- Unbeatable location on Saarbruecken Square, steps from the famous Dry Bridge Flea Market
- Industrial-chic design that feels like a curated Instagram feed rather than a corporate hotel
Quick Take: It’s a fun, loud, and stylish hostel-hotel hybrid that prioritizes vibes over quiet and closet space.
Reviewed by @theboutiqueadventurer: I honestly loved the energy at Moxy Tbilisi. The rooms are compact—literally just for sleeping—but the river view was sweet. I spent all my time in the lobby; it’s got billiards, great work spots, and a bar. If you want a social base in the city center, this is it.

The 'party in the lobby' vibe translates to bass thumping through the floorboards on lower levels, and the lack of a fridge in standard rooms frustrates longer stays.
- You are a solo traveler or digital nomad looking to meet people
- You prefer spending your money on experiences rather than square footage
- You want to be walking distance to Fabrika and the Dry Bridge Market

- Back-facing rooms if you prioritize silence over a view of the square
Rooms to avoid
- 2nd and 3rd-floor rooms near the elevator (noise funnel)
- Rooms directly above the lobby bar if you are sensitive to bass
Room Request Genie – copy & paste
“I would appreciate a room on the highest possible floor, away from the elevator and the lobby bar noise. A view of the TV Tower would be a bonus.”

Insider Tips

The 'Puri Guliani' pastry shop connected to the hotel is excellent — skip the hotel buffet and grab a fresh khachapuri there.
- ✨
Use the 'Bolt' app for taxis; it's cheap and reliable in Tbilisi, avoiding the 'tourist tax' of street hailing.
- ✨
The lobby has a 24/7 'Grab & Go' station if you get the munchies at 3 AM.
