A really neat little spot. The staff are wonderful, and even if they don't speak English, they will gladly take you on a tour. ☺️

Η επίσκεψη αξίζει, είναι δωρεάν. Θα δείτε τα μετάλλια που έχουν κερδίσει οι ντόπιοι για την πρώην Σοβιετική Ένωση, τη φανέλα του Τζορτζ Μπεστ και το λάβαρο της Καστοριάς, χωρίς να είναι σαφές πώς έφτασαν εκεί. Το προσωπικό ήταν πολύ ευγενικό και εξυπηρετικό, αν και δεν μιλούσε αγγλικά.

მარტივია საყურადღებო მასალების პოვნა. სპორტის გულშემატკივარს ვურჩევდი აქაურს ეწვიოს, ცოდნა აუცილებლად გამოკვეთს.

A captivating destination with an engaging and friendly lady who eagerly shares stories about prominent Georgian, especially Kutaisi, athletes. Note: If you're not familiar with Georgian or Russian, it's advisable to have a translator with you.

Замечательный музей, где я узнала о спортивных успехах Грузии. На одном из фото даже увидела знакомого, который работал со мной в Госкомспорте Украины и был родом из Грузии. Вход бесплатный, как и в большинство музеев города.

დირექტორმა გვაჩვენა და გაგვაცნო ეს ადგილი და ძალიან დიდი შთაბეჭდილება მოახდინა. უამრავი რამ ვისწავლე. თუ ქუთაისში მოხვდებით, აუცილებლად წადით და თავად აღმოჩნდებით ამ შესანიშნავ ადგილას. ❤️

There are no English translations available, and the staff doesn't speak English either. The explanations are provided only in Russian and Georgian. The receptionist seemed irritated by my use of English.

Под огни Кутаиси мы случайно попали в мир спортивных героев. Грузинский колорит в экскурсии был как специей в блюде - неожиданный и бодрящий. Порадовало, что чаевые не нужны, но сувенир из Голландии взломал сердца. Хорошее место для тех, кто хочет ощутить живую историю спорта прямиком с поля и трека.
