Commenting on Aimbridge EMEA managing Alliance Palace, David Anderson – divisional president at Aimbridge, said:
“We believe Eastern Europe has tremendous untapped potential. Tourism to the region continues to surge as the travelers seek out exciting new experiences and destinations, and their expectations for accommodations with outstanding, consistent service – exactly what Aimbridge is known for – remains high.

Part of the global Wyndham Hotels & Resorts Chain, Aimbridge signed the management agreement to operate the highly anticipated property Wyndham Grand Residences Batumi Gonio in 2024, with the complex due to open later this year.
‘Wyndham Grand Residences Batumi Gonio’ comprises several hotels, including the Wyndham Grand Residences Aqua Batumi Gonio; the Wyndham Grand Residences Family Club Batumi Gonio; and the Wyndham Grand Residences Riviera Batumi Gonio.
The properties, which sit in close proximity across one complex owned by European Village, are currently under construction and expected to open spring 2026.
The hotel complex is being developed in the luxury segment, offering All-Inclusive and Ultra All-Inclusive services.
Commenting on the signing, divisional president at Aimbridge, David Anderson, added:
“The three Wyndham Grand Residences are all within 900m of each other, stretching from the beautiful coastline and up into the hillside behind, and offer a variety of different accommodation options to suit families, couples and individual travellers.”
The Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio complex will offer a variety of accommodation options, including one and two-bedroom suites and duplex family rooms in the Wyndham Grand Residences Aqua; studios, apartments and duplexes at the Wyndham Grand Residences Family Club; and three-bedroom townhouses, as well as apartments and duplexes, at the Wyndham Grand Residences Riviera.

At the time of the signing announcement, Archil Partenadze, General Director of European Village Holding, commented:
"Luxury hotels are just beginning to emerge in Georgia, and currently, there are no All Inclusive services in the country, despite the high demand.
“We are immensely proud to introduce the first hotel complex of this scale. Partnering with Aimbridge, the global leader in independent hotel management, is a great honour for European Village.
“The collaboration between Aimbridge and Wyndham Grand, the pinnacle brand of Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, brings world-class hotel services to Georgia. This partnership represents a significant milestone in advancing high-end tourism and hospitality in our country."
