3-Star Hotels in Batumi — What to Expect
Batumi sits on the Black Sea coast of Adjara, an autonomous region of Georgia known for its mountains, tea, and a coastal strip that doubled in size during a 2009–2014 building boom. The 7 km seaside Boulevard, the Alphabet Tower, and the Ali & Nino moving sculpture mark the modern centre, while the Old Town (Evropas moedani) keeps the city's Ottoman and Georgian heritage. Batumi International Airport (BUS) is 2 km south of the centre — one of the closest airport-to-city ratios in Europe — making transfers cheap and fast.
We list 81 hotels in Batumi, from beachfront 5-stars like the Hilton, Le Méridien, and Sheraton to family-run boutiques in the Old Town. Most visitors stay either on the Boulevard for sea views and casinos, or in the Old Town for restaurants and quieter nights. The high season runs June–September with sea temperatures of 23–26 °C; May and October are cheaper and warm enough for the coast. Outside summer, ski resorts at Goderdzi and Bakhmaro are 2–3 hours away.
The Georgian lari (₾) is the local currency. Cards work in most hotels and restaurants; smaller cafés and taxis often prefer cash. Visa-free entry for 98 nationalities allows one-year stays. Free cancellation is available on most Batumi rooms when you book through Hotevi.
