ROOMS Tbilisi — Hotel in Tbilisi, Georgia

In short

ROOMS Tbilisi is a lifestyle hotel on Merab Kostava Street in central Tbilisi, part of the Georgian hospitality group Rooms Hotels, which also operates properties in Kazbegi and Batumi. According to the group’s official website, the Tbilisi hotel functions as a gathering point for travellers and local creatives alike, built around dark wooden floorboards, leather furnishings and vintage light fittings, with an in-house restaurant, ROOMS Tbilisi Kitchen, serving a contemporary take on Georgian cuisine. The hotel’s own site is relatively sparse on hard specifics — architects, opening dates, room counts and facilities beyond dining are not spelled out for the Tbilisi property — so this profile reports only what is confirmed, and flags clearly where detail is not published.

The building and its history

The Rooms Hotels website dates the founding of the brand to 2012, when the first property, Rooms Kazbegi, opened in a former Soviet-era sanatorium complex in the mountains near Stepantsminda. The site is explicit about that origin story but does not give an equivalent account for the Tbilisi hotel: no architect is named, no original use of the building on Merab Kostava Street is described, and no specific year is given for when ROOMS Tbilisi opened or was converted. What can be said with confidence is that the hotel sits in a part of central Tbilisi shaped largely during the late Soviet period, when Kostava Street was laid out as one of the city’s principal arteries connecting the Rustaveli Avenue area to the Vake district further west — a stretch of the city with a mix of mid-to-late twentieth-century institutional and residential architecture.

• 2012 — Rooms Hotels brand launches with Rooms Kazbegi, converted from a Soviet-era sanatorium.
• Date not stated — ROOMS Tbilisi opens on Merab Kostava Street as the group’s city hotel.
• Later — Rooms Hotels expands to Batumi on the Black Sea coast, becoming a three-property Georgian group.

Readers wanting an architect’s name, a precise opening year, or confirmation of the building’s earlier use should treat these as open questions; the hotel’s own materials do not address them, and gtour.ge has not found an independently verifiable record to add here.

Rooms and suites

The official website does not publish a breakdown of room categories, counts, or floor sizes for ROOMS Tbilisi. It describes the rooms in general terms only, saying they are “spacious” and “defined by dark wooden floorboards, elegant leather furnishings, and vintage light fittings.” No information is given on specific views, bathroom fittings, or suite tiers for the Tbilisi property. Travellers wanting exact configurations — standard rooms versus suites, bed types, or whether rooms face the street or an interior courtyard — should check the live booking engine on the official Rooms Hotels site, which lists current availability and categories at the point of booking.

Restaurants, bars and venues

ROOMS Tbilisi Kitchen — The hotel’s named restaurant is described by the group as offering “a modern retelling of the country’s diverse culinary traditions.” No further detail — menu style, opening hours, or seating capacity — is given on the main site for this specific venue; prospective diners are directed to the restaurant’s own page for particulars. No bar, rooftop, or secondary venue is named for the Tbilisi property in the material reviewed; the sister restaurants Kazbegi Kitchen, Rubber Duck and Batumi Kitchen belong to the group’s other two hotels, in Kazbegi and Batumi respectively, not to ROOMS Tbilisi.

Wellness, pool and fitness

The official website does not describe a spa, pool, gym or other wellness facility at ROOMS Tbilisi. A pool is mentioned elsewhere on the site, but it belongs to Rooms Kazbegi, described there as “mountain facing.” No equivalent feature is claimed for the Tbilisi hotel, so travellers should not assume one exists without confirming directly with the property.

Meetings and events

No meeting rooms, event spaces, or conference facilities are mentioned for ROOMS Tbilisi on the group’s website. Organisers interested in hosting events at the hotel should contact the property directly, as the published material gives no specifics to report here.

Awards and memberships

The official website does not list any awards, ratings, or hospitality-association memberships for ROOMS Tbilisi or the wider Rooms Hotels group. None are stated, so none are claimed here.

Prices and booking

The Rooms Hotels website runs a central booking tool covering all three properties, with guest numbers selectable from one to ten, but it does not publish fixed nightly rates on its general pages. Current prices depend on dates, room category and demand and are shown only once a search is run through the official booking engine. Travellers should check the official site directly for up-to-date rates and availability at ROOMS Tbilisi.

Location and getting there

ROOMS Tbilisi is located at 4, Merab Kostava Street, in central Tbilisi. Kostava Street is one of the city’s principal thoroughfares, running from the area near Rustaveli Avenue — Tbilisi’s main cultural and commercial boulevard — westward towards the Vake district, known for Vake Park and Chavchavadze Avenue. A hotel on this stretch of the street would typically be within walking distance of Rustaveli Avenue’s theatres, galleries and the Rustaveli metro station, as well as the university quarter around Tbilisi State University. Tbilisi International Airport is generally reckoned at around 20 to 30 minutes from the city centre by car or taxi, traffic depending; the hotel’s own site does not give a specific transfer time, so this is offered as general orientation rather than a hotel-stated figure.
