    Located at the upper end of Usghuli in close proximity to Lamaria Church, the accommodation offers the perfect starting point for tours to the Shkhara Glacier. On the way to the glacier you come by at the art museum of the painter Fridon Nizharadze, which you should definitely pay a visit to. Here, old Svaneti symbolism is interwoven with surrealistic motifs. Likewise, the Ethnographic Museum is just 1 minute away. The hosts are absolutely fantastic! Anyone who hasn't experienced Svaneti hospitality yet has an opportunity. Be sure to book breakfast for 20 GL - there is a new surprise on the table every day. Horses can be booked for tours and the nature is breathtaking at 2200 m altitude. You should take some time with you to let the deceleration of the world take effect on you. (and also cash - there are no ATMs in Ushguli and you cannot pay by card anywhere).

    The owners were extremely nice! We payed just for the stay (food was available at their restaurant) so it was also really affordable. And we were the only guests so had the whole place to ourselves!

    There was only one electrical outlet in the room. A table beneath it would be good so you can place your phone somewhere while charging.

    The location of the guesthouse was great, the family very nice and the facilities very clean. You can eat very delicious food in their Restaurant Stumari. They organized a taxi back to Mestia together with other guests. In the end it was as expensive as taking the marshrutka. For us it was perfect, since we ran out of cash (there is no bank or ATM in Ushguli) and we could pay them when we arrived in Mestia.

    The facilities are quite basic, however enough to spend couple of days at the authentic village environment in the mountainous part of Georgia. Also having a bit more local decorations would be nice in the rooms.

    The hosts are amazing! Welcoming and helpful, I would definitely go back to stay at their place. The hostel owners also have their restaurant nearby which is quite good for arranging food during the trip.

    The main problem for me was that we did not understand about pricing for breakfast and dinner. The owners have changed their policy about breakfast- it is not included in the room price and you don't not how much did it cost before paying. The same about a dinner. There are 2 shared showers for several (I think 8) rooms. While we were there one was broken.

    The guest house's location is excellent and the owners are very kind and helpful. But they don't speak English. If you know some Russian, it will help to communicate. The rooms are very simple (imagine a comfortable hostel) but it is totally ok because the main thing to do in Ushgully is go for walks and be outside. All you need after that is a hot shower and bed. And that you can have at the place.

    Its in the village a bit up hill with an amazing backdrop of mountains. Everything was clean, showers were warm and handy after a day of outdoors and walking. There is also a shared sitting area which was good to lounge in.

    Guest house Riho is the best. You feel very welcome, your host Natali will take care of you very well. She is a great cook, we were totally full after every dinner and breakfast. The room exceeded our expectation, the bed was really soft. The guest house has also two terraces with a view to Usghuli which is a nice plus.

    We didn’t have access to a shared kitchen and were told to eat in the restaurant, which is run by the daughter-in-law. The food there was very tasty. The bed was a bit uncomfortable (indented mattress).

    The guesthouse is located towards the end of Ushguli so there is an amazing view of the mountains. The rooms were clean and cozy. The showers were hot- perfect for the cold weather. Bring your own towels and soap. Though the owners weren’t able to speak English we were still able to communicate with them at a basic level. All in all it was a nice and authentic experience!

    The lady running the house was a bit pushy to go visit her restaurant for dinner. We agreed on the time and when we arrived in the evening there was nothing prepared. We just ordered from a menu, lol. The room itself only had one electrical outlet, so you can't charge two phones at night. Shared shower/toilet ran out of toiler paper fast when a group of german bikepackers showed up.

    The location was great, it's right next to the road that leads to the glacier. Also if you just keep walking down, you will walk across the entire Ushguli. The room was clean and very basic, only one bed and one chair, but the views from the room were great. Everything was very simple, but for the price it's a good place for one night.
