Рядом с отелем находится дендропарк - поэтому даже зимой очень чистый и свежий воздух. Персонал очень дружелюбный. Есть охраняемая парковка.

- David (5/5): Passable - Nice and clean place, clean and comfortable rooms. Though a small room for improvement in the bathroom. Water drops accompany you the whole night. Service, especially in the restaurant and cafe, you have to beg to get something you want.
- Erik (9/5): Superb -
- Marika (10/5): Great time! - This is the most stylish hotel in Vanadzor. Located in the perfect place, next to national park and mountains. The view is amazing, rooms are very stylish. The staff is very well trained, the owner is charming. I had a great time I would appreciate if breakfasts started a little earlier than 9:30 am.

- Ванина (9/5): Superb - The hotel was excellent, the room was very clean. The forest was fantastic, like it was from fairy tale. Despite the opulence of the hotel and the beauty of the surrounding nature, you don't feel relaxed in the hotel, it feels like everyone is watching so you don't make a wrong move. The rules are very strict. You don't feel like a welcome guest.
- Artush (6/5): Pleasant - The rooms were clean and well designed. They are located near the forest so the air was very fresh. It is very hot in the rooms during the summer, especially those on the 4th floor. The restaurant was the worst experience; it was very bad, though the breakfast wasn’t as bad. The hotel is very expensive for the services provided. To be honest, I do not recommend this hotel. They have a lot of things to fix before hosting guests. There is no elevator, which is very inconvenient. We stayed for one night, and it was the worst night ever. We did not sleep at all because the room was extremely hot, and there was no AC to cool it down.

- Annie (10/5): A must stay. - Everything was great, but the food was exceptional No hot water due to gas problems in town, still a hotel should cater for unforeseen issues like that.
- Erik (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vahagn (7/5): Good - Modern comfortable rooms, perfect location steps from the nice and cozy garden. Staff should pass trainings for more quality service. Policies for children from 6 y old are not reasonable, they charge you 10000 AMD for extra bed. Overall the hotel is overpriced.

- Yelena (9/5): Amazing stay at Vanadzor. - It's definitely one of the greatest hotels you can stay in Armenia. A place where everything is super cozy, comfortable and relaxing. It was all neat and seemed to be brand new. Staff were friendly and nice. Everything was high quality-the restaurant , the service and the rooms as well. Maybe more facilities need to be added .
- Pavel (10/5): Exceptional - The best hotel in Kirovakan
- Seda (10/5): Excelent hotel with great staff - A real hidden gem in Vanadzor! Stayed for one night and loved everything! The hotel is very new with comfortable rooms, a great restaurant and excellent staff. The hotel has a private park for walks. Keep in mind that the hotel doesn't have an elevator.
- Lusine (10/5): Exceptional - Everything, room design , location, hospitality restaurant menu was unique and food was delicious and sure fresh air in the forest 🍀

- Tony (7/5): Not bad, superb design, I guess the best hotel around - • Wonderful design - Great attention to every detail; • Polite and friendly staff; • Delicious cuisine; • Comfortable bed; • One-Bedroom Suite has a bathtub, which my wife greatly enjoyed! • Partial view - Two-thirds of the view from the window, as promised, was occupied by the forest, but one-third had overflowing garbage cans. • Occasional slow service - Waiting for the order took over an hour on a Friday evening in the half-empty restaurant; • Morning noise - On Saturday around 8 a.m., the silence was disrupted by staff conversations under the windows, and a constant sound signal at the service gate. The gate makes an automatic signal when being opened upon pressing the button.

- Karine (8/5): Best place you can stay in Vanadzor, very new and aesthetic but in need of minor adjustments. - The aesthetic is very modern. The hotel is extremely clean. The food in the restaurant was delicious and the cocktails were prepared by a talented barman. The bed was comfortable and we enjoyed the multiple lounge areas. There was a dog barking throughout the night. The dog is a resident of the hotel and many other guests complained that it bothered their rest. There is also little to no flexibility for checkout, so you must be out by 12 PM. This is a bit frustrating, since check in is at 2PM - so you get less than 24 hours stay per night. Lastly, while the breakfast was delicious - they recently changed from an ala carte menu (with Eggs Benedict choices, etc) to a buffet. The sauna is also full of random objects, and not easily utilized by guests.

- Rita (8/5): Nice setting in Vanadzor - The hotel has a beautiful decoration it is placed in a quiete area of Vanadzor. The fact that the air conditioning does not work. It has a fan which does help to cooler the room, but the air conditioning command that stays on the wall is always off and when we asked the staff about it they said it did no work.
- Vardanyan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kate (10/5): We had a lovely stay and a nice family breakfast with our guests. Highly recommend this hotel. - Proximity to nature and beautiful green scenery, clean and tastefully appointed rooms, comfy beds and linens, thoughtful staff, delicious food, nice ambiance at the restaurant and courtyard, EV charging at the hotel parking, free internet, etc. The hotel is located in a tranquil area, however, the dogs barking all night until the wee hours impacted our sleep, which is not the hotel's fault (the room did not have an AC, so we had to keep the windows open for the night). Other than that we had a fantastic stay at this property and plan to return for longer stays!
- Anna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Narek (10/5): Designer hotel in the forest - I think this is the best luxorious designer hotel you can find in Vanadzor. The staff is handpicked, with excellent service. Location is amazing with forests from all sides. The hotel restaurant was also very high quality, which served us both dinner and breakfast. Very delicious avodaco benedict with smoked armenian trout. The best benefit is large botanical garden near the hotel. And you get free entrance as a horel guest! The room was too warm for us, but at night it got pretty cold. We only didnt like the bedding, as it was too firm for us. But considering the other benefits, younsimply ignore it
- Tigran (10/5): Great stay in one of the best hotels in Armenia - A great boutique type hotel, think one of the first and best one in Armenia. Really like the staff, rooms, food and place!
