Lonca Hotel

Top choice in Black Sea Coast


This cosy little boutique hotel is on the cobbled street that leads steeply up the castle hill's western flank. Rooms are very comfortable for the price with velveteen sofas and immaculate bathrooms. Staff are delightful, but no English is spoken.

Beware that the street outside gets dangerously slippery in wet weather.
