We stayed in this hotel for a night and it was a great experience. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We were picked up at the bus stop even though it's a five minute walk to the hotel. The room was basically a cave. It was clean and warm. The restroom was big and had hot water. It was... More

Ali and his brothers (new management, can't remember their names...) were the most friendly and helpful people i̇'ve met during my stay in Turkey. As soon as I checked in, Ali gave me the best offers on tours around Göreme region, restaurant and even a very nice hamam to relax with discounts. I've spent 2 nights in Elif Star Caves... More

Stayed in October, on third floor. We loved our 2-bed room. Every part of the hotel (except the flies in the breakfast room) was utterly charming. Great location, with wonderful walks up into the hills (and into a hidden church) across the street, and balloons overhead every morning. They sent us to our favorite rooftop restaurant in Goreme -- the... More

Elif Star Caves is under new management and is still a warm friendly place to stay. The new managers are very friendly and accesssible. The rooms are comfortable and the view excellent. The hot water system could do with some improvement. More

Friendly staff, great location, and big rooms...caves, I mean. And the made to order breakfast is just cherry on top. Our hosts gave us all the information that we needed for our stay in Goreme; great tips on which tours to take; and generally helpful with any questions that we had. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the blankets were... More

We stayed here in February/March 2008. We moved herefrom the Flintstones (disastrously cold and dirty rooms). The owners were so accommodating. Our room was beautiful. It was a real cave unlike in Flintstones. We had an electric blanket in the extremly comfortable bed. The room had lots of niches cut into the wall with candles placed into them and a... More

Mustafa was a great host, very friendly and helpful, providing lots of information on the sights, a nicely drawn map with hiking routes, and dining options. I really enjoyed my stay in Goreme, especially at Elifstar Caves. The breakfast, as many other reviewers have noted, is delicious, with a range of options one can choose from. The view from the...

My friends, my mom and I were absolutely charmed by the region and the pension, but especially by its owner Mustafa! As most reviews already mention, he has been of great help in the organization of our daily activities, made excellent recommendations for restaurants, and was almost always available for a chat. It is the kind of places where Id... More
