I would like to say a huge thank you for the wonderful 4 days of rest in new Athos. The hotel is clean, modern, good air conditioning, sound insulation, location.
We were settled a little earlier than indicated, thanks a lot for that! 3 days on the train with small children, I wanted to go to the room, of course.
The room is modern, the beds are good, not squeaky, the bathroom is well renovated. The clothes dryer on the balcony pleases 😊
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were arranged quite well, varied, delicious, and everything was fresh. With young children, there was always something to eat and there were no problems with tummies. The girls in the kitchen tried very hard to ensure that the dishes were always available.
There is a refrigerator with cold drinks.
A huge plus is the location of the hotel; in a few days we visited all the places of interest, there is a grocery store and souvenir shops nearby ☺️
Room cleaning is good, daily.
Of the cons: the most terrible minus was the linen, towels 😩 for the first time in many years of traveling I come across such dirty, rotten towels 😩 everything is stained, honestly, even it was unpleasant to wipe my feet, it was good that I had my own towels with me. The bed didn't smell, but there were also a few stains 🥺
The Internet generally worked well, except in the evening after 20, it was rebooted periodically.
The refrigerator was not cold until we took it out of the closet. Maybe someone will need this life hack.
We wish the hotel prosperity, careful and regular guests!
Despite the disadvantages, I would like to come back again

We stayed in Abaash for the second time and never regretted it. Cozy, clean and spacious rooms, views of the monastery are just a dream, it's a pleasure to wake up here every morning. It's quiet, you can't hear the noise, loud music from the street, for a relaxing holiday it's the best thing. The food is delicious, moderately varied. This time they only took breakfast. Polite staff. The location is 10/10, within walking distance of all the sights of New Athos, which is good news. The way to the sea is picturesque, through a cypress alley. There is no private beach, but in general you can safely stay in the city, the main thing is to have something to lie on the rocks and where to hide from the sun. At the end of May, the beach was not yet equipped for the season, so there are no sun beds/umbrellas to be found. But something was actively being built in the neighborhood, so I think there will be sheds and rentals in the season.
In general, we will return here with pleasure for a high-quality vacation, good service and just for a welcoming atmosphere.

"Abaash Hotel" in New Athos is a good-class hotel by Abkhazian standards. We stayed there for two weeks: one week in the grand suite + one week in the presidential suite.
Positive:
- location of the hotel (within walking distance of the waterfall, Simon Kananita Temple, lake and Psyrtskha railway station, Novoafon monastery, Novoafon cave, Anakopian fortress, Simon Kananita grotto);
- there is no passing highway nearby (for example, in a similar-level hotel "Afon Black Sea Resort" noise from the main highway is present under the windows around the clock);
- good level of renovation, new furniture, the hotel is fresh;
- excellent varied and delicious breakfasts (with a slight disadvantage, which is attributed to the cons);
- responsive, friendly and customer-oriented hotel staff;
- there is always a bar with chilled alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks in the lobby of the hotel;
- the view from the huge balcony of the presidential suite is stunning (right at the waterfall and the temple of Simon the Cananite);
- high-quality daily room cleaning.
Minuses:
- in the shower room of the grand suite there is no water seal on the drain, so a strong sewer smell spreads gradually to the entire room; this problem is treated in the only but effective way – cold water turns on in the shower half-heartedly and does not turn off around the clock; at the same time, the smell from the drain does not arise; in other rooms there is no such problem.
- for unknown reasons, breakfasts are always served slightly warm (at room temperature); at first we thought that we just came too late for breakfast and everything had already cooled down, but no, all dishes are taken out of the kitchen already like this; at the same time in numerous containers for storing/distributing side dishes, sausages, scrambled eggs, pancakes, etc.many other dishes are provided with burners for heating, but the kitchen staff does not use them.
Wishes/features (I can not attribute them to the cons):
- I would like to change towels more often than once every 3 days (in other similar hotels of New Athos they change even less often);
- I would like to have more varied dinners at the hotel and with a larger assortment (we never went to lunch);
- the sea is 600-700 meters from the hotel (it is necessary to return to the hotel with a very easy, almost imperceptible ascent); personally, it did not bother us, we walked with pleasure.
General conclusion: the hotel is very good; if we go back to New Athos, we will be happy to book a room at this hotel.
