Artemis Cave Suites & Spa is an adults-only cave hotel in central Göreme with strong sunrise balloon views, an underground Turkish bath and spa, a rooftop restaurant/bar and unusually consistent guest ratings. The current official homepage describes 24 cave rooms plus 4 stone rooms, while an older room-index page still shows a different count, so the safest approach is to treat the room inventory as subject to change and focus on the exact category available for your dates.

Where is Artemis Cave Suites?
Artemis is at Gaferli Mahallesi, Aydinkiragi Sokak No:22 in Göreme, one of the town's strongest hillside locations for sunrise and sunset views.
Booking.com gives the hotel an exceptional 9.8/10 location score.
Adults-only policy
Booking.com lists Artemis as Adults Only and states that children are not allowed.
That makes the hotel particularly relevant for couples and adult trips, but not suitable for families travelling with minors.
How many rooms does Artemis have?
The current official homepage says the hotel has 24 cave rooms and 4 stone rooms. An older room-index page still shows a different total, so inventory appears to have changed over time.
For travellers, the more useful question is which exact room category is available.
Stone Rooms
The official room page currently describes Stone Rooms at around 25 m², built with local Cappadocia stone to reproduce the regional cave style.
They include heated floors, air conditioning, shower, minibar, safe, Wi-Fi and tea/coffee facilities.
Cave Rooms
Standard Cave Rooms are currently described at around 30 m² with king-size beds. The hotel says the cave spaces were carved and used by different communities over centuries before being renovated for modern accommodation.
Deluxe Cave Rooms
Deluxe Cave Rooms are approximately 40 m² and add both shower and bathtub facilities.
They are a useful middle option for travellers who want more space without paying for a full suite.
Junior Suites and Suites
The official room pages currently describe the suite categories at around 50 m², with king beds, heated floors, bathtub and shower.
Because each cave room has a unique original shape, even rooms within the same category can feel different.
The Pigeon Nest
The Pigeon Nest is the hotel's most unusual room. Artemis describes it as a three-level cave room that historically sheltered pigeons, which were important in Cappadocia for fertiliser and pigments.
The current room is around 30 m² and includes a copper bathtub, fireplace, shower, minibar and king-size bed.
Balloon-view terraces
Artemis specifically promotes sunrise balloon views from its terraces and sunset views over the valleys.
The terrace experience is a genuine strength, but balloons are never guaranteed: flight approval and wind direction determine what happens each morning.
Underground Turkish Bath & Spa
Unlike hotels that send guests to an off-site spa, Artemis has an underground Turkish Bath and Spa on the property.
Booking.com lists spa and wellness services, sauna and massage. These services are generally separate from the room rate.
Kaira Rooftop
Booking.com lists Kaira Rooftop as the hotel's restaurant and bar concept.
The hotel's published restaurant menu includes modern snacks, salads, cheese boards and other dishes, with a separate service charge noted on the menu.
Breakfast
Booking.com lists buffet breakfast and describes current breakfast feedback as very strong.
Breakfast is one of the features that appears frequently in positive guest comments alongside staff, location and terrace views.
Airport shuttle and reception
The hotel currently lists airport shuttle service and a 24-hour front desk.
Staff can also assist with activities and local Cappadocia arrangements.
What do guests say?
Booking.com shows Artemis Cave Suites & Spa – Adults Only at 9.5/10 from 884 reviews. Staff and location are both 9.8, cleanliness and comfort 9.7, Wi‑Fi 9.6, facilities 9.5 and value for money 9.3.
That gives Artemis one of the stronger combinations of rating depth and current score among the larger Göreme hotel names.

Who is Artemis Cave Suites best for?
Artemis is particularly strong for couples who want central Göreme, sunrise views and an actual on-site hammam/spa rather than simply a photogenic cave room.
It also suits travellers who appreciate unique heritage-style accommodation such as the Pigeon Nest.
Who may prefer another hotel?
Families with children need another property because Booking.com lists Artemis as adults only.
If a swimming pool is essential, compare other Göreme hotels with pool facilities. If the highest possible guest score is your priority, Arif Cave Hotel currently scores even higher.
Artemis vs Arif vs Mithra
Artemis combines a strong 9.5 score with on-site spa facilities and an adults-only setting. Arif currently has a higher 9.8 guest score and panoramic hilltop position. Mithra offers more heavily marketed special balloon-view suite categories. Compare your exact room and current price.

If you want a central adults-only cave hotel with excellent guest scores, balloon terraces and a real on-site Turkish bath, Artemis is one of the strongest Göreme options to compare.
The most important booking choice is the room type. A Stone Room, Deluxe Cave Room, 50 m² Suite and three-level Pigeon Nest deliver very different experiences.
