Views across river and skyline
Most rooms face the Mtkvari River, Tbilisi's landmark sights, or both. Upper-floor balconies give a clear sightline across the water. The combination of city and river views from a single building is one of the property's defining characteristics.
Terrace and outdoor space
A guest terrace with outdoor furniture sits on the property. It is a practical place to sit with Tbilisi's skyline in view, separate from the balconies attached to individual rooms.
Rooms with outdoor bathtubs
The Deluxe King Room with Outdoor Bathtub and the Glass Room with Bathtub each sit at 25 m², include a spa tub, and open onto a balcony with river and landmark views. These are the most distinctive room types in the building.
The suite with private terrace
At 50 m², the Suite with Terrace is the largest room in the hotel. It has a king bed, a spa tub, and a private terrace looking out over the river and city landmarks — a different scale from the standard balcony rooms.
