Good day to all!
I don't understand why everyone is hooked on the location of the Griffin. If you do take a room, change it with a view of the main entrance so as not to look at the trash. Stock up on earplugs, it feels like everyone is in the same room without walls. The restaurant is attached to hotels with annoying visitors. My girlfriend and I complained to the guard about one shaggy guy who wouldn't let us through. The guard said they were regular customers. So they can glue us?
There are hotels nearby with a lower price and better service! I do not recommend it!

We rested at this hotel in August for 4 days in total, everything around is beautiful, undoubtedly, the lights were turned off like everywhere else in Abkhazia, in principle, but very briefly. The hotel is normal, only an extra place for the child was a cot, but these are small things.I would like to mention the administrator, a young friendly man, I do not know his name, but if he reads my review, he will surely recognize himself.So, our suitcase broke, the handle fell off, my husband says if he had at least some kind of tool with him, he would try to fix it.I suggested contacting the receptionist at the reception, and ..... lo and behold, we found a screwdriver, this man did not wave us off, but went to look for it and found it.Further, our troubles did not end and the child caught rotovirus.So, on occasion, I let this administrator know about it, as a result, he offered us a doctor, we refused, said that we would try to cope on our own.He asked how our child was doing, was interested and the next day offered help.I want to tell him, if he reads my review, thank you so much for your humanity, to always remain so attentive to your guests, I send you greetings and I want to say that we arrived normally, thank you very much

We were vacationing with our family in Gryphon. Apart from the location, nothing good. There is no Internet, everyone is sitting on the stairs, near the routers. When they told the director of this hotel about it, he was rude, as if he was stuck in the 90s. The shower room is mildewed, the doors don't close, it's scary to touch.
You can stay in this hotel for a couple of days, no more.

Great location, cozy clean rooms. They clean it every day. The room has a kettle, refrigerator, hairdryer, glasses, water jug. There is a cooler on the 1st floor, there is a good restaurant with a variety of cuisine, Of the small disadvantages, not very good sound insulation can be noted, the hotel has a fairly steep staircase (it is difficult for elderly people to climb) and there is a cafe with very loud music next to the hotel. However, by midnight, they seem to turn off (maybe we were just lucky, they were out of season).

It is necessary to update mattresses, bedspreads, plumbing. Put a cooler with hot water on each floor-the stairs are very steep-you don't run for water. And it's very dark in the rooms.

We had a rest from 04.06.24 to 11.06.24. I booked the room in January, comfort. I was in Abasha earlier and saw a Griffin. I liked the place. Upon arrival, there was confusion with tourists from the travel agency and we were accommodated in a suite. Let it be the 4th floor, but there are only 3 stairs. A little steep, but even with my back it turned out not to be a problem. Because the room at the end of the corridor neighbors did not hear at all. If the music gets in the way in the evening, then you close the balcony and silence. The view is awesome, one minus:If you want to sit on the balcony with coffee, come out early. The south side, the sun is scorching. But in the evening it's just fine. The room was cleaned every day, linen every 3 days. Of course, there is also a shower with blackness in the corners, the walls are not wiped. Well, 3 stars. It is strange that there is no ventilation in the bathroom, not any. I didn't find it. But it didn't bother me much. All the frames and doors in the hotel are wooden, the doors to the bedroom are skewed due to humidity. They close, but they scratch on the laminate. We had dinner in the restaurant once, the price tag is higher than in the cafe nearby, but the dishes are cooked more exquisitely, or something.Salads are not served in cafes. Everything is delicious and the portions are large. We took an e-turk with us, because I read about the thermopot. So there were no problems with coffee or tea. There were no declared ants or other insects. One bug got knocked up, and ran around the rooms for two evenings, was caught and released. Otherwise, everything is fine. My husband is categorical:Next time, just the Griffin

