- YUN-CHI (10/5): Excellent experience in my life. - Everything is perfect for my personal snow activities vocation. And thanks for all the staffs warmly assistance and service. I would like to recommand this great value hotel to all the friends who are interesting to have a winter vocation in Tsaghkadzor. Not applicable question.

- Inga (10/5): -
- Roman (10/5): - Очень хороший отель! Расположен прямо около трассы, фактически в отеле одеваешь лыжи и по тропинке, 50-70метров, скатываешься на трассу!!! Также с трассы. Готовят в ресторане очень качественно и вкусно, цены невысокие. Персонал прекрасный. Номера просторные, хорошие, но без излишеств, хрустальные люстры там не нужны)))) Отель рекомендую !!!!!!!! Обратите внимание- ночью ресепшен не работает!!!! Т. Е. Если вы приезжаете ночью или рано утром, заранее обязательно свяжитесь с отелем, чтобы вам оставили ключ от номера у охраны.
- Grigor (10/5): -
- Vitalii (8/5): - Находится рядом со склоном, буквально метров 100-200. Персонал очень радушный. Завтрак разнообразный. Вай фай уверенно работал на всей территории. Конечно, 4* было раньше, сейчас я бы дал не более 3х. Номер, где я жил, был достаточно прилично потрепан, неплохо освежить. На территории есть прокат лыжного оборудования, но не оказалось шлема нужного размера и не было вообще масок, пришлось брать в другом месте. Завтрак крайне желательно сделать раньше, часов с 8, а не с 9.30, так как курорт начинает работать раньше. Кровать, в целом, была удобная, но одеяла какие-то странные, избыточно тёплые, спал в результате с открытым окном при -15, тогда стало комфортно).
- Thomas (10/5): - Очень хороший отель и самое главное самый добрый персонал который можно встретить на территории всей Армении, прям сразу понимаешь что хотят помочь от всего сердца, особо хочу отметить горничную, которая прям ходячая доброта
- Devika (9/5): -
- Marina (10/5): - Второй раз отдыхали в отели. Все как и в прошлый раз прекрасно. Для тех кто приезжает кататься на горнолыжном курорте, отличный вариант
- Tigran (10/5): -

- Hasmik (8/5): -
- Irina (7/5): - Мы проживали в этом отеле одну ночь. Этот отель самый удобный для тех кто катается на лыжах. Мы приехали намного заранее времени заезда, но нас сразу заселил. Большое спасибо. Подробнее о номере: номер очень старый, мебель тоже. Есть чайный уголок, чайник и чашки. Столик рядом с телевизором, но электророзетка только одна. Телевизор не двигается. Т.е. чтобы включить чайник надо искать другую розетку. Я нашла только рядом с диваном. Т.о. чайник стоял на диване. Душевая уже грязная и старая. Постельное белье чистое, полотенца тоже. Если для кого удобства в номере не имеют значения, то эта гостиница удобна. Можно на лыжах спуститься к подъемнику и обратно с горы подъехать на лыжах. Все остальные гостиницы, даже если написано , что 100 метров, все не удобно т.к. все круто в гору. Я не пишу про абсолютно новую гостиницу, другой сети гостиниц, которая построена рядом. Она еще не открыта. На ресепшен персонал очень дружелюбный 5 из 5. В ресторане завтрак не богат, но голодными не останетесь. Ужин и обед , за свой счет, вкусно и порции очень большие. СПА : сауна открывается в 17. Сауна холодная, бассейн работает с утра. Вода в бассейне холодная. Гулять негде, т.к. нет пешеходных дорожек. Все или круто в горку иди под горку. Был лед . Муж сильно упал и ударил спину. территория маленькая, но симпатичная. Эта гостиница построила новый корпус Запуск в следующем сезоне.
Вывод: ничего плохого сказать про эту гостиницу не могу. Просто мы привыкли к другому уровню сервиса. Мы сменили гостиницу и переехали в новую, которая только что построена. Еще раз, для тех кто катается, это очень хороший вариант.
- Varazdat (9/5): -
- Chintan (10/5): - Superb hospitality and location
- Ольга (10/5): Наилучшее месторасположение к подъемникам - Прекрасный горнолыжный отель с идеальным расположением — подъёмники буквально в шаговой доступности. Отличный спа-комплекс, где можно по-настоящему расслабиться после дня в горах. Персонал очень любезный и внимательный. В номере было очень тепло и уютно. Порадовала вкусная еда, солнечная погода и восхитительная природа вокруг — место, куда хочется вернуться.
- TRIANTAFYLLOS (10/5): Pure perfection - Everything. The location, the food and especially the stuff Nothing
- Robert (10/5): -
- Gaelle (10/5): - the location is amazing, you get an amazing nature view.
the host (lisa) made sure everything was on point and clear with us. she was super friendly and great!
- Виолетта (8/5): - Вкусные завтраки, отзывчивый персонал, чисто, уютно. В спа было прохладно, сауна была не горячей.
- M.Estropia (9/5): Great stay. - We stayed in a two-bedroom cottage with a fully equipped kitchen, while the other accommodation was a one-bedroom cottage without a kitchen. We truly enjoyed our stay at Alva. Everyone was very accommodating—two thumbs up to the staff for always making sure we had everything we needed. I would definitely stay at Alva again. We even got to enjoy the pool during winter and had fun playing billiards as well. There is also a convenient shortcut near the reception that takes you directly to the ski lift and nearby restaurants. Sharing with you the photos of the 2 bedroom cottage and their daily breakfast buffet spread. Nothing

