I’m only rating low because the bathroom situation is bad. They need to be cleaned more than once a day as they were constantly dirty. There are only two toilets which have the showers connected so you are often waiting for the toilet. For the price of this hostel I expected the bathroom situation to be better and cleaner. Other than that it was a nice stay and fun to stay in a cave

Cool hostel, friendly staff, improvements needed

The cave room is really cool, spacious and quiet. The staff guys are so friendly, I liked them a lot. The place was as clean as possible taking in count the large mass of people coming and going. There are quite some improvements that would be welcomed, but that's up to the manager to pursue such as: Bathroom ceiling is very moldy Shower in one of the two bath cabins didn't work properly, leaked on the hose. Trash should be taken out more often as it would fill really quick with so many people present. Some large, like humongous bold letters signs should be put in the bathrooms for guests to clean after themselves, as some are definitely not as considerate as others. Overall I had a nice enough experience, and slept really well. The pros of this place are definitely price and proximity to centrum and view points.

The hostel was excellent! Wonderful friendly staff, beautiful views on the terrace, and great recommendations around Cappadocia. I would stay here again 👍

Nice place, cheapest shared room is quite big, so there will always be someone up to something but, apart from that, everything was just perfect, thanks for the breakfast!

Helpful, friendly best breakfast 3 plates, 1 regular salad cheese,1 hot different every day,1 fruit or cake. Roof top viewing of balloons. Stayed 4 nights. Plenty of hot water.

Wonderful staff

Amazing staff! Excellent breakfast and nice price. I made a few friends staying in the common room. Did I say that they have amazing personnel?

The hostel was great and cozy, the hosts were all so friendly and accommodating. Cute rooftop with a great breakfast.

Everything was good and the stay was pleasant, food was excellent people friendly and helpful.

Fantastic stay

Staff here are amazing. Very friendly and make your stay comfortable. Very easy to meet other travellers here.

Excellent hostel/hotel with great free breakfast

Perfect location one block from the bus station and the main street. I was so impressed from the minute I entered how clean the hostel was. I stayed in a dorm room and the sheets and duvet crisp white and very comfortable. The free breakfast was extensive and a great value that included 2 courses of food. I can't wait to return to stay again. Extremely friendly staff.

Typical hostel with friendly but distracted staff. Mostly clean but kitchen was filthy. Comfy and quiet except for every door squeaking. Is it really that hard to oil the hinges? Cheap but still overpriced since Göreme is an absolute dump. I'd avoid the whole town.

The customer service was the best I've had in any hotel! Volcan went above and beyond the call of duty in helping us many times, and he does so with all his guests. You can tell he really cares. His English is excellent too. You'll love staying here.

Volkan very welcoming and orhan wealth of gd ideas for my stay form room magical experience Iam now a trogadyty..,gd tip GeT up 5am go to too roof area watch balloons floating in the goreme valley below..the hostel was a Turkish delight for me..wild RTN for longer stay..as many others were..thx your also to kitchen staff awesome daily breakfast

Very clean room snd the personal was very helpful and attending all the details. The location of the place is near the main street.

Best Place in Cappadocia!

Kamelya Hostel is an amazing place to stay in Cappadocia. They are located a short 3 minute walk from the bus station and city center. Their rooms are super affordable, nice, and cozy (I opted for the private room and private bathroom), and most importantly, the owners Volkan and Ahmet and staff are all kind, friendly, and make you feel like family.  The complimentary breakfast was delicious with eggs, meat, veggies, fruits, bread, etc. They also have the most affordable and best shisha/hookah in town! ***Balloon Tours etc. I highly recommend booking all tours and balloon rides through Kamelya hostel when you arrive. They have the best rates and they know the best companies so that you don't get ripped off.

老板这里很好也很帮忙。 还有

Nice hostel

5min walk to the bus station, very convenient for travellers. The dormitory room is nice and the dinning area has a city view. The only drawback is a shower/toilet room - some equipment is broken, didn't look very clean. But overall I like the staying here.

Far exceeded my expectations. The place is so conveniently located at a stone's throw from the bus stop right at the centre of Goreme. The breakfast was amazing. The staff particularly Alex is superb. Also, anyone planning to stay here, I would recommend to book all your tours from the hostel at cheaper rates. I booked my balloon ride before arriving at a pricier rate. This place is the ultimate value for money one can ask for.

It felt like I was staying with family. Love this place!

Nicest staff ever

Great location, delicious traditional breakfast, amazing staff!, amazing experience!! Absolutely recommended!

