Unfound Door

Breathing new life into an historic building

A grand 19th-century building painstakingly restored over two years, Unfound Door is integral to the cultural heritage of Old Tbilisi. The stunning entrance hall sets the tone of this boutique hotel, with its grand roof lantern bathing its historic frescoes and marble floor in natural light. As you move through the space, it’s all polished marble, stripped-back herringbone floors and exposed brick walls. Light and shadow play a huge part in the relaxed aesthetic of the hotel’s numerous chilled out spaces (one of which doubles up as the breakfast room). The busy D.Agmashenebeli Avenue, well known for handsome 19th-century architecture and numerous places to eat and drink, could be a million miles away.

Rooms and suites have high ceilings and vintage lighting, and you can enjoy home comforts, like window seats, armchairs and rattan outdoor furniture on balconies. In the stylish bathrooms you can enjoy walk-in showers with water-efficient rainfall shower heads. The ground floor is home to the Unfound Door gastro-bar where Georgian-European cuisine is served using locally sourced produce, and vegetarian and vegan options are available. At the end of a long day, settle into a tall chair at the low-lit bar and enjoy a hand-mixed cocktail or glass of wine from the curated list.
