How to choose a cave hotel in Cappadocia?

One place you must visit at least once in your life is definitely Cappadocia~ Cappadocia is known as "the place on Earth that looks most like the surface of the moon" due to its unique landscape, and it is also the filming location of the classic movie "Star Wars"~ Cappadocia refers to a region with special landforms, including Göreme, Ürgüp, Uçhisar, and others. Among them, Göreme is a small town located centrally and at the core of Cappadocia, and it is the town where most tourists usually choose to stay. ✈️ How to get there: Cappadocia has two airports: Nevşehir Airport and Kayseri Airport. The former is about a 20-minute drive from Göreme, while the latter is about an hour's drive from Göreme. From the airport to the hotel, you can ask the hotel you are staying at in advance to help book a shuttle bus. 🏠 How to choose a hotel: When you come to the "moon town" Göreme, you must experience the locally distinctive cave hotels. But there are so many cave hotels in Göreme, and each one is beautiful, which will definitely make you overwhelmed with choices. Since you are here to see the hot air balloons, the first criterion for selection is naturally the height; the higher, the better, because a higher location offers an unobstructed and wider view. Of course, higher is not always better—you also need to consider the distance from the balloon launch route. Next is the terrace setup, whether it has carpets or cushions, and also carefully arranged fruit and tea sets, so the photos taken will naturally be more beautiful. After comprehensive consideration, we chose the popular hotel Mithra this time. We have to say that influencers have sharp eyes; the rooftop of this hotel is indeed very photogenic. 📷 Best time to shoot: Every morning in Göreme is like a real fairy tale world! Hot air balloons slowly rise over this magical land, with light and shadow interweaving, creating a dreamlike and indescribably stunning and romantic scene! The first wave of hot air balloons usually flies over around five o'clock, and the first wave has the largest number of balloons taking off, making the photos look the most crowded, with the sky full of small balloons, which is very impressive. Although the hot air balloons last for about an hour, they become sparse after 5:30, so you must go to the terrace early.
