Travel Inn Cave Hotel

Tarik (Receptionist/Hotel Owner) was very hospitable, speaks good English and made our stay comfortable. He even contacted us ahead of our trip to assist us in booking our hot air balloon ride at a decent price. We are a group of 4 people and we stayed in the Family Room (cave room) which consists of several beds (4-5) and small sofas on each side. After a long drive from Kayseri Airport, the hotel was easy to find in Goreme, we just used Google Maps all throughout our stay in Cappadocia. Parking was not an issue as we have parking spaces in front of the hotel. Tarik also showed us a good restaurant (Fat Boy's Restaurant & Cafe) owned by relatives and/or friends across the street where they served good meals with again a decent price. Try their "hot wine", it's nice to have especially this freezing season. One of the most important things you need to consider if you want a nice view of the hot air balloon is to have a great rooftop place. A lot of hotels offer this in Goreme but some are overpriced and overrated. This hotel, as for my experience has one of the best views of the hot air balloons during the morning as the hotel is from the other side wherein you can see most of the hot air balloons being set up and fly towards your area. The hotel and the rooftop are by far higher than most of the hotels too. I was able to get wide-angle shots of Goreme plus the hot air balloons flying as well. Breakfast was simple but very good to start your day. The whole house/hotel is really cozy and the beds were comfortable and it's a sleeping magnet. Definitely we will recommend the place and might get back.

The Wi-Fi internet is weak inside the room. You may get a good signal in the lobby but not consistent. So if you require heavy internet usage for social media or business then please check with the reception. It's not a showstopper though as you can get a good internet connection at restaurants nearby.
