The door didn’t have a lock and didn’t close properly. Not that I was worried about anything getting stolen because the place can only host a few guests. However, the grandad of the family woke me up in the middle of the night by opening my door, probably because he assumed the room was empty.

Outstanding food. Host organised a car back to Mestia for us the following day which saved the faff of having to deal with the Ushguli taxi mafia.

It was the second time when we stayed at Mshvidoba, and everything was great. Although we were a big group (8 people) we fit in comfortably. The breakfast was delicious and the hosts were very friendly, as last time.

Very warm and welcoming family, who offered us freshly baked cake and tea on arrival, stored our luggage and organized transfer back to Mestia. Room and bathroom were very clean/cleaned frequently, the shower was hot, the bed super comfy, and the food delicious. Madloba!

Very nice guesthouse, with some of the best food we had on our trip!

Not really a "didn't like" but rather advice for other travelers: they offer horse tours but do note you must pay for your own horse + the guides horse + guide fee. The sign in the guest house didn't make that clear, so we almost didn't have enough cash 😅. Also bring earplugs :)

Really historic stay here in Ushguli. The hosts and family are incredibly nice and we really felt at home. The food is also amazing here 😍. They can help you with everything. We enjoyed our stay.

There were a couple of gigantic spiders and because the ceiling is so high, you can’t reach them. A bit scary to sleep knowing that one might crawl over you. But the room itself was very clean!

The hosts are extremely nice, polite and very helpful. My husband left a personal belonging and with only two days in Tbilisi, they figured a way to get it to us before we left. The homemade meals are absolutely delicious! It’s a home stay unlike the new properties coming up so very traditional!

The second shared bathroom did not work properly. The first one, while very clean, was often busy. They do not speak English, and at times it can become difficult to communicate, but you always find a way in the end.

They are very welcoming, the house is very clean and Lela cooks delicious food. They can be very helpful in organising movements around Ushguli, not an easy task to do on your own.

This is a great place to stay in Zhibiani (the upper village). The location is fantastic and the welcome is amazing. The family is so friendly and the meals are delicious. Frequent offers of tea when you return after a wander are great. I have stayed here previously (twice) and returned because I loved it so much... Thanks David

A privilege to stay in this historic farmhouse set in the midst of Ushguli Towers. Gorgeous food and lovely hosts. Thank you

The owner was amazingly kind to our group--we rented out the full place (3 bedrooms, 2 people in each room) and she prepared us amazing food. Cake and tea when we arrived fresh from the trail, a fantastic dinner, and a lovely breakfast the next morning. She also helped arrange our car back to Mestia--so nice to not have to bargain with the drivers at the main square! When we checked on the price, it was better than what others had paid for the same ride. She was very kind and accommodating.

Amazing homestay with super friendly host which will make you feel like litteraly at home. Best homemade food we had in 3 weeks in Georgia. The only downside is we couldn't stay longer :)

By far the best accommodation we had in Georgia! Lela and her family are super welcoming and attentive. They can help with anything (if you're looking for a taxi, a horse ride or if you want to do your laundry). But what made our stay so special was definitely breakfast and dinner time. The food is delicious, fresh made and worth every Lari. Lela served us also great vegetarian options (sometimes the vegetarian menues get repetitive while traveling, not here!). And we enjoyed those great meals with some other guests who where also super nice! So if you are looking for a guesthouse with family atmosphere, clean and comfortable rooms, great food and lovely hosts, you found it!

Absolutely amazing hospitality! We loved our stay! Thank you!

Awesome place in Ushguli! We came here for ski touring and always woke up really early, but that was no problem for our host and she kept surprising us with the wonderful breakfasts! Not the mention the delicious dinners! The check in was really flexible - we came one day late and that was no problem.

The building was a bit older, however we would absolutely stay here again as it had much more character than some of the newer buildings outside of the old part of town. You do have to walk or ski 200 meters from the plowed road on a pathway to the guest house.

Mshvidoba was an incredible base camp for our ski touring trip in Ushguli. You could ski from the guest house for almost all of the best ski tours in the area. Easily on the short list of most scenic ski in ski out locations in the world. In winter 2024, dinner was 30 and breakfast was 25 gel per person. Tons of homemade food. Several hungry skiers could never finish it all. Vegetarian options were possible if requested. It was surrounded by Svan towers too.

We had amazing time at Mshudoba family house. The best food in whole Svaneti!

It was a very pleasant stay- Rooms were clean and neat, we could take a nice hot shower after a long trip. What’s more- host was very welcoming and prepared delicious food for us. We definitely felt taken care of. Obviously views were breathtaking and I can recommend staying in this płace!

A little bit hard to get to with car (narrow streets in whole village) - however not a big issue :)

Very nice homemade breakfast made by host in the morning :)

Best food we had the whole time we were in Svaneti. We were the only people eating dinner that night and there were loads of tasty dishes for us. The host was very nice and although she spoke only a little English she tried to help us with Google translate and her children spoke English. She also helped us organise a taxi back to Mestia. And the Wi-Fi actually worked well!

I travel a lot, staying in guesthouses or apartments, but I have never ever stayed at the place like this. Absolutely amazing...You do not feel like guest, you feel like member of their big family. If I could put 20 points I will do it. 10 is not enough. Perfectly cleaned, food was delicious, we took breakfast and dinner for 20€/ day....absolutely worth it....varieties of meals impossible to eat so huge ammount. Always fresh. Warm family athmosphere. You can order transfer from Mestia or to Shkhara glacier, also horse riding. We have found new friends there and really hope to come back again.

The village of Ushguli is a very special place, we recommend staying there at least one night. Mshvidoba guest house is in the middle of town, making you feel like part of the place for a little bit. Host speaks little English, but she is very very nice (we loved her) and will do everything possible to make you feel comfortable. The kids speak English if needed. The bathroom is shared, but we never had to wait to use it. Room is comfortable. We had dinner there one night. Food was good, but it did not seem enough for two people after a whole day of hiking, so we needed to ask for something else, which they provided with no problem. Host can also provide a ride back to Mestia
