“You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave,” goes the famous 70s song by the Eagles. I wondered if the Georgian hotel version of this hit song lived up to its musical namesake. As I was shown to my room, which was elegant, spacious, wooden and homey, I was not disappointed; you really won’t want to leave your room. “Such a lovely place,” I thought to myself as the owner left, the door closed, and I was alone to enjoy my temporary residence.

Included with all rooms is a modern, private en suite bathroom with a shower which could knock you down if you aren’t careful. There is a large, shared kitchen with an arsenal of quality cooking equipment at your disposal. Or, should you wish to experience local cuisine, there are many cafes and restaurants within walking distance of the property.

The hotel situated is a short 10-minute walk to the city center, and 30 minutes from Bagrati Cathedral. Kutaisi Train Station is 600 m away, and Kutaisi International Airport is 21 km from the property.

Kutaisi Hotel California has 5 rooms. 1 family room for 4 people, 1 triple room, 1 double room and 2 twin rooms.
