It's a bit difficult to find when following the directions of Google maps. I recommend to take the road from the south via Choni/Matkhoji.

Even when it was obviously almost off-season with less guests during our stay, the stuff was really friendly and prepared us a wonderful dinner and a breakfast which didn't miss anything on the table. The hotel is surrounded by a very nice and green garden which gave the stay a special peaceful character.

the owner and stuff were all really kind and helpful at all times. You can message the owner when you’re out for activities and he will answer, suggest and help gladly. The chateau has a very interesting history and located in a beautiful views of mountains and green area. we loved it! thank you!

The breakfast was amazing! Fresh food from the village and big selection to suit any taste. The owner let us try his homebrew alchohol which was very nice. We checked in very late night and he was there kindly waiting for us. The room was preheated on a very cold night which made the sleep comfortable. Rustic and farm house feel from outside with modern and clean clean rooms. Would stay again 100% fantastic value for money.

Unfortunately the pool was empty and not available even though in September it was still hot and humid.

Excellent location, extremely calming, no pretence, friendly and helpful people.

Everything was good, no complaints

Location is just perfect: in the mountains with awesome view. The air is fresh, atmosphere is very quiet and silent. Very nice and friendly stuff. For me, personally, it is important, you can experience the hospitality better. Super delicious food: we ordered dinner and vine, it was amazing.

Non, everything was perfect!

It's the best place to stay in this area (Zeda Gordi - Martvili) and my stay here was fantastic, I even changed my plan and stayed on one more day) 1. Modern with nice design room, where I can find all fasciitis (air conditioner, tv, kettle, fridge). I even had a bath in bathroom! 2. Increadible view from my room on hills, I can lay on the bed and see how clouds go through the hills) it's better that any TV) 3. Chateau has the best location, because it is in very peaceful place with own area, but at the same time very close to the canyon and path to waterfalls. 4. Chateau it self had an interesting long history and the owner can tell you and show grapes plantation, qvevri, different equipments for wine producing. 5. Staff was very friendly and I want to thank so much the owner, who takes me on a tour of chateau and give me to taste handmade wine and cognac! The quality of this product very high, l regret that can't take some bottles with me) 6. Also there is billard, lounge zone, sheeps and pond with trout and swimming pool, so you can find many activities even in the chateau area) I wish the owner that all his plans become a real!! If I will be in this district again I totally stay in this place one more time!!

Nothing, it was the perfect place for us

The Chateau Chikovani is a good answer to the question, why visit Georgia? A perfect base for visiting the Okatse Canyon and Waterfall (the former in walking distance and the latter is walkable but about an 11 mile round trip). The Duke was very happy to show us around the chateau before we had dinner. The food was excellent, not expensive and there was a very good selection at both breakfast and dinner. We had initially only booked one night here, but ended up staying another and when our flight was cancelled, they offered us help and let us finish breakfast even after breakfast was supposed to have finished whilst we sorted things out. The room itself was modern, clean and had a lovely view out over the hills and the garden. I wholeheartedly recommend the Chateau Chikovani.

This could have been a wonderful place: it has a large plot of land, an old garden, two large villas, and even a pool. But in reality, the rooms are in bad condition, with squeaky doors and mattresses. The infrastructure is not in a good condition either, we had a room facing two roofs, one of which was regularly splashed by water from old pipes, making it hard to sleep at night. And even though this place is labeled as pet friendly, we had an unpleasant incident with the manager (or at least I think it was him) who tried to prevent us from bringing our pet into the room with the argument that "it might upset other guests". The absurdity of this was underscored by the fact that stray dogs were roaming the grounds and disturbing guests far more than our trained friend, who didn't make a sound. Anyway, we had our pet with us, so this person did nothing but spoil the mood for everyone. And by the way, his attitude was very different depending on who he was talking to: guests who spoke English, German or Russian were treated with the utmost respect, but we (with me being Georgian and speaking Georgian) were not so lucky.

Nice place, once very well maintained and built with love.

We had different expectations after reading the superlative reviews of this place. It's hard to write something negative when the host is kind and trying his best to make guests happy. I would rate the property as 2 star as it's outdated and rooms lack some basic equipment. It has a potential because the surroundings are beautiful, it just needs proper renovation and maintenance (especially the bathrooms). We did not like the breakfast.

The bed was pretty comfortable.
