Guest Reviews
- Mia (10/5): -
- Zelipoom (9/5): - Close to the central market, metro is not far. Friendly staff. Good but simple breakfast.
- Zoran (1/5): - They gave us rooms that I did not reserve. I took another hotel for myself.
On the second day, they did not give people breakfast.
Do not book this hotel because they are scammers!
- Denis (10/5): - Сергей отличный сотрудник, всегда старался помочь!
- Anna (1/5): Все очень плохо - Отель был бы приемлемым за свою цену, если бы я получила то что ожидала. Полотенца с дырками, грязная сантехника и полное отсутствие звукоизоляции были ожидаемы от отеля такого класса. Мне бы это не помешало - одна ночь между перелетами.
А вот что приехав в 2 часа ночи я вместо забронированного "стандарта" получила номер без окна - был сюрприз.
Вообще без окна, никакого, даже в коридор. Гладкие стены. Вентиляции конечно никакой, внутри находиться невозможно, кислород кончается. На претензию персонал ответил - другого номера нет, не нравится - верну деньги и идите на улицу. В 2 часа ночи.
В итоге не спала, пролежала ночь с полуоткрытой дверью в коридор, чтобы не задохнуться. Никакой компенсации за замену номера на существенно худший предложено не было.
Ах да, и завтрак. Это варёный рис, варёные яйца, несколько кусочков мягкого сыра и кусочек кекса. Все.

- Fuchs (9/5): - Хорошее месторасположение. Всего 5-7 минут пешком до центра. Очень доброжелательный персонал. Старались выполнить любую просьбу. В номере, к сожалению, за 6 дней ни разу не убрали. Я думал, это не предусмотрено за такую не большую цену. Но, оказывается, надо было просто попросить. И еще был довольно медленный интернет. В остальном, все замечательно.
- Anzhelika (8/5): - When we stayed at this hotel, I really liked the tidy and spacious room that we booked. The room was big enough for 4 people and there were comfortable beds. The bathroom was really clean. The hotel supplied it with toiletries, which was really nice. The living room had a TV so we weren't bored during the rainy days. It also had an electric kettle (even though there was another one in the kitchen upstairs) so we could drink tea or coffee anytime we wanted. The breakfast in the hotel was SOOOOOO delicious and nutritious The hotel cheff was pretty kind and attentive to us.The hotel is located really close to the city's centre so it's an advantage to walk and enjoy viewing Yerevan than to order a taxi and get stuck in traffic. I really liked that the hotel provided Free WiFi.
The staff was polite and helpful
So, I may recommend this hotel as cozy and nice place to stay
- Gukasov (10/5): - Хорошо
- Yulia (10/5): An excellent option for the price. - A nice small apartment hotel close to the city center. The staff are very polite and friendly, the room is spacious and has everything you need: a TV, slippers, shower gel, shampoo, a toothbrush, etc. There is also a shared kitchen available with tea, coffee, dishes, and utensils. In the morning, they serve a hearty breakfast. The city center is about a 15-minute walk away, and the main street below has well-developed infrastructure. For its price, it’s a great option! The floor under the table in the room was a little sticky.
- Gioele (8/5): - la struttura è ottima in relazione al prezzo, la colazione inclusa è una colazione salata non a buffet ma c’è una signora che cucina qualcosa di diverso ogni giorno; la parte migliore è stato il nostro host, non sa parlare molto bene l’inglese ma siamo riusciti a scambiarci molte chiacchiere con il traduttore
- Miroslav (10/5): -
- Luz Anamar (9/5): Buen hotel en Yerevan - El personal estuvo pendiente a nuestra llegada y nos recibió sin problema a pesar de llegar un poco tarde. La habitación estaba impecable a nuestra llegada. El desayuno está bien. La ubicación es muy buena. Está a 5 minutos andando de varios sitios turísticos y 15 desde la plaza de la República. Se escucha un poco de ruido del pasillo en las noches, pero realmente esto es cuestión de respeto de los otros huéspedes.
