You don't need to be a monk or a nun to appreciate the solemnity of Metekhi Church. Make your way here for a glimpse into some local religious cultures and traditions.

Situated in Old Tbilisi, this residence for monks is worth a look. But you'll find tons more to check out in this area. St. George Statue, Narikala Fortress, and Bridge of Peace aren't too far away from Metekhi Church.

The staff politeness and behaviour was exceptional. But the hotel rooms were not great. The sink outside bathroom and toilet was very inconvenient.

Hotel location is great, walkable to Rustaveli Avenue. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The hotel room could be improved: The bathroom had a damp smell, the curtains have come off on a few hooks so the curtains don’t block out the daylight/sunlight. Rooms look a bit dated and could do with an update.
