Guest Reviews

- Aina (10/5): また泊まりたい！！ - テラスが最高だった なし
- Cristina (10/5): -
- Kathryn (8/5): Excellent location and beautiful Turkish hospitality. - Very attentive and warm host who cooked for us and helped us with recommendations in the local area. Comfortable room with excellent bed and shower. Room felt private and cosy. Terrace was very relaxing. No buffet breakfast. There is construction in the local area but the sound did not bother us.
- Dionel Emill (6/5): Muy bonito pero sin atención y muy lejos del centro - Las habitaciones son muy bonitas. No hay atención, no hay personal, no hay desayuno, no hay nadie que te atienda, solo una señora que nunca está en el hotel. Si te falta algo no lo conseguirás. Está muy lejos del centro hay que escalar un cerro para llegar al centro. No me gustó la ubicación y la atención
- Jaroslawa (10/5): - Unique place but it was Neclar who made my stay really wonderful.She was attentive,warm and friendly and made my feel home
- nathalie (9/5): - The hotel is charming and the staff adorable No breakfast available at the hotel
- Kirsty (10/5): - Really lovely accommodation, ideal for exploring outside of the tourist crammed Göreme (but not far away if you want to pop back). Very handy for visiting the castle. Super clean, beautiful room and bathroom - with the nicest bed I've ever slept on while travelling. Lovely sitting area outside the room and the terrace is ideal for balloon viewing or lounging about. Super friendly staff.
- Nikolay (9/5): Superb -
- Verified traveler (10/5): Ortalama bir otel için gayet güzeldi - Yerini bulmak birazcık zor oldu ama güzel tatlı bir yerdi minik bir otoparkıda var. Odalarda temizdi fakat birazcık rutubet kokuyordu bu zaten genel olarak mağara cave otellerin bir problemi çok kötü değildi yatakta baya rahattı. Ortada küçük bir avlu var sabah çay içmek için güzel bir yer biz arabayla gittiğimiz için ulaşım nasıl bilmiyorum ama arabayla çok sıkıntı olmadı yolu bulduktan sonra
- Idil (10/5): - We had a very nice stay! I would recommend. Necla was very friendly and helpful. Thanks!
- Busra (10/5): - Konumu merkezi bi yerde. Oda güzel bakımlı ve temizdi. Memnun kaldık
- Dre_nomadlife (10/5): Amazingly kind hospitality by the owner - We had a great cave hotel experience, in a nice and authentic small city. True authentic cave rooms, it really feels as if you are sleeping in a cave. Warm welcome, lovely breakfast, cosy rooftop terras. Great location its 5min walk from city center.
- Theana (8/5): Very good -
- Hani (8/5): Very good -
- Cihan (10/5): ilgili personel - personel çok ilgiliydi, oda temiz ve konforluydu.
- Julie (8/5): - Had a lovely 5 night stay at Elaa Cave Hotel. Great base for walking into Ortahisar and getting around the region. Stunning castle views from the rooftop terrace. With an early morning flight into Kayseri, having check in from midday was great. Stayed in Rm 55, which in the photos looks like a double but was two singles pushed together. This wider bed made the room feel small. Bed was extremely comfortable. Great to have a fridge and hanging rail, although a few more hangers would have been useful. Delicious buffet breakfast with plenty of choices. Staff was very welcoming, helpful and accommodating. Would stay again and highly recommend.
- Ela (10/5): Cosy cave, feels like you’re staying with family! - We absolutely loved our stay here. Necla and Ruth were so lovely and went out of their way to make our stay great. The rooms are so beautifully decorated and the different common areas are so great to relax in. Amazing views of the other cave hotels, balloons in the morning and a short (but steep!) walk to the town and restaurants and more great views over Goreme.
