Curtea de Piatră
A natural-stone guesthouse in Cotiujeni (Șoldănești) - traditional restaurant and warm hospitality in Moldova's north
Cazare în cameră cu piatră aparentă + masă tradițională moldovenească pe terasa pensiunii
Worth it as a warm stop in Moldova's north: stone architecture, traditional food from local produce and consistently praised hospitality. A good base for a route to Saharna and Țipova.
Curtea de Piatră is a rural guesthouse built from natural stone in Cotiujeni (Șoldănești district), ~2 hours from Chișinău in Moldova's rolling north. Rooms are done in rustic-traditional style with wood and stone, and the in-house restaurant serves traditional dishes - sarmale, zeamă, fresh plăcinte - from local produce; reviews consistently praise the welcome, the cleanliness and the value. It also hosts private events (weddings, christenings, family gatherings). Best April-October, when meals are served on the terrace; it pairs nicely with the Țipova and Saharna cave monasteries on a northern day route.