I'll tell you right away why I gave it 4 stars. The first is the stairs and the lack of an elevator. The stairs are very steep, going up to the 4th floor with a suitcase on it - this is another quest. Secondly, the room was not cleaned very well in some places. But, everything was quickly corrected after contacting the reception.
And now, about the good things. We liked the hotel, the suite is two-room. A double bed and a sofa are a full-fledged sleeping place. There is a boiler in the bathroom, hot water around the clock, electric heaters hang on the walls. We turned them off, it was very warm. The room has a huge balcony with stunning views. The room has a refrigerator, glasses, mugs, a corkscrew. There is little in the bathroom, shampoo, shower gel. The garbage was cleaned every day. The comments were responded to quickly, by polite and good-natured staff.
The location of the hotel is excellent. A river runs under the balcony, a little further - a waterfall, palm trees all around. It's beautiful. And all this for relatively little money. A cooler with warm water is on the ground floor, which is not very convenient, since then it is extremely inconvenient to walk up the steep stairs to the room with mugs of hot water. If possible, I would advise to have a cooler with hot and cold water on each floor. That would be a good plus.
There is a restaurant on the ground floor. We had breakfast there every day. Everything is very tasty, the waitresses are very nice ladies.
The criterion of any hotel or hotel for me is whether I would have returned here or not. I would love to come back here. I liked everything, I liked everything. Thanks

The Griffin is a nice hotel, located in a very convenient location. If the room has a balcony, and all rooms have spacious balconies, then also with a view of the central street and the New Athos Monastery 👍🏼 But you need to be prepared that every day the traffic police will use a megaphone to disperse improperly parked cars, and this happens often, but during the day. But if the rooms are on the back, north side of the hotel, then in the distance the view will be crowned by the fortress of Anakopia, and right behind the fence there will be a garbage truck parking lot😧 But all the sights are within walking distance from the hotel: a 2-minute walk to the waterfall, a 5-minute walk to the monastery along a steep dirt road, bypassing 12 paths.
The hotel has a wonderful relaxation area on the roof👍🏼 A good restaurant, with a delicious menu and good breakfasts, BUT they smoke in it🧐 and at dinner, you can smoke thoroughly😥
The most important drawback of the hotel is its highlight - it is all made of glued beams🤔It looks great and is made of very high quality and high-quality material, BUT this technology has a wild drawback - a complete lack of sound insulation. If you are a light sleeper, or on the contrary, you are actively resting late, or even watching TV, then this will be a torment. The audibility is such that you can always hear what they say in the neighboring rooms, how they go and where...
The rooms are not particularly spacious, they have a mini fridge, a plate, two glasses and a shelf above the bed, against which you beat your head😀There is no kettle, the cooler is only on the 1st floor at the reception, or you have to ask for boiling water in the restaurant. There are enough outlets, but not one in the hallway for drying shoes. You can see the corridor through the doors. The TVs are old, small, but they read USB AVI (except MKV), there is an HDMI input... The bathroom has a shower cabin of small dimensions with all the resulting inconveniences for oversized people... If you do not hurry, there is enough storage heater for three people to swim. But it's a little cramped to live with three people in a room. There is a spacious guest parking in the courtyard of the hotel and there is a barbecue.
There is also a very, very steep staircase in the hotel. It's scary to go down for the first two days, then it's easier.

The hotel is really located in a convenient location, within walking distance of all the sights of New Athos, although it's a long way to the beach! The nature is amazing, a very decent entrance group! The rooms are double, the bed and towels are mismatched, the towels are Sooo hard, the pillows are made of piled sintepon! The staff doesn't seem to care about you, as they write on their website, there is no smell of hospitality! Rude waitresses work in the restaurant, with dissatisfied faces all the time, half of the dishes are not on the menu, and those that are not tasty!!! So I advise you to eat somewhere else! By the way, the prices here are not cheap either!

Friends, if you are going to Abkhazia, then try the local cuisine, it is excellent. A special, HUGE THANK YOU, I would like to say to the waiter Angelina!!!! During the rest and meals in the restaurant, they asked for advice on national cuisine. Everything she advised tasted excellent, tasted great and matched the drink perfectly!!! Angelina, a person who understands and tries to help! Lamb and pork kebab, on 5++++ , salad "Russian", above all praise, Angelina's advice, about Abkhazian vodka, grape, combined with grilled cheese, is on top!!! Kharcho soup, made of mutton, the best possible!!! Coffee, according to the oriental, this aroma makes you wake up in the morning and enjoy your rest, surrounded by mountains, the sea and the people who surround you!!!
Desserts, a separate question)) and they are excellent and bake right there))Thank you very much for your hospitality)) YOU ARE THE BEST!!!

