What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
the lobby announcing itself with slatted wood ceilings, oversized barn doors and clusters of pendant lighting.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set on the Old Town peninsula, the promenade puts 19th-century timber-framed houses, historic ruins, and the Black Sea coast within walking distance.
The rooms
Wood-paneled walls and skylight windows set a modern tone, while premium rooms add private balconies directly overlooking the Black Sea.
The pool and sauna
Bring a swimsuit.
Submerged loungers line the rooftop infinity pool overlooking the marina, and a timber sauna sits indoors.
The spa
Wicker daybeds rest against a herringbone brick wall in the lounge, beside treatment rooms for full-body scrubs and massages.
The gym and studio
A mirrored studio hosts Pilates reformer workouts, and the 24-hour gym holds weights and cardio equipment.
Dogs stay too.
Wine Bar Soho
Leather stools line a stacked-log counter inside, and glass doors open onto a covered stone patio along the promenade.
At the table
Boca Grande serves Spanish dishes and Black Sea seafood beneath beaded chandeliers and slatted timber ceilings.
