The location is excellent - right on Rustaveli Street, 5-10 minutes walk to Liberty Square. The room was very big and had a lovely terrace at the back of the property, so it was nice and quiet. I liked the fact there was a kettle in the room and water bottles topped up every day. The bed was extremely comfortable.

My welcome was rather underwhelming! I arrived having flown through the night and was staying for several days but the guy at reception seemed intent on getting me to pay straight away. I was exhausted! Note to travellers: there are 45 steps to get into the hotel. This was not a problem for me, but it might be if you have mobility issues. No lift. Also, note to UK travellers: my UK credit cards didn’t work so I had to use a cash card.

My wife and I spent 5 delightful nights here during the period of our wedding in Georgia, accompanied by some family members. The hotel was an exceptional base for organising the ceremony, visiting Tbilisi, and starting our honeymoon, in large part because of the delightful staff whose help, assistance, and generosity during out stay made our marriage all the more wonderful. We returned from our ceremony to find a bouquet of flowers, a bottle of wine, and a humble, beautiful note from our hosts, set on the desk of our room.

Great location, friendly staff, good toiletries, bathrobes, slippers, great bed sheets, everything is perfect!

Maybe consider bringing two water bottles each time there's cleaning in the room. Two welcome bottles are clearly not enough for a whole stay, and it's not very convenient to always keep it in mind and buy outside the hotel.

I had a very pleasant stay at Octavia. The first thing that attracts me is the location -- on the main street just opposite to Marriott -- many attractions, shops, and restaurants are reachable within 10 minutes' walk. When I checked in, I was welcomed by the kind and polite staff who quickly arranged my room. The decor of this boutique hotel is charming, with wood and historical elements. The room itself it spacious, well-equipped, and clean. The bonus? A large balcony facing the back which I could relax at night or in the morning.

The entrance is a bit tucked between shops because it is not located on the ground floor.

I really enjoyed staying at Octava. I had two different rooms during my stay, one at the back with terrace, which was spacious and quiet. The other, also very large and comfortable was facing the street with a balcony over Rustaveli Ave. this might be a bit noisy for light sleepers but was fine for me. The staff were nice and helpful. The location is excellent with cafes and restaurants nearby.

You can order breakfast on a tray but its expensive. Better to go out nearby. There is also a great french style bakery in nearby Mitropan Laghidze St.

Good ambience.

Breakfast was too expensive for what it offered, but some alternative places in walking distance. Be aware there is no elevator.

This place is a little 💎 gem in the center of the city.If you like to feel like at home or visit your family, this is exactly what you need. People are very friendly and ready to help you anytime. Maya,hotels "mother" is so warm and caring that make you feel relaxed and welcome. Maya will cook you breakfast and clean your room, and you are always returning back and finding a clean and comfy bed and clean towels. Barbara , the manager, is such a sweetheart and accommodating girl.We love her so much.The guys and girls at reception are adorable,especially we like Vano and Lisa. Mirab, the hotel driver will meet you and greet you at Tbilisi aeroport and help you with luggage.As well, he will send you back without worrying about being late for your flight.

I can't say anything,because it was great!

Quite big room and big bed, very central location. Nice balcony facing the main street. Fairly quiet from the street, even though it's a main road. Close to museums, metro, shopping. 10-15min walk to old Tbilisi. Close to Magti to buy local sim card.

The room was next to the reception so it was not very private. The safe was not attached to the wall. When I booked the room (through Booking), my credit card (Amex) was immediately copied and used in Georgia so I had to cancel it and order a new one. Don't know if it was just a coincidence but it happened the day after my booking.

Excellent value for money. Great location. The room was very big, clean with the largest closet, and well equipped with everything I needed. The heater in the room was very effective, and the hot shower worked well and fast. I loved walking down the stairs from my room to the lobby every morning as there was wonderful Christmas decoration in the lobby area with nice music.

Nothing. I didn't take up on the breakfast option but my friends who did weren't wild about it. But there are nice cafes around.

The location is superb, on the histrionically most important street in Tbilisi and walking distance to all the major sites and metro station. Receptionist Anna was very friendly and helpful and even arranged for complementary glasses of wine on our final evening. Bed very comfortable

We asked for a quiet room at the rear of the property and this was great. The front facing rooms would be much noisier I think. Toilet seat was loose, hotel arranged for it to be ‘fixed’ and within a day, loose again. Minor annoyance.