- DongWook (4/5): - We were unlucky and got a bad unit. We didn't know about it on the first night. The unit had humidity issues. Bad funky smell in the bathroom. Bad smell in the entire unit. Ceiling kept falling apart and little bits and pieces of rock and sand kept dropping to the ground. We were with a group of friends, and our other room was fine. I'm pretty disappointed because this room was marked as the better and bigger room but it was worse - we couldn't use the couch because there were always sand and rocks falling on it, and it would be dirty
- Andrey (10/5): - Sehr sauber, nette Vermieterin.
- Akaz (10/5): Really great, the host makes you feel like you’re at home. Such an amazing person, went out of her way to arrange things - Such a nice place, great vibes, great host who went out of her way to arrange things for us, such a lovely person, felt like home, definitely would recommend stay at elaa caves
- aleksey (10/5): - Great host and beautiful little hotel in a local area. You live in a cave. Great experience.
- Maggie (10/5): Amazing hospitality and value in a unique location - Cozy fun cave room with a good bed and storage. A problem with the shower was fixed immediately. Delicious breakfast on a beautiful terrace. Necla is hospitable and friendly. The shower layout meant the floor always got wet. Two lightbulbs and a curtain rail were broken.
- Jan (10/5): - Super tof, overnachten in een grot.
- Zakawialias (10/5): Awesome - Unique architecture No elevator
- Ionel (10/5): Exceptional - Clean rooms, quiet area, kind host!
- Ida (8/5): Godt hotel - Det var virkelig godt! Men der manglede lidt rengøring. Derudover synes vi at byen manglede spisesteder
- Rafa (9/5): Superb - Host super nice and helpful. She solved every problem we have. Great location. Expensive breakfast
- Lindsay (10/5): Lovely stay! - A lovely B&B hotel with a personal touch!
- Sunit (7/5): Good - Breakfast was average and location is also ok We expected to get the actual cave room but what we got was stone room.
- Öznur (10/5): - İşletme sahibi aşırı ilgili çok güler yüzlü bir hanım, işletmeye ekstra puan kattığını söyleyebilirim, kahvaltısı güzeldi odalar tertemiz en önemlisi
- Oki (9/5): Superb - Beautiful spacious rooms and it's really an experience to stay here ! The hotel is located few minutes away from the ortahisar castle. And it's beautiful at night . The stay was very comfortable and delightful. However if you are vegetarian or vegan the food is limited at breakfast . The hotel also seems short staffed. But overall a wonderful way to experience Ortahisar and the beautiful terrace of the hotel !
- Gregoria (10/5): - We loved the "Relax" atmosphere. Necla welcomed us as if we were family. Elaa Cave is close to a lot of the activities making it a perfect location regardless of budget. The center is walking distance. Great businesses and friendly people.
- Denys (10/5): Exceptional - Cave was perfect and clean ,but it is not for long stay 😅 staff was so friendly
- Ni (8/5): Very good -
- Cinziaora (6/5): Less than expected - We booked 2 rooms directly with the hotel for our stay in Cappadokya. When we arrived in the afternoon there was a young boy at the reception and the receptionist spoke with us at the phone. Firstly we were shown 2 rooms in the main building, then we were rerouted to the Elaa Suites building, about 200mt further, where one room was shown to us and it was ok. Therefore we move with all luggages to the Suites building. We discovered then that the second room was half the size of the other room and very dark. We asked to have a larger rooms, so we moves our luggage to a bigger room, available only for that night. On the second day we had to move all luggage again to the small room and the third day we decided to leave the hotel. Breakfast is organized with a small and crowded self service table at the first floor and few seats (not enough to accomodate all the guests of the rooms when it's raining or cold) and a terrace on the 2nd floor with 2 sun umbrellas, one is not standing still. Carrying food and drinks on the terrace is made by guests. Not very comfortable on small stairs.
- Junaid (10/5): An excellent place - Everything was delightful and to our satisfaction
- Nigel (9/5): Brilliant gem of a genuine Cave experience. - The room was great, we had a suite a short walk from reception. The room was a proper cave and was unique. Breakfast was brilliant . Neigla the manager was great and couldn't do enough for us. The bed was very comfortable a really good size room with a few great little sitting place nooks, Many places say they are cave hotels but aren't really. This is the real deal !! Didn't have anything to complain about, it was one of the better places we stayed during our trip.