- Maddalena (6/5): -
- Ольга (2/5): очень было некомфортно из-за такой слышимости и страшно. - было омерзительно шумно в ту ночь, что я оставалась в отеле. и ни одного сотрудника, к которому можно было бы обратиться с вопросом, почему несколько мужчин орут так громко с 23 до 2 ночи.
- Iulian (8/5): Ok preț calitate! - Camera spațioasă Căldura asigurată doar de AC

- Judy Laiza (8/5): - I like how the chef cooks for us and she is not angry when we ask for advance breakfast as we have tours. Very nice Nothing but They should serve the breakfast a little earlier
- Fereshteh (8/5): Feeling good.good price and normal.staff of reception is good man - Every thing is good .staff reception is very good

- Viktoriia (6/5): більше хостел ніж готель, хоч і окрема кімната - Кімната наче нормальна, але вигляд наче це хостел і запах неприємний. По-перше сніданок. Це просто жах. Зранку їжа як в обід. Ні кави, ні йогурту, ні круасану ви не знайдете. І не тільки нема вибору, а тобі як в шкільній столовій накладають порцію. Три картоплинки, чи наприклад гречка з яйцем. Вибачте але це взагалі не схоже на сніданок. І їжа максимально проста. Наче бідніше вже нема куди.
Місцерозташування наче в центрі але сам готель (я б сказала хостел) знаходиться десь в дворах і його непросто знайти. За таку ціну могло б бути і щось краще.
- sona (10/5): Great stay overall. The breakfast was complete and very good. The owner was kind and welcoming, and the woman working in - We had a great stay at this hotel.
The breakfast was complete and very good. The hotel owner was very kind, respectful, and welcoming, which made our stay even more pleasant.
The woman working in the kitchen was very clean and prepared delicious breakfasts every day.
One of the best parts of this hotel was the shared kitchen. It was very clean, well-organized, and fully equipped. Having access to it helped us save money by cooking our own meals instead of eating out.
The location was excellent, very close to the main sightseeing attractions and also near affordable chain supermarkets.
Overall, everything was excellent and we would definitely recommend this hotel.
- Alina (10/5): - Очень отзывчивый хозяин гостиницы и дружелюбный персонал. Мы заселились очень поздно, тем не менее нас дождались. Был уютный и тихий номер с видом. Также вкусный завтрак) 🍳
- Anush (10/5): -
- LIUDMILA (10/5): Очень чистые номера,вкусные завтраки, персонал поможет при любом вопросе - Местоположение отличное,чистый номера и приветливый персонал
- Leandro Romeo Florens (7/5): -
- catharina (10/5): - Il ragazzo alla reception era gentillissima. Aveva la moglie olandese (io sono olandese)
- Paolo (1/5): Per accomodò.. - Niente Mi hanno dato una stanza piccola senza finestra e maleodorante .
- Paolo (6/5): Hotel tranquillo - La stanza spaziosa con l'essenziale.. discreta la pulizia... 15 minuti a piedi per piazza della repubblica I servizi e la colazione molto semplice e ripetitiva
- Tharwat (1/5): A completely misleading and uncomfortable stay with bad conditions, no respect, broken promises, and - nothing The property looks nothing like the photos. We were given a room with no windows, and the bathroom smelled terrible. People were talking loudly in the hallway at 4 AM, and the breakfast tasted like cigarettes. Nothing about our stay was good, and there was no respect shown at all.
We trusted the owner and booked an additional night in advance because he promised to change our room, but the new room was exactly the same—no ventilation. He then refused to cancel the booking or refund our money. We ended up leaving without even sleeping the night we were charged for.
- Magdy (10/5): - Excellent hotel
- Liudmila (1/5): Приехали в отель, который бронировали за 2 дня до приезда. Выбирали отель, так как указана круглосуточная стойка регистр - Ничего!
