Location of the investment project –hotel in Georgia: survey of Gurjaani

Gurjaani is located in the Alazani valley, between two cities Telavi and Signakhi, 122 km to the East of Tbilisi. Approximately 10 000 people live in the village.

Gurjaani municipality is considered the most wine-producing in Georgia; here all basic sorts of grapes are cultivated: Akhasheni, Mukuzani, Vazisubani, Rkatsiteli, Mtsvane, Saperavi, and many other. A special attention should be paid to this region particularly now; it is very attractive from the point of “wine tourism”. Also, in 2020 The Agency of National Tourism of Georgia declared the start of the project “Wine Road”, which with a 100% probability will include promotion and acquaintance with Gurjaani municipality. More than 20 wine factories operate in the region, 4of them immediately in Gurjaani. Apart from wine factories, there are also canning, spirit and brick factories.

The region specializing in winery is being actively discussed in Georgia and around the world. In October Gurjaani for 3 years in a row holds the festival Gurjaani Wine Festival, where wine makers from all over Georgia present their products. Besides wine, here you may find chacha and other spirits produced under family recipes.

The municipality also embraces a great number of historical sites (even memorials of V – VI centuries), and many temples. The most famous ones:

temple Kvelatsminda (VIII century) – the only two-dome temple in Georgia;

• monastery Vachnadziani (VIII century);
• temple Kvavis (VIII – XI century)
• temple in Zegaani;
• temple of St. Sab in Kardanakhi;
• temple Sanagire in Vazisubani.

Also, immediately in Gurjaani there is a famous spa-mud resort Akhtala. Active mud volcanoes can be seen here; methane, mineral waters and biologically active elements are produced during their eruption. Volcanic mud is used to treat musculoskeletal system, peripheral nervous system, and gynecological disorders.

The climate of the region is subtropical, with a mild snowless winter and air temperature seldom falling below 1°. Summer is very warm – the average temperature in August is 24 °С. Humidity in Gurjaani is lower than in the West Georgia; precipitation is around 750 mm yearly.

Description of the land area for a hotel in Gurjaani

The land area presented for sale at the auction is located directly within the city borders. Adjacent to it is the factory “Gruzvinprom” established as early as in 1929. Every day the factory processes approximately 8 000 tons of grapes and produces wine: red of brands “Mukuzani”, “Saperavi”, “Alaznis Veli”, “Pirosmani”, “Akhasheni”, “Kindzmarauli”, “Odzhaleshi”, “Usakhelauri”, and white — “Tsinandali”, “Vazisubani”, “Gurjaani”, “Pirosmani”, “Alaznis Veli”, “Mtsvane”, “Rkatsiteli”, “Tvishi”, as well as wines from collected sorts of grapes and cognacs. The factory regularly holds excursions and wine tasting.

On the other part of the land area is the Medical Center, and another big winery Kotekhi — Winery of Gurjaani (established in 1976) that is located 400 meters from the lot. Wines produced here: “Tibaani”, “Kindzmarauli”, “Kvareli”, “Mikuziani”, “Tsinandali”, “Kotekhi Saperavi”. Also, in a relative proximity is the winery “ADC Alaverdi” Ltd. (5 km), which produces wine and red dry and semi-sweet, rose dry, semi-dry and semi-sweet wines, strong liqueurs, cognac, and chacha. The company exports its products to Ukraine, Germany, Greece, USA, Kazakhstan, and Korea.

In general, the region comprises a great number of wineries, both large-scale and family-run; vineyards are growing. In a pedestrian walk from the land area (1 km) is the famous park Akhtala, where active mud volcanoes can be seen.

The land area is 9 277 sq.m.; with a two-story building and an asphalted driveway. The building is in poor condition: some windows are absent, a cracked façade (but can be restored).

The land area with structures in Gurjaani, considering its location and continuously growing popularity of wine tourism in Georgia, is reasonable to use for construction of a hotel. The Georgian government also recommends to consider the possibility of building an educational center here.
