Best Luxury Hotels In Yerevan

If you want to add a new destination to your travel list, take a look at the ancient city of Yerevan. The capital of the Republic of Armenia was re-designed (during Soviet rule) to resemble Paris, Vienna and Saint Petersburg and dubbed the Pink City, due to its proliferation of rosy-hued stonework. A compact Beaux-Arts style city centre is easily traversable on foot and has much to offer the tourist of today: restaurants, bars, fascinating religious sites and Soviet history. Luxury hotels are a relatively new addition to the city, bringing the adventurous traveller the opportunity to explore this pocket of Armenia in style.

The Alexander, A Luxury Collection Hotel

luxury travel yerevan

Local culture is woven into the design of this otherwise internationally influenced establishment. It’s home to the renowned Alexander Spa and Beauty Salon by Anne Semon – where a shimmering aquamarine swimming pool is flanked by square marble pillars – and The Keys Aficionado’s Private Club. Guests can dine indoors or out, looking over the mountains and city at the impressive rooftop Atelier 1797 Penthouse Bar and Grill. Gabriel’s bar is a cocktail night stop, doubling as a coffee stop by day, while Gabriel’s Patisserie serves up mouthwatering sweet treats. The Alexander houses 114 guest rooms, the most prestigious being its Presidential Suite.

Grand Hotel Yerevan

A four-storey terracotta-coloured frontage with stone balconies and double-storey white columns ensure the Grand Hotel lives up to its name. The building itself dates back to 1928 and is centrally located close to the National Gallery. Inside is a more understated grandeur that sits somewhere between modern and classic decor. The staff are attentive; you can make use of the services of a driver, personal shopper and concierge to arrange bespoke tours. In the spa, therapists are on hand to ready the hammam, bring you tea and administer treatments. There’s also a restaurant overlooking the square and a rooftop pool.

Cultural and Historical Places to Visit in Yerevan

Yerevan cascade complex.

Yerevan has several must-see places, but the Cascade Complex is perhaps the most superb and memorable one.

It is an architectural masterpiece that occupies a large part of Yerevan’s center and a great opportunity for travelers who are looking for free things to do in Yerevan.

The complex was designed by the legendary Armenian architect Alexander Tamanyan , who was the main architect of Yerevan city.

Although he designed it, the Yerevan Cascade Complex was built after Tamanyan’s death in the 1970s and over time became one of the main places to visit in Yerevan.

Erected from limestone, this mesmerizing monument is a one-of-a-kind structure that is basically an enormous staircase.

It connects northern Yerevan to the center in a very unique way. The Yerevan Cascades has several levels and each level has a different look and design to it.

Another great thing about the Cascades is that you can find some of the best Yerevan coffee shops close by!

50 Fabulous and Impressive Things to Do in Yerevan

The Cascade Complex allows its guests to see Yerevan from one of the highest points from its 572 stairs, where the pink city shines under the Ararat mountains.

In 2002, the businessman and philanthropist Gerard Leon Cafesjian started to renovate the historical monument and establish the Cafesjian Center for the Arts .

The Center presents modern and contemporary art on each level of the structure on both the inside and outside of the Cascade.

Also, many concert and cultural events take place in the complex’s main yard.

On the left side of the complex, there is an entrance where visitors can take an escalator to ride to the top and enjoy the different levels of artwork on the way up.

The Cascade Complex’s main garden is surrounded by many beautiful cafes and restaurants, where both guests and locals enjoy the time under the trees and lights.

Address: 10 Tamanyan St, Yerevan 0009

Working hours: Friday-Sunday  8:00 – 20:00. Closed Mondays-Thursdays.

Ticket fee: free

Insider Tip:  Yerevan has copious amounts of renowned architecture and the Cascades is merely one structure that is marvelous. If you’re interested in Soviet architecture in Armenia and beyond, check out this coffee table book by Frédéric Chaubin that showcases a variety from around the world (Megan owns this!)