- Lizi (10/5): -
- Vardan (10/5): -
- Karine (7/5): -
- GEORGE (7/5): Name incorrect. - Why is this called "Express Hotel"? It is not called that as theres not even 1 sign to indicate that and I had problems finding the place. I had to ring for them to direct me and help me reluctantly. Its not on a main road and very obscure to find to be honest.
Tv and light weren't working either.
- Max (4/5): -
- Kryl (8/5): - Ubytování je umístěno v dobré lokalitě v docházkové vzdálenosti centra i zastávek autobusu a metra. Poblíž dostupný trh i obchody a restaurace. Pokoj jednoduchý,ale nic víc jsme nepotřebovali. Snídaně,které paní připravovala,nám chutnaly.
- Aleksandr (1/5): - Хороший , преветливый персонал в номере чисто Ужасный туалет с душем и матрас
- Fanani (10/5): - Ubicazione e personale accogliente
- Seyed Amirhossein (1/5): -
- Likelive4Travel (9/5): U get what u pay for - Location. Good value of money. Ideal on budget and short stay. Cozy veranda. Some rooms without window. Could be more facilities. Also breakfast could have some additions, get basic.
- Jose Antonio Esquembre (7/5): Un hotel sin pretensiones pero limpio y muy agradable. - La habitación es cómoda y limpia y con detalles de aseo. El muchacho de recepción es amabilisimo y muy servicial. Muy bien por él. Es difícil de encontrar porque está entre callejuelas sin acceso claro.
- Alex (10/5): -
- Konstantin (9/5): - Хороший небольшой отель, останавливаемся не 1-ый раз, Удобное расположение в центре города, рядом продуктовый магазин и рынок, обменник, аптека, пекарня, недалеко парк с аттракционами для детей. Персонал приветливый, оперативно решает вопросы. У нас был поздний check-out почти на 6 ч, нам пошли навстречу. Завтрак домашний, порционный, на террасе либо у себя в номере. Вся техника в номере работает, кондиционер - не шумный, нам даже номер охладили перед заездом. Таксистам иногда сложно его найти. Вход в отель со двора, нет вывески.

- Andrey (2/5): -
- Alessandro (10/5): - Smooth check in and nice and helpful hosts. Nice little balcony to enjoy the breakfast with the other guests.
- Mohammad Kawchar (7/5): -
- Diana (10/5): - Спасибо! Очень вежливый менеджер, готовы решить любые вопросы, очень вкусные завтраки, отличное местоположение, номер хороший, все удобства, даже стиральная машинка есть на кухне) еще раз спасибо чудесному менеджеру! Можно оставить чемоданы на время, если нужно после выселения. Рекомендуем от души❤️ Небольшие проблемы с душевой лейкой, держатель упал, но это не критично, решаемо) просто маленький момент
- Mohammad Kawchar (7/5): -
- giovanni_c_ (10/5): - This hotel definitely doesn't deserve a 7, at least an 8...that's why I'm going to give a 10 :)
Clean spacious room with two comfortable chairs and flat-screen TV; very comfortable mattresses which is important.
The manager was very friendly and flexible to made our room ready before check-in time after we had a long night trip, and we really appreciated it.
I work remotely and WiFi was very reliable most of the time.
The rate is very competitive and a fresh made breakfast is included (eggs, rice, salad, homemade cakes, sausages) which is totally a plus.
Moreover there is a sunny veranda where to enjoy the breakfast and a washing machine.
I totally recommend this hotel! /
- William (9/5): -
- Раджаб (10/5): - Понравилось местоположение. В отеле чисто. Очень отзывчивый персонал. Не плохие завтраки.
- Suren (10/5): - Все было очень хорошо ! Место положения супер ! Было чисто ! Цена качество соответствует!
- ALAN (9/5): -
- Toros (10/5): I'll repeat visit again for sure. - Excellent and comfy place!!
