Sleep[edit]

  • Hotel Tsovin Kar, +374 97235072.
  • Hotel Eclectic. A hotel built by a Russian-based Armenian businessman, who was born in Vank, in the shape of the Titanic. Contrary to past reports, Hotel Eclectica offers both Wi-Fi and alcohol, although the Wi-Fi is often broken. There is a swimming pool at one of the hotel "decks". Nice rooms from 8,000 dram. 15,000 dram for a room with a king-sized bed and a twin bed..

Stay safe[edit]

There is a taxi driver who waits outside Hotel Eclectica offering rides to nearby sites. Do not enter his taxi, as he charges double the local rate for rides, and demands a ridiculous amount of money (250,000 dram) for a return trip.
