MDC Cave Hotel Cappadocia is a five-star property in the Karagandere district of Ürgüp, and it is one of the better choices in the region for travellers who want resort-style facilities in a cave setting. It has an outdoor swimming pool with a separate children's pool and a poolside bar, a spa offering treatments, a restaurant, a terrace and a garden, plus free parking and free Wi-Fi. The suites are generous: a Classic Cave Suite of around 484 square feet that sleeps three, a Luxury Cave Suite of around 646 square feet, a Premium King Cave Suite of around 861 square feet that sleeps four, and luxury and premium suites of about 969 square feet that have their own Turkish bath. The hotel has a daily breakfast buffet, which is charged separately per person rather than included in the room rate, so check the cost when you compare prices. Dogs and cats are allowed with limits in specific rooms, and an airport shuttle is available on request for a fee. Check-in is from two in the afternoon and check-out is before noon. The pool is a major draw in summer, and a private Turkish bath in the room makes a winter stay feel special.
Location
The hotel is in Ürgüp, on the side of the region closer to the airport road, and the page describes it as a short walk from the Göreme National Park area. Ürgüp has a livelier town centre than most villages in Cappadocia, with restaurants, shops and a wine scene, while Göreme and the balloon fields are a short drive away. It is a good base for those who plan to rent a car or take taxis, and less convenient for guests who want to walk everywhere.
Rooms and who it suits
The suites are spacious and sleep three or four, making them well suited to families and small groups, and the suites with a private Turkish bath suit couples on special trips. The pool and children's pool make it a good choice for families in warm months, though pool use may be seasonal, so confirm access in November. It is more expensive than the village guesthouses, and it is for those who want space, spa services and a pool rather than a small boutique feel.
Good to know
Because breakfast is a separate charge, compare the full price including breakfast when you choose between hotels, and consider eating in the town if you prefer. The spa offers massages and other treatments, which are worth booking in advance. Pets are only allowed in specific rooms, so ask when you book. As with all cave suites, expect steps and uneven floors, and ask for a ground-level room if mobility is an issue. Free cancellation applies on selected rates only.
