This is a family hotel, it's like a private house. The hotel lives up to all its stars. We only had breakfast. The hotel is not bad, I would advise, and why not. It is not close to the sea and the airport, only 15-20 minutes to the sea, we visited the public beach, but closer to the center.

We chose this hotel by accident and will not go there again. This is not a hotel, but a guest house, but we still prefer hotels. Everything was fine, but from the beach, from the center is very far. The environment around this guest house is miserable, plus the owners are constantly present, we personally did not like all this.

The environment around this guest house is miserable, plus the owners are constantly present, we personally did not like all this. There was a courtyard, next to the road, constant noise from it; we had a room with a balcony, but it would be better if we lived in a room without a balcony, but the windows would look out onto the courtyard, and not onto the roadway, on which cars drive all day long. When leaving this guest house, it was necessary to go through several intersections, there were shops and cafes, there was where to eat, but nothing special. We walked to the beach, but it was far away. We were offered excursions, but we never use these offers, we always go ourselves. There is no service in this guest house, it is like a villa, the owners are there . . they had breakfast and that's it, they left. We definitely do not plan to come back here again, as it is very far away.

Guest house Zebo was chosen by chance, but very well. Above all praise....) I can give such an assessment in all respects "EXCELLENT": I liked the room, the wood trim, as if you live in a house. Large shower, everything as described. The national cuisine is so easy to prepare and so delicious, I would never have thought that you could make a dish out of these ingredients) The atmosphere of a constant holiday, thanks to the owners who are greeted with a smile in the kitchen every day.

It is very convenient that there are tables for outdoor breakfast and gatherings in the yard). Check-in and check-out without problems. It takes about 15 minutes to go from the hotel to the sea, while since there are so many beautiful things around, you don’t notice the time) There are no minuses in the guest house. The owners are so caring that you feel at home and as if not in a foreign country. Treats, acquaintance with the country's culture and traditions are priceless. Wine - incomparable, and most importantly all natural. I also want to note the excursions that you can make with Zebo are much cooler than from agencies and cheaper.

The location of this hotel is very good. Close to the waterfront, close to the park. The rooms here are very good. Meals: we had breakfast included, a good, albeit standard breakfast. Internet: Wi-Fi was also normal. The hotel is just wonderful.

You need to go to Zebo if you want to feel like a part of a large Georgian family. We appreciate the hospitality of the owner and hostess of the guest house at 110%! They will always help, solve the problems that have arisen, tell you where to go, how to get to the necessary places, and give you a lift if possible.

Zebo organizes excursions that are much cheaper than tour operators, and there are places where others don’t even take them. It was they who seemed to us the coolest - a national park with a waterfall and a mountain lake, a family restaurant on the banks of a mountain river, my mother's house in the mountains. Moreover, you can create a program for yourself, or you can rely on Zebo's taste : -). Believe me, all Georgians consider it simply obligatory to show the most beautiful places in Georgia and the money issue is far from being in the first place for them. So Zebo took one tourist, because there were no other people willing that day.
I cannot fail to mention the delicious red homemade wine in Zebo's cellar : -) He generously treats his guests to it. We are happy with our choice and have no regrets!

Just got back from Georgia. Of the three hotels / guesthouses proposed by the travel agency, they chose the Zebo guest house. And they weren't wrong. Before we had time to bring our suitcases into the room, the owner Zebo immediately treated us to delicious wine. Here it is - Georgian hospitality!!! We got a room on the first floor: the room is spacious (for 3 people).

We got a room on the first floor: the room is spacious (for 3 people). There is a working air conditioner, a TV fridge (which was hardly watched) and a comfortable bed - we slept better than at home. Hairdryer, if necessary, can be borrowed in the common lobby. It is possible to use the kettle (in the kitchen) - make tea / coffee, as well as use any kitchen utensils.
Zebo and Nona are always friendly, suggesting which restaurants are better to go to (to taste delicious and inexpensive! ), How best to get to various attractions. Thanks to them ; )
We also agreed with Zebo about excursions: we saw many waterfalls, parks, went to Zebo's mother (high, high in the mountains! ). I really liked the excursion to the Martvili Canyon and the Mtirala National Park.
Zebo and Nona, thanks again for everything. We love you very much. Health and prosperity to you.

We flew with Join Up, chose the best price offer plus a morning flight and back in the evening. The departure time was postponed 4 times, as a result, they flew away the next day at night, settled at 5 in the morning, in fact, they stole the whole day from us. But still, for almost the same price that we paid for the tour without food, the guys nearby on the plane bought only round-trip tickets a day before departure.

