G&M Overview

Tbilisi is a city that never really lets you forget the way its streets smell of fresh bread and the way the old stone feels cool under your fingers. I first stumbled onto G&M on a rainy afternoon, the kind of rain that makes the city glow like wet glass. The block is tucked into Askana I Dead End, a narrow lane that feels like it’s been carved out of the city’s own history. You know, those alleys that locals still use for quick coffee runs? That’s the vibe. When I walked in, the lobby was a surprisingly cozy mix of modern chic and Georgian craft – hand‑woven rugs, wooden benches that creak just a little when you sit. The reception desk was staffed by a young woman who, honestly, had the energy of a barista on a Friday night. She took my keycard with a smile and a quick, “Welcome to G&M, enjoy your stay.” The check‑in was almost instantaneous, but there was a short queue of other guests, all looking like they’d just woken up from a late night in the city’s nightlife – which, by the way, is something you have to experience yourself.

The rooms themselves are a little slice of comfort. I booked a twin room on the third floor, which gave me a view of the city’s skyline that’s not quite the postcard but definitely the real deal. The bed was a cloud‑like comfort, though the mattress was a bit too firm for my taste – a minor critique, but still a decent sleep overall. The bathroom was surprisingly spacious, with a rain shower that makes you feel like you’re in a luxury spa, and the tiles had a subtle, warm glaze that caught the morning light. I could hear the distant murmur of the city outside – the honking of buses, a distant church bell, the clatter of a vendor’s cart. The noise level was just right; not too loud, not too quiet.

Parking can be a bit of a hassle. The building itself doesn’t have a dedicated lot, so you’re looking at street parking or paying for a nearby garage that charges a bit, but the staff will sort it out for you with a quick call. I ended up using the parking at the adjacent mall – a few minutes away – and it was a good deal. The hotel’s location is actually a win if you’re into exploring the Old Town. From the lobby you can walk a ten‑minute stroll to Metekhi Church, then hop over to the bustling Rustaveli Avenue where you’ll find a mix of souvenir stalls, art galleries, and the famous Tbilisi Zoo. The best part? The hotel’s proximity to the metro station on the same street, so you can hop on a train to the mountain or the seaside with ease.

Honestly, the staff were friendly but a bit swamped during the peak season. I noticed a few guests waiting for their rooms, and it was a bit chaotic, but the overall vibe was welcoming. If you’re planning a visit during the summer, be prepared for the city to be buzzing – the streets are alive with music, street performers, and the smell of grilled meat. If you’re looking for a quieter time, the fall and winter months are perfect; the city is hushed, the streets lined with fairy lights, and the hotel’s interior feels like a warm hug after a chilly walk.

The only small gripe I have is that the Wi‑Fi speed fluctuated a bit during the day. I found myself downloading a local playlist in the evening because the connection was a tad slow. But that’s a minor glitch in an otherwise solid experience. In the end, G&M feels like the kind of place where you can feel the pulse of Tbilisi right in your pocket, and it’s definitely worth a stay if you’re keen on soaking up the city’s local flavor without the hassle of a mega‑hotel.

Apartments in Tbilisi provide travelers with authentic local experiences, allowing them to explore traditional Georgian markets and cook with fresh Caucasian ingredients.
