At
Hotel Tela & Mareli Winery in Telavi, you’re basically sleeping above a working winery. So yes, your first coffee can be chased by a qvevri-aged Saperavi wine and no one will judge you. Set in the heart of Kakheti’s wine capital, the hotel keeps things low-key: comfy rooms with balconies, a rooftop terrace with big Caucasus views, and breakfasts that taste heavenly.
Downstairs, Mareli Winery crafts small-batch wines the old Georgian way - in clay pots buried underground. As you can imagine, tastings feel like a peek into history. It’s the kind of place where you wander out for medieval fortresses and come back to a glass of amber wine on the terrace, wondering why all hotels don’t come with their own cellar.
