Hotel Monarch is our Best Value pick for Batumi. It suits couples and families who want to walk to Europe Square, the Old Town and the beach, and who like friendly service. Family rooms are listed.
Drivers benefit from the free parking listed by the property, which is not always easy to find in a central area.
Skip it if bathroom condition is a deal breaker. Some guests report sewage smells from drains and showers that leak water onto the floor. That is a specific complaint worth checking in recent reviews.
Location and getting around
The address is Akhmed Melashvili Street 37, in the Old Boulevard area. The location score is 9.8 out of 10, the strongest number in the hotel's record.
By our straight-line estimates, Batumi Mosque is 0.6 km away, about 8 minutes on foot, and the Alphabetic Tower is 0.7 km, about 9 minutes. Guests also say Europe Square, the Old Town and the beach are within walking distance.
The Batumi Botanical Garden is a different matter. At 8.3 km, roughly 104 minutes on foot, it is far, and you will need public transport or a taxi.
What guests say
The score is 9.4 from 1,660 reviews, which put it joint second of 12 eligible properties in our sample. That is a high score from a large pool of guests.
Location is the most common praise. Staff come next: guests describe a friendly, attentive team who help with luggage and give a warm welcome.
The complaint is the bathrooms. Some guests mention persistent sewage smells from drains and showers that leak onto the floor. Ask the hotel about it, or request another room if it happens.