Ararat Brandy (Cognac) Factory

Another top thing to do in Yerevan is to visit the legendary Ararat Brandy Factory which is a perfect place to try one of the world’s best Armenian brandy/cognac.

The beloved Armenian cognac of Winston Churchill and Joseph Stalin was established at the end of the 19th century and since then has become one of the must-see places of Armenian alcohol making.

To learn about, have a tasting, and take a historical tour in the Ararat Brandy Factory , it is necessary to register on their website or make an appointment by calling them.

The tour involves a walk through the factory, a brandy tasting, a guide on how to drink it, and interesting and historical information about their brand.

After the tour, you can also buy Armenian brandy right on the spot. The Ararat Brandy Factory is located right next to the Victory bridge at the entrance of the city.

Address: 2 Admiral Isakov Ave, Yerevan 0082

Working hours: Monday – Saturday  9:00 – 18:00. Closed on Sundays.

Insider Tip:   There are many awesome ways to experience Armenian cognac but we suggest enjoying it with a traditional Armenian crayfish party!  This Armenian cognac and crayfish experience will allow you to do just that! 

Yerevan Noy Wine Brandy Vodka Factory

Erected in the Erivan Fortress area, Yerevan Noy Wine Brandy Vodka Factory is a truly historical monument, built on the edge of Hrazdan Gorge.

The capacity of the 125-year old fortress factory is very large due to the fact that it goes many floors underground.

Each underground floor contains different old barrels filled with wine and brandy and historical alcohol-producing equipment. This amazing facility with a rich history is open 6 days a week to welcome groups of tourists and show them the secret corners of the old factory.

The guests will see, touch, and taste the alcohol at the end of the tour in a special celebration room.

Address: 9 Argishti St, Yerevan 0015

Working hours: Monday-Saturday  19:00 – 18:00. Closed Sundays.

Yerevan Opera Theatre

One of the most beautiful and astonishing monuments in Yerevan is the Opera Theatre .

This architectural gem is located at the center of Yerevan. The creator of Yerevan, architect Alexander Tamanian, came up with the unusual design for this modern architectural masterpiece.

The building process took place in the ’30s and ’60s and in 1980 was finalized with reconstruction.

There are two halls in the Opera house: the theatre and the philharmonic society hall.

Tsitsernakaberd (Genocide Memorial)

Built-in 1967, the Memorial Complex of Tsitsernakaberd is a monument dedicated in memory of the Armenian Genocide.

In 1915, the Turkish government began a massacre of 1.5 million Armenian living in Western Armenia, nowadays known as Turkey.

The complex has an original architectural design and is considered an important site and an architectural masterpiece of Yerevan.

It is located on a beautiful hill on the other side of Hrazdan Gorge from Yerevan center, surrounded by many trees.

Insider Tip:   If you’re keen to know more about the history of the Armenian Genocide and its impact around the world, this tour will take you there , along with other places locally, with an experienced guide. 

Mother Armenia

The statue of Mother Armenia is the biggest and one of the most recognizable statues in Yerevan and symbolizes the country as a body and soul of a strong Armenian woman.

Located on the top of a hill in Victory Park , the monument came to replace the statue of Joseph Stalin in 1967.

Stalin’s statue was erected in 1950 after his death and was removed in 1962.

Designed by sculptor Ara Harutyunyan , Mother Armenia symbolizes peace through strength. She holds a covered sword in her hands and a shield next to her legs as the protector of peace and harmony.

The statue is situated on a beautiful pedestal designed by architect R. Israyelyan which displays traditional Armenian symbols and architecture elements.

The height of Mother Armenia and the pedestal is approximately 51 meters, which makes it very visible from different parts of Yerevan.

From afar, the Mother Armenia statue looks like the protective guardian of Yerevan.

Address: Azatutyan Avenue, area 2

The Erebuni Museum

The Erebuni Historical & Archeological Culture-Preserve takes you back in time to the origins of this ancient city.

Founded in 1968, the Erebuni Museum is not the nearest place to see in Yerevan center but its an absolute archeological gem that showcases three amazing historical sites: Arin Berd, Karmir Blur, and Shengavit .