- Igor (9/5): Thank you for your service! We were very pleased. - Good location, service and price! The owner greeted my family well, was friendly and professional. My son could not turn on the TV and the wi-fi was not always stable in our room. This was not critical for us during one night.
- Kentaro (8/5): - 宿のマダムが非常にフレンドリーで親切でした。 シャワーが破損したのもすぐに対応してもらえました。 ただ、支払いがカードだと調子が悪いらしく現金がいいと言われたのが少し手間でしたが、マダムの人柄が良いので、ATMに行くのも苦にならなかったです。 またカッパドギアのこのエリアに宿泊する事があればリピートしたいです。
- Bogdanel (10/5): Lovely stay - Lovely cave house, clean rooms, the manager is very friendly. Loved the parking option Not necessarily a complaint but the bed in one of our rooms was very squeaky. The internet is sometimes really slow
- CharlesR691 (10/5): Comfortable and Friendly - The Ella Cave Hotel provided a warm and friendly vibe, and a comfortable place from which to explore Goreme and Cappadocia. We were first-time visitors to Turkey and loved the authentic experience of staying in a hotel carved out of rock. The owner, Ruth Lockwood and her cheerful team of Neesha and Ahmet happily organised tours and transit; and nothing seemed to be too much trouble. Ruth’s other business, Tribal Collections was also well worth a visit after we read about it the Lonely Planet guide to Turkey. Here we found a range of interesting rugs produced by local women. Ruth’s knowledge of rug-making and what to look for is encyclopaedic.
- Meghan (10/5): - The staff here is absolutely wonderful and super helpful! If you’re looking for a gorgeous cave experience, ELAA is perfect! Off the beaten path and nice quiet location!
- Richa (10/5): Exceptional -
- aebmelbourne (10/5): Quintessential cave hotel, inviting and relaxing - A classic Capaddocia cave hotel - exactly what you want when visiting this extraordinary area. It is quiet and relaxing, but only a short and cheap taxi ride from the Goreme mayhem. The decor is stylish yet cosy. And, yes, it is very clean. Our hostess Ruth was lovely and full of great ideas on what to do in the area, and Necla's breakfasts were a treat. Staying here was a highlight of our Turkey trip.
- Shubham (4/5): Beware of references from reception. - Please make sure not to use the local taxi number provided at the reception. The Taxi driver usually takes longer routes to charge more. Horse riding services were decently priced. Others not so much. During my trip I stayed in another 4 star hotel in Goreme and they provided more reliable services
- Nurul (8/5): Comfortable and very good staff. - The location is quite nearest with the town but you need to walk up the hills. The roof top not same as like in the photo.
- Hüseyin (10/5): Harika bir otel - Konaklamada çok memnun kaldık. Odaları çok rahat, bütün eşyalar özenle seçilmiş, yatak, yastık çok rahat. Çalışan çok ilgili, güler yüzlü. Ortam temiz.
- Senol (10/5): - Bizimle ilgilenen Ablamıza Teşekkür ediyoruz,Misafirperverlikleri mükemmel işletme Sahibi Abimizin Sohbeti ayrıca güzeldi Teşekkürler her şey için.
- Giovanna Beatriz (10/5): - El hotel y las habitaciones son muy acogedoras, te hacen sentir en casa, Necla la encargada del hotel es muy dulce y siempre estaba pendiente de todo lo que necesitábamos, el desayuno era delicioso (en especial las galletas) Espero volver pronto. Recomiendo ampliamente este hotel.
