La proprietà — Emis
Emis is a solid 3-star base in Tbilisi’s Vake district, a leafy, slightly upmarket neighbourhood away from the Old Town bustle. The lobby is small and functional, with a front desk that gets you sorted quickly, tiled floors, and a quiet lounge area — more practical than pretty. It suits travellers who want reliable comfort, breakfast in a dining room with a view across the city, and easy bus/taxi access to central sights without the noise.
Cronache di Tbilisi
Tbilisi was founded in the 5th century by King Vakhtang I Gorgasali, who according to legend discovered hot springs while hunting. Its architecture layers Persian, Russian, and Soviet styles, with ornate wooden balconies, Art Nouveau facades, and brutalist blocks. The 2003 Rose Revolution pushed the city into a modern, café-rich renaissance, though gentrification is now a live debate. Today Tbilisi is a capital that feels both ancient and scrappily contemporary, with a fierce local identity and a growing food-and-wine scene.
