Tbilisi mixes old-world charm with bold new design. The best luxury hotels in Tbilisi reflect that mix perfectly. Some hide inside Soviet-era landmarks and 19th-century caravanserais. Others rise high above the city in glass towers. Keep your camera ready at check-in.
I rounded up 21 hotels across four areas. Rustaveli Avenue puts you on the city's grand boulevard. Old Town and Freedom Square keep the sulphur baths and Narikala close. Vake brings parks, cafés and skyline views. Vera, Metekhi and Marjanishvili offer boutique stays with plenty of character.
