Emerald Borjomi — Hotel in Samtskhe-Javakheti, Georgia

In short

Emerald Borjomi is a boutique hotel on Meskheti Street in Borjomi, in the Samtskhe-Javakheti region of Georgia. The hotel describes itself as a modern property set in one of the quieter parts of town, built around an indoor heated pool, a restaurant serving Georgian and European dishes, and a small conference space. It markets a four-star symbol (★★★★) on its own website. Rooms are arranged in six categories, all with balconies, and the hotel also organises jeep tours into the surrounding forests and mountains.

The building and its history

The hotel’s own materials do not give a construction date, an architect, or details of an earlier use for the building, so no dated timeline can be offered here. What the hotel does say is that it operates as a “modern boutique hotel” in a peaceful part of Borjomi, close to the town’s central park and to the Romanov Palace.

For context, Borjomi has been known since the nineteenth century as a spa town built around its mineral springs, developed in the Tsarist era when members of the Romanov family built a summer residence there (the Romanov Palace, now Likani Palace, still stands nearby). The town’s central park and its bottling and bathing tradition continue to shape the area’s tourism today, and this is the setting the hotel situates itself within, rather than making any specific historical claim about its own building.

Rooms and suites

According to the hotel’s rooms page, Emerald Borjomi offers six room categories, all with a private balcony:

• Economy Double Room with Balcony — from ₾250 per night. The hotel describes it as a simply furnished double room aimed at guests who want cleanliness, quiet, and budget-friendly comfort.
• Standard Double Room with Balcony — from ₾300 per night. The hotel states this room has mountain views and includes access to the indoor pool, gym, and restaurant, and is suited to couples or solo travellers.
• Queen Room with Balcony — from ₾340 per night. The hotel describes it as designed for restful stays, with a quiet atmosphere and the necessary services.
• Double/Twin Room with Balcony — from ₾300 per night. The hotel calls it a cosy, tastefully arranged room with its own balcony.
• Triple Room with Balcony — from ₾400 per night. The hotel presents it as suited to groups of friends or families travelling together, combining a quiet setting with proximity to nature.
• Family Room with Balcony — from ₾600 per night. The hotel describes it as furnished with extra comfort and space for family stays.

The hotel lists the same six categories on its homepage under “Our Favorite Rooms,” though the prices shown there are not presented in the same order as on the dedicated rooms page; the figures above follow the rooms page, which gives one rate per category. Listed in-room amenities, according to the hotel’s room-services page, include a smart TV, coffee maker, air conditioning, toiletries, a hairdryer, and daily housekeeping. Breakfast is included, per the hotel’s “Why Choose” list on the homepage.
