Очень уютное, тёплое и душевное место с невероятной атмосферой и заботливой хозяйкой — мы в полном восторге!
Pros:

Абсолютно всё! Особенно хозяйка — невероятно заботливая, душевная и внимательная. Она помогла нам выбрать лучшее место, чтобы встретить рассвет и наблюдать за воздушными шарами — это было незабываемо! Завтраки просто чудесные: настоящий турецкий стиль, всё свежее и с любовью приготовлено. В номере уютно, тепло и очень чисто. Интерьер аутентичный, с атмосферой старинного каменного дома, но при этом со всеми удобствами.

Cons:

Ничего — всё было прекрасно, хотелось бы остаться дольше!

Pros:

Die Lage vom Hotel war sehr toll, die Umgebung herrlich und leicht zu begehen.Wir haben uns spontan für das Hotel entschieden und waren mehr überrascht als was wir uns vorgestellt hatten.Die Frau Aygül führt den Hotel Konzept und war eine sehr nette, zukommende und hilfsbereite Dame, die uns auch alles sehr gut organisiert hat. Bespiel das Abendessen beim Restaurant Hezen und die Tour mit den Quadbikes zu erkunden.Natürlich hatte Sie uns auch Vorgeschlagen in der Früh rechtzeitig die Ballons in Göreme zu besichtigen.Es war leider nur eine einzige Nacht die wir verbracht haben, aber wir sind sehr Glücklich das wir eine sehr gute Entscheidung getroffen haben und würden beim nächsten mal Definitiv wieder hier her kommen.Vielen herzlichen und lieben Dank für das Service und Engagement Frau Aygül.
Ich wünsche alles Liebe und das Beste für die Zukunft, bleiben sie so wie sie sind, weil Sie sind ein fröhlicher Mensch den wir sehr gut Einschätzen können. 🫶🏼

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Familie KORAL

Cons:

Es gibt nichts was uns nicht gefallen hat !!
Die Zimmer waren von der Ambiente Live vor Ort viel schöner und schicker als wie in den Fotos!
Ich empfehle es jeden herzukommen und sich die Lage vorher anzusehen bevor man sich für etwas entscheidet ! 😉

Anbefaler Iris Cave Cappadocia med hele mitt hjerte!
Pros:

Vi har vært på mange hotell, dette kommer vi til å huske for alltid. Tenk å få bo i en grotte! Vertinnen var super hyggelig og serviceinnstilt. Organiserte og fikset.

Cons:

Det ryr litt støv/sand fra taket, men det må man forvente hvis man skal bo i en grotte.

It's was just amazing in every way. Our host, Aygül, was incredibly experienced and attentive, always welcoming us with a smile, and we felt at home immediately.

Great, fresh and abundant breakfast and a great view of Ortahisar's Castel from the terrace.
The room was a REAL cave, beautiful, cosy, very private, chill, and clean.
Good wi-fi, tv, and a fridge.

Cons:

Wonderful , cosy place with great host!
Pros:

It’s a cosy place for a short stay in cappadochia . Ideally located few minutes drive from main Goreme town , this is a wonderful place to stay .
The owner , Aygul, is the most gracious and friendly host ever ! She has a great sense of taste and has done up the cave room so beautifully and every detail is taken into consideration.
She is very kind and always ready to help . You just have to ask her and she will do her best .
Her pet , Coco was the cutest and we simply adored her !
We enjoyed our stay at this wonderful hotel and I highly recommend this place .

Cons:

Since it’s a cave hotel ,it’s understandable that pieces of rock and dust keep falling . Not too great for people with asthma or chest issues .
But for others , it’s no issue at all!

great place! i would recommend to friends and family going.
Pros:

Room was excellent. Big enough for my family of 5 to stay comfortably for 3 days. Aygul served a very good breakfast both days we were there to eat and on our 3rd day when we had to check out early she gave us something to take on the road, which was very kind of her. She also helped to book us hot air balloons and ATV, which was a huge help.

Cons:

just a warning to tall people, my husband is 6 ft tall and he could not stand under the shower and the jacuzzi tub didnt seem to work. Since its a cave, little fragments of the cave kept falling around the room. in the bathroom into the tub. its to be expected if your staying in a cave i guess.

Vacation in Cappadocia - Iris Cave Hotel
Pros:

Amaizing personal (Mrs. Aygül), clean rooms, delicius and very rich and fresh breakfast. You can reach best (and cheapest) Shops in whole Cappadocia on foot right from hotel + amazing/adrenalin Ortahisar castle (entrance only 50TL for adults)! My recommendation to all, that are searching for vacation in Cappadocia!
PS: Mrs. Aygül speaks fluently also English and Germain, so also our kids could speak with her on Germain language. In addition, she has many connections with activities in Cappadocia (e.g. ATV Quads, fly with baloon etc.) and can arrange best discounts and prices for her guests, especially for fly with a baloon!

Cons:

There was no single thing, that I could put as a comment here!
