Majestic Sky and Cappadocia Wonders View
Ufuk Pension has been my go to Cappadocia stay for more than 25 years. The view is magnificent and the location is central. The breakfast is delicious with so many choices to try. The staff go above and beyond all expectations to help guests with tours and local travel tips. The wonders of Cappadocia await at Ufuk ( Horizon) Pension.

Old, dirty and dodgy with stunning view. The staff really unprofessional, I booked one double room with breakfast included, at check in the host informed us that there will be no breakfast, he said he tried to delete that option from Expedia but he can't undo it. So... Robbery. Cheap robbery. Travelling in Turkey for 3 weeks already and it's the first time when I pay for such a dirty stable. Horrible. Avoid!

First arrived early in the morning at 8 am and had to stay till 11:30 because the check in time was 2 pm and no room was available! So visitors regardless to their flight or bus arrival time will have to wait till 2 pm. Then i was offered a garden room which is a part of a cave was cool and in a nice condition, however the water was always cut off! For a family its horrible! The internet doesnt work inside the room and have to go out stay at the dark garden where the lighs are completely switched off at 10:30 or 11..

dear guest , thank you for your review about our hotel which you experienced, you must wait check in time if the room is not available for early check in , this is same all hotels , if you want check in when you come in morning you book the previus night , you booked a cave room , we give family cave suit room for you , so we did not add extra bed for your to a double cave room , there is water problem in göreme every end of july and first week of august , dear next guests if you need to use wifi in your room you should book a standart room not a cave room , we can not keep lights on all night , becuse we are an economic hotel ,after 11 pm we turn off , we hope you read hotel policies before you book and respect it regards

For summer stay and on-the-cheap stays only.
It turns out, as the manager explained on the 2nd day, this little pension is for summer overflow; it isn't really equipped to handle winter guests. That was great to know after we were already there! The first night, our room smelled like sewage and we had very little heat (in -0C weather), while our friend in a single room had no heat at all. Yes, there was hot water. Skimpy breakfast. Otherwise, pleasant hosts and pet friendly.

Fantastic!!!!
Orhan is the perfect host and treated us like a 5 star guest all the wa through. Our room was full when we arrived so he upgraded us for free. He gave us all the information we needed to book our hot air balloon ride and a tour if we had time. He gave us options, then left us to discuss (perfectly informative and no too pushy). We booked the cave room which was perfect for us, just coming from a hostel in Istanbul. The hotel is a 5 min walk from the bus station, right in the middle of everything. we had shuttles for the airport and the balloon ride. Orhan booked everything for us happily and helped us every step of the way. It could not have been more seamless. I will definitely recommend him to anyone that comes here. The bed is a little hard, but not too uncomfortable. The walls are thick enough that we really thought we were the only ones there. The shower was amazing with very hot water and a lot of pressure.

Great Hotel for Short stay
This hotel was perfect for what we needed (one nights accommodation). Room was simple but had all necessities. Staff were welcoming and friendly. We were able to leave our stuff their as weren't leaving until later. Also we were allowed a shower prior to leaving for a small fee which was great as we had an overnight bus.

Nice, friendly, cheap hotel on the edge of town.
Ufuk was a reasonably priced hotel just on the edge of town. It is about the closest to the outdoor museum and the nearby trails (about 1 km), and still convenient to town. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good, rooms were fairly small but fine for what we needed and paid. A good place to stay in Cappadocia.

Homely, Rustic Ufuk
Ufuk Pension is very representative of the Goreme area. Tourism is the lifeblood of this area, and Ufuk does a good job of rising up to the challenge, which is indeed huge for the area. Ufuk provided a warm and homely welcome on arrival after a whole day travelling into Turkey with stops at Istanbul and Kayseri. And after an entire day touring the stunning natural wonders of the Cappadocia landscape, Ufuk was a reminder of the constant warmth provided by the archetypal cave-like dwelling hewn out of and nestled within the landscape, providing the same comfortable atmosphere regardless of the outside weather conditions, rain or shine. Its right off the Goreme road junction so provides accessibility, especially if you want to take a nice stroll around to see the sights of the centre of town. All this and more for a very affordable, truly charming, Turkish experience.

Value for money in paradise
Ufuk is a basic pension which is ideally located near the town. Everything is spotless although linen is rather 'tired. Our room had a great view and was airy and quiet. The staff were outstanding and went out of their way to accommodate the needs of their very varied group of guests.

Excellent services
I must praise Ufuk's staff for their quality services. They are extremely friendly and polite people who tried to make sure our stay in Cappadocia is satisfactory. We drove a car there and although their parking space is limited, and they proactively came out to help our parking. Situated up a slope near the Goreme city centre round-about, a driver may easily miss it at the time of arrival but then the location is great once you found it. Love the breakfast which is served with great variety of food in a very cozy garden. Room was a bit old and dim but is acceptable for budget travelers like us.

Very friendly staff, great breakfast!. I think it is perfect if you are planning to just go back to your room to sleep, there was no TV or radio. It worked for us becuase we just needed it a place to rest at night after walking all day.

Wondeful hotel
This hotel is wonderful! The owners are great people who made us feel right at home. They suggested us great restaurants, and the apple tea at breakfast is great! The price is very good, the hotel is located in Goreme, so close to the open air museum (we walked there) and to all restaurants and shops in the area. I had a cave room, it was very caratteristic and confortable, and the breakfast was continental with eggs, meat, veggies, marmalade and honey. I would go back anytime and I suggest it to everyone!!!

Great for the $$
The staff is very friendly and helpful, especially Fate (sp?). He gave us directions to must see places and set up a shuttle to and from the hotel and airport (a must because the airports are far). The cave experience is like camping; sorry posh people! But for the rest of us who can rough it out a little, save your money and stay at the Ufuk.

가성비 굳! 친절한 주인과 시내와의 접근성 좋음
아름다운 카파도키아의 중심에 있는 펜션이라서 주변이 아름답다. 세면대에도 따듯한 물이 나오고 찬물도 더 잘 나왔다면 더 좋았을 것같다. 샤워기 물은 좀 틀어 놓고 기다리면 온수도 잘 나온다. 첫날은 라이에터가 따듯했지만 이틀째부터는 밤새 작동하지 않았으나 친절하게 따로 챙겨준 석영전기난로가 있어서 괜찮았다. 주인은 정말 친절한 사람이다.

Super !
My stay at ufuk pension was great! The location is just amazing. A little bit out of the hyper center so more quiet. But close to everything by walk. There are 2 super terrasse.(1 terrasse, 1 rooftop) the view from the rooftop is just amazing. On the red valley. Orhan the owner, is really helpful and nice. Answering you for any questions and giving you good tips. Normally i reserved 2 nights by ufuk pension. And i extend it 2 more nights. Orhan let me the same room. So i appreciate a lot. If you're looking for a good welcoming and cheap place in goreme. Go to ufuk pension!
