The Story

Ozon Gudauri was one of the first hotels built in Gudauri in early 2000s. From the very project it was built as a proper ski hotel with all necessary facilities such as ski-depot, huge lobby with the fireplace, bar, cafeteria, sauna etc.

During the 20 years there were several teams running business here, but for sure the last 10 years with Manana Mamulashvili in the head made Ozon a legendary place. Manana was famous for her hospitality, optimism and cheerfulness. She could build a wonderful team of housekeepers and cooks which made Ozon so famous for its coziness and great food.

Gudauri Dacha, the first hostel in Gudauri, was founded 11 years ago next door to Ozon by Ukrainian team. Dacha quickly became the central place for freeriders from all over the world. Apres-ski evenings near the Dacha’s fireplace became one of the main traditions for all the powder hunters whether they were staying in Dacha or in the other places around.

After Manana tragically passed away, Dacha team decided to continue traditions of both places and started big reconstruction of Ozon. It was totally refurbished and opened it doors again for the season 21/22 to become the best hotel for freeriders in Gudauri.

Ozon today is not only a place to stay. It is a home for passionate skiers and snowboarders built around our love to the mountains. Our key concept is all-winter camp with daily activities. We ride together, we eat together, we party together.  And for sure we learn the mountains together: this is the best place to find experts, instructors and guides and to get new skills and knowledge.
