So far, I’ve been rather disappointed with this hotel. I did book a single room with a balcony, but I hadn’t expected the room to be quite so small—and located directly beneath a bar stage. The loud music continued until midnight, making it impossible to sleep. I reported the issue to reception, but they still refused to move me to another room. In addition to this, I found some members of staff to be less than friendly or professional. Breakfast officially starts at 8am, and I was actually turned away when I tried to sit in the restaurant at 7:55am, which seemed rather absurd. Housekeeping is also not prompt—the overall service feels reminiscent of the Soviet era. If you’re looking for that kind of experience, perhaps this hotel will suit you. But for those of us simply seeking a relaxing holiday, it may not be the best choice.

How River Side Hotel has managed to claim 5 stars is beyond me—unless those stars were bought and paid for. This is, at best, a run-down 2-star property masquerading as luxury. The place is dirty, poorly maintained, with visible leaks, moldy walls, and an overall vibe of neglect. The so-called bar upstairs turns into a nightclub-level noise factory every night, with bass so intense the entire room shakes. Sleep? Impossible. I had booked a 3-week stay and fled after just two miserable nights. When I politely explained the conditions were unlivable and far from what was advertised, the staff were not only dismissive but downright rude. Not only did they refuse a refund, but they had the audacity to charge me for a single coffee capsule I used while trying to stay awake through the noise. There are plenty of decent places in Tbilisi—this isn’t one of them. Do yourself a favor and steer far, far away.