- Vardan (10/5): - Просторные номера, чисто, близко о центра
- Marina (1/5): Свинское отношение собственника и персонала - Итак, если хотите максимально испортить отдых, вам сюда.
1. Вынужденно выбрала этот отель, тк других вариантов в приемлемых ценах просто не было. Это был день концерта Дженнифер Лопес
2. Я планировала оплатить 2 дня пребывания в отеле, сказали, можно любым способом, но, оказалось, терминал не работает. У меня налички было мало, мне сказали, можно оплатить один день за 55000, я отдала 60000 драм (!!!!). Сдачи, конечно, не было. Чек потребовала, а так мне бы его не дали.
3. Сначала мне предложили конуру без воздуха вообще, с печальным окном в другое помещение. Без кондиционера, хотя в описании был указано его наличие! На мои вопросы мне обещали принести... Вентилятор!!!
4. Я случайно увидела пустой номер рядом, где был работающий кондиционер и потребовала его, без удовольствия, но согласились.
5. После концерта вернулась в гостиницу, зажмурив глаза от печального зрелища унылой комнаты уснула. Завтрак - гречка, сосиска, капуста, грязный, липкий стол в ошметках арбуза.
6. Собираю вещи, понимая, хоть куда, только не здесь, стучит администратор: "Заплатите за второй день". Я говорю, что я съезжаю. Время 10 утра. Мне: "Тогда минуточку... (сбегал куда-то) Тогда вам надо заплатить ещё 60000 драм!" Это 25200 в рублях, - за этот сарай. В этот момент съезжают девчонки, спрашиваю, сколько у вас сутки - 60000др, тогда почему у меня 120000др, спрашиваю. Мне говорят, правила бронирования такие))
7.Я предложила вызывать полицию, ничего доплачивать вам не буду, опять убежал. Я собрала вещи и ушла без спешки. Весь день мне писали и звонили с разных номеров с угрозами, обращались по фамилии, шантажировали, пугали, что на границе меня не выпустят, написали нашему послу и ещё куда-то.
8. Очень хозяин разобиделся, что не удалось дважды на мне заработать.
9. Признаю, свою ошибку, что зря не заблокировала сразу третий его номер и вступила в переписку. Это было зря, нервы себе и ему портила. Грязь, отношение персонала, попытки нагреть клиента, угрозы, шантаж
- Christian Voelker (8/5): Good spacious rooms in modest area - Very spacious room situation with seperate AC in the two bedrooms. In the summer heat very convenient. Local breakfast made to order to eat at the green balcony or in the room. Hard to find entry in the backstreet. The noisy main street in front of the hotel. Surrounding area very modest.
- Arvin (7/5): A surprisingly pleasant stay! Nothing fancy but nice staff and good value for money - Sergei was very polite and attentive, always around to help out. Room was clean, with wardrobe, fridge and decent a/c. Healthy and tasty breakfast out on the verandah was enjoyable. Close to Republic square, shops, restaurants and markets. Sign needs updating! Don't follow the google maps location - it's wrong; follow the map on Booking.com and look for a sign that says MBM Hotel. Noisy neighbours in the afternoon but was quiet at night. No bedside lamps.
- Andreas (8/5): Very good - Very comfortable bed. Nice and clean room Noisy in the afternoon, quiet the rest of the time
- Vinesh (1/5): Bad -
- Sheila (5/5): Nice location, but room for improvement - We love the location, close to Republic Square, with easy access to restaurants, grocery stores, and the park. There’s no daily cleaning service and no complimentary coffee or water provided. Drinks are also not included with breakfast. We requested a change of the comforter as it wasn’t clean, while they acknowledged the request, it was never replaced.
- Aleksandre (10/5): Good hotel friendly stuff beautiful location! -
- Evgeny (1/5): Bad - Nothing at all I didn't find the place and the taxi driver, who was so cute, helped me but we failed l. And no one answered either by phone or IM. I had to book another hotel to stay with my little son at 6 a.m.
