Hotel Zemeli — Hotel in Tbilisi, Georgia

In short

Hotel Zemeli is a 23-room property on Kostava Street in central Tbilisi, close to Rustaveli Avenue. The hotel describes its location as being in the “cultural center” of the city, within walking distance of the Tbilisi Philharmonic, Rustaveli Metro Station and Freedom Square. Rooms are arranged across four categories, and the hotel lists breakfast, Wi-Fi, a veranda and airport transfer among its services.

The building and its history

The hotel’s own materials do not give a construction date, architect or original use for the building, so no verified history can be stated here. Kostava Street itself is one of the arteries of Tbilisi’s late-19th- and 20th-century city centre, running close to Rustaveli Avenue, the city’s main boulevard of theatres, galleries and administrative buildings, and it mixes residential blocks from different eras that have since been converted to hotel and guesthouse use. Hotel Zemeli operates from one such building; beyond its current function as a 23-room hotel, the site does not publish further detail on the structure’s past.
