State teachers' guesthouse on Çorum Caddesi in the centre of Alaca, on the trail, with a published price list. Teachers' guesthouses usually take other guests when they have room: call ahead.
Checked online in October 2026. Places marked "listed, not confirmed" appear on a public listing (OpenStreetMap, Yandex Maps or the official Hitit Yolu plan) but could not be confirmed on their own website. There are hotels only in Boğazkale and Alaca; the other official overnight stops are wild camps by the ponds or a village house if one is offered, so carry a tent, a stove and food for two days.
