Ensana Hotels has expanded its international footprint with the opening of its first property in Georgia, marking a significant milestone in the company's European growth strategy. The newly launched Ensana Sairme South is a four-star hotel located in the renowned spa town of Sairme, bringing the group's signature medical wellness concept to one of Georgia's best-known thermal destinations.

Situated at an altitude of over 900 metres in the Caucasus Mountains, the 154-room property combines wellness, preventive healthcare, and nature-based experiences. Known for its thermal and mineral springs for more than six decades, Sairme is positioned as an emerging destination for travellers seeking holistic health and wellness experiences.

Commenting on the expansion, Frank Halmos, CEO of Ensana Hotels, said Georgia's exceptional natural healing resources and growing appeal as a travel destination align well with the company's long-term strategy. He noted that the country's forested landscapes, rich cultural heritage, hospitality, and medically beneficial thermal and mineral springs make Sairme a promising destination for health spa tourism.

Natural healing resources remain central to Ensana's wellness philosophy. The thermal water in Sairme is widely recognised for therapeutic treatments, particularly for musculoskeletal conditions, while the region's naturally carbonated mineral water has traditionally been used in drinking therapies for liver, kidney, urinary tract, and gastrointestinal health.

The company is also preparing to open its second property in the destination, Ensana Sairme North, following an extensive renovation. The five-star hotel will feature an expanded wellness offering, including indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a hammam, a salt grotto, and modern treatment facilities designed to complement its medical wellness programmes.

Temur Khokhodze, Owner of Sairme Resorts, said the partnership with Ensana represents a strategic investment in the destination's future. He added that the expansion of the hotels and therapeutic offerings will strengthen the region's tourism appeal while creating new opportunities for local communities.

Located approximately three-and-a-half hours from Tbilisi and close to Kutaisi International Airport, Sairme offers convenient access for international travellers. In addition to wellness treatments, guests can enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, and paddling amid the surrounding mountain and forest landscapes.

Launched in 2019, Ensana Hotels is Europe's leading health spa operator, with properties across the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, and now Georgia. The company is also set to expand into Germany and Italy later in 2026, further strengthening its portfolio of wellness destinations across Europe.
