By Funda Çetin

Argos in Cappadocia, the unique boutique hotel built in historic tunnels and cliff caves in Cappadocia / Turkey, ends 2011 on a high note, with three new hotel distinctions from renowned publications around the world including Travel Weekly, Fodor’s Travel Guides and Condé Nast Johansens. 

“With distinctions such as a Top 100 Hotel for Local Flavor, Top Luxury Hotel and a hotel with the Most Excellent View, Argos is proud to be considered among the world’s leading accommodations in 2011 and beyond,” said said Mr. Gökşin Ilıcalı, the hotel’s Managing Partner.
Argos’s 42 spacious rooms and suites were created from ancient cave dwellings and its meeting space is the underground, 2,000-year old Bezirhane Monastery, providing an authentic experience of the lifestyle of Cappadocia. In 2012, the hotel is planning t launch the Monks’ suits, valley-pool and a new Hamam/spa at the property.

Below are highlighted some of the recent award recognitions for the Argos in Cappadocia Hotel:

About Argos in Cappadocia Hotel
Perched high above the village of Uçhisar and just a ten minute walk away, this serenely beautiful and unique hotel is built from ancient ruins, caves and underground tunnels and is perfectly located for the exploration of all of Cappadocia’s treasures. Celebrating Cappadocia’s tradition of cave dwellings, the hotel provides 42 spacious rooms and suites that open onto balconies, terraces and secluded courtyards, often with splendid views of neighboring Güvercinlik Valley and distant peaks. Capturing the feel and texture of timeless stone and wood, each room is different, designed as a fusion of ancient and contemporary styles often using local artisans. All splendid suites even have their own private in-suite swimming pool.
Other features of the Argos in Cappadocia include the Seki Restaurant, with indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the valley and “fairy chimneys.” It uses locally grown products and spices to create the ideal combination of regional cuisine with international fare. The hotel’s huge wine collection, housed in its own caves, showcases bottles from its own Kalecik Karası vineyards as well as other Cappadocian selections.
Bezirhane, a spectacular event space over 26 feet high with giant stone walls and pillars, is situated in the two-thousand year old underground monastery and can accommodate up to 150 people, either for a wedding or special event. It is also an ideal setting often used for classical, jazz and Sufi music concerts. Depending on the time of year, events at the Bezirhane such as the annual Jazz in Cappadocia music festival and major art exhibitions are other enticements for a visit.
