Episode Tbilisi — Hotel in Tbilisi, Georgia

In short

Episode Tbilisi is a design-led hotel in the Saburtalo district of Tbilisi, at Pekini 41. The hotel describes itself as a place to “stay, connect and make the most of every moment,” built around self-service technology (app-based check-in and digital room keys), a 24/7 bar, co-working space and a range of room types aimed at solo travellers, couples, groups and longer-stay guests alike.

The building and its history

The official Episode Tbilisi website does not publish details of the building’s architect, construction date, original use or the timeline of its conversion into a hotel, so no verified facts can be given here. What can be said with confidence is a little about the setting: Saburtalo is one of Tbilisi’s larger administrative districts, developed mainly from the mid-20th century onwards as a residential and university quarter, and it today mixes Soviet-era apartment blocks with newer commercial and hospitality developments. Pekini Avenue, where the hotel sits, is one of the district’s established streets, known locally for its proximity to Vake Park and to parts of Tbilisi State University’s campus area. Travellers wanting the hotel’s own account of the building’s past should check directly with Episode Tbilisi, as gtour.ge was unable to confirm this from the material provided.