The price is great, it's very clean and have a very good localization. Recommend!

Great place to stay at. The staff is extremely nice and hang out with the guests and talk with them. When I arrived I was expecting the person on the reception to just quickly check me in but he talked to me for a short while, asking how my trip was, my plans etc. The breakfasts were amazing. It wasn't like a normal buffet. Every breakfast had the usual bread, jam, butter cheese but along with that they also had a freshly cooked dish. During my stay that dish included omelette, shashuka and fried eggs. They also had an add-on dish to accompany the main breakfast such as a kitchen made cake, patties, fruits, yogurt dessert with fruits etc. The staff were very helpful in renting a car, and booking other activities. Also met many other people at the hostel and had a great time with them. One of the guests took us all on a hike through pigeon valley and to Uchisar Castle.

Everything was amazing, the beds are comfortable, breakfast was very good, the personal service was excellent, Volcan the manager everytime happy and available to help in everything.

Great staff, comfortable beds in a cool and beautiful cave. Incredible breakfast. Beautiful view from the terrace. Will come back!!!

Place was as described, would definitely recommend

SUPER KONUM,MISAFIRPERVER,TEMIZ

Tek basima bir gezginim, bir cok hostelde konakladim fakat kamelya bir baskaydi, goremenin tam merkezinde heryere yurume mesafinde, super bir terasi ve manzarasi var 7 24 ucretsiz cay ve kahve ile manzaranin tadini cikarabildim, calisanlar cok ilgili, kahvaltusu muthis, hergun farkli bir kahvalti sunuyorlar, kesinlikle ziyaret etmelisiniz bu deneyimi yasatan kamelya ekibine sonsuz tesekkurler.

宾至如归。

很棒的景色。 不错的旅馆，有地下洞穴宿舍。友好的工作人员，美味的土耳其早餐。晚上安静。

Ótima equipe amigável do albergue

Novo albergue realmente agradável com excelente vista. WIFI rápido, bom café da manhã, ótimo dormitório caverna

Лучший хостел в Гёреме

Отличный вид, отличная еда, отличная зона отдыха на крыше (люди действительно заходили и просили подняться, чтобы посмотреть вид) Супер дружелюбный владелец. Отличный WIFI. Хорошие общежития в пещере и отдельные комнаты наверху

GREAT HOSTEL with AMAZING VIEW!

This new hostel is superb. Owner is super friendly and helpful. Has cave dorms for mixed and women only. WIFI is SUPER FAST. Breakfast is very good and the new rooftop chillout area is ideal to, well, chill. BOOK HERE! You won't regret it! Look at the pic I took of the view!

Excellent value, service, and quality

What can I say. The service, value, and quality of this establishment left me speechless. Vulcan checked me in and was extremely welcoming and informative. The breakfast rivaled those I've had at 5 star hotels and the rest of the staff were great. You could also get amazing views from the rooftop. I liked it so much here I decided to extend my stay

Breakfast was really nice, bed is comfy and duvet is soft. Unique cave room. Good value for price.

Worths staying there

Simple but very nice breakfast (in some hostels I have been to it was just impossible to eat anything). The staff was kind and near the main road..

Best breakfast. Most friendly owner who schedules the cheapest tours. If you are on a budget, this is absolutely the place to stay. Bathrooms are a bit tiny and not in the best shape.

super

good staff.always keep in touch with best reply on whats app. i booked for my friend.but response was really best and sweet

Awesome

It was one of the best hostel I have ever been. I am lucky that I decided to stay here.

Perfect

Very friendly staff ! Everything was perfect :)

Bad service

They not allow you wait for the bus in the hostel after you check out even it is snow, they need you wait outside.

I liked the staff very much. They were very friendly and of course the breakfast was good and the price of this property is very reasonable. I really love to come back soon.

Gem in Goreme

Absolutely loved my stay at Kamelya Cave Hostel. The owners and staff were amazing - so welcoming and provided great recommendations for tours and hiking trails. So far I have stayed in five different accommodations in Turkey, all which included breakfast and Kamelya had the best breakfast by far! There is a beautiful terrace to hang out on in the evening and enjoy the company of other travelers and views of the town. I was sad when I had to leave! Definitely recommend staying here if you are in Goreme, it’s a great value and the owners and staff will make you feel like family!

Love the people here!

Very friendly people and great breakfast! It is located very close to the bus terminal, shops and restaurants. Thank you, Selcuk, Denis, Ahmet and a happy guy and quiet guy in the kitchen! They are all fantastic!

