Yunak Evleri is a combination of six cave houses with a total of 27 private cave rooms dating back to the 5th and 6th Centuries and crowned with a 19th Century Greek Mansion. This magnificent collection of cave rooms was restored by a team of architects, restorers and a total of 25 workers. Taking nearly four years to complete, Yunak Evleri has created a peaceful balance between modern comfort and tradition.
The slightly showy entrance of this old Greek mansion, with its stone columns and fountain, leads to stylish cave rooms with kilim-covered stone floors, wrought-iron beds, a balcony or shared terrace, and modern bathrooms. A music library has CDs guests may borrow, and there are separate living and sitting rooms for watching TV or using the hotel’s laptop. Meals can be served on request in a private dining room, in addition to in the hotel’s restaurant. The hotel is adding an outdoor swimming pool following the contours of the natural rock, as well as a spa and Turkish bath.
As the original shape of the cave rooms was preserved in the restoration, strictly respecting the local character, each room is different and offers a unique atmosphere. All are decorated with hand-made embroidery, lace curtains, antique furniture (dating back to the Ottoman period), Anatolian kilims and beautiful traditional carpets.
The modern bathrooms are made of marble and have Hilton sinks and ceramic Chartwell closets. The honeymoon suite has a Jacuzzi and the Ottoman suite has a steam bath.
All the rooms have non-allergic goose feather quilts, pillows and orthopedic mattresses, balcony or patio, Hi-fi with a CD Player, and direct dial phones, heating. The suites have a Jacuzzi or steam bath.
