Selcuklu Evi Urgup - Ürgüp

Our room (Terasli Oda) had a dark wooden floor, wooden beams on the ceiling and white stone walls, an antique-looking wrought iron bed and my favourite, a bakelite telephone which worked.

The large marble bathroom had a towel warmer, jacuzzi tub with sliding doors, toiletries and slippers.

There are also cave rooms on different levels which all seemed to be comfortable, and nicely decorated.

I had a lovely, good sized, sunny room in the main building tastefully decorated with a great attention to detail.

The rooms in the hotel are lovely, and have been very carefull restored by local craftsmen using original materials.

On the first night we arrived on the late flight into Kayseri (the closest local town), so we missed breakfast the following morning.

Even though the waiting staff had cleared down the restaurant they were more than happy to sort us out with a cup of coffee and a plate with a slection of goodies.

There's quite a few decent restaurants in the locality (Alaturka in nearby Goreme and Somine in Urgup were both good), so you may want to venture out.

The breakfasts and dinners were really excellent.

There are a couple of tortoise and a very sweet cat that come by at breakfast.

This hotel was among the best class that we ever stayed in and the staff was very helpful.

After a long flight, it was great to get such good service.

Even though I was the only guest, there was no lack of staff: 3 gents picked me up from the bus station (included in price), and another 2 checked me in.

Even though I was the only guest and they could have "modified" their services, I was waited on by a nice young man, and there was a lady who appeared out of nowhere to make me fresh gozleme.

It also has a door through to a private terrace which overlooks both the secluded garden and the square outside the hotel.

From the hotel's top terrace you get a create panorama of the town of Urgup and the valley below, with the added bonus of the deserted cave houses above the town flanking the back of the hotel.

Friendly service, clean rooms and especially my little private terrace.

Friendly staff and the rooms were very clean.

Friendly staff, room was clean and the buffet breakfast was also fantastic.
