When In Turkey

Our stay at the Elkep Evi cave hotel in Cappadoccia was an amazing experience. Each of our cave room came with its own private rock-cut terrace. The view from our terrace was brilliant especially in the early hours of the morning. We could see dozens of hot air balloon rising up in the horizon, besides the volcanic mountain Erciyes.

With its cozy rooms, homemade Gozlemes (savoury Turkish pastries)and its unparalleled view of the Capadoccian dreamscapes – it was hard not to fall in love with this exquisite hotel.
