Artvin

A city whose people seemed less conservative than the typical Black Sea crowd, yet somehow had the gruffest, most blunt-talking locals we encountered during our entire Black Sea road trip. That was genuinely surprising. We didn't expect the harshest attitudes to come from Artvin of all places.

My Place Reviews

Restaurants

Ustabaş Lokantası2025★☆☆☆☆

It was the worst cag kebab I've ever had in my life. Half the food was burnt to charcoal and the other half was undercooked.

Bars

KumsalKaraokeLiveMusic2025★★★★★

Fun place. Would be even better if it didn't reek of cigarettes inside :)

Hotels

Arhavi Resort Hotel2025★☆☆☆☆

Rooms are dirty, food is mediocre, staff is rude.
