Guesthouse Gio was the best place we stayed in Georgia and one the best travel experiences we've ever had. Tina and Irina are the kindest and most hospitable hosts one could imagine and they made our stay in Mestia truly special. We highly recommend staying here, and the longer the better! Tina is a wonderful cook and breakfast portions were beyond generous. In addition to suggesting things to do and places to eat in Mestia, Tina was also tremendously helpful in arranging a day trip to Ushguli...

Off the busy area, but within walking distance to city center and everything. Our room was in the back of the hotel and had to go up one floor without elevator. Breakfast was OK. Things need to get more organized in the restaurant.

Great views and clean rooms. Just a bit outside the town center, so it’s quiet. Could have had more info on the 4-day hike but overall from Mestua to Ushguli but nice place for a night. Breakfast was big. Private bathroom a big plus.
