Mestia offers an abundance of options, from very basic home-stays with shared bathrooms to small family hotels with private facilities and buffet table. Guest-houses differ greatly in size, room quality, location, territory, convenience, meals. There are also several bigger hotels, but most visitors find it more interesting and cost-effective to stay in guest-houses. Mestia has a lot of restaurants and cafes, however they open rather late, so you won’t find breakfast before 10-11 am.

In the smaller villages most guest-houses are very simple, only several offer “deluxe” rooms with private bathrooms. Otherwise you will need to share with other people. All the guest-houses in the villages include half-board in the price and serve excellent home-made breakfasts and dinners. There are no restaurants or cafes, so this is the only option for meals.

You will find almost all of the hotels and guest-houses on Booking.com, so you can choose and book your accommodation yourself.

However there are 3 reasons why you still might want to book your hotel through Svaneti Spirit:

  • Some guest-houses, especially in the smaller villages, are just NOT on Booking.com.

  • Booking.com is not always very clear about the location of the guest-houses, the facilities available, and the general condition of the place. Guests don’t like to write bad reviews for hosts who have been nice to them, so you might never know that the house is partly under construction or far from the centre (crucial for Mestia, Becho and Ushguli which are very sprawled) or that you will share your bathroom with 15 other people, not just 2 or 3 (all houses use electric water boilers to heat water, so there is enough hot water for 3-4 people at a time, others will need to wait 1-2 hours). We will select the best available options based on your requirements and preferences.

  • Booking.com charges a minimum of 18% on all bookings. We have direct contracts with guest-houses which means that we generally get better price offers from the owners.
