Hotels near Gelati Monastery, Kutaisi

The lovely owners - Polina & Egore are the USP of this beautifully appointed hotel . They are warm hospitable & helpful - meeting them has been one of the highlights of our 15 day Georgia vacation. We had booked a suite with terrace - very spacious with a huge sit out area over looking FIVE churches & a tranquil river. There is lots of greenery all around. It has an open feel unlike other popular hotels in kutaisi; while there is not much walking area as such within the property - it’s a place you want to curl up with a book whilst your hosts pamper you with great food & wines ! Polina & Egore went out of their way to procure Amber wine for us; they planned a very comfortable trip for us to Tetra cave, Motsminda monastery & the Shaorskoye reservoir for a very reasonable sum. Being fantastic cooks + their very sweet British helper made the entire stay a great gastronomical experience. We were staying in Kutaisi just for the caves & canyons day tour & had an extra day - it couldn’t have been better spent. I must mention that despite having a full house, Polina offered to drop us at the city centre for the caves tour early morning - just 10 minutes away but her thoughtfulness impressed us. I would definitely opt for the lovely veranda hotel whenever I visit Kutaisi next.

We stayed for one night at Rate Hotel Canudos in Kutaisi and were pleasantly surprised. The hotel is stylish and spotlessly clean, with a warm and friendly welcome that instantly makes you feel at ease. The room had everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay, making it a perfect stopover in the city. If you’re passing through Kutaisi and looking for a modern, welcoming place to rest, Rate Hotel Canudos is an excellent choice.

The owner woke up specially to let us in.

This hotel has a wonderful view right by the river. Owners are welcoming and very friendly. Amenities were good and we were absolutely satisfied. They invited us to dinner and hosted us nicely. We felt like at home. All these good vibes inspired us to come back here and maybe stay a little longer. Thank you very much for everything.

A great guesthouse in Kutaisi, which we chose specifically outside the city center — firstly, there is a fuss and a problem with parking in the center, and secondly, we wanted some unusual, natural view from the window, for example by the river. According to these criteria, we found this cozy, nice guesthouse hotel with absolutely wonderful, sincere hosts — Irakli and Nastya. The family welcomed us warmly, comfortably accommodated us on the 3rd floor in the largest room with a terrace and a view of the dam. Under the "white noise" of the water, it turned out that we slept well. It's a pity, the weather was a bit let down and it raining cats and dogs most of the days. But the hosts told us a lot of interesting places where you can go to have a delicious, georgian meal (we had not come across these restaurants before, but they are a godsend) and what to see in the area in bad weather. To crown it all, I would like to note the excellent breakfasts in the mornings at the guesthouse — delicious, big portions, at home!

Really nice room, very comfortable. The host was super nice with us .
