BACKGROUND Part of the Radisson Group’s luxury brand, this property opened in January 2019. It is owned by Georgian conglomerate Silk Road Group, as is the Radisson Blu Iveria in Tbilisi and the Radisson Blu, Batumi, in the autonomous region of Adjara.
WHAT’S IT LIKE? Stunning. The hotel sits in the historic Tsinandali wine estate in a large garden of mature trees with a mansion at its centre, now a museum. The hotel is towards the top of the grounds. Though very modern, it is sensitive to the location, not just because it incorporates the old cellars and winemaking buildings but because the new part has been covered by a living wall of plants. Reception is in a long room with contemporary art, and liveried employees help you with luggage while friendly, English-speaking desk sta… assist with check-in. Interiors by the late German industrial designer Ingo Maurer and his team are outstanding.
