Tafoni Houses Cave Hotel

Had a truly lovely stay at this hotel! The rooms were clean, comfortable, and welcoming, and the overall atmosphere was just what we needed. The restaurant was equally impressive—every meal was delicious and beautifully prepared. Special thanks to Yunus, our kind and attentive waiter, and the chef, whose dishes were a highlight of the stay. Their warmth and professionalism made the whole experience even better. Highly recommended!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our experience at Tafoni Houses Cave Hotel was unforgettable. The rooms were beautiful and unique, but the real highlight was the food — especially the testi kebabı. The Chef Sadi prepared it perfectly: tender meat, rich flavors, and served with a great presentation. Huge thanks to the chef and staff for such a delicious and memorable meal. Highly recommend staying — and definitely don’t miss the testi kebabı!

Wow! First impressions…clean, beautiful and very romantic. The staff have been welcoming and delightful upon arrival. Chef made a local special for me at dinner, which I must say was full of flavor and cooked to perfection. This is THE place to visit

My wife and I had the pleasure of staying here for 2 nights, and it couldn't have been better. Beautiful location, friendly service, and incredible rooms. Honestly for the price, you'd be hard-pressed to find better value anywhere in the world for a unique luxury experience. We were here in low season, just after the first snow, which made for gorgeous scenery. The temps were COLD, below freezing even in daytime. But the room (106) was amazingly comfortable, perfect temperature the whole time, with a heater so quiet we couldn't even hear it. It even had a heated bathroom floor! The room was plenty spacious, the bed was comfortable, and it just felt like every aspect was well-designed. The restaurant was excellent as well, both for breakfast and dinner. Their Turkish breakfast for two (included in our rate) was huge, and a unique experience in itself. We also booked a sightseeing tour through the hotel concierge, which was amazing. So much cool history in the area, and our guide was great. The hotel is about a 5-10 minute walk (uphill) to Ortahisar Castle and the center of town. The whole town was very quiet at the time we were there (November), but most restaurants and shops were still open. For someone looking for a quiet getaway, I highly recommend this time of year for this region! And I'll highly recommend Tafoni Houses for anyone looking for a unique experience in a beautiful area.

I stayed here for 3 nights and cannot say enough about the kindness of the staff. Every team member o encountered went above and beyond - you really felt the Turkish hospitality. Even the chef came out to check on me each dinner - his food is amazing by the way and the biggest hidden gem in the region. The accommodations are lovely and the area the hotel is located in is quiet. It has a lovely authentic feel that I truly appreciated. Highly recommend - stay here, eat here and enjoy yourself.

Extremely beautiful rooms that offer luxury and comfort! If the service could improve it would be 5/5. Tafoni Houses offer really big and spacious “houses” with even a jaccuzzi inside. This cave hotel is located near the center but beware that you have to take your bags and luggage up many stairs! Service was conveniently always abscent when you had to carry your bags upstairs. The staff speaks English but with difficulties so sometimes it is difficult to communicate. While the rooms are incredible and a dream, the service at the restaurant was super slow. Sometimes they were just smoking outside or disappeared for loger period of times. The prices are also very high and the food just standard. The breakfast is a looot, and in my opinion could be managed better to reduce waste. The tour packages they offer you at the reception are also overpriced so we just avoided them and booked separately. They also have a fire outside which may be nice for the cold nights but the smoke and smell tends to get into your room so get used to the smell of burnt wood. Overall very luxiorious rooms but with a weird atmosphere and service that wishes for more.

The staff at the hotel were very friendly and accommodating. Meals were exceptional, the chef wanted to make sure we were pleased with our meals. Our cave room was interesting enough to take a video. The largest bathroom we have ever had and very modern.

I want to thank you so much for our wonderful stay at your gorgeous Tafoni Cave Hotel this week. I don't know that I have ever stayed at a more beautiful place or in a more beautiful and unusual room. You were so kind to us, arranging our amazing balloon ride (!) and our wonderful tour with Gonul, who knows so much and was so interesting and energetic in her discussions with us. Your chef is spectacular. We loved our dinners and our HUGE and wonderful breakfasts. It is a wonderful, beautifully designed hotel, that took us into a world so unlike our own. We were so lucky to be there!