Staff were easy to talk to and helpful. They let my hang around when I had to wait for some bus. The breakfasts were excellent.

Had a great time)

I had a great time at Kamelya Hostel) i stayed in a private room with my sister. Room is awesome clean and light)) Breakfast was soo tasty. The location is great near bus stop through Capoadoccia cities and also to the longer destionations, by close i mean less then 5 min. Less then 15 min from hostel there is one of the sunset view points. I totally will come again and i recommend it to all my friends.

Really could not ask for a friendlier cheaper and cleaner hostel. Genuinely one of the most welcoming and friendly hostel I've ever been to! Don't miss the chance to sleep in a cave hostel and enjoy the amazing breakfast.

Cheap and Cozy

Breakfast and cave dormitory is very good. Staff is very friendly. Toilets and shower is not good. It can be improve. Location is perfect.

Great!

Cosy hostel on a very good location. Delicious breakfast. I would recommend.

Staff make this place a home

I booked this hotel because as a solo traveller I was looking for somewhere safe and welcoming and the staff did not disappoint! They work tirelessly to ensure all their guests feel welcome and comfortable and offer excellent value for money. I stayed in the dorm and the cave setting is beautiful and the bed and bedding the best I have had in a hostel. The bathroom has many showers so I never had to wait. The staff at the hotel booked some excellent tours and gave honest advice about the area and provided me with great company and true Turkish hospitality. Thank you!

10/10!

I initially booked three nights here but ended up starting for six! All the staff are so friendly and helpful and its a lovely feeling to be greeted by name. Denez makes the most AMAZING breakfasts!! Best breakfast in Turkey and not once did I have the same breakfast when I stayed. It was a great experience staying in a cave and I love that it is naturally cool inside. The beds are super comfy and they provide lockers free of charge. Everyone I met at the hostel were also super happy with their stay!

A service and hotel that you guys never forget!

It was a great experience staying at the hotel. The staffs are awesome and the room is clean. As we are travelling during fasting month, Ahmet and Selcuk even help us for the sahoor to replace our breakfast. The owner Dennis also is very helpful. We even get check in a bit early than we should as there are room for us. FYI, the staff will provide you with sufficient information about the attraction all around Cappadocia. If you going to stay therw, you will see the Trip Advisor Excellent award at their entrance. We are very delight with their service. 24/7 ready to serve you guys. Big applause for them!

Excellent choice

Super friendly staff, excellent breakfast (included in the price) very good value of money. Excellent choice for anyone visiting Cappadocia.

Great place

Nice place, the staff is very friendly and helpful, breakfast was great as well

Great Stay. Definitely recommend

My experience and Kamelya Cave Hostel was great. They had available rooms the day I was arriving and for very cheap. I was skeptical at first but can only said good things. For a cheap price I stayed at a great hostel with a nice staff, cool locale in a cave, and free included breakfast. The wifi was also good. The bathrooms had water on the floor outside the showers (which included soaps). Rental towels for 5 TL. The hostel is also in a perfect location. Great experience overall and would recommend any traveler coming to cappadoccia to stay here.

Bir gece iki günlük bir tek başına tatil için gayet yeterli bir ortamdı benim için. Sanki üniversite yurdumda gibiydim hatta, sanırım Türkiyeli tek turist bendim, ki bu benim için hem dışardan yeni insanlar tanımak demek hem de İngilizce'ye maruz kalmak demekti. Bundan dolayı şanslı hissettim kendimi, gelir gelmez ücretsiz bir tura katıldım, saatler sürdü ama çok iyiydi. Temizlik açısından da iyiydi, ortak tuvalet banyo olmasına rağmen bayağı temizdi. Bu benim için yeterli.

저렴한 가격과 좋은 아침 식사 일하시는 분들은 모두 친절합니다.

Nur paar Minuten zum Busbahnhof und in den Nationalpark. Sehr gutes Frühstück...auf der Dachterrasse mit Ausblick auf die Felsen.

I stayed dormitory and slept on the top of bunk bed. But, a lot of sand felt on my bed. I was a little unpleasant. However, staff was so kind and breakfast was pretty good!

Higly recommend. Amazing place. Cool people. Shoutout to Erdan the walking tour guide who walked us around for free

Nous avons adoré séjourner dans cet hôtel! Le personnel est plus que génial! Accueillant, adorable et tjs prêt à aider! Le petit dej est vraiment très bon! L’emplacement est idéal! Les chambres sont très bien! L’eau de la douche est chaude! C’est propre et la cerise sur le gâteau c’est le chien Hector, un amour de cocker! Nous reviendrons c’est certain! Merdan, Vulcan, Orhan et Sofia (Ashkim) nous ne vous oublierons jamais! Merci pour ce séjour! Nous nous sommes senti comme à la maison et en famille!

