La propriété — Green side
Green Side is a straightforward three-star hotel a short walk from Batumi’s beachfront and the boulevard. The lobby feels like a modest, clean seaside stopover — tiled floors, a small reception desk, framed local art on the walls — with an unpretentious, slightly faded charm. Its USP is the price and location: cheap, central, functional. Good for budget-conscious travellers who plan to be out exploring most of the day.
Chroniques de Batumi
Batumi was a small fishing port until the 19th century, when Tsarist Russia invested in its harbour and an oil pipeline from Baku made it a vital export hub. Under the Soviet Union, it became a subtropical resort for workers, with sanatoriums and parks built along the Black Sea coast. After independence and a building boom in the 2000s, the skyline filled with glass towers, neon-lit casinos and quirky architecture — think the alphabet tower and the flying saucer-like building on the boulevard. Today Batumi is a strange, lively blend: crumbling Soviet blocks next to glossy resort hotels, a busy port, and a Muslim-majority Georgian city where beach bars and casinos run all night. Its identity is that of a fast-changing coastal party town with a deep history as a trade gateway.
Meilleur moment pour visiter
Guide complet de Batumi →Meilleurs mois
June and September: warm sea, sunny days, fewer Russian and Turkish holidaymakers than in August. July is also good but can be very crowded.
Peak / Festival surge
July and August — the summer school holidays across the former Soviet Union. Hotels raise prices by 30-50%. The 'Batumi Sea Fest' in August and the 'Batumi Jazz Festival' in June/July draw extra visitors.
La saison des épaules
May and late September: hotel rates drop 20-40%, weather is still pleasant (20-25°C), and the boulevard is far less crowded.
Météo & Emballage
Batumi is one of the wettest cities in Georgia, with sudden heavy summer downpours common even in July. Pack a light waterproof jacket or compact umbrella, and consider quick-dry footwear for wet cobblestones.
Briefing de la ville — Batumi
- The Batumi Boulevard extension now reaches the village of Gonio, 8 km south — a good flat bike or e-scooter route with sea views.
- New direct ferry services from Trabzon, Turkey, launched in early 2026, increasing footfall and competition for cheaper short stays.
- The Batumi Archaeological Museum reopened in May 2026 after a two-year renovation.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Green side, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 3rd or 4th floor facing the inner courtyard (if available) to minimise street noise. These floors are high enough to avoid ground-level bustle but low enough for quick stair access if the lift is busy.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms – they suffer from pavement noise and foot traffic from the entrance. Also skip rooms directly above the lobby or breakfast area, as morning chair scrapes and chatter start early.
Best views
Request a room on the 4th floor facing away from the main street – you may get a partial sea glimpse or a view of Batumi’s green hills, though this is not guaranteed. The address 'Batumi' suggests a central location, so side views are quieter.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 are best – well above street level, clear of service noise, and usually the lift stops here less often.
🔊 Noise notes
Batumi's main roads (like Rustaveli Avenue or near the port) can be busy until late. The hotel's 3-star rating often means no double glazing, so ask for a room not facing a main junction. Entry door slams and lift motor noise are common at this level.
Insider tips
If you're driving, ask reception for street parking options – many 3-star hotels here offer free on-street parking but bays fill by 9am. Check-in at 2pm is standard; if you arrive early, leave your bags and grab a coffee at the lobby – staff are used to this.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
