Caves, Chimneys and Stone Houses in Cappadocia

As poor travel editors our budget usually buys us a night in a charmless room in a central part of town but recently we took advantage of our website and traded some of our advertising space to stay in accommodation that were worth enjoying in their own right.

The Cappadocia region of Turkey offers an array of hotel options where competition drives hoteliers to compete on style, uniqueness and ambience rather than on price alone. We took the opportunity to compare three different cave hotels in the region, one in Avanos and two in Goreme.

A Place to Stay in Jordan

We got to see the tourism industry from the other side of the hotel fence during our time in Jordan. All rooms are twins or doubles with bathroom unless otherwise stated.

Al-Amer Hotel. Aqaba
Raghadan St. Tel: +962 (03) 201 4821
Our first home in Jordan, the Al-Amer provided the first suggestion accommodation in Jordan wasn’t going to be the bargain it can be in Egypt. Though we negotiated the rate down from JD24 to JD18 we still thought this a little expensive but, with more experience of Jordanian prices, now consider this price quite reasonable. The standard shape and size of many hotel rooms found the world over, we had a large bed, a fridge and TV (no English language channels though). Looking down over the balcony we could see some of the good food options the street offered.
