Owner Razmik is a diaspora Armenian with an Iranian upbringing and a German education, and he runs his guesthouse with great verve. Rooms are well maintained, featuring good beds and small bathrooms. The downstairs cottage with space for six is perfect for groups or families and the balconies offer great views. Dinner costs AMD5000 per person.
The guesthouse is on the road towards Jukhtakvank, 360m off the main Dilijan–Vanadzor Hwy. Head towards the railway bridge and look out for a red garage on the right-hand side of the road; the guesthouse is reached by a switchback road next to this. If you're travelling by public transport, the local bus starts and ends its journey from the highway turn-off.
