Reviews of Manoni Ratiani's Guesthouse

wonderful people! Beautiful location, fabulous food!

Expected great things given the reputation, instead got "good". Location is fine as still only a 10-15 minute picturesque walk from the centre, and right on the road to Chaaladi glacier and the airport. Rooms are spacious and mine had a nice enough view over to Mestia and the towers. Nice that the shower had a small boundary preventing water flowing all over the bathroom floor like a wet room. When present, staff were friendly. Was much more family oriented rather than younger or solo travellers. There's kitchen facilities if you want.

Communication was a real tough point as staff, when present, spoke limited English. Not much use for local advice and pointers. Nearly lost access to my room one night when they'd kept the key to fix a smelly drain but made no plans to return it to me.

The double bedroom was quite nice, the view was amazing and the terrace was a pleasant place to sit.

They changed our reservation on the day of our arrival without notice and explanation. We has to sleep in a 6-bed-room without an own bathroom. The shared bathrooms were also clogged. We expected that we wouldn’t have to pay for that night but we did. I also wrote them a couple of days before of our arrival without notice some questions and never received an answer.

Great location close to town and close to the start off the classic Svaneti hiking trail. Eso our host was gracious. The food was really good. The accommodations were clean and very spacious for a guesthouse. The common areas were great. Everything was perfect and we would love to stay again.

nothing

A friendly host, who knows English. Walkable distance from the city centre. Good window view from the room and also the common balcony. You can drink tap water it's clean. It is just named as HOUSE and located behind a hotel from the mainroad

The Room was Huge , it had 6 beds and was on ground floor hence we did not face any problem to shift our luggage on higher floors. They had a restaurant where we requested for breakfast and they tried their best to make us happy especially with kids. They arranged Kellogg's Chocos for kids in breakfast. The Room was well organized and clean and had AC too. Bathroom was big. The View of the Mestia Mountains from 1st Floor of this Guest House was amazing , they had a swing and seating arrangement there where we can play indoor games.

We Travelled all the way from Kutaisi to reach Mestia at around 10.30 pm and we were hungry so did dinner at Laaila Restaurant and it was almost 12 am when we reached the google map location but to our surprise we were not able to find the guesthouse and the phone number of the guest house was not attended at this time. Our Guide did his best to find this guest house as the name Manoni Ratiani is nowhere mentioned on the gate. I Request them to put a name plate at the gate as the hotel is behind the main road so that it can be reached with ease. The Breakfast was booked for 6 adults considering 4 adults and 4 kids .. but the space they reserved was us on day 1 was too small to eat comfortably. There was no space to keep any glass for drinking water .. we requested them and then on day 2 they gave us big table.

Not very much

The hostess was on her mobile phone a lot of the time and despite it being advertised there was no dinner or breakfast available. Also, the owners of the guest house had a big party the night I stayed including fireworks at about 11 pm and they stayed up talking loudly until 2 am.

Gorgeous setting and good value with super lovely host.

Unfortunately my stay coincided with a group who had a party on the terrace next to my room into the early hours of the morning, which made enjoying the area/hiking the next day pretty challenging.

Very kind host, nice and quiet location! Good room and cozy shared terrace!

One of the nights there was a local party in the guesthouse, until 3:30 AM, loud shouting, running etc, they didnt stop even after our asming to stop,impossible to sleep. We were planning to wake up at 5:30 for hiking... Thats why the rating 6. Everything else was good

Friendly staff, good location, definitely worth of the price we paid. Spent 10 days in here in winter, very good breakfasts and dinners (local Georgian meals). And excellent home made chacha :-)

We stayed in a room for 6 people, there are absolutely no racks so in winter it is little bit difficult to dry all these clothes when you get back from skiing.

Breakfast is a typical Georgian one - very delicious! Rooms are different, some have more space, others are a bit tiny.

In one of the houses the canal in bathroom had bad oddors!

Beautiful view, very comfortable apartment for several days with all necessary for comfortable stay. Enough space and beautiful, clean room, tv with wi-if. excellent location, nice and helpful host. Recommend it!

Clean and well located.

Beds were quite small and dated.

Very comfortable bed, nice design.

Thin walls, bit cold at night

Nice and cosy rooms. Great balcony for evening rest.

Common kitchen and the dishes there were dirty.
