Our room was fantastic... carved into the hillside with a large bed and generous bathroom. The staff were excellent, and helped us in a particularly difficult situation when our bank froze our online accounts. They were able to arrange a call for us to the bank, as well as give advice for tours, etc.. We would definitely recommend this hotel.

From the moment we arrived at the Niche Cave Hotel, we felt like we were home. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and effortlessly elegant, but what truly sets this boutique hotel apart is the extraordinary level of care and attention from every single staff member. The team went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect—offering thoughtful restaurant recommendations and anticipating our needs before we even voiced them. It wasn’t just hospitality; it was genuine kindness and attentiveness that made us feel completely cared for. A special mention goes to the manager of the hotel and her husband, who brought such warmth and personality to every interaction. Their service elevated each evening we spent there. In a city full of hotels, Niche Cave Hotel stands out as a place where luxury meets heart. It’s not just a stay—it’s an experience of feeling welcomed, looked after, and part of something special. We cannot recommend it enough and will absolutely return.

Best location and best service and staff.

I recently stayed at a charming cave-style boutique hotel - the Niche Hotel in Cappadocia, and it truly exceeded my expectations. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel like part of the family—friendly, attentive, and incredibly helpful. They even went out of their way to assist me with a tire pressure warning issue on my car, which was such a relief during my travels. The hotel itself is cozy and full of character, carved into the rock in true Cappadocian style. Breakfast was a highlight each morning—plenty of delicious options, and they prepare fresh dishes on the spot that really hit the spot before a day of exploring. But what makes this place truly special is the location. It’s nestled at the bottom of the hill, just steps from the town center, so after a long day of sightseeing, you don’t have to climb uphill to get back—such a thoughtful convenience! Even better, it’s only about a 9-minute walk to one of the best sunrise and sunset viewpoints, perfect for watching the hot air balloons drift across the sky. In short, this hotel doesn’t just offer a place to sleep—it offers a place to feel at home. If you’re looking for warmth, comfort, and unbeatable access to Cappadocia’s magic, this.
