Cave Suite

The big pottery you see in the cave hole on the right side of the room is from 2nd century. It was at one time buried next to the Roman Kings to hide their jewelry and burry it with them. The only dramatic change to this room was made when the bathroom was added to the end of the room. All the details such as the cave holes you see are original. The bathroom consists of a high quality anti bacterial travertine stone shower, floors and a modern Jacuzzi. Your bedding is all handmade with the finest cotton. The trimming of the bed spread is the Ottoman design.


Standard Double Room

They are volcanic tuff and Ottoman style stone or arched rooms. The arched ceilings characteristic of traditional Cappadocia houses, wooden furniture and embroidered bedspreads provide the most comfortable option for those who wish to be in private with nature and serenity.

Double rooms comfort you either in cave style or cut stones.


Byzantine King Suite

As you enter this room you will see a very large round stone also known as "Key Stone Door" in the shape of millstone, which at one time was used as a safety door. Your bedding is all handmade with the finest cotton.

The bathroom is designed with a special high quality anti bacterial  onyx shower. This bathroom also has a ottoman style heated stone bath area which is also called the Turkish Bath.

The floors in your room and bathroom are all heated flooring


Roman King Suite

 At one time there was a Roman pool in the back of this room. We turned this area to the luxurious bathroom you see today with the best quality. The bathroom consists of a high quality anti bacterial travertine stone shower and mosaic tiled Roman style bathroom. The furniture in your room is all custom hand made with special wood designed in the Ottoman style. Your bedding is all handmade with the finest cotton.

The name Cappadocia is thought to mean ‘land of beautiful horses’ and in Roman times the brood mares from Cappadocia were very highly prized indeed.

The region of Cappadocia is visually stunning; its haunting landscape is best seen from the air. We highly recommend you take a hot air balloon ride during your stay; it is the most popular way to enjoy the amazing scenery. Eerily resembling a moonscape, soft volcanic rock has sculpted caves, clefts and the magical ‘fairy chimneys’.

Cappadocia is known around the world as one of the best places to fly with hot-air balloons. The spectacular surrealistic landscape, combined with excellent flying conditions, allows the balloons to gently drift over and between fairy chimneys and pigeon houses hewn from the unique rock formations, through beautiful orchards and vineyards and impressive valleys with distinctive rock formations and features – and then float up over rippled ravines for breath-taking views across the region.

Reviews

The MDC Cave hotel in Cappadocia was truly amazing. For some reason we were upgraded to a King size suite which we weren't going to complain about as the room was spectacular. Despite also some confusion over the balloon trip when we first arrived this was delayed for a day but we got to go on it and will never forget the experience. The daily excursions too were just out of this world and made all the more special by our guide. I would like to say though, the MDC Cave hotel has the most shambolic food ordering system I'm afraid which most people complained about. Ordering your food on a app doesn't work at all so I wouldn't recommend that part to anyone.  Andrew and June Welch - 24 Oct 2022
