The Biltmore is a high-rise tower in the centre of Tbilisi and sits directly on Rustaveli Avenue, the city’s grand boulevard of theatres, museums and cafes. That position is its great strength: step out of the lobby and you are one minute from the avenue and three minutes from the Opera and Ballet Theatre, with the Georgian National Museum a gentle eleven-minute walk away. The 214 rooms come in eight types, from Deluxe doubles and Club rooms to Deluxe Suites, and the upper floors have broad views across the rooftops and hills. Facilities include an indoor pool with sun loungers and a poolside bar, a spa offering massages, facials and body treatments, two restaurants, a cafe, a garden and a hair salon. The booking page shows an excellent guest rating of 8.6 from more than 260 reviews, with guests praising the views, the helpful staff and the central location.
Location and getting around
The hotel is at 29 Rustaveli Avenue. Rustaveli metro station is seven minutes away on foot, and Freedom Square and the statue of Saint George are each about fourteen minutes. The old town and the sulfur baths are a short taxi ride, and central railway station is about nine minutes by car. The airport is roughly half an hour away, and a round-trip shuttle can be arranged on request for a fee.
Rooms
The eight room types give a wide range of choice, from standard Deluxe rooms to Club rooms with extra benefits and larger suites. Ask for a high floor with a view, since the height of the tower is its best feature. Some guests feel parts of the property are due for refreshing, so read recent reviews on the booking page before you choose a particular room type.
Who it suits
Travellers who want a central position, a pool and a spa without paying boutique prices, and who like the idea of a traditional hotel on the main avenue. It is especially convenient for opera and ballet visits, since the theatre is a few steps away, and for museum days.
Good to know
Continental breakfast is available for an extra charge, free self parking and valet parking are available, and the hotel has a 24-hour front desk and room service. As with any older high-rise, quality can vary between rooms, so contact the hotel in advance if you have specific needs. The restaurants are comfortable but pricey, so consider eating out on Rustaveli or in Sololaki.
