What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Afisha Hotel was intended by its designer, Esma Khetsuriani, as a tribute to the Georgian capital’s cultural history, especially its rich theatrical tradition.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The Vera district surrounds the building, with the circular Tbilisi Concert Hall next door and Wine Factory N1 nearby.
The rooms
Bright red Roberts radios, vintage Salter scales, and Frédéric Malle amenities furnish the quiet bedrooms.
The spa
Red-curtained rooms host Burgundy vineyard facials and Moroccan rituals, set beside a Finnish sauna and hot tub.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
A central champagne bar serves drinks beneath metallic curtains, and the brasserie prepares Josper-grilled dishes.
How it began
City Project and creative agency Gastronaut built the hotel as a retro-futuristic homage to Georgia's cinematic legacy.
