Tranquil Town Stay at Oasis Mtskheta

Introduction

There are few places where history and hospitality merge so seamlessly as in the ancient town of Mtskheta, Georgia. Nestled at the confluence of rivers and surrounded by rolling hills, this former capital of the Georgian kingdom offers a calm-yet-vibrant setting for a getaway.
During my recent visit to Georgia, I chose to stay at Oasis Mtskheta, located at Arsukidze Street N20, 3300 Mtskheta, Georgia. From the moment I stepped into its lush garden courtyard, I knew this was more than “just a guesthouse” — it was a restful base to explore, unwind and genuinely connect with Georgian culture.

Over the next few paragraphs I’ll walk you through the experience: the ambience of the guesthouse, rooms and amenities, dining and local food, location and accessibility (with the Google Maps link), nearby sights and activities, why I’d recommend it, travel & booking tips, and a handy FAQ. Let’s dive in.

About the Hotel

Oasis Mtskheta is a warm, guest-house style accommodation rather than a large resort, and that is precisely what gives it its charm. It is owned and run with personal attention, and you’ll immediately sense a welcoming atmosphere. For example, many guest reviews highlight the friendly hosts, tranquil garden space, and excellent location right in Mtskheta’s historic core. (Booking.com)

The building blends into the town — moderate in size, with a garden and terrace area where you can sip tea, read or just watch the evening sky. One guest wrote:

“The location is great. The place is very nice, calm and light. The owner is very responsive, friendly and helpful.” (en.planetofhotels.com)

This property gives you a chance to stay within walking distance of major sights, restaurants and town life — yet retreat quietly at night to your room and a peaceful courtyard.

Rooms and Amenities

The rooms at Oasis Mtskheta are well-equipped for comfort and restful stays. While it’s not hyper-luxurious, the quality and value are what stand out.

Features include:

Free WiFi throughout the property. (Booking.com)
Free private parking on-site (a big plus in the town). (Booking.com)
Shared kitchen facilities for light cooking. (en.planetofhotels.com)
Terrace, garden and quiet communal areas for relaxing. (en.planetofhotels.com)
Air conditioning/heating and private bathrooms. (us.j2ski.com)

I stayed in a double room with a view into the garden. The bed was comfortable, the room clean, and the atmosphere perfectly peaceful after a day of sightseeing. In the early morning I stepped out into the terrace, had a coffee and watched Mtskheta awaken — it’s small moments like this that make travel memorable.

Dining Experience

While Oasis Mtskheta doesn’t boast a large fine-dining restaurant, it offers breakfast and a cozy base for local culinary exploration.

The hosts serve a simple, quality breakfast — fresh bread, cheese, tea/coffee — and recommended nearby cafés for lunch and dinner. In town, I discovered little wine bars serving Georgian wines, small family-run restaurants offering khachapuri, khinkali and vegetable dishes, and a quiet evening stroll to a terrace overlooking the old town.

If you prefer cooking or light dining, the shared kitchen at the guesthouse makes it easy to prepare something simple with local produce. The advantage here: you’re immersed in the local food culture, rather than being tucked away in a big resort.