- Elaine (10/5): - Absolutely beautiful!! Clean, comfortable and great views! Staff amazing will do anything to help you, Breakfast was beautifully laid out every morning and delicious. Highly recommended
- Nasir (9/5): Superb -
- Vyoma (10/5): - My best friend and I both stayed at the Elaa cave hotel for two nights and had the BEST time ever. The manager is SO sweet. She helped accommodate anything and everything that we needed, from providing food when we first entered and sat on the beautiful terrace to helping arrange for a taxi when we were running late to the airport and couldn’t find one. She also provided extra water bottlers and was in touch with us 24/7 for anything that we needed or came up. She is the sweetest person and our stay at the cave hotel was amazing. The room is actually pretty warm/good temperature (which is exactly what we needed as we heard cave hotels can get cold!). We both highly recommend everyone to stay here! The taxi driver was super kind as well.
- Tunyaporn (9/5): It was great! - Staying in a cave scared me a little while making a booking. But once I arrived the room looks so perfectly clean, modern and looks new! Staff was helpful and always check on me if I need anything during the stay. Location is ok you can walk to the top for some restaurant but nothing much. Unfortunately there no Balloon flying above 🙂
- Ferhat (8/5): - Das Gesamtpaket hat einfach gestimmt. Wir wurden von Anfang bis Ende sehr gut betreut. Die Chefin hat uns persönlich bei Fragen immer geholfen und war stets freundlich. Ich kann die Unterkunft mit gutem Gewissen weiterempfehlen.
- Fabio (8/5): Nice, cosy hotel that may need few touches but good position, amazing terrace and lovely owner. - The hotel is very nice and well decorated. Nice turkish breakfast in a beautiful terrace with amazing view. The room needs a bit of maintenance. There were a couple of things that could be improved. For example the wardrobe was full of extra pillows and duvets and we did not have space to put our clothes or the fridge that was not working. It may help if the lovely owner of the hotel could speak a bit more English. Also there is a lady leaving above the rooms with a dog that barks all night long. That was definitely a downside for us!
- Nilav (9/5): Superb - Good

- Nishaat (9/5): Superb -

- Ana (7/5): Nice place, nice location - The location, and the lady who took care of the place Nadjla. There was a dog on the property, close to the rooms, that belongs to the owners which barked every night several times a night, not allowing us to have a full rested night. And even after leaving the room, in the middle of the night to complain, nothing changed and the situation kept repeating it self. The breakfast was also weak, and with little option One of the rooms we stayed in did not smell good during parts of our stay
- Damla (10/5): - Genauso eine Unterkunft stellt man sich in Kapadokya vor. Mega schön. Großes Zimmer , für uns vier plus Kind mega gut. Von dort aus sind alle nennenswerten sehenswürdigkeiten gut zu erreichen. Sehr freundliche Gastgeberin. Wir können uns den tollen Bewertungen nur anschließen.
- Sebastiao (8/5): Séjour agréable Romantique - Endroit sympas très agréable. Il faudrait améliorer l’accueil car on est arrivé et pas de réceptionniste sur place. On a dû attendre que quelqu’un arribe pour appeler. Endroit propre chambres magnifiques petit déjeuner très bons
- Audrey (9/5): Peaceful Ortahisar at Gorgeous Elaa Cave Hotel - I stayed in suite 99 in the units across the little road from breakfast and reception. If you are ok with steps up a few terraces the flat is gorgeous. Impeccably decorated with a collection of Ottoman antiques, incredible carpets and gorgeous textile artwork. The are multiple day beds to curl up to read a book, large windows in both rooms and a wonderful large bed with fresh linens and excellent pillows. An ensuite tea service and an upstairs private terrace and bathroom with large shower and plenty of clean towels. Besides the beauty of the rooms the great joy is the view into the central village of old Ortahisar. Epic I’m happy I could easily negotiate the metal spiral staircase that leads to the upstairs bathroom and private terrace. If a person has mobility issues I know there are more suitable and equally beautiful suites on the property.
- 305almaa (10/5): First time in a cave hotel in Cappadocia - Had a lovely 3 night stay here. Extremely friendly team and very clean. Our room was beautiful and a great experience, would definitely recommend staying here and just a few minutes walk to the square with a variety of restaurants and shops.
