With an old touristic infrastructure, a new trend emerges in the Constanta hotel market: the outstanding hotels are being demolished to make room for new, modern projects, adapted to the present demand. Statistics show that in 2024 around 3,000 hotels rooms were closed in Constanta County. This trend will continue in the coming years due to old hotel infrastructure and intensive investment budgets to increase quality of services.
As infrastructure works for better mobility in the south of the seaside advance, we expect to see new investments in Eforie, Costinesti and Neptun-Olimp.
