Located right on a valley rim, with exceptional views, this striking design hotel is set amidst tranquil gardens in a country setting.

It’s minimal and modern, partially built into the local stone, partially above ground. The overall feel is light and uncluttered, though some of the detailing such as the gold taps may be a little glitzy for some tastes.

The views are stupendous views, even by Cappadocia’s high standards, well admired from the lobby, restaurant and lovely, outdoor landscaped terraces with subtly lit seating areas.

The hotel occupies a prime patch of rural Cappadocia which it has all to itself. It’s quiet, discreet and rural. It’s hidden away off the Uchisar-Goreme road, where footpaths lead to both towns and into the nearby valleys. Both towns are well served with restaurants, cafes, carpet and jewellery shops.
