Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Areni

We had such a lovely stay at this place and I wish we stayed more than one night. The room looks like in the pictures and the bed is very comfortable. Everything was extra clean, the bathroom was really sparkling. The view from the window is just stunninf. The highlight was the breakfast - amazing eggs, home made jam and a selection of other tasty dishes - and if I come again, I will make sure to try the lunch or dinner. The host was very nice and we had a warm welcome from her. I hope we get to stay here again one day.

The wine tasting was amazing! Passion, energy and good wine, a new project of value

Amaaaaaaazing views and a very homey place. It's totally worth staying here a little longer and exploring the surroundings.

A very nice appartement in a beautiful village with the nicest hosts possible! 10/10, highly recommended

The owners, Len and Armina are an Australian-Armenian couple. They are extremely helpful and knowledgeable about Armenia in general and the local highlights in particular. Communication is super easy in perfect English, which is a rarity in Armenia. The hotel is a home from home, in a garden next to a river with magnificent views of the magnificent mountains. I stayed at the Areni Lodge for three nights and highly recommend it.

A Truly Unforgettable Stay with a Beautiful Armenian Family Our 4-day stay at Ararat B&B at Chiva in the Areni Municipality of the Vayots Dzor Province in Armenia was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, Mrs. Knarik and Mr. Kajik welcomed us with open arms, making us feel not like guests, but like cherished members of their family. Their warmth, love, and genuine care turned our visit into a deeply personal and memorable experience. The home was peaceful and cozy, surrounded by a lush organic farm that provided the freshest ingredients for every delicious meal. Knarik treated us to a delightful array of traditional Armenian dishes—Dolma, Lavash, Lule Kebab, Khorovats, Pakhlava, Ttu Lavash, Rice Pilaf, Khinkali, and so much more—all lovingly prepared and bursting with flavor. One of the highlights was celebrating Kajik’s birthday with the family, filled with laughter, fun, and heartfelt moments. The generous servings of food and local drinks were made even more special by the love and care behind every offering. When we left their home, Knarik sent her love with us in the form of locally made jam, fresh fruits, chocolates, and more. A heartfelt thank you to the entire Saghatelyan family—especially Knarik, Kajik, and Qristina—for creating such a warm and welcoming space. Extending our love to Ararat & Family, Vigen & Family and Hovik & Family. Special thanks also to my friend Shushan for recommending this gem. If we had to sum up this home in just a few words: Love + Care + Food = Ararat B&B.

It’s worth staying here just for the dinner. Friendly staff and comfortable beds. Very nice place to stay for Armenian wine and for hiking. Would stay again.
