Great mix of old and new! The workmanship done to refurbish and rebuild this old castle into a mix of old and modern is beyond perfect .Our room was big, comfy, clean, full of amenities, and thoughtfully and artfully finished. The workers were all pleasant and helpful. Food was delicious and very plentiful and a bargain that was included in our room price. . We received delicious cheese filled warm Pita and dessert in the afternoon, a sit down dinner with freshly made soup, salad with fresh herbs, stew and dessert. Breakfast had a fresh delicious buffet and then we were served delicious cooked eggs and fresh pita with cheese This is a unique hotel for someone who loves the countryside and wants to stay in a castle. The atmosphere, architecture, upper lookout patios, garden trails, water hole and museum tour were extra bonuses . The newly planted gardens was wonderful and will be a delight to see when in bloom and in years to come.

we booked a room for three girlfriends. but arriving at the hotel, we were given the best room and a sea view for free!!!! Tea, coffee, drinks were also complimentary for the guests. it was awesome.

Excellent location. All tourist places in walking distance. Great hospitality. Staff very friendly. View from terrace is wonderful

Staff were wonderful and went above and beyond to help us and make us welcome. Amazing views.

The hotel was amazing and so was the owner and his staff. Rooms were beautiful and absolutely spotless, staff was very kind and helpful whenever we needed anything. The breakfast was plentiful and it was fresh and delicious, had something for everyone. There is a specialty coffee machine and tea available to guests 24 hours a day free of charge, cappuccinos were the best. The owner is just amazing, greeted us with a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice and a cookie, told us everything about the hotel and made us feel like we were at home.

The hotel is located very close to the main attractions of Sultanahmed neighborhood. Maybe only 150 steps to the Blue Mosque. There are plenty of nice small restaurants nearby. Breakfast was very good and fresh. We had everything that we needed with some local touch. The staff was amazing. They went way over the regular service, always trying to help and make our stay better. We even got a fruit plate and a nice card on our last day.

We absolutely loved this hotel. One of the best memories of our holiday in Turkey was arriving up a rather unprepossessing street quite late at night after a long day of travelling - and opening the gate to find ourselves in another world! In front of us was a beautiful little courtyard with flowers and views over the balcony and an immaculately clean pool with swallows swooping down over the water. We were met immediately by the friendliest staff and throughout our stay they offered help and advice - and a fan for the hot weather! Our room (10) was wonderful: quiet and air-conditioned with lots of space and light. Whenever we went out sightseeing, it was the perfect place to come back to - incredibly well-situated, with chocolate cake and coffee served for free in the afternoons! Having walked around Selcuk, we passed various other little hotels, but were always so very glad we'd chosen Akanthus. We'd recommend it wholeheartedly - and really wished we were staying more than two nights.

It has the most beautiful view since it’s at the top of cappadocia. There are many good spots for breakfast while enjoying the hot air balloon

The staff truly made the difference in our stay in Istanbul. Everyone was incredibly friendly, always making things smooth and greeting us with a smile. While all the reception team and Mohamed were wonderfully kind, I have to say the cats, Osman and Princess, really stood out. They made us feel even more welcomed and at home (this is coming from a dog person) The hotel is just a 5min walk from Galata Tower and offers beautiful views of the Golden Horn and Istanbul’s historic side. Our room had a balcony, which made the experience even more special, allowing us to soak in the city’s history right from our stay.

Everything was just amazing, good place to relax, quit with easy access to the beach, beautiful sea view and a nice private pool. The stuff was really friendly and very kind. Always checking on us if we need anything, smiley and beautifully spoken. The host Ms Ozjan was available all the time and made us feel very welcomed and all the workers were super nice on top of them Doaan and Ahmad. We really loved our stay and of course going to stay their again. Highly recommended.

A beautifully maintained cave hotel, with an exceptional staff and top-end care for its guests. Our family travels frequently, and the staff was one of the most attentive and kind groups we have encountered. They arranged activities and shuttles, researched special requests, and went out of their way to celebrate a family birthday. Ruhan was a particularly kind host. The beds and pillows are also quite comfortable.

Aisha was an amazing guide at the hotel. Rooms were super cozy and warm. Breakfast was delicious. They also have parking.
