Bodbe Hotel — Hotel in Kakheti, Georgia

In short

Bodbe Hotel is a 132-room property in Kakheti, close to the hilltop town of Sighnaghi and the historic Bodbe Monastery. The hotel describes itself as a five-star retreat built on the site of a former Soviet-era tourist base, now reworked with rustic-modern interiors, several restaurants and bars, a spa with indoor and outdoor pools, and function space for conferences and weddings. Rooms and suites are arranged to make the most of views over the Alazani Valley and the Caucasus Mountains.

The building and its history

According to the hotel, the site was previously a popular tourist base from the Soviet period. The hotel says this older structure has been “thoughtfully reimagined” into a contemporary hospitality property that still draws on Kakheti’s local building traditions, such as wood accents and rustic materials, while adding modern infrastructure and guest facilities. No architect’s name, construction date or opening date for the current hotel is given on the official website.

• Soviet era: the building operates as a tourist base, according to the hotel.
• Later period: the property is redeveloped and reopens as Bodbe Hotel, combining its original footprint with new rooms, restaurants, spa and event facilities (exact date not stated by the hotel).
