Dervish Cave House & Restaurant

We really enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend this accommodation. The atmosphere was lovely, and we had a very pleasant experience overall.

A few minor improvements would help: the shower surfaces need more attention, particularly limescale removal, and the TV was not working during our stay. Please also note that reception charges a 10% surcharge for card payments, unlike other places we visited in Göreme, where card payments were generally accepted without an additional fee.

Staying in a cave made for a mystical feeling.

The location of my room was a little noisy at times.

We had a really nice stay at Dervish. The staff were all nice. Mehmet at the reception was very friendly & accommodating. We arrived early & they were able to let us check in earlier & furthermore, a free room upgrade, our lucky day. Dervish is in a very nice location, uphill but only a few steps to the flat main road to the centre. It is very near to the Sunset/Sunrise Viewpoint to see the balloons. They have a rooftop bar where you can listen to music & have some drinks/food while overlooking Goreme. There are many restaurants within a few steps but they have restaurants in the property too. Breakfast had a good spread to choose from. Our room was very clean & bed was comfortable, with airconditioning. If you’re renting a car, you’re allowed to park infront of the property. We are very happy with Dervish. We highly recommend!

It looks like an awesome place

Due to threats to a nearby American base, and orders by the US State Department for people in that office to evacuate, we did not feel comfortable traveling to this area. Though we cancelled weeks in advance we were not able to get even a partial refund. The no refund policy seems extreme and would make me avoid venues that have no refunds at all.