- Shuaib (9/5): Superb -
- Sandra (6/5): short staffed on every area - stayed for 3 nights, when we arrived around 6 pm, there were some hiccups, but the lady eventually found my reservation and told me, my room is on another street,( they now have 2 buildings) and I will need to walk 5 minutes to the main building for breakfast. which is fine. however, when she show me the room, it was very dusty and had a damp mold smell, one of the beds doesn't even have bed sheet on. That is no AC, so I requested a fan to keep the fresh air. I understand most of the cave room has dust and dampness problem but after I saw the room next to mine, the room was ready-made and cleaned, I then realized the hotel wasn't aware of my reservation for today. it's a beautiful hotel, but short-staffed. breakfast is ok, it's kind of messy because they aren't enough tables. nice people, but I won't return again
- Oktay (2/5): Kanalizasyon kokan oda konusunda önceden uyarın - Kanalizasyon kokan bir odada kalmak zorunda kaldık. Necla hanımın güleryüzü ve güzel hizmeti o kötü kokuyu maalesef gidermedi. Bu şekilde bir odayı kiralamamaları gerekirdi.
- Jodo (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was wonderful. We had a very warm welcome, fantastic breakfasts, an outside sitting area, plus rooftop area with great views. Our large cave room had tasteful and luxurious furnishings, and a king-size bed with quality linen. The ensuite had a good shower, big vanity and thick towels. The staff were friendly and very helpful with all of our various needs and requests. I highly recommend this hotel, and would definitely stay again.
- Mevlana (10/5): - Bir gece kaldık ama çok beğendik, Aile için harika bir yer, bizimle ilgilenen Necla hanım çok sıcak sevecen biri, sanki misafirliğe gitmiş gibi hissettik,olabilecek en iyi ilgi alakayı gösterdiler. Kahvaltı çok iyiydi, odalar temiz, yataklar çok rahat kesinlikle tavsiye ederiz ayrıca otelin bulunduğu yer şirin bir mahallede akşamları keyifli bir yürüyüş yapabilirsiniz.

- Lanna (10/5): - The owner is very friendly and helpful and its very quite
- Anthony (10/5): Excellent hotel with kind employees - This hotel was outstanding and the manager was very kind and helpful. Ortahisar is a quiet city and much better than Goreme if you are looking for someplace that is not a tourist trap in Capadoccia. I highly recommend this hotel.
- Katty (10/5): - Me.gusto la atencion de la.propietaria, siempre.muy amable, la decoración del cuarto, la limpieza. Muy cómodo
- Arpit (5/5): Passable -
- Antoine (8/5): Very good -
- Yusrah (10/5): totally loved the experience of staying at the hotel , would definitely recommend it to all the staff are incredibly swe - beautiful beautiful cute staff loved them to bits . we were welcomed every morning and evening by the lady which I forgot her name and I think her son the young gentleman that oversees the place at night making sure whatever we needed he assisted it was an absolute pleasure to stay at the hotel having more lights in my room as some lights weren’t working and if the property had Netflix streaming channels as the normal tv channels weren’t as entertaining especially if you don’t understand the Turkish language
- Fatema (7/5): Good -
- Aliona (10/5): Beautiful place with amazing terrace - Clean, nice room. Good parking spot for hotel guests. One of the highlights of my stay was rooftop terrace, which offers stunning panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. Owners of hotel so welcoming and they care a lot of their guests. Breakfast is very very tasty, but individual serving of Turkish breakfast (like others resorts do) instead of buffet could make stay even more special.
- Shelby (10/5): Exceptional - Chic
- Gérard (10/5): - Un bel endroit typique de la région et décoré avec beaucoup de goût ; accueil sympathique, petit-déjeuner raffiné.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Overall good. Service could be better.
