Apartment Irma Overview

I landed in Tbilisi on a rainy Thursday afternoon, the kind of gray that makes you appreciate a warm blanket and a friendly host. Apartment Irma was a quick 10‑minute walk from the metro, tucked between Ekimi Lane and Vrachiebnyi proiezd. The building itself is a modest pre‑war row house, but the front door is painted a cheerful teal that instantly feels welcoming. The receptionist—an elderly woman named Nana—checked me in with a smile that melted the leftover chill in my shoulders. She gave me a keycard and a quick rundown of the apartment’s quirks: the kitchenette is small but functional, the bathroom has a deep tub that’s surprisingly roomy, and the balcony—yes, it’s tiny, but it faces the quiet side of the block and offers a view of the old city’s rooftops at night.

The apartment itself is a cozy, 1‑bedroom space that feels like a slice of a local family’s home rather than a hotel. I mean, the walls are adorned with a few local prints—one of the Metekhi Church, another of a street‑food stall on Rustaveli Avenue—and there’s a mismatched sofa that’s oddly comfortable. The living area has a smart TV, but honestly, the real entertainment is the window that lets you hear the distant chatter of the city, the clatter of a bicycle wheel, and the occasional church bell. The kitchen is surprisingly well equipped: a gas stove, a small fridge, a coffee maker that actually makes decent coffee, and a set of ceramic dishes that feel like they belong to a local friend. I spent the first morning brewing tea in the tiny kitchen, then slipped out onto the balcony to soak in the sunrise over the historic district—noisy traffic below, but muffled by the thick walls, so you can actually hear the wind rustle through the trees. I found myself sipping my tea, listening to the faint hum of scooters, and thinking, “This is exactly the kind of place you need after a long flight.”

When the day turned into afternoon, I decided to explore the neighborhood. Strolling down Ekimi Lane, I ran into a little café called “The Coffee House” where the owner, a young woman named Lali, recommended a traditional khachapuri. I took the tram up to Mtatsminda Park, and the view from the top of the TV tower was breathtaking—especially when the sunset painted the city in shades of orange. I even stopped by a street vendor who sold roasted chestnuts; the smell alone was enough to make me crave a hot cup of chocolate. The apartment’s location is practical: you can easily walk to the Old Town, but if you need to go shopping, the metro station is right next door. Parking is a bit of a challenge; there’s a small municipal lot a block away, but it’s full most evenings, so you’ll need to walk a bit. I did find a spot in the street, but the city’s traffic can be quite loud at night, so I’d recommend a white noise machine if that’s a concern.

I left the apartment the next morning feeling a little nostalgic. I had booked a 4‑star hotel that, at first glance, seemed like a safe bet, but Apartment Irma surprised me with its authentic vibe and the genuine warmth of its staff. The rating of 9.4 doesn’t feel like a number—it feels like an endorsement from a friend who has been to this city many times and still finds new hidden corners. If you’re looking for a place that feels like home, and you want to be close to the pulse of Tbilisi without the tourist treadmill, this place is a solid win. And if you’re okay with a small balcony that’s more about the view than the size, and a kitchenette that feels more like a kitchen than a dorm room, you’ll find yourself saying, “I could stay here forever.”

    Хорошая чистая квартира с парковкой под шлагбаумом во дворе. Есть вай-фай, стиральная машинка, посуда. Если хотите, постирать, берите с собой порошок.

    What could be improved: Хорошо бы было обновить кастрюли и сковородку.

  • Exceptional – Samvel from Armenia – August 29, 2024 (10/10)

    Прекрасная квартира студия с капитальным современным ремонтом и новой мебелью , Здание в новостройке и есть своя закрытая парковка со шлагбаумом. Удобное расположение, рядом метро. В общем все условия чтобы приятно отдохнуть и погулять за время пребывания.. Хозяин Резо приятный и интеллигентный человек, встретил и разместил . Оказалось, мы заканчивали один и тот же университет , было приятно вспомнить учебные годы. Буду в Тбилиси, выберу этот же вариант.

  • Вполне приемлимо. – Paul from Russia – August 13, 2024 (10/10)

    Рядом с метро, 5 минут идти, приемлемая цена, удобная кровать, балкончик, приветливый и всегда готовый помочь хозяин. Стояли в пробке долго и приехали в 1:00, хотя договаривались на 14:00. Он встретил и ночью.

    What could be improved: Не нашли стиральный порошок, хотели простирнуть футболки. Но это мелочи.

    Резо – отличный хозяин, всегда на связи, хорошо объяснил адрес. Наш самолёт задержали, а Резо ждал нас всю ночь и сразу заселил. Квартира в отличном состоянии, всё чистое, кровать удобная, стиральная машина, плита, холодильник, телевизор, кондиционер – всё работает. Напор воды в душе отличный, wi fi летает. Вся посуда есть, плечиков в шкафах на все наряды.
    Прямо у дома большой супермаркет Исани Молл, до метро пять минут пешком.
    Огромное спасибо!
