Appart Jiqia Residence Overview
I just stayed at the Appart Jiqia Residence in Tbilisi and honestly it feels like a hidden gem rather than a typical hotel spot. Arriving in the early afternoon, I was greeted by a friendly front‑desk clerk who already knew my name—and my apartment number, 98d—because the building’s system is pretty slick. Check‑in was a breeze: a quick scan of my passport, a hand‑written keycard, and a warm “Enjoy your stay!” That sort of personal touch is something you rarely get in a chain. The reception area has a small café corner where you can grab a cappuccino while you sort out your luggage; the barista knows the menu by heart and even recommends the best pastry in the city—my go‑to is the almond-filled “khachapuri” they make on the fly.
The apartment itself is a little more like a home than a hotel room. The 18th‑floor view is spectacular; from the balcony you can see the city’s rooftops stretching out to the distant hills—sunset there is a real treat, especially when the sky turns that soft amber everyone talks about. Inside, the décor is modern but cozy: a plush sofa, a flat‑screen TV with a decent library of streaming services, and a kitchenette that’s surprisingly well-equipped—there’s a full-sized fridge, a mini‑oven, and even a coffee maker that whirs softly in the morning. The bathroom is spacious, with a glass‑shower enclosure that lets you enjoy the city’s skyline even when you’re just fixing your hair. The only thing I’d tweak is that the Wi‑Fi sometimes hiccups during the peak hours, but the staff is quick to reset the router if you ping them.
Outside the building, the neighborhood feels like a slice of Tbilisi that locals love but tourists often miss. Ana Politkovskaia Street is lined with old‑world cafés and a few boutique shops that sell everything from handmade scarves to vintage vinyl. I stopped by “Sukhum” on the corner—it’s a tiny tea house with a view of the old city walls, and the chai there is the stuff of legends. Parking is a bit of a hustle; there’s a communal underground lot but it fills up by noon, so if you’re driving, it’s worth calling ahead. Noise-wise, the street traffic is noticeable, especially on weekday mornings, but the building’s soundproofing keeps your apartment relatively quiet. I did notice that the windows are a bit drafty on very windy days, so I kept the curtains open as a windbreak.
Overall, the Appart Jiqia Residence feels like a well‑kept secret that offers the comfort and convenience of a 4‑star stay with the charm of a local home. If you’re looking to explore Saburtalo, you’re right in the middle of the action—just a short walk to the metro line and a quick ride to the city center. It’s a solid choice for anyone who wants a place that feels like less of a hotel and more of a home base.

Wonderful – Nastássia from Georgia – September 23, 2024 (9/10)
Хороший, достаточно новый дом, рядом метро и большой магазин. Удобная, светлая квартира, есть вся посуда и необходимая техника для проживания, отличный вид из окна.
What could be improved: Пол был не помыт, постельное белье не подходило по размеру кровати и явно не было поменяно после предыдущих жильцов. Хорошо, что в шкафу был дополнительный чистый комплект.Exceptional – Кирилл from Belarus – September 5, 2024 (10/10)
