"The view of the balloons is absolutely amazing. The hotel doesn’t promote its terrace and balloon view enough! There is one terrace on the room level – but that one is not great, the balloons are hardly visible there, much worse than from other hotels in Goreme. However, on the rooftop there is another terrace, a bit neglected and run-down (during the day stray dogs and cats often sleep there). Still, the view from this terrace is fantastic. You get a 180-degree panoramic view of the balloons – to the left, to the right, in front of you, and even above you. Truly spectacular. In my opinion, it’s an even better viewpoint than many hotels in the center of Goreme. The hotel is very cheap for Cappadocia standards, so overall I would recommend it, especially if you plan to stay more than 2–3 days and don’t want to spend a fortune on hotels in the center of Goreme."

"There is dampness in the rooms. On the first day we stayed in a room without a window, and at check-in we hadn’t noticed that there was mold in the bathroom. It was hard to breathe, and during the night my airways became irritated. The next day we asked to change the room, and the staff did so without any problem. This time we got a room with a window, and that was a much better choice – it wasn’t as damp and there was no mold in the bathroom. Still, the room had a specific smell, but at least it was possible to sleep and function. Breakfast was small and not very tasty."

"The facilities were excellent, and everything we needed was well taken care of. The view was amazing — we could see the rising hot air balloons and the sunset from the balcony. The breakfast was delicious, and the atmosphere felt as comfortable as home."

"The staff were attentive and friendly. They went above and beyond catering to my mother who is celiac, and arranging breakfast for us prior to departure despite being before breakfast time. The caves suites are incredible and cool in heat and hot in the cold. I would book again in a heartbeat"

"The hotel is absolutely beautiful – a true Cappadocia experience. The rooms are spacious and carved into the rock, giving a unique and authentic feel. Breakfast was excellent, and the view from the terrace is breathtaking. The staff are extremely kind and welcoming. We give the hotel our highest praise and would gladly recommend it to anyone."

"Authentic cave hotel unlike others that call themselves 'cave' hotels but are free-standing Being located out if Goreme in Cavusin ended up being ideal for balloon viewing every morning and was a pleasant 30minute walk into town when we wanted to go. Plus it's more closely situated for Red/Rose Valley hikes Room was beautiful and had everything we needed, the breakfast was good too"

"Being a cave hotel the ventilation wasn't great so the bathroom could remain damp and smelled a bit but I suspect this is common to all cave hotels"

"The room is clean and spacious. It's comfortable and quiet. It's a good location to view the hot air balloons in the morning. Breakfast selection was reasonable and sufficient."

"Uphill and narrow street to the accommodation - making it difficult for SUV car and parking. We had some damage on the bumper unfortunately."

"The staff were incredibly helpful from the start and made us feel very comfortable asking for anything. The breakfast was excellent - mainly cheeses, breads, olives, cereals, etc. From the roof terrace, you can see all of the views with the best view in the area. Such a magical place to sit and enjoy a morning coffee."

"As the rooms are cave suites, they get dusty and could perhaps do with a good vacuum and clean. Having said that, the rooms were very clean but there were some dusty parts in the corners and crevices. The location is near to a handful of small restaurants, so it is best to rent a car if you wish for more options."

"Exceptional stay & exceptional staff! Phocas Cave Suite exceeded our expectations.We can wholeheartedly recommend them, they went the extra mile for us! In addition, we wanted to do a photoshoot, they assisted with recommending a photographer and assisted with the booking as well."

"The breakfast was very good, plenty of choice and freshly cooked/prepared food. Good presentation and nicely served. The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. They provided us with local information and gave us coffee when we checked out at the end of our holiday and had to wait for a late coach trip home."

"The hotel is at the top of a steep cobbled hill which is not really suitable for people with mobility issues/asthma/heart conditions. It would be a good idea to mention this in the description of the property. The area is fairly quiet so if you are looking for more choice for evening meals/bars etc Goreme may be a better choice."
