Natural wood and a soft color palette create a calming vibe, while elements like circular beds and old-style telephones add to the quirky, retro feel.
Right in the middle

Set on Gogebashvili Street, the building places you between the cobblestone alleys of the historic Old Town and the working harbor.
The rooms
Wood-clad walls and ceilings pair with rotary phones, while select suites feature circular beds and private balconies overlooking the seaport.
