- Listed, not confirmed — call first
Motel on the Vize road on the eastern edge of Pınarhisar, about 1.5 km from the centre and on the way out of town. Its website was offline in October 2026; call to book.
Checked online in October 2026. Places marked "listed, not confirmed" appear on OpenStreetMap or the Culture Routes Society listing but could not be confirmed on their own website. The towns (Edirne, Kırklareli, Pınarhisar, Vize, Saray, Istanbul) have hotels, but several stage ends are villages with no beds at all: there you need a tent, village hospitality or a taxi to the nearest hotel. Call a day ahead, and carry cash in Turkish lira.
