Accommodation in Tbilisi
After your London to Georgia air travel, you'll be understandably tired. So, make sure to book a comfortable hotel in advance. At this point, picking the right district and finding the ideal accommodation is key. The first thing you must understand is that when it comes to Tbilisi, the word "central" loses its meaning. The city is so well-connected that wherever you stay, you'll be close to the main attractions. You may consider renting an apartment or house near the city centre for the most authentic experience. If you want to explore Tbilisi on foot and want to find the perfect base near the main street, you should look for hotels on Rustaveli Avenue. Although these hotels tend to be pricier than those in other districts, they're worth the price. Of course, you might not want to be near the crowded tourist areas. So, you might pick the Vake and Saburtalo districts. Even though these districts do not have much to see, they are quiet and connected to most attractions via public transportation.
