Q. What facilities will be available to guests at the Radisson?
"Our target is to have hotels in capital cities like Tbilisi . This product has different services which entail business and leisure together. The Radisson hotel in Tbilisi will have 19 floors, 249 rooms, 10 meeting rooms, 2 restaurants, 2 bars, a business centre, one spa, casino and one ballroom which will be meeting, banquet & wedding oriented.
"Designed to exceed expectations our 520 sq. meter conference facilities will include a pre-function and circulation area, an elegant 380 sq. meter ballroom and eight meeting rooms. Ideal for banquets, weddings and other special events, the ballroom will be divisible into three smaller rooms depending upon client’s needs. We will also offer a fully-equipped business centre with administrative services.
"Guests will have the biggest number of outlets to choose from, compared with other hotels in Tbilisi . The bar on the 19th floor is going to be the highest point bar in Tbilisi . The 3,100 sq. meter Radisson Casino presents casino entertainment with the usual range of table games, slot machines and two bars. The restaurant will comfortably seat 158 diners and in the summer, opens an outdoor dining section which can seat an additional 146 people and will serve delicious grilled dishes.
"The hotel will offer an exclusive 1,600 sq. meter spa and fitness centre with an indoor pool and a juice bar. Spread over two top floors and including a rooftop terrace, the spa and fitness centre. This will be the first spa of such quality service. It will be the biggest spa in Georgia. Currently we are negotiating with international spa brands.
"This 340 sq. meter ballroom will be one of the biggest on the market. Today there is a demand for wedding ballrooms of such sizes and I think it is going to have high occupancy. It will have a 6 meter high ceiling. There is space for 300 people and 400 people in theatre style.
"The total number of people employed in the hotel will be 250 people. Our staff members will mostly be locals. They are going to attend training programmes designed specially for Radisson hotel chains.
"It will take some time, but the goal is to keep the quality of service the same as in other Radisson hotel chains round the world. The period of trainings differs from 2 to 6 months depending on the positions.
"The main advantage of Radisson and treasure of the building will be the beautiful views of Tbilisi that are available from all of the rooms. The hotel is within walking distance of the metro station and just a 25-minute drive from Tbilisi International Airport.
