Chelebi Cave House, Nevsehir, Turkey

The Chelibi Cave House setting was absolutely lovely. It had a beautiful courtyard, easy walk to the central merchant area, and best of all, the room options offered you an opportunity to step back in time. The terrace has fanatic views of the fairy chimneys and the town of Gerome. We ended up taking a lot of pictures of the property and surrounding areas. The owner Ismail converted it in to a small boutique hotel with another family member. We paid a little more to stay in the ground level cave room and it was worth it. We had an outdoor seating area and plenty of space to stretch out and relax. Our suite even had an original tandoor that was still intact and converted into a display area. The included breakfast was homemade and tasty. You didn't go hungry at all with the daily spread of options and Turkish chai or drinks at any point of your stay. The staff even made us customized breakfast sandwiches to go on our last day. We did a balloon ride with one of their recommended vendors and also opted for a private and customized tour with Ismail. Both were excellent. We chose the private tour over the regular red and green tour packages advertised throughout town to give us some flexibility and to avoid the tourist crowds. We are very happy we did as we were listening to local and international tunes along the way. Ismail made us feel welcomed and answered questions about the local area. In no time, we were cracking up with jokes and sharing photos we took of the sites we vi

The water system in shower room had problem. It needs to be renovated.

I cannot speak highly enough about Chelebi Cave House Hotel. Rooms are great and spacious. The views across the unusual landscape and town are unforgettable. A few minutes walk from the centre, it benefits from being small and intimate. The family who own this hotel are represented by two brothers who go out of their way to ensure you feel at home and will do anything you need regarding arrangements or tours. Take their advice as it is good and they are superb hosts. Breakfast is wonderful here. If you have never had rose petal jam you are in for a treat. Rooms are well equipped. Value for money here was way above anywhere else I stayed in Turkey and I would go back to this house often. It is private without being lonely and really made us feel like we wanted to stay longer. Cappodocia is worth at least 5 days, we only stayed 3 which allowed us to do the excellent Blue tour, marvellous quad bike sunset tour and the extensive and fascinating outdoor museum in Goreme. Goreme itself is ideal as a base and its a relaxed town which is lovely to idle in also. Gentlemen, treat yourself to a shave with Omar in the barbers on the end of the street. he is amazing!

This place is great, I really loved it and enjoyed it... Everything was perfect, I recommended 100%. It's a good place for friend trip or couple. Great price value... and the breakfast was excellent. We also hang out with our host, great people there. Couple of blocks from downtown, hill up, you would need nice snickers. To get there from airport, your best option it might be to schedule the shuttle form the hotel...

Great hotel,cannot fault anything, would use again.
