Terrace and garden
The property has a terrace and a garden furnished with outdoor seating. Depending on where you stand, the outlook takes in the river, the mountains, the city or the garden itself. It's the main open-air space at the hotel.
Views from the rooms
Rooms look out over a choice of river, city, landmark, mountain or garden views. That's an unusual spread for a hotel at this price in Tbilisi, and it means most windows frame something worth looking at rather than a wall.
Bar and room service
There's a bar on site, and room service runs for guests who'd rather eat and drink in. Every room also has a tea and coffee maker with an electric kettle, so a hot drink is never far away.
