Roughly: in the off-season (November-March) — from $150-200 per night, in high season (May-October) — $250-450 and up for a room with a view or a suite. Prices vary by dates and occupancy — check Yandex Travel or Booking.com 1-2 months before your trip.

Rustaveli Avenue and Freedom Square are the very center, a 10-15 minute walk to the Old Town (Biltmore, Marriott, Paragraph, Radisson Blu). Vera district — quieter, design hotels (Stamba). Avlabari — across the river, with the best view of the Old Town (Sheraton Metechi Palace).

Yes. Radisson Blu Iveria — indoor pool and spa with a panoramic view. Stamba Hotel — a pool in the former printing house atrium. Biltmore and Marriott — fitness and spa; check pool availability by season. When booking, use the pool as a filter — not all of them are open year-round.

For 3 days — the Old Town (Kala) or Mtatsminda: maximum atmosphere and close to the sights. For a week or longer — Chughureti or Vake: more convenient, calmer, cheaper.

Yes, for a first visit it's the best choice. Sulfur baths, Narikala, balconied courtyards — all within walking distance. Downside: noisier and pricier than other districts. Choose a place with air conditioning.
