Cappadocia, Turkey, as a location, is one of the most unique natural settings anywhere and hence attracts tourists from around the world. Our hotel, Argos in Cappadocia, fits beautifully in this setting. Apparently, the owners are architects who have essentially remodeled multiple houses on the cliff side into very comfortable and spacious rooms that fit in the setting beautifully. We stayed here for two nights and arrived during a heavy snow storm. Our room had a wood-burning fireplace which is lit for you when you call the front desk essentially any time during the day or evening. Our breakfasts were very sumptuous and delicious and so was the one dinner that we had. We were to leave at 5:30 in the morning for our flight from Kayseri (almost 90 minutes away). Because the hotel is on a steep hill our driver parked the car at the top of the hill and hotel attendant carried our bags to top. All of that worked well but although our guide had asked for breakfasts for us, somehow that was lost in the communication. We got a very nice note from the management about this glitch. Despite some tweaking in their service delivery, it is one of the memorable places we have stayed. Heavy snowfall only made the setting more magical.

Beautiful property with amazing views. They had a huge Turkish breakfast and everything was delicious. The staff was professional and accommodating. If you go during the pandemic, rest assured that they have very good sanitary and safety practices in place. Staff members wore masks, they had sanitizer readily available, they provided masks for guests, provided the means for social distancing in the public areas. It is in a nice area and easy to walk around.

Argos is a place that I completely surrender to. The staff is present and responsive but also the property is devised in such a way that I always have a restful space and a feeling of privacy to recharge and recreate. The views in every direction are a masterpiece of design in nature. A deep bow to the gardeners and landscape artists. Frames are everywhere - be they the graceful arch of a passage way, an open window or door , or the natural ports of a cave- landscape architecture is high art at Argos. Textures, colors, sumptuous fabrics against rough stone, carpets and kilim bright against the dusty rose and mustard landscape. Sigh. The bedding and towels are always fresh, well appointed amenities, and the wonderful room staff always willing to refresh seamlessly. In the mornings the great sighing balloons fly overhead like passing whales and in afternoon the light plays on the vast surreal landscape. Yes like a dream. I can sit the whole day and watch the sky show. Why even leave when to explore the magnificent Argos property is an artistic experience of its own? Breakfasts are a buffet of delicacies and very fine coffee and cay. Seki Restaurants fare is Ottoman sublime. Have I gushed enough? It’s true. I love you Argos.
