Looking for a winter getaway with a bit more adventure than a Christmas market? Argos in Cappadocia offers something special, nestled within the ancient village of Uçhisar, and with one of the most stunning backdrops you’ll find at any hotel.

Cappadocia is known for its timeless, otherworldly landscapes, and Argos provides a unique luxury through both cultural and culinary exploration. The property itself is one-of-a-kind, an intertwining network of centuries-old stone mansions, hidden tunnels, and sweeping views over Pigeon Valley and the Erciyes Mountain. Argos embraces the history and culture of its land, leaving you feeling connected to the region through local sourcing in its restaurants and traditional wellness treatments.

Winter corner at Argos

Winter is one of the best times to visit, as Argos transforms into a serene retreat. The Winter Corner invites intimate gatherings, while Winter Picnics feature seasonal delicacies by the fire pit. Explore snow-dusted valleys and wellness offerings that complement the season, including spa therapies inspired by Anatolian rituals and yoga and meditation sessions in rock-carved studios. They are exceptional after a day exploring Cappadocia’s stunning but demanding terrain.

There’s so much to explore in the region and at the hotel, from a wine-tasting experience in an ancient chapel to a private cooking class that allows guests to delve deeper into regional flavours. These tailor-made experiences bring you closer to Cappadocia’s cultural essence, from the iconic balloon ride to cycling through the valleys to a skiing escape.

Argos spa and indoor pool

The hotel was recently recognised with two Michelin Keys in the 2025 selection, providing guests with a living connection to Anatolia’s heritage. A highlight lies in its gastronomy, which embraces Cappadocia’s culinary legacy while finding new expression.

Sample its culinary delights at two flagship restaurants, where seasonal ingredients are acquired from a strict 60 km radius, as well as produce and herbs harvested in the hotel’s own garden. Seki Restaurant has a menu full of seasonal produce and local flavours, from slow-cooked lamb with regional herbs to stone-baked bread and meze from the land. Meanwhile, at Nahita, sustainability takes centre stage, with local sourcing, rainwater collection and authentic Anatolian ingredients blending into its dining rituals.

Wine-lovers are in for a treat at Argos. A collection of more than 25,000 vintages is stored in a cellar built into an ancient cave beneath the hotel grounds, where subterranean conditions provide naturally perfect conditions. As well as serving the hotel’s two restaurants, the cellar itself can be booked for private wine tastings.
