A new 100-bedroom Radisson Blu-branded resort is to open in Tsinandali, Georgia, under plans announced by Rezidor Hotel Group - part of the Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group.
The new property will launch in 2014 within the Tsinandali estate in the province of Kakheti - famous for having in the past attracted poets and writers such as Dumas and Pushkin.
New York, US-based architect John Fotiadis will design the building, which will include a spa area spanning more than 1,000sq m (10,764sq ft) and containing treatment rooms.
Details of the layout and facilities within the spa are yet to be confirmed, although it will be located at the top of the hotel overlooking the Greater Caucasus Mountains to the north.
Meanwhile, a spokesperson confirmed that an infinity-edge swimming pool with retractable roof; a gym; and a sauna will also be on offer, along with an outdoor pool in the courtyard.
The Rezidor Hotel Group has plans to use grapes products and wine treatment at the spa in order to make it "more relevant" to the wider Kakheti wine region.
