Shota @ Rustaveli Boutique Hotel

The hotel is by the parliament and there’s protest daily but not noisy as other travelers said. Great for value.

The hotel is conveniently located to downtown and bus lines. There were a few small things wrong that the hotel tried to correct like room being too hot, water leaking from sink, no towels. Once it was all sorted, it was ok. We didn’t pay for breakfast as it was rather expensive so can’t comment on that.

Shota Rustavalli Boutique Hotel, Tbilisi, Georgia: The most luxe of our stay in our whirlwind, super-tiring travels through Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia, we were looking forward to well-deserved pampering here and daily warm bath tub soaks. I’m one for authentic reviews so here goes. The start of our stay was terrible. Water was cut off in this part of town - mind you, we were next to the Parliament of Georgia, how dare they. So there was no water for the day. If you have just arrived, smelling far from English Gardens and sweaty, this is the end of your world. We were given mammoth water bottles for wipe downs. Water was up the next day. It isn’t the hotel’s fault, really. However, there were more shortcomings. We had full-day trips out of city and were too exhausted to complain. Our door didn’t open or close easily, like there was a misalignment. Room smells like sewage in the evening. Shower gel ran out and housekeeping didn’t top up. This was mortifying as we had an early day trip out and housekeeping didn’t start till 7.30 am as I was informed via Whatsapp, but reception said 9 am. AC is always parked at room temperature, sometimes warm. Pool, gym and sauna are out too and unannounced on site. I’m listing the litany of crimes so management can sort this out as the poor staff get the lambasting. Gocha was very sweet and explained as much as he could with the water cut-off. Ana was our thumbs-up favorite with 360-service recovery. She arranged for a birthday cake for my son. Also a complimentary bubbly breakfast. Also so kindly extended our check out time (although there was a power cut for a good hour, we were nonetheless grateful). The great merits here are the location – this is smack right in the city, we even stood next to the protestors at Parliament of Georgia. Restaurants, bars, cafes, shopping, museums are all around, within a short walk. There’s 10% discount on dining and free Georgian wine (you’ll be drinking it like water in Georgia). It did all end on a very sweet note – thank you Ana. #eatstylishtravelstylish

Comfy hotel with great location, Old Town is about 10min walk. Downstairs is a restaurant, had a yummy chicken soup.

All is not bad I have to say, but the air condition’s temperature control has to maintain the temperature in a reasonable rate, it was too hot in room and ac was hard to control. The staff there were really nice and you can trust them, wonderful!

Great location, wonderful stuff, big and clean room, breakfast with plenty of choices
