Apartment Art Django Old Avlabari

Apartment Art Django Old Avlabari Overview

I landed in Tbilisi just as the summer heat was beginning to settle, and the city felt like a living postcard. The apartment is tucked on 4 Irakli Faghava Street, on the third floor, in a building that’s been there since the Soviet era, but the vibe here feels modern. The check‑in was surprisingly quick—no long queue, just a friendly host who handed me a keycard and a quick rundown of the elevator schedule. I mean, in a big city you’d expect a lot of paperwork, but this place kept it simple and friendly. Parking is a bit of a hustle; there’s a small street lot behind the building, but you have to be ready for a few minutes of searching before you find a spot. It’s worth it though because the street is quiet once the rush of the main square passes.

The apartment itself is a charming mix of old Georgian charm and contemporary flair. As soon as you open the door, the scent of fresh coffee from the kitchen and a faint hint of citrus from the balcony paint a cozy picture. The living area is spacious enough to fit a bed, a couch, and a small dining table, and the walls are decorated with local art—several pieces by a young artist from the nearby Metekhi district that really capture the city’s soul. The kitchen is fully equipped, and I found a few Georgian staples like walnuts and dried apricots in the pantry, which is a nice touch for locals or travelers who want to taste something local without heading out. Noise-wise, the apartment is surprisingly insulated; I could hear the distant traffic but the windows are double‑glazed, so when I’m in bed, it’s almost like a bubble of silence.

Outside, the street is a lively mix of boutiques, cafés, and the occasional street performer. I parked in the alley and walked across a short stretch of cobblestone to the Old Avlabari metro station, which is just a few minutes away. The neighborhood itself is a blend of historic architecture and modern conveniences. I spent an afternoon exploring the nearby Kura River, where the sunset reflected off the old stone bridges—an experience I’ll never forget. For a quick bite, there’s a small café on the corner that serves the best khachapuri in town; the cheese is gooey and the dough is flaky, and the staff even gave me a free cup of tea. If you’re traveling with a car, there’s a smaller, more affordable parking lot on the opposite side of the street, though it’s a bit further from the apartment. Overall, the location is perfect for those who want to immerse themselves in Tbilisi’s culture without missing out on the practicality of everyday travel. I’d recommend staying here if you’re looking for a comfortable, authentic spot that feels like a home away from home, and the price is very reasonable for a 4‑star rating of 9.4. So, pack your camera, bring your curiosity, and you’ll find that this place really does offer a little slice of Tbilisi’s heart.

  Location is exactly in the center. Avlabari metro station and bus station are within 50m distance. There are plenty of restaurants, supermarkets and money exchange nearby.

• Very Good – Adam from Poland – September 28, 2023 (8/10)

  Very good localisation. Close to Subway. Friendly host. Many shops around. Walking distance to te Old Town. I recommend this apartment for 2 couples.
  
  What could be improved: If you put a bottle of wine on the shelf of the fridge door , posibly it will fall down and break. Do not do it.

• Great place to stay for a family – Uraj from Kuwait – May 30, 2023 (8/10)

  We stayed here for 2 nights. The place is as shown in the pictures. We were provided with all basic amenities. Extra pillows, blankets, iron box. The kitchen too was well equipped with salt, pepper, coffee, tea and basic utensils. The property owner gave us the keys and did not bother us until we left.
  
  What could be improved: I suggest to avoid this place in summer as there is only 1 tiny ac in the living room which feels useless. Apart from that every thing was good.

• Comfortable, convenient and affordable – Josip from Croatia – July 30, 2023 (9/10)

  The location is great, within walking distance of the city center. The apartment is very well furnished and has all the facilities a traveler might need. The host was super responsive and helpful. Highly recommended.
  
  What could be improved: The sitting/dining area doesn’t have a window, but there’s AC so not a biggie, especially since you don’t spend much time there anyway.

• Nice apartment – Ambersaijen from Lithuania – May 19, 2023 (9/10)

  First of all – big thanks to the host for organizing our late check in and being so helpful!
  The apartment itself is nice and clean with almost everything you may need (even a mini sewing kit, which came very handy one day). It's not very big, but there's enough space for 3-4 people.
  The location is very close to the subway station and only 10 minutes walk to the old town.
  
  What could be improved: The beds are on the tougher side and a bit noisy.
  And you also probably should keep in mind there's a construction going on nearby, so it's sometimes getting noisy in the morning.

• Fair – Zhanna from Netherlands – September 22, 2024 (5/10)

  There are pretty comfortable beds, very nice service, we could check in a bit earlier.
  
  What could be improved: It has only one air conditioner and it is definitely not enough for two bedrooms, during the summer it can be challenging
  View fr balcony is not really pleasant, basically just painted to another old buildings
  This building has a super weird system with a keys and extra gates to open up, also no elevators
