Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Kutaisi
For most travelers, Kutaisi International Airport (KUT) is the only logical choice, as it is the sole airport situated within the city. It serves international and regional flights, offering the most seamless access to downtown via shuttle or taxi. All other airports on this list are located in neighboring cities and serve as distant regional alternatives. Alexander Kartveli Batumi International Airport (BUS), located in the nearby city of Batumi, is a popular secondary entry point for coastal travelers, offering bus and train links to Kutaisi. Tbilisi International Airport (TBS) serves the nearby capital city of Tbilisi and requires a significant intercity transfer by coach or train to reach Kutaisi. Rize Artvin Airport (RZV) and Nalchik Airport (NAL) are located in neighboring countries, requiring lengthy cross-border transit that is generally only practical for specialized travel. Choose the nearest hub for speed and budget efficiency, reserving the distant options only if flight availability or pricing constraints dictate.

Great place if you have a late or night arrival! They picked us up for free from the airport in the middle of the night, which was super convenient. The hotel is located halfway between the airport and the city center, so it’s easy to get around. The staff were really kind and helped us find a taxi when we needed it. Everything was smooth and well organized — definitely recommend it!FromUS$50

The Hotel Monopoli is a really great modern hotel and if I stay in Kutaisi again, then I will book the same hotel again. Can it be recommended in full. The rooms have a beautiful design, are ordened and modern. Very Good9 Reviews

That chinese dude's 2-star review is ridiculous.
Good place for this price. The host is friendly and willing to share some tips about nearby places of interest.
The house offers most of the amenities you might require - shower, washing machine, big bed and a small table.
Take note that the house is up on the hill, so you'll have to take a small ”hike” to get back from the city. On the other hand, the place is quite and grocery store is nearby.
Also, don't count on the wi-fi and the fridge - let's just say that these resources are limited.FromUS$16

The hotel is very near to the main attraction but what we liked most was the staff and the owner were friendly and accommodating!
Our room was huge and we were provided with lots of towels and other amenities.
The breakfast was ok but not fab but it compensated of how they’d welcomed usFromUS$36

The hotel is not in the main city, the location is a bit off. Next to the hotel is the viaduct, very noisy at night, the noise on the road is very loud. The room area is very small, and the place to put luggage is difficult to find. The introduction on the Ctrip page is 18㎡, in fact, it is 10m. The data provided on Ctrip is often inaccurate, and the photos are not real enough. The room was very clean. The hotel's breakfast is on the top floor, and it is still very good. The restaurant can see some city scenery.FromUS$38

Best location! walking distance from Bagrati Cathedral and Colchis Fountain. Cheap price for a night including a good breakfast. Staffs are helpful. Room is good, with tea, coffee water, some toiletries. Bring your own slippers and toiletries better. We got a balcony with a nice view of the river. Down the hotel there is a bakery, a little grocery. Definitely I recommend staying in this hotel!Great28 Reviews

The room is small, but the facilities are complete, the boss is very enthusiastic, sharing the news, and also very artistic taste. It takes care of every detail in the store. The location of the hotel is very convenient. It takes less than 10 minutes to walk to the central square. The view of the hotel terrace is also very good. Very pleasant stay.FromUS$72

Впечатления от гостиницы лучше ожиданий. Хорошее соотношение цена/качество. Чисто, нет проблем с сантехникой и душем, нормальная мебель, приятный глазу дизайн номера. Персонал или хозяин быстро отвечают в мессенджере. Никаких сложностей при заселении. На первом этаже здания находится продуктовый магазин небольшой, цены нелучшие, но по-мелочи удобно покупать. Вход в гостиницу из переулка. Шумно не было, но с дороги шум доносится.FromUS$33

The Solomon is an ideal spot for travelers wanting to discover the city. Visitors to Kutaisi will find that the Solomon is a fantastic accommodation choice. Boasting a convenient location, the hotel is just 900m from Kutaisi I Railway Station and 22km from Kutaisi International Airport. There's plenty to do nearby, with Kutaisi Cable Car, 100 Step Staircase and Veriko Anjaparidze Square all within a short distance. This hotel makes a great place to kick back and relax after a long day of sightseeing. This Kutaisi hotel provides parking on site. According to our trusted guests, the facilities at this hotel are first-rate. 5 star

We stayed for 3 nights, it turned out to be 2 full days in Kutaisi. For us, the location was convenient, I arrived from Tbilisi by train. The hotel is next to the train station. Check-in is fast. The room is spacious enough, a comfortable bed, clean linen, towels. There is everything you need, gels, shampoos, toothbrushes. There is a kettle, tea, coffee, they give 0.5 water daily. Bathrobes, disposable slippers. Breakfasts are good, buffet, enough choice. Cleaning is daily, but we refused, because we only spent the night in the room. We walked around the main sights of Kutaisi, from the hotel to the central square about 20 minutes. We were quite satisfied with the chosen hotel.FromUS$76

The hotel has a great location in the old town center, right by the river and the White Bridge. It's super convenient to walk to the central area for shopping and dining, just a few minutes away. The room wasn't huge, but it was clean, and the front desk staff were really friendly. Breakfast was a bit simple, though.FromUS$93

Гостеприимный хозяин, ухожена территория. Два бассейна детский и большой. На территории множество качелей, ландшафтный дизайн. В номере был джакузи, в рабочем состоянии: бурлилка, подсветка.
Расположение на окраине города, но такси по 4-6 лари решало вопрос.единственно, что огорчало : поломка на линии и полдня не было электричество, но данный инцидент не испортил общего положительного впечатления.FromUS$43

This hotel is quite exquisite and exceeded my expectations. It's in a great location, right in the city center, within walking distance to several highly-rated restaurants, and there's a park not far away.

The hotel should be in the most lively area of Kutaisi. The hotel door is not big but can be found. The triple room space will be enough, but the restaurant for breakfast is quite literary.FromUS$66
