Gohar’s Guest House

Armenia


This friendly B&B is owned by Gohar Gevorgyan, who keeps a clean and tidy house and uses organic home-grown produce to cook delicious meals (dinner AMD5000). Rooms are spread into two buildings. There's a communal kitchen, washing machine, vine-covered terrace and small swimming pool. Gohar speaks Armenian and Russian and her daughter and granddaughter speak English and French.

To get here, walk up Spandaryan St towards the football field. When you reach the T-junction, turn left and then a quick right (so that you are walking next to the field). The guesthouse is on the right-hand side of the road.
