A great little hotel, with wonderful service, lovely decor and amazing views. For weary travelers, the enormous shower head was particularly pleasing. The stroll up to the castle takes about 5 minutes and affords one of the best views of the region. Overall, a wonderfully serene and comfortable stay.

If you want to stay away from the tourists, this is the place to be. First of all, the best way to see the area is to hike and Murat takes you on free guided hikes. Not only that, he'll take you on the best routes where there are no tourists. Make sure you go with him to the Red... More

Sometimes you meet a special person who touches your life. Murat, who owns this hotel, is such a person. He, and his staff, made us feel very welcome, helped us to plan our visits and even took us out on a hike to the magical Rose Valley. We loved the experience of staying in a cave hotel. Our room had... More

We stayed for four nights. The hotel is very well situated and of good standard.
