5-Star Hotels in Kakheti, Georgia

Our opening in Georgia. Two times on May holidays. Live in different rooms. Two-room room with mountain view impressed especially. Rarely write positive reviews but it is one of the best hotel parks I have visited. The only minus is part of young staff, especially guys from the checkpoint at the entrance (in addition to bad manners, very weak English and lack of knowledge of Russian).

Family trip! The swimming pool(inside and outside )is amazing, and the kids had a great time! All facilities are kept clean. The front desk staff are very friendly and helpful. However, The lift is being fixed during our stay, so climbing the stairs was quite tiring. If you have any health issues or have heavy luggages, check in advance whether the elevator has been fixed. (Hotel staff will help you to move your luggages if you need) Also, the Wi-Fi signal was weak on the fourth floor. Everything else was excellent.

I had a nice stay with great amenities, beautiful grounds, a delicious breakfast, and a comfortable bed. However, the service upon arrival and check-in could be more welcoming, and the WiFi signal was weak.

Before coming to Georgia, I wasn't particularly interested in wine estates, but during my research, Tsinandali really caught my attention. I scoured Xiaohongshu for posts about the Tsinandali Estate, and now it's my turn to give back. 1. Everyone's impression of it: My chartered driver and guide, whenever I mentioned staying in Tsinandali, everyone would give a thumbs-up. For somewhat reserved Georgians, this seemed like the highest praise. This further solidified my decision to stay here for two days. 2. On Google Maps, you can see many accommodations with the 'Tsinandali' tag nearby, ranging in different price points. This vast land belongs to the same owner, including the museum, offering options for all budgets. After exploring on foot, the Tsinandali Estate is indeed the best, which I'll elaborate on later. 3. Regarding the service staff on this estate, don't compare the Tsinandali Estate to the usual Radisson hotel service standards. The 'aunties' working on the ground floor and the security guards here are mostly local elderly women and men. Perhaps this is the owner's care for former tenants. Aside from the younger staff, most of the older generation don't understand English, even simple words like 'water' or 'bye-bye.' But that doesn't diminish my positive feelings towards them. Things you can do here: 1. The hotel has a hidden room in the -1 basement. Go find it yourself; it's like Platform 4.1/3 from Harry Potter. 2. The hotel's lighting design is absolutely stunning. You could compile an album of the lights, I'm waiting for it! 3. The hotel offers Russian steam baths and wine baths + massages. Compared to five-star hotels in China, the prices here are definitely worth it. I tried to book on the same day but couldn't get an appointment. I bought a swimsuit and went to the steam room after swimming. You can see various massage and steaming services in the pictures. 4. The welcoming dog at the entrance – I wish someone would tell me its name. In the morning, I told it I was going to the museum, and it followed me closely, constantly looking back to make sure I was keeping up. It led me directly to the ticket office. It definitely understands Chinese! 5. You can book cooking classes here, masterclasses, and various culinary workshops. The prices are appealing, but they require a minimum of two people. 6. You can visit the museum and also enjoy wine. There's a free guided tour. Admission is 10 Lari, and with 3 glasses of wine, it's 25 Lari. If you chat with the old gentleman about what kind of wine you like, he'll let you taste them all, not limited to three glasses. I prefer sweet wine, and he let me taste a 2018 bottle. You can ask him to open it for you to take back to your room. Bought it, drank it, happy! 7. There are other vineyard tours available, requiring a minimum of 4 people and lasting about 3 hours. There are also specialized wine tasting courses. The prices are all reasonable; I've posted pictures, so you can take your time to look them over. 8. Most importantly, rooms 444 and 344 face the snowy mountains (no balcony). You can try to request these room types. The views from all rooms are great. I didn't want a room near the elevator, so I ended up with a corner room, but the view was unbeatable. The rooftop pool also faces the snowy mountains. There are loungers on the top floor; grab a bottle of red wine, and life feels truly worthwhile! 9. Oh, and hotel massages must be booked in advance. They offer excellent value for money.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The room and the entire property were very clean. The front desk staff spoke a little Russian and English. The pool area staff were also very friendly and helpful with directions. The pool is heated, but we found it a bit cool in the evening, though it was perfect during the day in the sun. You can warm up in the sauna, steam room, or hammam. I celebrated my birthday at this hotel and received a cake and a card as a gift, which was a lovely surprise! There's a large parking lot by the road, and they'll take you to the hotel entrance on a golf cart. The restaurant prices are a bit high, but I really enjoyed having dinner or lunch with a view on the terrace. The hotel has two restaurants: one on the 1st floor serving Georgian cuisine and another on the 4th floor for European dishes. It's a 6-minute drive to Sighnaghi city. You can go into town for a stroll and a more budget-friendly meal if that's important to you. I highly recommend this hotel!

Great family hotel!! Very friendly staff, warm pool, great atmosphere! Would love to visit again

Although the hotel is in a remote location, it can still be reached by car from the town of Kvareli, which is about ten minutes away. There are a lot of taxis in the town, but it is not convenient to go out. There is a service called taxi, and the price is average. I can only wait to be hacked. The hotel and taxi have commercial cooperation, and help to call a taxi to some tourist spots to package back and forth. The drivers are waiting to get the benefits, which makes people feel a little bit uncomfortable. The scenery of the hotel is really good, it is worth coming, free items can be seen in the picture I passed, the service fee is 18%, not included in the price. The breakfast looks good, it tastes better to me than other places, the taste is not so salty, and there are many choices, but it is more Georgian. There are also some paid items see photos. By the way, I think the hotel’s free spa can be given up. It’s better to take a bath in the hotel room. The spa is a public bathhouse. There are no people and there is no heat. There are multiple steaming rooms. It feels like nothing to go to when it’s cold and hot. Well, anyway, I felt like I slipped away without washing it. I didn't pick up the car when I went back. I walked by myself. Fortunately, it only took two minutes. That's about it, I don't know what else is missing.
