### In short

Astana Palace is a hotel in Gori, in Georgia’s Shida Kartli region, standing on the city’s central Tamar Mepe V square. The hotel’s official website, as currently published, gives very little detail beyond its existence and address, so this profile sets out what can be confirmed and what remains unpublished.

### The building and its history

The official website does not publish an architect’s name, a construction date, a description of the building’s original use, or a timeline of any conversion into a hotel. No dated history can therefore be given here without inventing facts that are not stated.

What can be said with confidence is general, verifiable background about the setting rather than the specific building. Gori is an ancient town on the Mtkvari (Kura) river in Shida Kartli, long known as the market town below Gori Fortress, a hilltop citadel whose foundations go back many centuries and which overlooks the modern town centre. Tamar Mepe square, named after the medieval Georgian monarch Queen Tamar, is one of Gori’s principal public squares and sits close to the town’s historic core. Any hotel addressed there occupies a central, long-settled part of the city rather than an outlying or purpose-built hotel district.

- Specific construction date: not stated on the official website

- Architect or design firm: not stated on the official website

- Original use of the building: not stated on the official website

- Date of conversion to a hotel: not stated on the official website

Travellers wanting a verified architectural history of this specific building should ask the hotel directly, as the current website text does not address it.

### Rooms and suites

The official website text supplied does not list room categories, counts, views, or in-room amenities for Astana Palace. No figures on the number of rooms or suites, and no description of bedding, bathrooms, or outlooks, are given. Readers should check the booking pages on the hotel’s own website or a booking platform for current room types and what each category includes, since nothing in this respect can be stated here as fact.

### Restaurants, bars and venues

The official website text provided does not name any specific restaurant, bar, or function venue operated by Astana Palace. As no venues are listed by name, none can be profiled individually here. Guests interested in on-site dining or drinking options should consult the hotel directly or its current website, since this information was not part of the material reviewed for this profile.

### Wellness, pool and fitness

No wellness facilities, pool, spa treatments, or fitness amenities are mentioned in the official website text available. Whether the hotel offers any such facilities cannot be confirmed from the source material, and should be checked with the property before booking if this is a priority.

### Meetings and events

The website text does not describe meeting rooms, conference facilities, or event spaces at Astana Palace. No capacities, room names, or event services are stated, so this cannot be detailed here. Organisers should contact the hotel directly to ask about any such facilities.

### Awards and memberships

No awards, certifications, or hotel-group or association memberships are stated on the official website text reviewed. Nothing can be reported in this category.

### Prices and booking

The official website text does not state room rates, seasonal pricing, cancellation policies, or booking terms. Current rates and availability should be checked on the hotel’s official site or through a booking platform, as no prices are given in the source material used for this profile.

### Location and getting there

Astana Palace is addressed at Tamar Mepe V square, 30A, in Gori, the administrative centre of the Shida Kartli region of Georgia. Gori lies roughly 85 kilometres west of Tbilisi along the main highway toward Kutaisi and western Georgia, a drive that typically takes in the region of 90 minutes to two hours depending on traffic, meaning Tbilisi International Airport is at a broadly similar driving time from the hotel.

Because the address places the hotel on one of Gori’s central squares, it sits within the compact core of the town, generally within walking distance of landmarks such as the Stalin Museum and Gori’s historic centre, and not far from Gori Fortress on its hill above the town. Exact walking times to any specific sight are not stated by the hotel itself and should be confirmed locally.

### Good to know

- The hotel is located in Gori, Shida Kartli, not in Tbilisi.

- The address is Tamar Mepe V square, 30A, a central square in Gori.

- Gori is the nearest major town to Tbilisi International Airport along the Tbilisi–Kutaisi highway corridor.

- No room counts, categories, or amenities are published in the website text reviewed.

- No named restaurants or bars are listed for the property in the source material.

- No wellness, pool, or fitness facilities are confirmed or denied by the available text.

- No prices or booking terms are stated; check the official website or a booking platform for current rates.

- Travellers seeking detailed facts beyond the address should contact the hotel directly, as its public text is limited.
