Autograph Collection Hotels has announced its debut in Georgia with the opening of Paragraph Resort & Spa in the Black Sea coastal resort of Shekvetili.

The hotel joins the diverse and dynamic portfolio of Autograph Collection Hotels around the world.

“We are thrilled to welcome Paragraph Resort & Spa to the Autograph Collection Hotels portfolio,” said John Licence, vice president, premium and select brands, Europe, at Marriott International.

“With its spectacular design and standout guest experiences, this hotel certainly delivers on the brand’s commitment to offering exactly like nothing else moments at one-of-a-kind hotels around the world.”

Nestled between the magnetic sand beaches of the Black Sea coast and an ancient pine forest, Paragraph Resort & Spa offers a unique array of features and exceptional meeting facilities, perfect for both leisure and corporate retreats.

With a wealth of child-friendly facilities including kids club, cinema, zip line, bicycle trails and indoor aqua park, the hotel is also perfect for a family getaway.

An outstanding feature of Paragraph Resort & Spa is its expansive public spaces, which range from the lobby’s walkthrough aquarium full of exotic marine life, to a majestic winter garden with indoor waterfall and aqua park.

The jewel in the crown, however, is the 115-metre-long filtered seawater pool built into a panoramic deck leading out over the Black Sea.

“We are excited to debut our first Autograph Collection Hotel in Georgia with the beautiful Paragraph Resort & Spa Shekvetili,” said Jennifer Connell, vice president, brand marketing and management, Autograph Collection Hotels.

“With two additional hotels slated to open in Georgia by 2020, we look forward to expanding our footprint in the country and continuing to grow our collection of more than 135 distinctive hotels around the world.”

The 220 spacious bedrooms and suites feature distinguished design and luxurious furnishings, including ergonomically designed tubs and Roberto Cavalli amenities in the bathrooms.

All rooms offer private balconies, many with spectacular views of the Black Sea coast.

Guests are catered to at any time during their stay and will enjoy the hotel’s Lobby Bar, Winter Garden and all-day dining restaurant serving everything from breakfast to afternoon snacks and local delicacies for dinner.

Sky Bar, located on the top floor of the hotel, offers a tailored menu of exotic drinks and expertly mixed cocktails to be enjoyed whilst soaking up the stunning 360⁰ views over both the surrounding coast and mountains.
