Latour mestia — Hotel in Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti, Georgia

In short

Latour Mestia is a hotel in the Svaneti town of Mestia, in the Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti region of northwest Georgia. The hotel says its amenities include a restaurant, a bar and a garden, along with a terrace, family rooms, a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free Wi-Fi. The property markets itself mainly to travellers visiting Mestia as a base for exploring Upper Svaneti.

The building and its history

The hotel’s official materials do not give a construction date, architect, or information about an earlier use of the building, so no specific history can be stated here. What can be said with confidence, as general background on the area, is that Mestia is the historic administrative centre of Upper Svaneti, a mountain region known for its medieval stone defensive towers and for the villages of the wider Svaneti valley, including the UNESCO-listed village of Ushguli further up the Enguri gorge. The town has seen significant tourism development over the last fifteen years, including new hotels, a rebuilt airport and an expanded ski area at Hatsvali and Tetnuldi, and Latour Mestia operates within this more recently built hotel stock rather than in a converted historic structure, based on the information published by the hotel itself.

• No official opening date, architect or prior building use is stated on the hotel’s website.
• The hotel presents itself as a purpose-run guesthouse-style hotel rather than a heritage conversion.
• Guests should treat any claims about the building’s age or original function as unverified until confirmed directly with the property.

Prices and booking

The hotel promotes three rate options through its own site. The “Best Available Price Including Breakfast” is described as the hotel’s most competitive rate with breakfast included. “Price Including Breakfast and Dinner” is presented as a flexible half-board rate covering both meals. A third option, referred to as “Hotel Checks Prices on other Online Platforms,” is the hotel’s price-matching promise: if a better rate is found on another platform, the hotel says it will match that price when booked through its own website. Check-in is at 14:00 and check-out at 12:00. Under the hotel’s cancellation policy, cancelling less than three days before arrival incurs a charge equal to one night’s stay, while cancelling more than three days in advance carries no penalty. For current nightly rates, travellers should consult the hotel’s official website or its listed booking channels, as exact prices are not published as static figures.
