I spent a long time reading reviews when trying do decide where to stay in Cappadocia, and ended up choosing Kismet house because many people had commented about the kindness, helpfulness, and friendliness of the family who runs it. It's hard to state how big a difference that made for me on my trip. They truly welcomed me like a family member, even inviting me to a special dinner (they normally only serve breakfast) in the dining room upstairs. My room (Cave room, 104) was exceptionally comfortable and clean, and surprisingly big and had both a jacuzzi bathtub and a huge shower (and heated floors?!?!). The location is excellent, right downtown, a short walk down a side street so it's very central, but also very quiet. The rooftop has many terraces with incredible views, especially good for watching the balloons fly directly overhead at sunrise. The breakfast (served daily) was a huge treat, everything was abundant and beyond delicious and many of the items (jams, dried fruits, yogurt...) were either home made or sourced from the family's farm (they even gave me fresh milk from their cow, which was incredible). Yusuf (a son) was happy to book my tours (Red & Green) and made everything very easy. Faruq (the father, apologies if I'm spelling the names wrong) was incredibly kind and generous and knowledgeable. I will never forget my stay at Kismet Cave House/Mansion, nor the family who made my visit perfect and unforgettable.

Amazing stay! Sahin was amazing before the stay in booking airport transfers. Helped with making booking for tours and balloon ride! Their father, Farrokh was also hospitable with the guests. The breakfast was one of the best I've had, with fresh fruits and produces from around the area. Highly recommended stay for Cappadocia in the Göreme area! Cannot recommend enough and can't wait to be back!

Amazing hospitality

Great location, clean and comfortable rooms and great breakfast (grown in their own farm and locally outsourced). What really sets this hotel apart though is the incredible hospitality by each member of this family team. We were blown away by their kindness and authenticity and would stay here again in a heartbeat. (Be sure to try the cake at breakfast!)

Finding this hotel was truly kismet!

Finding this hotel was truly kismet. From the hotel to the town, everything was phenomenal! It was a beautiful, family run hotel, and I felt welcomed from the moment I entered. Breakfast was prepared fresh each morning from fruits and vegetables from Mr. Faruk’s garden. The jams were also homemade and delicious! The hotel staff was great and helped me to fill my trip with activities I was interested in that have become memorable experiences I will treasure. During my stay I was traveling alone and the hotel staff introduced me to many of the guests and helped foster communication. Coffee and tea was always offered with a smile to all guests conversing throughout the hotel. The terrace area was beautiful and offered views of the hot air balloons, while the lobby was perfectly designed to gather guests in a comfortable sitting area. Mr. Faruk and his sons offered many suggestions of places to go and things to see while helping you thoroughly plan each experience and set up tours for you. This hotel was truly a family run business, and it was evident my entire 5 day stay that they take pride in offering guests the best experience possible. I will definitely be back, next time with family and friends!

We enjoyed our time at Kismet Cave House and would stay again in the future. However, our rooms window was off a side road which turned out to be fairly noisy. So not the greatest rest. The highlight was the terrace used at breakfast.

Great house, wonderful breakfast (tasty, varied, abundant, all you can eat buffet style, with a cook that makes omelette and Turkish pancakes on order), accommodating staff, perfect location. Highly recommended. The taste is impeccable. It is a pleasure to see such wonderful rooms. Very comfy beds, strong showers. Helpful staff can help you with activity bookings, maps and recommendations. Location is perfect, in a quiet neighborhood but one block from everything: bus station, restaurants, bazaars, Open air Museum.

Friendly, family run and offers a taste of the local village life. However I was a bit let down by the general upkeep - carpets had accumulated too much grime and my toilet had quite a bad smell throughout the stay. However the staff is just great and the owner goes out of his way to make you feel welcome.

The charm of this family run hotel is the family itself. It is not fancy but has old world charm and warmth, both in the carpets and antiquity strewn about, and through its owners who really make an effort to connect and make sure you have the best possible stay. Goreme has grown exponentially over the years. To get a sense of its soul, I feel you need to connect with the people and spend some time in nature away from the maddening crowd!
