I think in Goreme you can find much better hostel than this one.....All of guests were asian and the owners also and they were very unfriendly.....

They work with companies to provide cheaper tours/bus tickets/services. They also run one tour (red circle), which is worth going on. The place is definitely worth visiting as it is a very unusual geographical location… There was just one small problem. Bedbugs destroyed me completely... over 100 bites. The next day however, I was moved to their other hotel. I just wished them luck purging the bugs.close

Although staff friendly and did pick me up from bus stop at 7 in the morning, was slightly disappointed with atmosphere. Beds were crowded together in rooms and the door had no lock, you just had to pull a wire to open.

We really liked this hostel and the staff, however we had a VERY small room. I mean, we understand that we're staying in a cave, but when the door is closed, there is hardly room to set down your bag aside from placing it on the bed where you want to sleep.close

A sound hostel, good breakfest, and pleasent pattio to eat it on. the beds were a little uncomfortable, but other than that the room (a 5 person dorm) was nice, and the staff was helpful in booking a tour and a hammam.

Nice place and nice room, but duvet / blanket smelt a bit, and could do wıth a clean. The people are great and so are the breakfasts. I also recommend booking the Cappadocia tours (only 50 Turkısh Lıra per person per day) ın Goreme, rather than in Istanbul whıch is more expensıve.

without doubt, the best place we stayed at in turkey. the muesli breakfast was great - a welcome change from the ubiquitous turkish breakfast. the cave room was fantastic and the rooftop area had great views. showers were good and hot too. thanks

We found Traveller's Cave to be more 'rustic' than we'd expected. The common rooms were very smokey, especially at meal times - which we found a little uncomfortable. The rooms were quite cold, once we mentioned it to the staff, we were gıven an additional heater which was adequate.

The cave rooms are very atmospheric & the staff are brilliant. You can organise any trips or tours through the hostel & they helped us to get bus times to Bogazkale, which is a little off the tourist route so was causing us some grief. As we had to leave early in the morning, the staff asked us to knock on their door when we were ready to go so they could run us down to the otogar. The staff really make this a place worth staying!close
