What makes Hillside Mestia Cottagehouse special and how we welcome our guests Welcome to Hillside Mestia Cottagehouse — your cozy mountain retreat in the heart of Svaneti. Our cottage sits peacefully on the hillside, just a short walk from the center of Mestia, but far enough to give you space, quiet, and views you’ll never forget. Surrounded by wildflowers in summer and snow in winter, it’s the kind of place where you can truly breathe, slow down, and reconnect with nature. The cottage itself is built with love — warm wood interiors, handmade textiles, and little details that reflect the spirit of Svaneti. Whether it’s the scent of pine in the rooms, the soft lighting at dusk, or the gentle creak of the wooden floors, everything here invites you to relax and feel at home. We’ve made sure the space has everything you need — a fully equipped kitchen if you’d like to cook, a small library with books about the region, and comfy beds with big blankets for chilly mountain nights. On sunny mornings, you can sip coffee on the porch with views of the peaks, and in the evenings, we’re always happy to share local wine or help you find the perfect trail for tomorrow. What truly makes this place special, though, is the way we welcome our guests. We’re not a hotel — we’re a home. We greet everyone with a smile, we’re always here to help with local tips or just to chat, and we genuinely love sharing the beauty of this region with others. If you’re curious about Svan culture, traditional dishes, or where to find the best mountain view, we’ll be right there to guide you. At Hillside Mestia Cottagehouse, we hope you arrive as a guest — and leave feeling like a friend.

Welcome to Hillside Mestia Cottagehouse! We’re so happy you’ve chosen to stay with us and can’t wait to share a little piece of Svaneti with you. Hosting travelers from around the world is something we truly love — it gives us the chance to meet wonderful people, share our culture, and hear your stories too. For us, there’s nothing better than seeing guests relax into the rhythm of the mountains — whether it’s enjoying a quiet morning with coffee on the porch, setting out for a day of hiking, or returning to the warm comfort of the cottage after an adventure. Outside of hosting, we love cooking traditional Svanetian (Georgian) dishes, tending to the garden, and exploring the trails ourselves — so we’re always happy to recommend hidden spots, local food, or a peaceful path off the beaten track. We hope your stay here brings you calm, joy, and a real connection to this beautiful place. If you need anything at all, just let us know — we’re always nearby and happy to help. Welcome to the mountains — we’re so glad you’re here! — The Hillside Mestia Cottagehouse Family
