Fashioned out of stone and harnessing the beauty of natural labyrinths, the world's most stunning cave and cliffside hotels will carve themselves a place in your imagination too.
Staying in caves: it's nuts, it's amazing. You feel like a troglodyte wandering about under the fairy chimneys drinking vodka and tonic. What an awesome, extreme place Cappadocia is. The best way to see its crazy lunar landscape is from a hot-air balloon early in the morning. Then come back to your room, which is carved out of the rock, itself a zillion years old. There are brass beds, log fires, a rooftop restaurant for summer nights (with warm woollen ponchos if it's too chilly under the stars). Whatever you do, be sure to take your most comfortable shoes - you wouldn't catch a Flintstone wearing Choos. Tel 00 90 384 341 6920. Fax 00 90 384 341 6924. Website yunak. com.
