Carlson Rezidor is expanding its presence in Georgia with the announcement of a partnership agreement with Block Geo Group to develop the Park Inn by Radisson Tori Tbilisi. It is Carlson Rezidor’s second Park Inn under development in the capital city – both complement the existing Radisson Blu hotel in town. All across Georgia, Carlson Rezidor now operates and develops six properties.
“Georgia is a key growth market for us, and we are delighted to further strengthen our network across the country together with our partners”, said Wolfgang M. Neumann, President & CEO of Rezidor.
Park Inn by Radisson Tori Tbilisi will feature 180 guest rooms, an all-day dining restaurant with 240m² and a lobby lounge bar area of 120m². Furthermore, the hotel will offer a meeting space totalling 215m² and parking space.
The hotel will have a central location just off the main commercial street of Tbilisi and only 200 meters from the Georgian Houses of Parliament. The Expo-Georgia Exhibition Centre, with over 139,000m² conference and exhibition space is located only 5km away. The international airport of Tbilisi is located 14km from the hotel and serves 27 destinations with increasing numbers in the summer months. Air traffic has shown exponential growth, reaching an all-time peak of 1.5 million passengers in 2013 amounting to an 18% increase year-on-year.
Park Inn by Radisson is Carlson Rezidor’s young and dynamic mid-market core brand. It is currently being re-designed as compelling and competitive offer for the growing guest clientele of Generation X and Y and features innovative services based on the three pillars choice – connectivity – control.
