the look.
The meticulous restoration of this boutique hotel, founded by four Georgian friends, stands as a testament to Georgia's innate talent for reviving historical structures while artfully marrying the old with the new. Nestled within a 19th-century structure, the hotel carefully maintains all of its historical elements, including a pastel-colored frescoed entryway, aged brick walls, parquet floors, wooden windows, and ornate iron-clad balconies, all while seamlessly integrating modern design and vintage aesthetics.
No room is alike, with each telling its own story through a treasure trove of bold artwork, painters' catalogs, local gallery and museum guides, traditional and modern dance clips, and engaging narratives about Tbilisi and its celebrated personalities. And each room offers distinct views of the city through its many oversized windows.
The hotel's richly painted interior spaces integrate the perfect blend of contemporary design elements, vintage colors, modern lighting, and oversized plants throughout, creating an abundance of cozy nooks for relaxation.