Ambiente super agradável, equipe solicita e gentile, o café da manhã é muito bom também. Voltaria!

Not recommend

Room was dirty and dusty, toilet was very small and mouldy, definitely much much less than 25 sq m, actual might be around 13 sq m., only breakfast was ok, overall not recommend.

High-end service at Kamelya Cave Hostel

Very friendly and knowledgeable Manager, who reached out by email in advance to suggest tours and activities that we could participate in during our stay. Breakfast on the roof-top, watching the hot air balloons, was delicious and filling. I would highly recommend the Kamelya Cave Hostel for singles, couples or family groups. Very convenient to the main street, restaurants and shops.

Cok soguk

Personel güler yüzlü fakat odalar ısıtıcı olmasına ragmen camlardan cok soguk alıyordu sabaha kadar soguk dan uyuyamadık.

L'emplacement est excellent mais l'un des employés de l'hostel est raciste

Beni çok samimi ve iyi karşıladılar .Ayrıca kahvaltısı çok iyidi.Safiş hanım ve Volkan beye ayrıca teşekkür ederim :)

Don't hesitate! Just make reservation!

Best hostel I've stayed during 40 days trip in Türkiye. Location: Really close to Otogar. Just 3 mins on foot! There's a lot of restaurants and markets near hostel. Service: Room was super clear. They serve high quality breakfast everyday with no charge. Çay is also free 24/7! Enjoy tea in terrace with your friend! And all managers are friendly. Owner Walter was super nice guy. He helped me booking balloon, Green, ATV tours. It was even cheaper than Viator! Even my captain of balloon wasn't freshman! The chef in here was also awesome. He always cleans rooftop restaurant and serves you nice breakfast. Bathroom: Some reviews complaining about dirty shower booth or some smells. It's completely wrong. All shower booth and toilets are re-modeled and well-cleaned. I couldn't feel any bad things during 4 days. Plus, dogs named Hector and Turbo were super cute. You must see them!😆

Good! Good!

호스텔 직원 및 투숙객들과 친해져서 15일을 머물렀습니다. 직원들은 친절하고 영어 잘합니다. 아침에 루프탑 올라가면 벌룬 잘 보여요. 조식은 매일 조금씩 바뀌며, 맛있습니다. 터키에서 가장 기억에 남는 호텔입니다.

화장실 불편

공사하고 있는중이어서 많이 불편 , 춥고연기 스며들고 개판이었습니다

Mon séjour à été fantastique, tant au point de vu chaleur de l'accueil que de la, propreté. Le petit déjeuner est délicieux Nefis en turc et très généreusement servi. Ils m'ont organisé un tour en Ballon. C'était tout simplement sublime. Tout est parfaitement organisé. Navette vous prend de l'hôtel avec sac petit déjeuner. Gentillesse et amabilité du chauffeur. On assiste au gonflage du ballon et on décolle avec des pilotes expérimentés qui manient le ballon je dirai au centimètre près. Bravo ! Cet hôtel est un véritable cocon familial. Merci à toute l'équipe et il va sans dire que je recommande à tous établissement sans la moindre restriction. Si on prend des kg😂😂😂mais à moins 11 il vaut mieux être être enveloppé. 😅

Sympathique

Première expérience en auberge de jeunesse. Endroit bien situé. Personnel accueillant. Bon petit-déjeuner. Bon rapport qualité prix. Petit bémol sur la douche à ce moment (une seule disponible). Salle de bains en construction. Je recommande pour les étudiants.

Hostel

Good

가성비 좋고 시설좋고 조식좋은데 단점은 샤워시설이 별로에요 그거말곤 최고 강아지도 있음

性價比高 位置超方便

這次入住雙床房，空間大小舒適也乾淨，性價比高，用餐區隨時備有茶跟咖啡及熱水，對需要熱開水的我而言真是太方便了。早餐雖然簡單，但每天都有不太一樣的蛋料理，兩隻小狗狗更是旅人的心頭好。另外位置極佳，離巴士站步行3-5分鐘，拖著行李箱入住也不是問題。

Cave dormitory

Friendly travelers, managers, free breakfast, cute dogs and free teas were perfect. Toilet and shower rooms are pretty old and dirty.
