BETHESDA, Md., Nov. 20,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The Luxury Collection, part
of Marriott Bonvoy's portfolio of over 30 extraordinary hotel
brands, today announces the opening of Paragraph Freedom
Square, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Tbilisi. The hotel marks The Luxury
Collection's debut in Georgia, one
of Eastern Europe's most
sought-after leisure destinations. Due to its unique location at
the intersection of Europe and
Asia, Georgia boasts diverse natural landscapes,
distinct cuisine, and rich cultural heritage influenced by both the
West and the East. Situated in the heart of Freedom Square,
Tbilisi's most iconic address, the
hotel serves as an authentic gateway for global explorers to
discover the city's diversity and charm.
"Bringing The Luxury Collection to Georgia marks a significant milestone for the
brand, further underscoring our continued expansion into the
world's most intriguing destinations," said Philipp Weghmann, Vice
President and Global Brand Leader of The Luxury Collection.
"Paragraph Freedom Square beautifully weaves contemporary design
and signature experiences with the rich history of Tbilisi, and we look forward to welcoming
guests to enjoy this remarkable region."
Designed to capture the essence of Tbilisi, the hotel has been conceived as an
"Epitome of Contrast," seamlessly blending the old with the new.
Designed by renowned architectural firm Hausart Georgia, Paragraph
Freedom Square is housed in a striking, contemporary building with
a double-curved glass façade that reflects the beauty of Freedom
Square, including the State Opera House, the historic City
Assembly, and neo-classical style Art Museums.
The hotel's interiors, designed by HAT Design Paris, draw
inspiration from Georgia's rich
heritage and indigenous history. Design elements are influenced by
Chokha, a centuries-old national folk costume known for its
triangular shapes and bandoliers, and traditional ornaments with
distinctive geometrical patterns. These unique patterns beautifully
blend with contemporary aesthetics throughout the hotel's public
spaces and its 220 guestrooms and suites. The guestrooms feature a
warm color palette and furnishings crafted from contrasting
materials such as leather and velvet, creating a subtle luxurious
ambience. Floor-to-ceiling windows illuminate the guestrooms with
natural daylight, offering guests an unparalleled view of the
historic city. All guestrooms also feature spacious bathrooms with
bespoke amenities and wine fridges stocked with a selection of
local Georgian wines.
Paragraph Freedom Square is home to five distinct restaurants
and bars, offering a compelling culinary journey curated by
Michelin-starred Executive Chef Stephane
Gortina, who authentically showcases the finest Georgian
cuisine. Ostigan, set to become Tbilisi's newest dining hotspot, celebrates
Georgia's heritage with seasonal
menus featuring local delicacies alongside continental cuisine.
Signature dishes include homemade linguini with walnut, sun-dried
tomato, and traditional Georgian Baje sauce, a modern Georgian
Salad with smoked Suluguni cheese, and Paris-Tbilisi
chou dough with walnut mouse and caramelized tree nuts. Located on
the ninth floor, Chinari is the sky bar, perfect for an
evening escape, offering fine wines and handcrafted cocktails in an
intimate setting overlooking the city. Eary is the hotel's
seasonal rooftop terrace where guests can enjoy light bites or
gather with friends and family over brunch in Summer. Gulama
features an extensive spread for daily breakfast, and Talani
is the lobby bar adorned with curated art, serving homemade cakes
and pastries, accompanied by artisanal coffees and teas.
For ultimate indulgence, guests can escape to the Paragraph Spa,
a sanctuary of relaxation nestled on the top floors with six
private treatment rooms offering an array of revitalizing body
massages and ESPA facial treatments. Other amenities include an
infinity pool, an indoor circular pool, and a 100-square-meter
fitness center with sweeping views of Freedom Square. In addition
to state-of-the-art Technogym equipment, the fitness center is the
first PRAMA studio in Georgia to
provide a personalized high-intensity circuit training program with
options for music, videos, mood lighting, and interactive flooring
accessible via a mobile app.
Inviting guests to explore local cultural heritage, the hotel's
Destination Discovery program offers an array of immersive
experiences, including Georgian wine tasting sessions, traditional
delicacy cooking classes, and exclusive tours of the State Opera
House. Providing a rare opportunity to go behind the State Opera
House's curtains, the one-hour private tour, curated by the hotel's
concierge, will transport attendees to the glamorous history of the
iconic theatre, which has proudly stood since 1851. The
well-appointed meeting and event space spans 1,400-square-meters
and offers flexibility with a boardroom, five meeting rooms, and
two stunning ballrooms, the largest of which can accommodate up to
700 guests.
