History old Hotel

History old Hotel Overview

I spent a weekend at the History old Hotel, tucked in the heart of Tbilisi, right on David Agmashenebeli Street. The address, 176 David Agmashenebeli Street, building b, Chugureti, feels like a secret alley you stumble into when you’re wandering past the old bazaar. It’s not flashy, but that’s part of its charm. The building itself is a 1950s Soviet block, but the rooms are surprisingly modern—think crisp linens, a mini‑bar that actually stocks local wine, and a balcony that gives you a sweeping view of the city’s famous Mtatsminda park. Honestly, the first thing that caught me was the scent of fresh coffee wafting from the rooftop café, and the faint thrum of traffic from the main street below.

The check‑in was a breezy affair. The front desk clerk, a young Georgian guy named Gela, greeted me with a warm smile and handed me a key card that looked like a passport stamp. He gave me a map of the neighborhood, pointing out the best spots: the spiral tea shop on Rustaveli Avenue, the tiny art gallery on Mtkvari Street, and the old stone fountain in the nearby park. He also mentioned that the hotel’s parking is free, but you’ll have to park in the street behind the building—there’s no dedicated space, so keep an eye on your bags if you’re loading them while the street is busy. The hotel’s location means you’re only a 10‑minute walk to the historic Old Town and a 20‑minute walk to the bustling Galleria Mall.

The room itself is a cozy 25 square meters, with a big window that frames the city skyline. The décor is a mix of mid‑century modern and local touches: a hand‑woven rug, a set of Georgian postcards on the wall, and a small wooden table that looks like it could host a quick espresso or a late‑night snack. The bathroom is surprisingly spacious, with a deep shower that’s a nice change from the cramped public ones you’ve probably seen elsewhere. The Wi‑Fi is strong, which is a relief because some of the older hotels here can be a bit flaky. The only real downside was the noise from the street at night—there’s a nearby construction site that starts up around 10 pm. But honestly, it’s not a major issue, and the building’s thick walls help keep most of it at bay.

What makes this place truly memorable is the staff. Gela, the front desk guy, was genuinely helpful. He gave me a list of recommendations for when I wanted to wander the city after dark. One night, I asked him about the best place to try khinkali, and he took me to a little family‑run restaurant on Shota Rustaveli Street that I never would have found on my own. The staff also let me bring my pet dog, which was a huge plus for me—there’s a small courtyard behind the building with a little patch of grass where my pup could nap while I relaxed on a bench. hotel’s 24‑hour breakfast service is a hit: a spread that includes fresh rolls, yogurt, and the local honey that tastes like summer nectar. You get a choice of tea, coffee, and a local fruit jam that’s a little sweeter than the ones you find in supermarkets.

Driving around the city can be a bit chaotic, but the hotel’s street parking is a lifesaver. I found a spot right in front of the building, which is convenient if you’re heading to the metro or the bus station. The metro station is a short walk away, and the bus routes that come through the area make it simple to get to any part of Tbilisi. The only thing I’m not sure about is the noise level during the day, especially near the main road. But during my stay, the noise was mostly traffic and the occasional shout from a street vendor, which felt like a natural part of the city’s rhythm.

If you’re looking for a place that feels like a home base rather than a hotel, the History old Hotel is worth a visit. The staff’s friendliness, the local touches, and the easy access to the city’s cultural spots make it a solid choice. It’s not a luxury resort, but its 4‑star rating and 9.6 score from other travelers speak volumes. The only thing you might want to keep in mind is the street noise at night, but that’s a small price to pay for the authentic Tbilisi experience. If you’re planning a trip, consider staying here—you’ll get a genuine, unfiltered taste of the city, and you’ll leave with stories of a friendly clerk, a cozy balcony, and a city that never stops humming.

Hotel in Tbilisi booking should be done early, especially during harvest season when the city hosts internationally celebrated wine festivals and cultural events.
