Very warm welcome from the host, and they’re very helpful. Tried to contact me before we came. Tamuna is super cool! She’s such a sweet and kind person who’s always energetic.

It’s lovely, cozy and clean! With a good quality restaurant. We can see the snow mountains from our rooms.

Our stay at Lanchvali Inn was absolutely unforgettable! The moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Tamara, the incredible owner. She is one of the most attentive, caring, and passionate hosts we’ve ever met. Tamara truly treats every guest like her best friend or a member of her own family. She helped us with absolutely everything – bringing us fresh fruits, offering sunscreen when we forgot ours, and even giving my son a sun hat so he could explore comfortably. The inn itself is perfectly located on a hill, giving breathtaking views of Mestia, the ancient towers, and the surrounding mountains. Every morning we woke up to that magical view and felt so grateful to be here. The rooms are spotless, cozy, and comfortable, and the entire place has a warm, welcoming atmosphere. And then there’s the restaurant – without a doubt the best food we had in Svaneti! Every dish was prepared with love, full of flavor, and served in generous portions. You can truly taste the passion Tamara and her team put into every meal. If you’re coming to Mestia, do yourself a favor and stay here. Between the stunning location, the amazing food, and Tamara’s unmatched hospitality, this is not just a hotel – it’s a home away from home. We will definitely be back!

I absolutely loved my stay here! The room was perfectly clean, the beds incredibly comfortable, and everything looked exactly like in the photos. The hotel’s location is perfect – the view from it is simply breathtaking. In the hotel's restaurant I had the best ojakhuri of my life – it was absolutely delicious. And the hostess, Tamara, is the warmest and most hospitable person I have ever met, a true embodiment of Georgian hospitality. She even gave us a free tour of a Svan tower, told us about local life and traditions, treated us to homemade wine, met us with a car at the station when we arrived, and walked us back there when we left. Simply a wonderful hostess and an exceptional hotel – if I ever come back to Mestia, I will stay here again for sure!

Tamuna and her husband are super hosts! Discrete yet very attentive, they made our 3-day stay in Mestia wonderful. Their guesthouse is modern, cosy and offers an amazing view on the ancient towers and mountains. Their joint restaurant surprised us with a local savoury breakfast on a splendid terrace. We recommend 100%

Georgia is the best country in the world. Svaneti is the best region of Georgia. Mestia is the best city of Svaneti. This hotel is the best in Mestia. ---> Therefore, this hotel is the best in the world 😁 We traveled there in winter, and our room was perfectly warm. Now planning to visit at least once more in the summer. The hosts are incredibly helpful, hospitable, and kind.

This is a truly brilliant hotel—comfortable, warm and impeccably clean. The view is absolutely stunning, as the hotel is located on top of a hill. The interior is crafted with high-quality materials, giving it the ambiance of a premium hotel. The area is peaceful and quiet. The hotel owners, Ruslan and Tamuna, are incredible—kind, hospitable, and truly welcoming. They greeted us with wine, snacks, and fruit, which was such a thoughtful touch. You can even ask Tamuna to prepare breakfast—she insists on not accepting payment, so leaving a generous tip at the end of your stay is the best way to show your appreciation. The road leading to the hotel is an adventure in itself, especially in winter. It has a life of its own—every day, someone would get stuck on the steep slope. Driving to the hotel during winter can be quite challenging—the incline is very steep and nearly impossible to navigate by car. I tried driving up once in my Subaru Forester on an icy road, and it was a nerve-wracking experience. After that, I decided to park my car at the bottom of the hill and walk up and down daily. The climb (about 10 minutes) was a great workout and added a fun element to the experience. If you enjoy hiking, you’ll find this aspect delightful. Despite the challenging road, the hotel is absolutely worth it. Ruslan helped us transport our luggage to and from the hotel in his SUV and can also drive you and your gear to Tetnuldi or Hatsvali if needed. If you have any questions or need assistance, Ruslan and Tamuna are always there to help. Staying at this hotel feels like visiting close friends. It’s a place I would happily return to again and again. Truly a hidden gem of Mestia.

Nothing. It was 10/10!

We loved our stay at Lanchvali Inn. It was a new, lovingly built property that was super cosy and comfortable. Everything was perfect. Our host was an absolute gem, she clearly puts a lot of her heart and energy into making the Inn what it is. As a bonus, the ‘museum’ and tower were incredibly unique and special and the restaurant next door was delicious, well priced and had a beautiful view. I will continue recommending this place to friends and family for years to come!

It was clean and the staff were very friendly.

We know it is a tradition that in these countries, the shower is not fully separted from the rest of the bathroom... Still we are not very used to it. Maybe in future it will change, as some already have.

The house is located in nature... Though difficult to drive above, it is somewhat the beauty of not being in the crowded town. The owner Tamuna is very friendly and nice. The communication is very efficient. We enjoyed our stay there.

Everything was perfect, wonderful place, very comfortable rooms, beautiful historic area, delicious food and homemade wine in Cafe Lanchvali. We highly recommend!

The wifi was really slow in the evening.

Beautiful place, nice views. Friendly host. It has a cool little museum of an old svaneti clan house with tower. If you have no car, it is a bit of a climb from the center.

Stayed in August 2024

It is a steep street going to the house and therefore it was a bit difficult to get to / from the house on motorcycles.

Modern house with a great location (not on a main street). Special thanks to the owner - she is super friendly and took a great care of us! Absolutely recommended!!!

We were staying in a comfortable room with the view of the mountains. Located on the hill with the Svanetian towers and the museum. You can eat in the nearest cafe and the owner is wonderful. I can really recommend.

We had a little problems reaching the place with our common car because of the steep and poor road. Weak internet connection at the restaurant.

Calm location with nice and willing personnel, good restaurant

Location is great, but be aware that you might not be able to drive all the way to accomodation and might need few metres walk by your own. Owners are very nice and will help you with everything you might need.

The road is a bit tricky to navigate but even then, they provide you with a ride up, or the option to caravan up to the house.

From the moment we got here we felt like part of the family. Hosts go beyond to provide services and ensure you have all you need. All facilities and services were as they said they would be. I would recommend anyone to stay here !!
