Central Anatolia, Turkey
Destination guide
Surreal shaped landscapes rich in troglodytic ruins, walking trails and delightful cave hotels in the ancient heart of Anatolia.
Recommended place to stay:
Urgup, Central Anatolia, Turkey
Official star rating:
A very small, beautifully owner-managed hotel in Urgup’s prime Esbelli district.
What also distinguishes the Serinn is the modern styling of the hotel – no old kilims and period artefacts here but sharp lines, bright pastel colours and the like of state-of-the-art reading lights – too often a failing of Cappadocian hotels.
Here, there are good-sized rooms, pin-clean, great breakfasts and exceptional hospitality, even by Turkish standards. The spacious terrace is excellent for outdoor lounging.
The location, the Esbelli district, is well-placed for downhill (10-minute) walks to central Urgup’s restaurants and other attractions.
Esbelli, occupying the slopes above the centre of Urgup, is a quiet residential district of old stone houses and cave dwellings occupied by a harmonious combination of discreet boutique hotels and local farming families.
Quiet, narrow lanes offer a range of easy ten-minute walks into town, with its range of shops, restaurants and a fine hamam.
