A Georgia trip with a pet starts with lodging: not every hotel formally accepts animals, and rules vary widely — from free stays in boutiques to a strict 10 kg cap at chain properties. Before booking, estimate costs in our travel budget calculator, browse the AlpacaBag route library, and if you combine Tbilisi with Batumi, read our multi-city vacation guide.
Book flights to Tbilisi or Batumi, a pet-friendly hotel with your animal noted in the reservation, travel insurance for Georgia, and an eSIM for navigation when walking the city with your dog. A walking tour of Tbilisi or Batumi helps you pick the right neighborhood on day one.

Rules and industry standards
When booking a pet-friendly hotel in Georgia, keep a few industry norms in mind. Most properties charge an extra daily fee for staying with a pet — typically around 10% of the standard nightly rate. Large international chains such as Holiday Inn or standard Ibis often enforce strict weight limits.
Small boutique owners are often dog lovers themselves, which means more flexible terms — no surcharge and permission to leave a pet in the room during excursions. For tipping in Georgian restaurants, see our tipping guide by country; for solo lodging safety, read our safe accommodation guide. Free walks with your dog help save money — see free things to do in any city.
- Confirm pet access: not all hotels allow animals in restaurants or spa areas.
- Pack a leash, bowls, familiar food, and a vaccination passport.
- For Tbilisi–Batumi transfers, compare intercity bus or minivan with car rental.

FAQ
Do I need to notify the hotel about my pet when booking?
Yes — almost all pet-friendly hotels in Tbilisi and Batumi ask you to declare your animal at booking or in the reservation notes. That way you avoid a refusal at check-in and learn the exact fee and weight limits upfront.
How much is the typical pet surcharge in Georgia?
At most hotels it is about 10% of the nightly room rate per day with a pet. Boutique options like Hotel Tbilisi Tales may charge nothing; Hilton or Marriott chains often apply a fixed cleaning fee.
Can I leave my dog alone in the room during an excursion?
It depends on the property: Hotel Tbilisi Tales, Stamba, and several boutiques allow it. Chain hotels are stricter — confirm at check-in. For walks without your pet, see our free city activities guide.
How do I combine Tbilisi and Batumi with a dog in one trip?
A practical split is 3–4 days in the capital and 3–4 by the sea: about 5–6 hours by car or an overnight train between cities. Ready-made plans for both cities are in the AlpacaBag route library and SEO routes below.
