4Oda Cave House, Ürgüp, Turkey

4Oda Cave House, a tiny rock-hewn pension in Ürgüp, Cappadocia, is the domain of Ms Elvan and Mr Sermet Özbay, and maintains its reputation as one of the friendliest, most hospitable guest houses in Cappadocia.

The four rooms (dört oda)—actually now five—have all the comforts and amenities, including private bathrooms, and there's room on terraces for sitting, sipping, reading, sunning and chatting.

The great advantage of 4Oda is that you can enjoy panoramic views of Cappadocia right from your guest room. (Most similar inns have views, but from terraces and public rooms, not guest rooms.)

Elvan and Sermet also pride themselves on the richness and variety of 4Oda's breakfasts: regional cheeses and fruit preserves, breads and pastries, and unusual garnishes make starting the day—and lingering over breakfast to try everything and chat about it—a singular pleasure.

Elvan is an experienced licensed private guide who can advise you, in fluent English and in detail, on what to see and do in Cappadocia, and may even be available for private tours. (If you saw the "Cities of the Underworld: Cappadocia" program on The History Channel on TV, that was Elvan Hanim guiding the host through the eerie Underground Cities and rockhewn cave houses of Cappadocia.)

Ürgüp's Esbelli neighborhood, where 4Oda is located, is a quiet one of private houses and other small cave inns.
