Volca Inn Cappadocia — Cave Suites & Stone Rooms in Uçhisar

13 courtyard, cave and stone rooms in the heart of Uçhisar, where volcanic stone meets a sky full of balloons.

Uçhisar, Cappadocia
the highest village of Cappadocia

Welcome

Rooted in volcanic stone, open to the sky

Millions of years ago, the volcanoes of Erciyes, Hasan and Göllüdağ covered this land in ash. Wind and water carved it into the valleys and fairy chimneys that make Cappadocia unlike anywhere else on earth. Volca Inn takes its name from that fiery beginning.

Our home is Uçhisar, the highest village in the region, crowned by its ancient rock castle. It is a quieter, more local base than the busy centre of Göreme, yet only a few minutes away from it. Come for the sunrises, stay for the hospitality.
