Best hotels in Kazbegi

Stepantsminda at the foot of the mountain — a room facing Gergeti

Kazbegi — officially Stepantsminda — sits at the northern end of the Military Highway, two and a half to three hours from Tbilisi, facing the summit of Kazbek. Most people come for a day and miss the point of the place: the morning before the buses arrive, and sunset on Gergeti. Accommodation splits between simple guesthouses in the centre and hotels built around the view. Use the live map below for photos, prices and real-time availability.

Best areas to stay

Central Stepantsminda

The square, the restaurants, the marshrutka stop and the jeeps up to Gergeti. Easiest without a car, and where most guesthouses are.

Gergeti village

Across the river, higher and quieter, at the start of the trail to the church. Good if you set off on the trek early.

The view hotels

Hotels deliberately placed facing Kazbek and Gergeti Trinity. More expensive — and the window is exactly why.

Booking tips

A night in Kazbegi is worth far more than a day trip — the morning in the village, before the tourists arrive, is the real moment.
Check which way the room faces. The price gap between a summit view and no view is usually small; the gap in experience is not.
In winter the Military Highway can close temporarily in storms. Do not book a flight for the next morning.
July, August and weekends fill up. Book ahead, especially for the view hotels.
