way, you’ll pass some incredible viewpoints that are well worth the effort—perfect for sunrise or sunset walks.

It has been a wonderful stay, all staffs here are amazing, great hospitality, friendly, attentive. The place look exactly like photos, great location, clean, comfortable, even you have nothing to do in the city just hang in the hotel terrace is good and relaxing with a great view. Definitely five stars hotel service! I also like the quietness within and around the hotel even just 5 mins walk from the castle. Breakfast was wonderful as well, great selection, long hours, taste good.

Would definitely recommend if you are wanting a quieter Cappadocia experience compared to Goreme. Restaurants nearby and breakfast in the hotel is amazing. Rooms offer great views and staff are brilliant.
