Where the hotel is
The rock castle of Ortahisar is a short walk from Carna Cave Hotel, a cave hotel whose rooms are carved into the rock in the heart of the village. Elika Cave Suites and Castle Inn Luxury Hotel are next-door neighbours, so the hotel sits within a small cluster of places to stay around the castle. For a day out, the Zelve Open-Air Museum, with its abandoned rock-cut settlement, is a short drive away.