King Argishti , who founded Erebuni (also named Arin Berd) in 785–753 B.C., established the fortified city on top of a hill during the time of the Kingdom of Urartu , an ancient and powerful kingdom.

The 18th-century Shia Mosque was closed down during the Soviet era and reopened in the ’90s with funding from the Iranian government.

The gorgeous garden surrounded by amazing, colorful architecture is a well-loved place to visit for locals and tourists alike.

Address: 12 Mesrop Mashtots Ave, Yerevan 0015

Working hours: Daily 10 am-1 pm,  Daily 3 pm-6 pm

Matenadaran

Another fascinating place to visit in Yerevan is a unique museum called the Institute of Ancient Manuscripts, mostly known as Matenadaran .

This church of ancient manuscripts is considered one of the rarest museums in the world and is the pride of Armenia.

Unusual Things to do in Yerevan / Hidden Gems

Kond district.

The Kond district is one of the three original neighborhoods from the 17th century. It translates to “long hill,” which is most likely because of its location.

During the Persian rule, it became the home of Armenians and has remained that way.

You can see different types and styles of structures in Kond since it has survived through many eras.

You can still see the remains of the Thapha Bashi Mosque, where many Armenians hid during the 1915 genocide.

St. Hovhannes Church is still in its original spot, thanks to extensive renovations. Unfortunately, Kond is the main target of urban redevelopment.

The neighborhood has an improvised nature and seems somewhat messy in terms of urban planning, but that gives it its own charm. Many of the residents don’t even have addresses for their homes.

Currently, there is construction around the historical structures, but we still don’t know what the future holds for Kond.

Graffiti artists have given Kond a new purpose as it is now a Yerevan attraction where you can walk through the neighborhood and take pictures of some amazing wall murals .

Things to see in Yerevan: Kond

Open Air Cinema Yerevan

The open-air cinema is a perfect activity when summertime hits and the weather calls for nights outside.

Presently, the amphitheater plays screenings during the Yerevan Golden Apricot International Film Festival and continues to show movies during the summer. It is right downtown with plenty of bars and restaurants nearby that you can visit before or after watching a movie.

Hospitality and Style Set Among Rugged Natural Beauty

luxury travel yerevan

For as unassuming and laid-back as the country is, you might be tempted to underestimate Armenia’s importance to Biblical and modern history. However, gazing up at Mt. Ararat from the terraces of Yerevan, Armenia’s capital, or exploring the country’s turbulent and at times tragic history in one of its museums, visitors will quickly catch the scent of something greater than meets the eye. Armenia is a hidden treasure, full of hidden treasure. Whether you are fascinated by Biblical history, ancient empires, or you simply love beautiful places to be outside, luxury travel to Armenia is the treasure trove you didn’t know you had been seeking.

Armenia lies at the intersection of Europe, Russia and the road to East Asia, and bears the cultural and culinary markers of all three. Luxury travel in Armenia offers a blend hospitality and style from the surrounding regions, set among rugged natural beauty. Expect spices of the East, comforts of the West, and the heartiness of the Caucasus peoples while you hike, bike, and gaze out across stunning landscapes.

Armenia is located in the highlands surrounding the peaks of Mt. Ararat in the South Caucasus. While the mountains actually lie within the boarders of neighboring Turkey, they are most easily accessible from Armenia. Legend marks this as the landing place for Noah’s Ark in the Biblical story of the Great Flood. Archeologists and scholars have made pilgrimage here for years, searching for clues to explain the tale.

Private sightseeing in Armenia with Ker & Downey will show you every Armenian treasure. The mountains and valleys create varied climates and dramatic scenery amid the serenity of Lake Sevan. With strong ties to the Christian religion, ancient churches and monasteries dot the landscape in Northern and Southern Armenia, while many of the country’s museums are found in Central Armenia, a flat and dry region in the Ararat valley.

Like many countries in this region, Armenia is renowned for its incredibly hospitable citizens and cultural significance – journey with Ker & Downey to experience both.
