Selected by the GTour desk from the national register of licensed places. Published November 2026; reviewed yearly. No place pays to appear.

Mtskheta-Mtianeti stretches north from Georgia’s old capital of Mtskheta into the Greater Caucasus, taking in the ski resort of Gudauri, the Mount Kazbek gateway town of Stepantsminda, and the vineyard villages of the Mukhrani valley. It is one of the most visited regions outside Tbilisi, drawing travellers on the Georgian Military Highway as well as skiers, hikers and day-trippers from the capital. Hotel supply ranges from mountain lodges built for the winter season to smaller guesthouses and chalets aimed at year-round visitors.

This list was compiled by the GTour desk from the national register of licensed accommodation, cross-checked against each property’s own listing. Selection criteria were location, an established presence in the register, and what the place offers a traveller — not price, star rating or any paid placement.
