Luxury hotel overlooking Mtkvari River and Old Town with stunning views of Narikala Fortress. Recently remodeled rooms, indoor pool, spa facilities, and traditional Georgian restaurant. Prime riverside location near Bridge of Peace.
The Sheraton Grand Tbilisi Metekhi Palace is one of Georgia's premier luxury hotels, occupying a commanding riverside position on Telavi Street along the western bank of the Mtkvari River. The hotel faces Old Town Tbilisi and enjoys direct views of the Narikala Fortress, the Metekhi Church perched on its clifftop, and the illuminated Bridge of Peace — arguably the finest panoramic orientation of any hotel in the city.

The property operates under the Sheraton brand within Marriott's portfolio and delivers international luxury standards. Rooms and suites were comprehensively refurbished and feature contemporary furnishings, floor-to-ceiling windows designed to maximise the river and Old Town views from the upper floors, premium bedding, marble-fitted bathrooms, and the full range of modern in-room amenities.

The hotel's Georgian restaurant serves traditional dishes prepared with regional ingredients, complemented by an extensive Caucasian wine selection. A lobby bar operates throughout the day and evening.
Business infrastructure includes multiple conference and event spaces, a business centre, and concierge services equipped to handle corporate travel requirements. The hotel is consistently popular with visiting government delegations, international business travellers, and high-end leisure guests seeking a luxury base with immediate access to Old Town's cultural and culinary offering.
