From Istanbul to Kapadokya
By plane
There are daily flight from Istanbul to Kayseri's Erkiler Airport and to Nevsehir's Kapadokya Airport. The flight company are Turkish Airlines and Pegasus Airlines. Not so expensive, when i checked it was around 30 euro or 50.
By train / bus
Is a bit longer, with Ankara Ekpresi sleeping car train at Istanbul's Haydarpasa Station, overnight and arrive in the morning at Ankara Gar, then you have to take a taxi to the Ankara's main bus terminal, and take a bus to Nevsehir, it takes 4 hours.
By bus
Is a long ride, about 10/12 hours, but if you choose the right company you'll find that buses are really comfy. There are many companies, i choose Nevsehir company, every seat has a personal tv, and the seats were large. The price is around 12 euro, is the cheapest way to arrive in Kapadokya, and not less important is that you save a night's hotel. You can buy the ticket from all the tour company (Sultanameth is full of it), but ask first to some, even usually they ask the same price. The tour company will bring you to the bus stop by mini buses.
Accomodation
Kapadokya has all sort of hotels but the famous one are the "boutique hotel", and could be a beautiful experience, even the price could be higher (still not expensive anyway) compared to the pensions. But sleep in a cave room personally it's been well worthwhile!
Want you an example?
I booked my hotel in Istanbul, when i bought the bus ticket to come here, just because the man was saying how much could be difficult find an hotel there without booking it before. After i found out i could find by myself, choosing the one i prefer and overall with cheap prices. There always space. So that's my advice.