We flew with Join Up, chose the best price offer plus a morning flight and back in the evening. The departure time was postponed 4 times, as a result, they flew away the next day at night, settled at 5 in the morning, in fact, they stole the whole day from us. But still, for almost the same price that we paid for the tour without food, the guys nearby on the plane bought only round-trip tickets a day before departure. So it is profitable to fly to Georgia by charters through a travel agency. Hotel Elada and this hotel were the same price, chose Zebo and never regretted it. The first option is a full scoop, even according to advertising photos, its only plus is 600 m to the beach.
The check-in went very quickly, they didn’t even ask us for documents, all questions were postponed until we got some sleep.
The house is very beautiful, all in a lining, on the ground floor there is a cozy lounge with a computer (you can use it), an aquarium and music. tools. The numbers are not equal.
We lived on the second floor - there was a bathroom, a bed with an orthopedic sailor, a wardrobe, a table and a chest of drawers with a mirror. Cozy, but without a balcony and TV. On our floor there were similar rooms with a balcony and armchairs. On the first one, I didn’t look into the rooms, but on the third, not very much - one bathroom with a bathtub for 2 rooms and a bed under a sloping roof. I think resettlement depends on the price and room category (the owner is actively cooperating with booking). An important plus is the opportunity to use the huge master's kitchen and tables under a canopy on the street. On our floor there was also a mini-kitchenette, on the common table - a hairdryer, mosquito repellent and extra. towels.
The beach is about 25 minutes at a brisk pace, there are minibuses, but we didn’t go. Walking around Batumi was a pleasure. The owner, if he was free, gave free rides wherever needed.
Owners are a whole other issue. Very welcoming and hospitable.
On the first day, Zebo treated him to homemade wine, invited him to dinner and generally solved all issues)). Nona is a very beautiful and charismatic Georgian woman, she told a lot of interesting things about traditions, she cooks incomparably.
In mid-September it was not hot, sometimes overcast, a couple of times a week it rained a little. Therefore, we were on the beach 3 times and it did not impress us much. Were also on the beach Kvariati and Green Cape (near the botanical garden), it is cleaner there. They also recommend Sarpi (near Turkey). Very large pebbles, it hurts to go into the sea without shoes, the water is far from turquoise, but in clear weather it is very transparent, even in the center. But insanely beautiful embankment, in the enclosures we saw different birds, even peacocks. The vegetation there in places is even more interesting than in the botanical garden - palm trees, bamboo, bananas. At the end - a monument to Ali and Nino, the Alphabet tower, not far from the Argo cable car. On the promenade you can ride all kinds of small wheeled vehicles for rent.
3 times with the owner went on excursions from morning to evening. For 4 tourists in a car, the prices are very reasonable, they pick it up and bring it straight home, the route was built for us and plus according to Zebo's recommendations (this was the most interesting thing). The first day we were in the Martvili Canyon, Prometheus Cave, Sataplia Reserve, in the evening we stopped at an excellent non-tourist restaurant in a village near Batumi to see the owner's friends. A restaurant on a mountain river with a picturesque bridge, its own farel farm, I even found a few flywheels on the territory! We rested very sincerely, they laid a chic table for us, drank from the horn, danced, listened to Georgian toasts. At prices, taking into account the drunk and eaten, it is very inexpensive, but the sea of u200bu200bpleasures and memories for a lifetime). The second day was in the fortress of Gonio, on the beach of Kvariati, we stopped at the Makhuntseti waterfall and to the bridge of Tamara, on the way - insanely beautiful views of mountainous Adjara.
The 3rd day we rode according to the Zebo program - the Mtirala reserve, his native village (his mother lives there, we visited) and a tall mountain with stunning views, where eagles fly in clear weather and ornithologists observe (you can look through binoculars). We saw how pomegranates, tangerines, kinglets and kiwi ripen. In the evening - his brother's restaurant on a mountain river, very beautiful with amazing cuisine and hospitality.
Most of all I liked the canyon, the cave and the whole third day. Although it was raining and the eagles did not fly, it was quite difficult to walk along the hills of the reserve, but we enjoyed the magnificent views, extreme driving along dangerous serpentines and a chic restaurant.
We went to the botanical garden on our own, it’s nice to walk in places, but it didn’t cause much enthusiasm. It was rather tedious to walk from the entrance for about 15 minutes along the asphalt along the hill before something interesting starts.
But from there there is a cool view of the sea, a clean beach, and we also saw a praying mantis and an outdoor ceremony of a Georgian wedding on a tree! )
We went to Turkey for shopping, we were satisfied. It is convenient to combine this trip with the Sarpi border beach, but it was cloudy, so we limited ourselves to a large shopping center and a street with small shops behind it. You can get around everything in 4 hours, the road and crossing the border in one direction - about an hour.
In general, Batumi left ambiguous impressions - a striking contrast with the drop dead embankment and shabby houses of residential areas. The sea is so-so, but the nature is awesome, and in the end I just fell in love with Georgian cuisine. I especially liked khinkali, ojakhuri, spicy and eggplant in nuts. Prices in the cafe are reasonable and do not vary much. On average, khinkali - 0.7 GEL per piece, khachapuri, ojakhuri, soups within 5-8, barbecue - 8-12.
Wine and chacha were taken from the owner, in the market and in shops, here the prices are slightly different, but everything is natural everywhere. and in a huge range. They also bought tea and chestnut honey from Zebo - not very cheap, but I liked the quality.
But the main thing is people, everywhere open, hospitable and hospitable. Therefore, I realized - they go to Georgia for the Georgians! )).
