If there is one hotel in Vanadzor that truly stands out, it is undoubtedly this building from the Soviet aera. Perched on the hill overlooking Vanadzor from across the river, the hotel was built in 1980 during the Soviet days.
Up until recently, the hotel had a Soviet vibe and design, offering guests a blast into the city’s past. However, in recent years, the hotel has undergone extensive renovations leaving the Soviet exterior combined with the comforts of a modern hotel.