There is also a convenient shortcut near the reception that takes you directly to the ski lift and nearby restaurants. The photos shown is the one-bedroom cottage. Nothing i can think of.
- Santosh (8/5): A nice place on the mountain - The place is probably the last hotel up on the street. The rooms are wooden cottages, just enough for sleep and chill after your excursion day.
Nonnee and Vardan at reception were very helpful. In getting a tour driver suggesting things to do nearby. All was handled perfectly.
The breakfast buffet was good and the host there, takes good care of you. She made our breakfast visits both days , comfortable. The chef is also very friendly and made some changes my son needed with this meal.
You can walk to the ski lift in 10 minutes The sofa/bed in the other room, where our son slept was a sofa with wheels. SO basically you had to convert the sofa into a square bed.
Because of the wheels, after you sleep, the sofa use to move, because of the wheels and create a hole in the bed.
My son didnt mind to sleep on it, so there was nothing to complain. But if you have a extra adult then this bed may not be the best option.
- Valentina Kasymova (6/5): - Только персонал . Не соответствие цены к качество
- zaw zaw (8/5): Best location and close to ropeway - Location is the best as close to rope way and love the most Nothing really
- Paul Simon (9/5): -
- Ahmed (9/5): Worth to stay 🌟Family's Vacation ✨️ - It was an outstanding service from Liza , very supportive,✨️😍
The location in very close to the Telefrik activity
The cottage is an amazing experience 😍
The Housekeeper was so friendly and supportive The Cottage was really cold especially the floor, No microwave, High Level of Maintenance is needed plus detailed cleaning to the cottage.
The Breakfast was really poor especially no variety or options plus if Arabic Guest should be an option value, also The TV channels all I'm local language no English or YouTube
- faozia (7/5): - The staff were incredibly friendly and genuinely lovely, which made the stay feel very welcoming. Breakfast was enjoyable with a good variety, and the room itself was spacious and comfortable.
Unfortunately, the rooms are more on the simple side and not particularly fancy, but overall the experience was pleasant. The area is quiet at night, with not many activities or places open, so it can feel a bit calm and uneventful after dark.
- Ani (8/5): -
- Marine (7/5): - The area was beautiful, inside the forest — very convenient. The rooms were clean and neat, and the breakfast was delicious. The staff was very sweet and hospitable, and we even received a late checkout until 2 p.m., which was highly appreciated. However, there was a major disappointment regarding the pool. I called in advance and specifically asked the administrator if the pool was functional, as this was an important factor in choosing the hotel. She confirmed that it was. When we arrived, the pool was dirty, so we use sauna which was electrical, no humidity. The next morning, we found the jacuzzi full of hair and even a lizard inside
the pool. Other guests and I informed the administration, but unfortunately, the response from the administrator (Lisa) was dismissive — she simply said that “people leave their hair.” This was quite disappointing and should be taken more seriously.
Overall, it’s a nice place with great potential, but the pool maintenance and management response need significant improvement.