It is perfectly located. The roof terrace with tables and tables is comfortable and has beautiful views. The rooms are already a bit battered. A very steep staircase, a hotel without an elevator, be careful with the 3-4 floor, if you don't want to climb up every time))). The owners of the hotel are kindly requested not to be greedy and buy kettles in the rooms or at least put them on the floors. Now there is only one (!) cooler for the entire hotel on the ground floor. A restaurant with an inadequate price tag. There is a cafe nearby with much more pleasant prices and delicious local food. In general, the hotel is good for young people and companies. I think it's not very suitable for families with children (in a cafe nearby, Music rumbles until 23.00, the repertoire is pop, sometimes wild).

The food is not bad, but the water is different, so be prepared that it will not be delicious. And since it 's everywhere . The hotel is conveniently located, all the sights and the sea are within walking distance. There is no service, this is not Turkey, but the staff is friendly. Room cleaning is a change of linen and that's it. For whom it is fundamentally a big minus then. The hotel is wooden , so you can hear everything . But after 12, everything closes, and you won't hear anything from the street.the neighbors also got caught all quiet, only the creaking from walking around the room. There is a super terrace at the top, I did not find anyone who could boast of such a thing. I recommend the hotel , but there is something to strive for .at the end of the rest, I poisoned myself with soup in the cafe opposite, but the overall impression did not spoil.

People with orthopedic problems will experience discomfort. Low sound insulation, we listened to the night sounds of neighbors, the partner was quick to shoot, quickly calmed down, so we were lucky. Red ants were crawling in the room. Customers in the cafe smoke, even in front of ladies and children. Despite the fact that the waitresses are wonderful, they do not make a remark to smokers until they pay attention to it.

I rested from 04.10 to 12.10.23. The photo shows views from the roof terrace and from the rooms in both directions. It turned out that for several days I lived in a room with a view of the mountain, and then with a view of the river and the monastery (so the reservation developed). Of course, the view of the monastery is just a fairy tale and a waking dream. In general, all the reviews about errors are fair: yes, audibility, yes, music from the restaurant until 23:00, yes, cleaning is not up to sterility. But all this is offset by the magical beauty of nature, the friendly attitude of literally every employee of the hotel and the exact, impeccable fulfillment of obligations. When I asked to wash my clothes (300 rubles. service) and dry them by a certain time, the maid did everything without question. When she asked me to move things from room to room without me (she was on an excursion), please, we did everything.
This is a very friendly hotel, I recommend it to all unbiased people. It may be a little noisy with young children, but adults are very comfortable and pleasant here.

An excellent hotel from the upper terrace of which you can see the very waterfall, which is located a 7-minute walk from it (if you do not stop at the numerous shops with souvenirs, food and spices along the way). The hotel building is new. Completely made of timber, covered with dark paint on the outside and white on the inside. But the tree view is preserved. The room cleaning is excellent. The staff is helpful and sociable. The owner of the hotel (sociable) was present with us every day. I often sat at the reception, even at night. He helped us out one night in an emergency (he took us to the hospital with a child in a private car). For which special thanks to him and many thanks 🤝

The opinion is ambiguous.
The room itself is clean, but the towels have holes.
The room is pleasant, bright, fresh, but there are wires and pipes hanging everywhere + a view from the window to some part of the household.
We paid extra for an extra bed. They arrived quickly, but with a dirty pillow and a sheet. It was good to have my own bed linen, because there is no elevator in the hotel. The steps are very steep. At 11 p.m., I no longer had the strength to walk and prove something. This cot creaked terribly, the whole family woke up from every movement of the child.
I was pleased with the WiFi, but also intermittently. I'm fishing here, I'm not fishing here.
Hot water through a water heater, the latter was washed in invigorating water.
Parking is fenced right outside the hotel.
