Sevan Writers House

"To echo comments of others, the chance to stay a night in the historic Sevan Writers' House was wonderful. The views of the lake were super from both the room and restaurant. The gentlemen managing the restaurant and accommodation were polite."

"The room was simple and the bathroom basic but these were as expected. Had the accommodation been thoroughly renovated for the 21st century it would have lost all its charm."

"Wow, what a cool place! If you are into your soviet/brutalism architecture then its well worth the stay. The views from the rooms are amazing and having breakfast overlooking the lake was fantastic. Owners are great too."

"if you are looking for something super modern then this isnt for you."

"Location, architecture, restaurant, and historical relevance - all excellent. Just to say that most reviews are pretty much spot on, all the way from the 1-star to the 5-star ones. Which camp you end up in will depend on how you approach the experience, your personal expectations, and your primary reason for visiting."

"Neglected and dilapidated. In desperate need of sensitive and careful restoration."

"The charm of this place is the architecture and the history. An insight into the Soviet world, and the thought of the Soviet writers who once stayed here"

"It’s run down. The modernist concrete is crumbling and it’s cold and the shower is a trickle, but that’s not the point."

"Feels like stepping back in time ! If you’re into the history of that era this is a must stay place. It’s not luxury but that’s not the point. All the staff were incredibly friendly, one even giving me a lift to a local restaurant after his shift. The breakfast was delicious and the location is perfect. A real gem !!"

"Aucun."

"Great views of Lake Sevan, fascinating architecture, close walk to the Sevan Monastery which also has nice nighttime views of stars and a 360 view of the area. Also, you can get to a swimming area in about 5 minutes walking, and there's a ping pong table!"

"The place met or exceeded my expectations. You can hear music from restaurants on the beach quite late at night--but it wasn't so loud from a distance that it bothered me."

"Amazing staff super nice ! Food is good and the architecture is incredible. So much history in one place 🥹"

"A bit old and uncomfortable but you’re not staying there for confort"

"You dont go to this hotel for the service or the amenities...you go for the ambience, history, view and convenience to the Monastery. This is a gem of a hotel, but its not luxury and it is probably not for everyone but I loved it."

"The water pressure is so low its difficult to have a shower. There was a lot of loud music from a nearby party... but hey it is the summer!"

"If you like to enjoy an authentic experience, that's the right place. I loved the building and the view of the lake from the balcony of my room. Don't miss the resturant in the rotunda."

"Aucun."

"Very good views and the place was super clean. Near to restaurants and tourist areas. If you want breakfast you need to pay an extra 2,000 dram but it is worth it."

"The location is quite hard to find but.once.you know where it is you cannot get lost, just go to the end of the peninsula."
