The existing building is located in one of the old “Zemo Kala” historical districts of Tbilisi. At one time, it was the former Armenian market, now on Kote Abkhaz (former Leselidze) Street. The building is a characteristic example of Tbilisi architecture of the second half of the 19th century. The main task of the architect when working on the Ibis Styles Old Tbilisi project was to preserve the authentic appearance of the building and incorporate the function of a hotel into it. Special attention was paid to returning the facade to its original appearance, restoring architectural details and preserving elements of the Tbilisi balcony. The metal spiral staircase with a traditional cast railing was completely renovated and returned to its original appearance. An authentic copy of the entrance door was also made, which was placed back in its original place and acquired a new life. The hand-painted stained glass windows in the inner courtyard preserve the atmosphere characteristic of Old Tbilisi and emphasize the cultural value of the building. In the new building, special emphasis was placed on balconies, which not only represent an architectural touch, but also allow guests to enjoy unique views of Old Tbilisi. The renovated facility simultaneously combines the city's cultural heritage and modern hotel standards, thus becoming an organic part of the urban fabric of Old Tbilisi.
