Hotel Dilijan Resort

“A very nice option, not far from the city center”

I stayed 1 night at this hotel with my wife during my trip to Georgia and Armenia in June. The hotel is big and comfortable.

I stayed 1 night at this hotel with my wife during my trip to Georgia and Armenia in June. The hotel is big and comfortable. The room was huge, with a nice sofa, a small table and one of the biggest beds I’ve ever slept in! It stands on a quiet corner of Dilijan, embedded in a small forest of big pine(?) trees. The hotel has a small inner pool and sauna, together with a and gymnasium and massage center, being perfect for families with kids. The minus was just that, like other hotels we’ve stayed at during this trip, it seems that the hotel was built with paper walls: one can hear all the noises around like we were outside the room. Other annoying “feature” of almost all the hotels we stayed at in this trip, is that it seems that both Armenia and Georgia have no concept of window shades, which means that one wakes up at 5:30 a.m. with the daylight. Apart from that, it was a really nice stay at a good hotel.

“Disappointing Experience”

We stayed at Dilijan Resort Hotel for one night in a deluxe double room with balcony. The hotel is set in a lovely, forested location on the outskirts of town. The room was a good size, but unfortunately the curtains were very thin and ineffective in blocking outside light. This was not conducive to a good nights sleep. Further, no bottled water nor tea and coffee were provided in the room, although there was a kettle and cups. In addition, staff in the dining room appeared like they did not want to be there, and tried to persuade us to eat from a buffet being provided for a tour group dinner. As we were not a member of that tour group we declined and insisted on selecting our own meal, which resulted in menus being thrown on the table in front of us. Staff attitude in the dining room needs a lot of improvement!

“Big but outdated room”

Our birdwatching group stayed here for 2 nights. The entrance hall is very grand but the bedroom I was in was very outdated, and the curtains were not big enough to close across the vast window. If you are a vegetarian the buffet selection is pretty rubbish even though it might look like there is… more

Our birdwatching group stayed here for 2 nights. The entrance hall is very grand but the bedroom I was in was very outdated, and the curtains were not big enough to close across the vast window. If you are a vegetarian the buffet selection is pretty rubbish even though it might look like there is a lot - salad leaves, cheese and bread and cake and fruit were all I found

“Enormous”

Located in its own park this hotel sports a grand lobby, enormous rooms and a range of services. The room was a bit run down though, and the food in the restaurant mediocre. A very noisy party dominated the evening. Personally I prefer a smaller hotel with more character.
