A hotel you feel before you remember
Tbilisi's old telegraph house, reborn by Neri & Hu — a place of sight, taste, sound and stillness. A member of The Leading Hotels of the World.
Brutalism, softened by hand
Look up: the concrete bones of a 20th-century telegraph house, kept honest. Look closer: walnut, fluted glass, brass and a green the colour of a switchboard lamp, layered in by Neri & Hu.
It's the kind of room that rewards a slow first walk-through — every corner has been considered, none of it shouts.
Where the night settles
Located in the historic former post‑office building at Rustaveli Avenue, The Telegraph Hotel Tbilisi offers an impressive collection of 239 rooms across nine categories - from elegant classic rooms to grand luxury suites - carefully restored by design studio Neri & Hu to blend mid‑century Soviet brutalism with modern luxury.
Nine kitchens, one long appetite.

Where you've landed
About Tbilisi · the city itself
Founded on a hot spring and named for its warmth, Tbilisi has spent fifteen centuries at the crossing of Europe and Asia — restless, hospitable, and impossible to see in a single day.

Below the fortress
0.72 mi / 1.16 km from the hotel
A mosque, a synagogue, and centuries-old churches stand within a few minutes of one another, balconies leaning overhead. The city at its most layered, and at its most photogenic just before dark.
-
Where to take the waters
1.41 mi / 2.26 km from the hotel
The springs that named the city still rise beneath the brick domes of Abanotubani, the oldest reason anyone settled this valley. Book a private room and a scrub, like Pushkin and Dumas, for a timeless Tbilisi bathing ritual.
-
The crooked clock tower
0.87 mi / 1.41 km from the hotel
Beneath a gloriously crooked clock tower, hand-carved puppets play wordless little stories that hold adults as easily as children. An angel appears on the hour; the room is tiny, so book ahead.

A walk down Rustaveli
right outside
The Telegraph's own address and the city's grandest street, named for the poet who gave Georgia its epic. The opera, the parliament, the plane trees — the avenue you'll wake up on, at the heart of modern Tbilisi.

At the foot of the Caucasus

The golden dome
1.6 mi / 2.6 km from the hotel
Across the river in Avlabari, the golden-domed Sameba rises higher than anything in the old city — modern, yet deep in Georgian tradition. Go at dusk, when chant carries through the open doors.
