    For a far away place like Mestia to get all that the hotel provides is remarkable. This is the place to stay if you are not on a budget

    It was one of the best places we have stayed in. We travel extensively. The warmth of this place and the beauty of the towers at night are haunting memories. We were stuck in a landslide. The hotel ensured an alternative vehicle on the other side of the debris was arranged. Logistically commendable. But most commendable is the hospitality of the manager and way he leads the team. I have no words to thank and express my gratitude for a wonderful stay

    There were a few instances with noisy neighbors for a couple of days. However, we either politely asked them ourselves to turn down the TV or called the reception to report the noise at 2 AM. The managers promptly addressed the situation and informed them of the need to stop such behavior

    My wife and I were absolutely thrilled with our stay at Gistola. Price = Quality = Service – it’s a solid 100 out of 10! It was my wife’s birthday, so I reached out to the hotel manager with a request and a question about how we could pleasantly surprise her and make the occasion special. Manager Tedo was always in touch and handled our wishes and request with great care and attention. Both my wife and I were astonished and delighted when we saw what they had done for us. It was absolutely amazing and will definitely remain a cherished memory. The room was decorated with balloons as I had requested, they made a personalized greeting card, and even baked an entire cake—not just a slice, but a whole delicious and moist cake! They also included a bottle of champagne (even though I hadn’t asked for it!). The room was very warm and cozy, cleaned daily, with fresh towels, gels, and other essentials replaced every day. Overall, this place truly deserves its five-star rating. The transfer service was also remarkable—we were pleasantly surprised by how punctual and efficient it was. The car arrived promptly, and any request for transportation was fulfilled within five minutes. A big thanks to the drivers Vitali and Beki as well. We are already looking forward to returning here for our next vacation. Wishing you prosperity, growth, and kind guests!

    Pool was not working which was the main reason why we chose Gistola hotel, but we received compensation from the hotel staff. It was nice gesture from the hotel and therefore I will recommend the hotel further.

    The swimming pool was not working and we have received half room rate compensation at the check-out which was nice gesture from the hotel staff. The hotel restaurant offered good and quality menu. Bottle of original Gistola qvevri wine was prepared in the room as a complementary welcome drink.

    Very good hotel in the perfect location. We were very positively surprised as there are no other such places in Mestia yet. The staff was very helpful and provided us with nice upgrades as the hotel has not been very busy. Big swimming pool, a new terrace, and good breakfasts. Free shuttle bus to the city center. We will definitely come back.

    Service was amazing. Hotel provides own taxi for free, no charges. Girls on the reception were more than helpful. Even I called the hotel taxi with request of picking up at 02:00 in the night, request was accepted, no charges. Swimming pool was clean and great service also there. Would recommend this hotel to all, who visit Mestia.

    The road to Svaneti Mestia was a bummer. But the amenities in the property boosted our energies

    It’s a hidden jewel in the midst of no man’s land. The manager Ms Maria was polite accommodating to our requests. The place is quiet, ease of check in, clean large beds and toilets, clean sheets, balcony view of mountains was breathtaking. The value for money is EXCELLENT. The hotels have excellent options even for vegetarian families like mine were happy. Must try the pumpkin soup. Millet Kachapuri is their specialty. They even have sauna and heated pool for nominal extra rates. Very lenient with checkout times. Adequate parking spaces

    Its a new, clean hotel with best facilities in this area. Location wise, its walkable distance to center and Museum but a little more distance to Khergiani museum. The view from balcony was awesome, the breakfast was a rich and 'splendid to lavish' spread with a host always attending the layout. The reception girls were very sweet and helpful always. It felt a very new and contemporary styled hotel with big rooms and they have taken care about everything. It's value for comfort and money, recommended.

    Heating couldn't be controlled from the room. Nights are quite cold there.

    Hotel is very clean and very well maintained. We have really enjoyed our stay. Sauna after lengthy mountain hikes was just the thing we needed. Good food in restaurant with traditional svan options available. Really good staff, very helpful, friendly and polite. View is great, falling asleep looking at svan towers!
