Hotel Gino Wellness Rabath

The front desk staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The location is absolutely gorgeous. The restaurant offered a great selection of food and drinks. I can say that if your travel plans to Georgia include a trip to Akhaltsikhe, then do yourself a favor and book a room here.

The best hotel I stayed in while in Georgia – not sure whether it would count as top of mid-range or something like a four-star, but it was comfortable and well run. Staff speak English and there’s a basement spa/wellness centre to underline the upmarket credentials. Rooms and bathrooms are a little bland but everything works, including the fridge and mini-bar, and although views are a bit lacking, that’s no problem because you have access to the eastern third of Rabati castle to explore at any time. The hotel restaurant is excellent and serves the full range of Georgian favourites, including quite a few vegetarian options, at prices that are only slightly higher than average; breakfast is good too, although it doesn’t start until 9 am. You probably won’t stay more than a couple of nights because that’s all it takes to explore Akheltsikhe and other bits of southwest Georgia, but they will be well worth it.

Another interesting case of bad management in hospitality. This hotel has so much potential. It is super well located, the place is a beauty and everybody would love to stay in a castle. Also it's clean, although the lighting is so dark that you can't see it.. but somehow they destroy it all with their rudeness. After several reviews pointing to that, there seems to be no improvement. The attendants of the hotel perfected the art of being dry and rude to the limit. They make you totally uninvited and uncomfortable. Also In the restaurant I stood up for minutes in one entrance then I walked to the other entrance and nothing. Nobody came to me or told me to sit. They just gave me the back and when they looked, they moved to the other direction. One of them saw me and went to the computer and stayed there.. I simply didn't exist as a potential customer, so I walked away to a place where they value customers. Take my advice and never come to this hotel/restaurant. You deserve better

very comfortable bed, clean and quiet.

The location was excellent to roam the castle complex in afternoon when quiet. Staff made effort to accommodate my needs at dinner. The rooms were spacious and equipped.
