Tip from tour guide

Make sure to go on a sunset tour from this hotel to admire a gorgeous Cappadocian sunset. I like enjoying a glass of wine while gazing at the sun setting over the magical valleys of Cappadocia. It feels like I'm letting Arinna, the sun goddess, play her part and disperse into my body. She is still as powerful as Cappadocian wine.