- Marcelina (10/5): - Good stay
- Khurram (10/5): Excellent experience - Great communication beforehand with booking shuttle. The hotel was clean, great breakfast and nice staff. Would stay again!
- SERKAN (10/5): Otantik bir tatil ortamı, harika bir butik otel - Rahatımız için ellerinden gelen herşeyi yaptılar. Ortahisar Kapadokya’da araçla heryere kolaylıkla erişim sağlayabileceğiniz bir yer. Elaa Cave Otel, güzel ve mutlu olacağınız bir otel. Necla Hanım’a ilgi ve alakaları için çok teşekkür ederiz.
- ?? (10/5): - とても良かったです！価格も立地、人も良くとても快適な時間を過ごせました！
- Hataitip (8/5): Very good - The owner is friendly. The hotel has car park. Wifi is very strong. The view from the roof top is good. I stayed for 2 nights and expected that the hotel would clean up my room everyday but no cleaning during my stay.
- Natalie (10/5): strongly recommend staying here - very charming. rooms were beautiful and very original. landlady adorable. breakfast fantastic nothing
- James (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gözde (10/5): - Tam bir aile isletmesi. O kadar cana yakınlar ki. Hersey mukemmeldi. Gordugum en temiz otellerden biriydi. Tekrar gittigimde orda kalacagim kesinlikle.
- Valeria (8/5): - Eigentlich hatten wir eine Suite gebucht. Wir wussten allerdings nicht dass die Suiten einige Straßen weiter waren. Als wir ankamen konnten wir wählen ob wir die Suite behalten oder ein Zimmer im Haupthaus nehmen. Die Suite hat modrig gerochen und hatte kein richtiges Fenster. Auf den Bildern sah es so aus als Wären zwei Fenster im Zimmer, es waren aber nur Nieschen mit Vorhängen zur Zierde. Das Zimmer im Haupthaus war okay, jedoch unter dem Preis und Standard den wir gebucht hatten. Das Bett war schon etwas durchgelegen, das Bad sehr klein und die Dusche alt. Dafür war es im Innenhof schön ruhig, wir waren dank Lage im Haupthaus schnell auf der sehr schönen Dachterasse und das Frühstück war sehr gut! Am ersten Tag Buffet und am zweiten Tag individuell, da anscheinend nicht mehr viele Gäste da waren
- Hilal Bala (10/5): - Otel çok keyifli ve konforluydu, Necla hanıma ilgisinden dolayı ayrıca teşekkür ederiz
- Neuroniums (10/5): Cave boutique hotel with castle view. - Thr hotel is located next to village center and Ortahisar castle, parking is free and reserved for hotel clients. Our room was nicely decorated and clean. Breakfast is turkish style, mostly savoury with a decent number of options. The bed was a bit noisy ;) but confortable. The staff was very kind and helpful.
- Vacation732759 (2/5): Great start but extremely disappointing - The hotel is great but impossible to get a hold of any staff to book the accommodation, had to call 3 different numbers for 3 hours before they picked up the phone. when we checked out of the hotel I had forgotten couple of dress's and my husband left few pieces of clothing behind the bathroom door. We tried calling so many times but we couldn't get a hold of anyone, finally got a hold of someone and a man took my number and he said to call back and that they will pass the message to manager of the hotel, never got a call back . I kept calling for 4 days finally a man picked up and basically he said sorry we cannot do anything about it and no one has found anything, In reality is either the staff took them or they just didn't even bother looking for it. In normal circumstances a hotel would keep the item for few days and if no one calls for them they get rid of it. when we checked in the hotel room someone had left a pair of pants in the closet so how is it that my clothing just went missing. I'm very disappointed by the experience that started so good and ended so bad and unfortunately would not recommend anyone to a place like that.
- tiare nicole (10/5): - Quiet and safe, at 15 min around from Goreme. Staff very nice and available for every need. Some of them speak just a little English but they try to help you anyway. The room is exactly as the pictures; a wonderful experience!
- Selma (10/5): Exceptional -
