Elia Boutique Hostel & Apart-Hotel

Een prachtig ingericht hostel met goede stapelbedden voorzien van een leeslampje, stopcontacten en een gordijntje. Ik heb de sfeer een 10 gegeven omdat alle faciliteiten om contact te leggen aanwezig zijn (zoals een gemeenschappelijke ruimte, activiteiten en een keuken), maar ik heb het niet echt kunnen testen omdat ik een van de weinige gasten was.

This hostel is a real gem! It's made with such attention and care, you feel at home right away. The facilities are really good. There are enough toilets and showers, the kitchen is well equipped. The beds have good curtains that give a lot of privacy. But most of all; the place has a really good atmosphere and the owner really cares about her guests.

met a lot of nice people here, the place is very unique and elian will make you instantly feel at home. great if you are a cat lover. can only recommend!!

Ich hatte einen sehr guten Aufenthalt in diesem Hostel in Tiflis und würde definitiv wiederkommen. Die Lage ist top – viele Sehenswürdigkeiten, Restaurants und die Altstadt sind schnell erreichbar. Das Personal war durchgehend freundlich und hilfsbereit. Man bekommt gute Tipps und fühlt sich direkt willkommen. Das macht den Aufenthalt deutlich angenehmer. Die Zimmer und Gemeinschaftsbereiche waren sauber und gemütlich. Es ist kein Luxus, aber genau das, was man als Reisender braucht.

Cozy and friendly, felt truly at home at this beautiful property. Elia is amazing, and extremely hospitable. Great place for solo travelers, extremely fun nights at the kitchen talking eith people from all pver the world.

Feels like home. Booked 3 days, stayed 2 months. Cozy atmosphere, very clean and well maintained. The owner (“mother”) creates a warm, welcoming vibe. Staff are caring, share local advice, and even invite guests to meals to experience the culture. Great service: laundry, extra blankets, and quality local tea. Perfect place for authentic hospitality and comfort.

I stayed 4 nights in Jan, No staff only the owner who should be doing everything. No changing bed sheets, stayed 4 nights with the same sheets, no cleaning for hostel. What pissed me the most is that the hostel was freezing, the main heaters are off and small ones are working and not all the time as it should be. It was freezing and snowing outside and imagine having a shower in a freezing shower. I wouldn't recommend the place.

Η Έλια είναι μια υπέροχη και φροντιστική οικοδέσποινα. Σε καλωσορίζει σε αυτό το κατάλυμα και σε κάνει να νιώθεις σαν στο σπίτι σου. Μάλιστα, επέκτεινα τη διαμονή μου για ένα ακόμη βράδυ, καθώς ένιωθα ασφαλής και άνετα εδώ ως νεότερος ταξιδιώτης. Υπάρχουν γάτες στο λόμπι, οι ...

okay so i booked this place for like 3-4 days max. ended up staying 20+ days. that should tell you something right there. elia is just... different? like she actually cares about hospitality in a way that feels real, not performative. she's genuinely invested in making sure you feel good, and it shows in everything—from how she sets up the space to how she checks in on you without being intrusive. the cat situation 😸 full transparency: i was NOT a cat person before this. like at all. but ...

Best hostel experience ever!! 🤩 hostess very kind and super helpful.

Awesome vibe

The hostel was great! It was so cosy and Elia is truly wonderful. I had a great time there, it’s like staying in a living room:)

This was one of the best hostels that I have ever stayed. The host was very friendly and very understanding. Such a beautiful place. You can literally see the work she has put into the place. It's very near from most tourist places in Tbilisi.

It looked quite authentic and beautiful in the photos. I thought the common areas would be social and convenient. Common areas can be less so. It's a fairly large hostel with many rooms. If your room doesn't match the photos or doesn't have windows, there are brighter, cleaner rooms in the back. Because it's so large and carpeted, it feels cozy, but I wouldn't recommend it if you're sensitive to dust. There's also a heating issue.

I went to Elia Boutique Hostel as a mere tourist. I left a better person. Truly a life changing experience, Elia Boutique Hostel captures the essence of life itself; a symbol of hope, of happiness, of love. Its majestic decorations, vibrant colours and intricate design reflect the true essence of life. But the hostel is more than its mere physical presence. On a spiritual level, it evokes a sense of tranquility, reminder to honour & protect the beauty that enriches our lives. Thank you, Elia

Very nice staff and owner very kind . Is very nice and clean i will be back when I am in Tbilisi.

I had a good night's sleep, enjoyed the freshly-prepared (!) breakfast and sitting in the garden with the cats abd kittens. It's probably more comfortable right now during the low season, because I can't imagine two bathrooms being enough for that many hostel guests. The dining area could use some improvement.

The interior of the hostel is really amazing. Its a bit far from the city centre or the old town (at least 20min by foot). The area itself can be described as the real old tbilisi without tourists.One thing I didnt like: The dorm rooms are connected so essentially you have like a 20 person dorm room since there is no door. Idk how social it is since I only stayed one night but I think its what you make of it. Bathrooms are ok

After a month of staying here what really stood out was the feeling- peaceful, friendly, and full of heart. Leaving wasn’t easy. I’m so grateful for the people I met and the memories made here. The owner, Eliana is just lovely. Such a kind and caring soul. Can’t wait to come back someday.

one of the most relaxing hostels i’ve ever stayed at, about 15 minutes in to town but so beautiful and Eliana is so lovely!
