Taşkonaklar's story begins in 2003, its owners say: the owner's mother, visiting as a tourist with friends, falls in love with Uçhisar and restores an old house surrounded by a vineyard. During the works the house turns into a small six-room hotel, then the family buys the house next door, and so on. Today Taşkonaklar has 24 rooms spread across stone houses and caves around gardens.
Very different rooms
The hotel groups its rooms into five types, and comfort varies a great deal: the Deluxe rooms have no indoor sitting area and no extra bed, while the suites have a fireplace, and several a terrace or an outdoor jacuzzi.
The MICHELIN Guide is frank: the entry-level rooms are small and dark, and it advises taking a suite. That is our advice too: the terrace is what makes this hotel.
Moniq, Cappadocian cooking
Moniq champions the region's cuisine, shaped by Anatolian, Greek, Armenian and Ottoman traditions. It works with local women and their recipes. A wine cellar and garden bars complete the picture.
Experiences
The hotel arranges many outings: balloon flights, dinner in a cave, a barbecue or sunrise breakfast in the valley, a sunset picnic, local wine tasting, hiking, cycling, horse riding, yoga and airport transfers. It also hosts ARC, a residency for artists and creators.
Details that matter
Taşkonaklar welcomes pets: a bed, blanket and bowls are provided on request, and rugs are removed from the room. The hotel has dropped single-use plastic bottles from its bathrooms and serves water in glass bottles washed and refilled on site.
Location
The hotel is in Uçhisar, Gedik Sokak No. 8, below the rock castle. Göreme is a few minutes' drive away and Nevşehir Airport (NAV) about 40 km. For the region, see our Cappadocia page.
Prices
In October 2026, for two nights from 1 to 3 June 2027, the hotel's own website offered its cheapest room at about €300 per night for two adults, breakfast included, non-refundable, all taxes included. The Junior Suite was offered at around €515 per night on other sites.
Sabaro's view
For whom: couples who want a terrace with a jacuzzi facing the landscape; travellers with a pet; lovers of regional cooking.
Strengths: the gardens and old houses; Moniq restaurant; the terraces with jacuzzis; a Google rating of 4.8 out of 5 (706 reviews).
Good to know: the Deluxe rooms are small and dark, in the MICHELIN Guide's view; take a suite. For a hotel with a heated pool and spa, also in Uçhisar, see Argos in Cappadocia.