- Hmayak (8/5): - Отличное расположение, удобно зимой горнолыжный курорт рядом. Обещанные фрукты так и не достались
- Jead (3/5): السعر مقابل السكن مبااااااالغ جدا - الموقع فقط لايوجد تكيف الكوخ حار جدا ولا تستطيع فتح الشبابيك حيث لا يوجد شبك مانع الحشرات الصور غير الواقع بكثير
السرير غير مريح انتظرت حتي الصباح لتغير السكن الأفطار متواضع جدا
- Avetyan (9/5): -
- Syuzan (10/5): Enjoyed my stay in Alva. - The best hotel for me in terms of location surrounded with forest. I prefer going there although it needs investment to improve the accomodations and the swimming pool.
The staff is very friendly and supportive. I adore the silence and peace I feel in Alva. Needs investment to improve the accomodations. Although a hotel building is being constructed.
- Bashar (10/5): - location and staff
- Stepan (9/5): Superb -
- Anush (10/5): Exceptional -
- Zainul (9/5): A very relaxed stay with the perfect location in Tsaghkadzor - The location of this hotel perfect very close walking distance to Ropeway, the entire hotel is surrounded lush green trees which soo relaxing and even in summer the temp goes down to 6 degrees. they very good breakfast and indoor swimming pool n even billiards. Had a very relaxing stay. Automatic room heater
- Shahane (9/5): Superb -
- Alfred (9/5): Superb -
- Anush (10/5): Exceptional -
- Palabekhian (8/5): Very good - This is our second visit and all went ok , the location is brilliant, the staff are kind , we didn't use any of the facilities in both visits as those seemed to be closed , but that was not an issue for us. I suggest improving the facilities like the gym and the swimming pool to attract visitors and since the facilities are already there then why not be in a good status.
- Kajayr (7/5): Good - The environment and nature was great
- Guggila (9/5): Superb - Location No proper Air conditioning

- Tomas (8/5): Very good - Great pool, kids loved it, temperature hot even during winter, all floor heating great.
Radiators are very hot, so all your wet clothing from skiing dry in few hours - very good.
Great restaurant in the property.
Very close to ski resort, they have small path to the resort, if enough snow, you can even ski down there through this route. The bed was very squeaky/noisy, but not bit, big time.
- Stelios (7/5): Good value for money - Location Facilites need upgrading, Breakfast is at 09:30 should be start earlier
- Anastasia (9/5): Superb - Ideally located near the slopes; friendly personnel, very good sauna If you arrive late, after 9 pm no way to get food, restaurant is closed
- Liudmila (5/5): Ok but we expected more - It’s really good location, right next to the ski lift. Well, our room wasn’t very clean, and almost everything in it was falling apart.
The ski rental equipment was quite expensive for its quality, and the reception staff wasn’t very helpful, especially on our last day.
The restaurants were okay, and the only staff who were friendly worked there.
- Patrick (10/5): Exceptional - Direct access to slopes Ski Rental quality
- Ivanov (8/5): Very good -
- Irina (8/5): Very good -
- Alex (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aleksey (8/5): Very good - Very good breakfast, location is close to the lift The pool temperature is too cold for relaxing, jacuzzi should be much warmer, breakfast at 9:30 too late if you want to start skiing early
- Jay (9/5): Superb -
- Amaury (7/5): Very nice stay - Location is outstanding, close to slopes and in a calm natural environment. Personnel is very welcoming and friendly. The restaurant serves good food for an honest price. There was a noisy ventilator/machine which one would hear at night when sleeping. The swimming pool was nice but the water was on the fresh side. The sauna was not always on.
- Johann (6/5): Pleasant -
- Mazen (10/5): Highly recommend this hidden gem! - We had an amazing stay at Alva Hotel and Spa. The cottage-style accommodation was perfect for our family of six, offering two connected rooms with all the essentials to make it cozy and comfortable. The heating worked perfectly, hot water was always available, and the breathtaking forest views made it truly special. Its location, just 300 meters from the rope line, was an added bonus.
Despite the rustic charm of the cottage, it was well-equipped and far exceeded our expectations. The food was delicious, and the service was exceptional—everything we needed was thoughtfully provided. It felt even better than staying in a five-star hotel. Highly recommend this hidden gem! Nothing
