Reviews of Firuza Hostel

Staff and residents were friendly. Able to use the fridge and kitchen for simple cooking. Basic and clean room. Hot shower and ok wifi. Shared toilets by the kitchen was smelly, so I walked all the way to the other end of the building (near room 1) to use a much better western toilet. Stayed 3 nights and had good sleep. I needed to catch a train to Tbilisi at 5:50am and the lady staff got up to open the hostel door for me, much appreciated!

Nice environment. The hostel has a very old school vibe, which I found charming.

Loved this old building! Definitely a place for a traveler, not someone on holiday or looking for something fancy. Mostly locals staying, did not meet other backpackers. The ladies running it do not speak English but they're nice nonetheless. Basic kitchen, big rooms, good wifi, no AC nor fans but even in July it didn't feel too hot as it's a giant building with millions of windows. Top location

Bathrooms are not nice or comfortable but to be expected for the price.

Everything was like a dream.

Everything was good.

One of the best hostels I ever stayed at. Since the building is so large, I got a private room when I booked a shared dorm. The location is near to the major sights in Borjomi. The staff is super friendly and generous. The building itself is very historic and interesting to wander around.

Nothing

Excellent location - close to Borjomi park, train station, taxis, easy to reach attractions. Shops are around. Very nice and sweet staff members. It was a very peaceful place. Soviet-era building and furniture add extra flavor to the place. Feels like time travel. If you are looking for an affordable stay it's a perfect place.

Full of history and incredible prices

Nothing

Very nice ladies there：）please be nice to them.

Perfect for budget traveller. Central location, friendly staff despite no English, big spooky mansion but room and shower are kept warm, warm comfortable bed. Old and tired building but everything I needed for a reasonable price- thanks.

You will either love or hate this draughty old mansion and its faded glory. I am glad there are still some places like this for backpackers to stay inexpensively.

It's a good hostel for the price, with a comfortable bathroom and a balcony overlooking a beautiful street. The staff is friendly and helpful.

I came in the winter, although there was a heating system in the room, the room was getting cold from outside, the doors were very old and there were feathers on the blanket.

The ladys that run the place are lovely people, even not speaking much english the are really welcoming. The location is perfect.

First thing, the hostel is very easy to find and is in a prime location of Borjomi. It is located right on or next to the Borjomula River. If you walk a little bit upstream, you can reach the Borjomi Central Park where one can find the fountain where the Borjomi water bubbles out of the earth. There is also the aerial tram, and then the walk up to the thermal hot springs. I thought the location was great for the proximity to these sights as well as to restaurants, bakeries, shops, etc. There is ample, and safe, parking on the street in front. The building itself is older.. but maybe for that reason is full of character! Wide stairwell, massive porches, worn carpets. I loved my room with a comfortable bed and adjacent bathroom and I slept very soundly. The staff is also very helpful despite any linguistic barriers. They helped me park and showed me all around the facilities. Thank you! For me, I thought that the location was very representative of the Borjomi of today and yesteryear... so I enjoyed my stay so very much! It is one of the reasons I like traveling. I like to learn about the history, see how things are today, and get to try new experiences!

I didn't have enough time in Borjomi :( In addition to the mineral water/hot springs, there is the nearby national park as well as the ski resort of Bakuriani just up the road. I didn't allocate myself enough time to visit all the offerings in the area. Maybe next time.

..hotel has very special atmosphere, it is in old building...but everything was ok - quiet, clean, perfect location and ladies who working here are very nice, helpful and friendly

Good location, near Borjomi Central park. Big and authentic Soviet Union Hostel with great balcony.

shared toilet is kind of terrible.

Excellent location. Great terrace. Clean linen

Property is very very old. Toilet... is the worst one I've ever seen in hotels. I used public one down the river on park entry.

I love everything about this place, quiet beautiful and affordable. Dont hesitate to visit. Its old but so much history and Charm.
