Nothing was more relaxing than coming back to this relaxing pool side after a blastering hot hike through the rugged terrain of Cappadocia. Every time I opened my book to read I realized my eyes would slowly drift from the pages to take in the beautiful view and I could not help but to relax into a light slumber.

Seten Anatolian Cuisine

It’s apart of the Sultan Cave Suites hotel and it was so delicious that we ate dinner there every single night! Normally I am one to grow tired of the same food and place after a visit or two but this place I could not get enough of. The staff was so kind, the atmosphere was was pristine, and your options.. endless.

We dined outside every evening, taking advantage of the cool air and the pastel sky as the sun began to set. Each night I would look at the menu giddily trying to decide what I would try next from this unique and varied menu. Between the three of us we must have tried almost every course, and if I may add every single one was exquisite. The night before we left I decided to try the baklava and how I wish that I had only tried it sooner. To conclude our meal we’d always finish with a hot apple tea before heading up to the terrace to enjoy the night view of Cappadocia.

This cozy cave was home during our 5 day visit in Cappadocia Turkey. Our beautiful hotel-Sultan Cave Suites- is nestled up high between the rock fairy chimneys which use to house persecuted christians who carved rooms inside to hide from the Romans. Today it offers a spectacular panoramic view and a truly unique lodging experience.

During the day, temperatures hung around 90 but tucked away in the rock our room maintained a cool 65 degrees. It was absolutely perfect from decor to comfort. And if you woke up early enough you would see hot air balloons floating right above your roof.

The hotel is much more than a stellar room, it also offers a pool with a view, a hammam, one of the bet restaurants in town, countless terraces, and let me not forget the kindest staff imaginable which I will all get to in future posts no worries!
