Alexander Cave House  

On the edge of Göreme National Park in Ürgup, this small family-run cave hotel sits in a quiet residential spot but just minutes from restaurants, bars and shops. Walk to Ürgup Museum and the Temenni Wishing Well in about 15 minutes. The rooftop looks directly onto Ürgup's cave castle and Wishing Hill, perfect for sunrise views over the fairy chimneys.

Restored in 2014, Alexander Cave House mixes cave-hotel character with simple, modern comforts. There are six guestrooms with minibars, satellite/LCD TVs, tea and coffee facilities and slippers. Most rooms have private bathrooms with jacuzzis, three rooms include fully equipped kitchens, and all rooms are centrally heated in winter.

Enjoy a rooftop terrace, picnic area and barbecue on request. Free Wi‑Fi keeps you connected and free valet or nearby parking makes drives easy. Concierge and tour desk staff arrange Cappadocia tours and hot air balloon rides, and an airport shuttle is available for a surcharge. Laundry, dry cleaning and a safe-deposit box are on site.

A conference hall is available for meetings. The hotel also offers a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage and complimentary wireless internet to support business needs.

A traditional Turkish breakfast is included and can be served in the breakfast room, in your room or up on the roof terrace. Barbecue facilities can be arranged on request, and limited room service is available.
