Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomThe food was unbelievable. We stayed here for three nights and the wife of the family kept cooking us up these insanely delicious Georgian meals. There was something completely different for each breakfast and dinner. The location for ski touring is great too. Truly ski in and ski out. Rooms are basic but comfortable. Can’t depend on the WiFi but honestly the village is so quaint and beautiful to explore there’s no time to use the WiFi anyway!

AustraliaThis is my second time staying in this guesthouse. Very cosy guesthouse in the middle of Ushguli. Comfortable and warm rooms with a shared bathroom. Loved the dinner and breakfast on offer (30 GEL per person for dinner and 25 GEL for breakfast) - it was delicious and very filling. Highly recommend.

AustriaAs the name says this place is an authentic Svanetian house which even has its own stone tower that can be climbed if one is not afraid of height. The family is extremely helpful, the breakfast superb. A great place with a wonderful atmosphere, of course with limited comfort as it is a century old stone house. But everything is very clean.

United KingdomWe visited Tbilisi, and hiked from Mestia to Ushguli, but never had such delicious food. I strongly suggest to have dinner there. We forgot to say that one of us is vegan. They provided us additional vegetable food. The hosts are very generous and welcoming. Inside of the house is full of interesting decorations, we have not seen elsewhere. If we visit Ushguli, we will definitely stay in Old House again.

Staying in a Svan Tower in Ushguli ist a one in a life time experience. It feels so authentic. The breakfast is amazing and the family super kind.

GeorgiaIt’s the brilliant place to stay in Ushguli. I felt like I was visiting my family. Siblings are amazing! As the parents are :) Highly recommend to have a dinner and breakfast, it’s all natural, homemade, the cuisine of the Mother of the house is incredible, makes you happy. You can see how the cheese is being made and how the cows are going to the fields in the morning. You can also buy beautiful wood art work made by the Father. We are happy that we had a chance to meet this beautiful family 🤍

CanadaThe guesthouse was full with 12 guests but with one bathroom. It is pretty crowded to have one bathroom for so many people. Dinner was good and enough with protein serving. However, we had much better food on the trek in other guesthouses.
Owners operators are helpful, pleasant and accommodating. The property is clean and welcoming. Very close to the center where all the cafes and bars are. They even have their own defense tower that we have visited. They serve dinner and breakfast for additional fees and best of all they have their own transportation van that takes you to Mestia. It was very convenient and fast.

NetherlandsThe shower and toilet facilities are on the fish floor for all the guests which might be crowded, but was not an issue for us
We did the Mestia - Ushguli trail, Old House was one of the best places we stayed at. The hospitality of the family, kindness and care for the guest is remarkable. They arranged the transportation for us back to Mestia, and cooked the most delicious dinner on the trail despite the challenge of no electricity for half a day due to the road construction. We felt like a part of the family - HIGHLY recommended!
