The Kelebek Special Cave Hotel is located in Goreme/Cappadocia Turkey. Not only surrounded but built into extraordinary, dramatic rock formations created by ancient volcanoes - the so called “fairy chimneys”.
Many of the soaring pinnacles are still inhabited. Others are rock-cut storerooms stuffed with grapes, lemons, potatoes. Some are cave churches, chapels and monasteries.

It is set in a UNESCO World Heritage site, where philosopher and entrepreneur Daniele Kihlgren restored ancient cave dwellings, in a run-down village in the impoverished area of southern Italy.
Today employing 15 local workers and therefore bringing back income to a town where the young otherwise would wander off to the cities. The rooms have for most of their 2,500-year history been homes to monks & peasants.
