What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Even knowing that it’s called Artizan Design Hotel, it’s hard not to be surprised by just how bold a statement is made by its ultra-modern façade.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set in bohemian Vera, the leafy neighborhood is a short walk from Wine Factory N1 and bustling Rustaveli Avenue.
The rooms
Understated guest rooms offer a sedate sanctuary from the bold public spaces, complete with chevron floors and retro-chic tiled bathrooms.
Beyond Bar
A circular wooden counter sits beneath a glowing glass chandelier, pouring craft cocktails over checkered tile floors.
Restaurant
Iakobis Ezo
The neo-bistro serves Georgian dishes across a brick courtyard patio and dining nooks with pink leather banquettes.
At the table
Fluted glass pendants hang over curved banquettes and checkerboard tiles, where mornings begin with house-roasted coffee.
How it began
The grounds preserve the historic studio museum and lush private garden of master Georgian sculptor Iakob Nikoladze.
