Courtyard by Marriott Tbilisi

Located on Freedom Square, this is the second Marriott property in Tbilisi. Although not as opulent as the Tbilisi Marriot, it still offers a service and facilities to a recognised international standard. Fifty percent of the rooms have views out over Freedom Square and more than half of the rooms are non-smoking. The health club has exercise machines, a sauna, massage room and a small swimming pool. Non-residents can access all these facilities for a certain fee. Next to reception is a booth for Pegasus Airlines, where you can buy tickets to fly to Mestia. This is by far the easiest place to book a seat on the plane. Also on the ground floor is the Freedom Brassiere, which comprises a bar area and also a more formal restaurant, with views over bustling Freedom Square. The drinks list is extensive, while the food menu offers international cuisine with a few traditional Georgian dishes. Prices exclude VAT.
