Sacred House Hotel in Urgup, Cappadocia is a place like a fairy tale that combines Byzantine and Medieval theme with the ancient history of central Anatolia. Sacred House is tucked away on a narrow street in the old part of Urgup and there is no sign to indicate the hotel as they do not welcome door custormers. The stately old stone house is over 250 years old and features ornate stone work on the facade, a closed courtyard with stone steps to the upper gallery. Enjoy the pleasant background music in the courtyard from the oriental sitting area and which features some very old art and Armenian inscriptions. Upstairs there is a charming sitting room and reception with a small terrace that has a view of the rock formations and Temenni Hill. In the winter you can sit and have a drink by the warm hearth.

There is a romantic fireplace in five of the seven rooms. All rooms have a private bathroom with your own Jacuzzi. Candles are supplied in ornate holders and you will have complimentary cherry liqueur in a crystal bottle waiting for you in the room.
