Beautiful Tbilisi on Meskhishvili Turn

Beautiful Tbilisi on Meskhishvili Turn Overview

When I finally stepped off the taxi onto the cobblestone of Meskhishvili Turn, I could almost taste the warm, smoky air that’s been a secret of Tbilisi since the 1800s. The building is a charming four‑star gem, not flashy but full of character—think peeling pastel paint and a tiny ivy creeping up the façade. The lobby feels like a quiet café; a few locals sip black coffee while a soft Georgian lullaby hums from a hidden speaker. Check‑in was surprisingly smooth—no long lines, just a friendly receptionist who asked if I’d like a quick tour of the neighborhood before handing over the key. She mentioned that the nearest metro is a 5‑minute walk, which is handy if you’re planning to hit Rustaveli Avenue later.

The room itself is a small oasis of comfort. The bed is the kind you fall asleep on and wake up feeling like you’ve been hugged. The window faces the rear garden, so instead of the city’s usual buzz, you hear the distant chirping of sparrows and the faint rustle of leaves. There’s a tiny kitchenette with a kettle—perfect for brewing tea or boiling khinkali at 2 a.m. after a late night in Old Town. The bathroom is a clean, bright space; the shower’s water pressure is decent, not the over‑dripping type you find in some hotels. I appreciated the extra towels and the small, locally sourced soap that smelled faintly of rosemary. A subtle critique: the Wi‑Fi is reliable but the speed dips when the city’s radio stations start broadcasting in the evenings.

Getting out of the hotel is a walk through some of the city’s hidden gems. Just a block east, you’ll stumble upon the little art gallery on the corner of Shota Rustaveli and P. Khourashvili Street—great for a spontaneous photo shoot. If you’re craving street food, the vendor on the corner of Meskhishvili Turn and Shio-Mtishkhalava is a must; the grilled cheese sandwiches are melt‑in‑your‑mouth good. For a more relaxed vibe, head to the nearby Kura River promenade; it’s surprisingly quiet right after sunset, and the sunset over the river is a postcard moment. Parking is a mixed bag: the building has a small underground lot, but it’s cramped and you’ll need a permit to park for more than an hour. The noise level at night is moderate—there’s a low hum from traffic and occasional church bells from the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour. Overall, the hotel feels like a local’s favorite hide‑away, offering a blend of comfort, authenticity, and a touch of Georgian charm.

• Pleasant – Dominika from Slovakia – September 30, 2024 (6/10)

  the host was kind and responsive
  
  What could be improved: wifi didn't work, the apartment was extremely humid all the time and smelled, the apartment didn't have enough equipment for such a long stay (6 days)

• Disappointing. Only has one bed. Very narrow space. Uncomfortable bed. Weak stove top – Jordan from Hungary – April 23, 2023 (6/10)

  East self check in process. Compared to other properties in the area for it's price range it is esthetically pleasing, like it's name suggests. Had available parking within the building. At least when we were there.
  
  What could be improved: False advertising! The property is listed as having two separate single beds and one couch bed. In reality there is only one bed that sleeps two. More like a bed and a half size wise. The width of the room is extremely narrow so if you want to use the couch bed it means you can't really move past it to the rest of the apartment. You are locked in. The mattress was extremely uncomfortable. It sinks in with a incline. The stove took forever to heat up and was very weak heat. Took forever to cook food. Hard to tell for sure but we felt like it is located in a shady neighborhood.

• Exceptional – Абдурашитов from Kazakhstan – September 1, 2025 (10/10)

• Wonderful – Lela from Belgium – August 22, 2025 (9/10)

• Exceptional – Натalia from Russia – August 7, 2025 (10/10)

  Понравился район. Тихий спокойный и недалеко от достопримечательностей города. Много магазинов, рынок.
  Апартаменты очень удобные и чистые . Есть стиральная машина, кондиционер и плита для приготовления пищи. Холодильник, фен. Я побывала в этих апартаментах уже второй раз. И с каждым разом в них становиться все лучше и лучше. Спасибо вам за прекрасный отдых и домашний уют. Я непременно приеду ещё раз и именно к вам, в ваши апартаменты. ❤️
