BWH Hotels just put Georgia (the country) on the promo map: book and stay Jul 16 – Oct 16, 2026 at participating Best Western brands across Tbilisi, Batumi, and Kutaisi, get up to 20% off the flexible rate plus 2,000 Best Western Rewards points per stay. Booking and stay windows are aligned—tight window, but useful if you’re doing Caucasus / Black Sea in peak season.

Key Dates
- Book & Stay: Jul 16 – Oct 16, 2026 (inclusive)
- Channels: bestwestern.com, BW App, call centre, hotel direct
- Earn unit: 2,000 BWR points per stay (not per night)
How the Stack Works
Rate side: up to 20% off
Discount sits on top of the hotel’s flexible rate; the “up to 20%” is a cap. In practice, BW Premier Tbilisi Old Town tends to land 15-18%, while BW Plus Batumi seaside front often hits the full 20% during peak weeks.
Points side: 2,000 per stay
The 2,000 stacks with BWR base earn (points per $ on room rate) and with other live BWR promos (e.g. tier multipliers, Q3 regional stay-N-get-N). But it’s per stay, not per night—a 3-night single-stay books as 1 × 2,000, no doubling for length.
Participating Brands & Cities
Five BW tiers are in-play: Best Western, Best Western Plus, Best Western Premier, Glō, Aiden. Distribution is Tbilisi-heavy, with Batumi and Kutaisi filling out the transit/beach legs.
| City | Representative Participating Hotels | Positioning |
|---|---|---|
| Tbilisi | BW Premier (Old Town / Rustaveli axis); BW Plus; Glō Tbilisi | Near cable car, sulphur baths, Dry Bridge—Premier Old Town sits on the Georgian Wine Route partner list |
| Batumi | BW Plus / standard tier; seafront bias | Black Sea high season (Jul-Sep) baseline is steep; 20% off bites deeper here |
| Kutaisi | Best Western / Glō | Budget airline (incl some Middle East connectors) layover staple; one stay = 2,000 points for a transit night |
Where People Trip
- OTA prepaids don’t qualify: Booking.com / Expedia prepaids are non-earning under BWR rules and won’t fire the 2,000. Book via bestwestern.com or BW App.
- Per stay, not per night: 4 nights = 1 stay = 2,000. Two BW stays (even same city, different properties) = 4,000. “Brand hop without re-staying” is a known micro-move if you’re points-chasing, but run the numbers—don’t break a stay just for 2,000.
- CXL policy follows the rate: the 20%-off bucket often leans non-refundable or tight-cancel. Peak-season Batumi has heavier non-ref ratios—check before paying.
Other BWR Moves Worth Knowing
- BWH ran mirror “20% off + 2k” promos in Romania and Bulgaria in July 2026—if you’re doing Caucasus → Balkans (Tbilisi → Yerevan → Bucharest → Sofia), you can string four BW markets on similar terms.
- BWR Silver+ gets you welcome water / late checkout at select BW Europe/Africa properties; the Tbilisi Premier honours this fairly consistently—don’t forget to attach your member number at booking.
How to Book Clean
- Join Best Western Rewards (free, 30 sec)—2,000 and base earn both ride on the member number.
- Lock which Georgia nights fall in Jul 16–Oct 16; prioritise Tbilisi Old Town (Wine Route) or Batumi seafront.
- Search on bestwestern.com / BW App, switch rate to the promo bucket (usually prefixed “Georgia 20% Off”), confirm CXL policy.
- If chasing the 2,000 cap, “Tbilisi Premier 2N + Batumi Plus 2N” = 2 stays = 4,000; run the price diff first—2,000 points ≈ small-value, don’t over-engineer.
- Check BWR account 3-5 days post-stay; 2,000 typically posts within a week of checkout. If missing, verify stay wasn’t OTA-tagged.
