White Rock Castle Hotel is a 5-minute walk from the beach - a lie, 3 km to the beach: even if you run fast, you do not have time to meet the deadline. This is confirmed by the reviews of other guests who wrote that the beach is 3 km and therefore runs a minibus, designed for 6 people.

There is a parking lot - yes, almost. There are 5 parking spaces in front of the hotel for rooms 200. Reserve parking - behind the hotel, and then return to it, will have to go through the landfill and public toilet (photo attached).

All rooms and apartments are furnished with modern furniture - to taste and color, of course, but the renovation - the Soviet Union, and even worse: absolutely tastelessly furnished room, the cheapest furniture imaginable, super-cheap curtains in the snot and still unknown what, bathroom (why - then) instead of a shower, everything is moldy and stinks so that even falling asleep was difficult.

Serious sea view from several rooms and apartments - seriously?

Just imagine the "sea view", which is 3 km away. And a parking lot (paid, not hotel) in front of the house of the inn, trees 5 meters and a market with barbecues on the contrary, as soon as you cross the roadway (lively, by the way).

The White Rock Castle Hotel has a restaurant - no comment, the food was disgusting. It was even scary to look at her, not what she is. They left hungry, but were not poisoned.

Some also wrote in reviews about "sensitive staff" - I want to dispel this myth: we were not even greeted, and the hotel manager just hid from us when we wanted to get our money back for the room (we paid in advance). The money was not returned to us in two nights out of three. We left the hotel early the next morning, so it was disgusting.

Pool - overlooking the parking lot, bushes and landfill.
To the sea 30 minutes through a paid botsad garden, something about 18 lions per person at a time to go to the beach (so we, by the way, recommended "responsive staff"), or through the bushes on the trampled stairs and littered bushes (believe me, no romance) .

There is simply no beach. In order not to be unfounded, just add a photo.

Restaurants in Balchik itself are an order of magnitude worse and more expensive than in Sozopol, where we rested before.

And in general the city - to do nothing. There is only a small part of the promenade with restaurants and a marina, that's all.

I definitely do not recommend the hotel. Don't be fooled by good reviews, after visiting the hotel I don't understand how they do it, so that these reviews appear at all. I have a lot of travel experience, and I can say with confidence: this is the worst hotel I've ever been to. Everything in it was superhero: service, food, location, the city itself.
The cherries on the cake will be jellyfish, which on the beaches of Balchik are just teeming with gray muddy water), and these "picturesque" boulders that frame the "coast" of this "resort" - the song is simple!

Don't waste money and save your nerves.

The room was booked for August 5-8 in the name of Natasha Shpakovich, if anything.

We left the next day after settling in, the money was not returned to us.