- Almaida (1/5): Bad -
- Sam (8/5): Very good -
- Navid (8/5): Very good - The staff were friendly and Sergei was really helpful and polite.
- Carol (7/5): Good value for money and wonderful outdoor terrace where you can sit and eat breakfast siP drinks - breakfast was good and loved sitting on the outdoor terrace for breakfast.
- Andrei (9/5): Decent hotel with spacious room in city center - Property is close to city center. Staff is friendly and helpful but with limited English skills but no problems with Google Translate. Can walk within 10-20 min to most historical spots. Address might be a bit hard to find since hotel entrance is just a small narrow door in the back of the building. On the door it says MBM hotel. Nowhere is the name Express Hotel mentioned or even on Google Maps search.
- Tie (2/5): Very poor - Its convenient near the city Poor service ..and surrounding noise are too loud
No one pick up the phone when need to ask something and can't speak english to communicate
- Arago (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kryaks (10/5): Exceptional -
- Paola (10/5): Kind staff and amazing hotel - i liked that the room was big and the bathroom was cool. The boys from the staff were really kind and helped me with everything. The hotel is in the city centre and everything is nearby. I loved the stay and had no problems at all, the bed was comfy too ❤️ I liked everything, the staff was kind, friendly and helpful
- Немања (7/5): Good - Room was clean. No mirror in toilet. Bad neighbourhood. I paid with cash and did not get change back. It was less then 3 euros but it's not professional.
- Fernand (5/5): place to sleep only - the location is good and the staff is excellent the kitchen is not good, the price is not suitable for the other competitors
- Martin (10/5): comfortable - I am pleasured by this Hotel, the hotel is in central place of Yerevan, 15 minutes by walk to republic square and other places, pretty comfy rooms, with AC, TV, freezer, the hotel have balcony and kitchen for self using, especially i want to notice, that administration was very kind to us and very helpful, we enjoy it
- Javorská (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice accomodation, I can recommend it. Close to the center
- Bagherirekhne (10/5): Exceptional - Location
- Rihab (8/5): Great - Hotel was convenient in all means
Above all the staff and i specify here mr martin who was very cooperative and professional
He did all his best to help us in all our concerns
- Hossam (1/5): Bad - Staff was friendly The room was too noisy, seems there is a Gym next door or something
The location of the hotel hard to reach as there is no clear banner outside with the express hotel name
The window of the room and the bathroom was looking at the seating area.
- G.avag (5/5): Passable - Room and bathroom are spacious and very basic but have necessary things for staying, including free toiletries. For the price I paid, it was tolerable. Btw they accept credit cards, and not only cash. Location is about 20 minutes walk to centre. It is not Express hotel! There is no such thing in the area. Address is for some place called either MBC Hotel or similar. NO reception. Only piece of paper with phone numbers to call. After calling one of the numbers, a person came, and after several phone calls and communication over the phone with someone accompanied me to another place across the road. No sign, no reception. The room condition I described in the Pro section. It can pass for one night emergency staying but no more.
- Audrey (4/5): Reception never attended - ran out of toilet paper on 1st day and had to use own tissues - Breakfast wasn't included Lots. I didn't like the fact that this new hotel wasn't advertised outside with the new name. Itw as very difficult for the taxi driver to know where to go to find it. Thils led to panic on my part as it was late inthe night.
- Anatoliy (9/5): Superb -
- Mehdi (10/5): Exceptional - It was nearby the downtown and very convenient for visiting the city’s landmark. The staff were friendly and the property was extremely safe. The cleaning crew were hardworking.
- Paulito (9/5): Bang for the Buck comfortable and clean - Feels like home very warm welcome, ask for additional things like extra towel and bathroom tissue wasngiven with a smile.... HAVE Bidet👍👍👍 The stairs..... Just no shower curtain
- Ivan (7/5): Good -
- Ghashami (8/5): Very good -
