Out of the 5 ski resorts in Georgia, Bakuriani is among the most popular ones, given its relatively short distance from Tbilisi and Kutaisi, especially if compared with Gudauri, the largest ski resort in the country. In this post, I will show you where to stay in Bakuriani, with a selection of the best Bakuriani hotels and other accommodation that will suit different budgets, including the new Orbi Bakuriani.

I have a couple of favourite hotels in Bakuriani, out of which Bakuriani Inn is my top choice, given the facilities that include a swimming pool.

In the past few years, there has been an increase in the number of hotels in Bakuriani and this year the ski resort is booming. If you have a few days, your stay in Bakuriani should be combined with a day trip to nearby Borjomi, home to the most famous water in Georgia and a popular resort since the times of the Russian Empire. The Borjomi-Bakuriani train ride is also highly recommended.
