Kayakapi Premium Cave Suites

Kayakapi Premium Cave Suites

Occupying a beautifully restored historic hillside neighbourhood in the heart of Urgup, Kayakapi Premium Caves is unlike any other luxury hotel in Cappadocia. Rather than simply offering cave rooms, this remarkable property has painstakingly transformed centuries-old cave dwellings and elegant stone mansions into one of Turkey’s most extraordinary boutique hotels. The restoration has been as much about preserving Cappadocia’s rich architectural heritage as creating an exceptional place to stay, allowing guests to experience the region’s history in a way few hotels can offer. Ancient cobbled lanes, peaceful courtyards and breathtaking valley views combine to create an atmosphere that feels both deeply authentic and effortlessly luxurious.

Beautifully positioned above the historic town of Urgup, the hotel enjoys sweeping views across Cappadocia’s remarkable landscape whilst remaining within easy walking distance of the town’s restaurants, cafés, boutiques and the renowned Turasan Winery, one of Turkey’s oldest and most respected wine producers. Nevsehir Kapadokya Airport is approximately 50 minutes away, whilst Kayseri Airport can be reached in around 75 minutes, making Kayakapi Premium Caves an exceptionally convenient base from which to explore one of Turkey’s most captivating regions, from the fairy chimneys of Pasabag and the Goreme Open-Air Museum to the underground cities of Derinkuyu and Kaymakli.

Accommodation is thoughtfully woven throughout the restored village, with just 44 individually designed rooms, suites and private mansions arranged across nine distinctive categories. No two are exactly alike. Authentic cave interiors, exposed volcanic stone, hand-crafted timber, vaulted ceilings and original architectural details have been carefully preserved, whilst contemporary comforts ensure an exceptionally comfortable stay. Many suites feature private terraces, traditional Turkish hammams, fireplaces, generous living areas and heated indoor or outdoor pools, creating a collection of accommodation that is as individual as the village itself.

Dining is one of Kayakapi’s defining experiences. Revithia Restaurant has been awarded one Michelin Star, celebrating refined Anatolian cuisine crafted from exceptional regional produce and centuries-old culinary traditions. More relaxed dining is available throughout the day at Maide Restaurant, where guests begin each morning with an abundant Turkish breakfast before enjoying seasonal specialities overlooking the valleys beyond. Operating on a bed and breakfast basis, Kayakapi also gives guests the freedom to discover Urgup’s excellent collection of restaurants, wine bars and cafés throughout the day and evening, all just a short stroll from the hotel.

Wellbeing forms an important part of the Kayakapi experience. Guests can unwind beside the heated outdoor swimming pool, enjoy the traditional Turkish hammam, sauna and fitness centre, or indulge in a restorative spa treatment after a day spent exploring Cappadocia’s extraordinary landscapes. Complimentary golf cart transfers throughout the historic village make navigating the hillside wonderfully effortless, allowing every corner of the property to be enjoyed with ease.

Although particularly popular with couples celebrating special occasions, Kayakapi Premium Caves is equally welcoming to families. Its larger suites and beautifully restored private mansions provide generous accommodation for those travelling together, whilst the fascinating history of the restored village creates an experience that appeals across generations. Every stay feels personal, intimate and entirely unique.

Few hotels tell the story of Cappadocia quite like Kayakapi Premium Caves. More than simply a luxury cave hotel, it offers the rare opportunity to stay within a beautifully restored historic village where centuries-old homes, Michelin-starred dining and thoughtful hospitality combine to create one of the region’s most remarkable places to stay. For travellers seeking an authentic boutique hotel in Cappadocia, where heritage, luxury and a genuine sense of place come together seamlessly, Kayakapi Premium Caves stands comfortably in a class of its own.
