Guest Houses in Haghpat

Mary and her family were the kindest and most welcoming hosts we could wish for. Right upon our arrival they offered us tea and refreshments and gave us various tips on what to see in the area.Their homemade dinners and breakfasts (served at a terrace with wonderful views) are huge and simply delicious, absolutely perfect after a whole day spent in the mountains around Haghpat. The room itself is very light and spacious, located in a house in the middle of a rural vegetable garden a few hundred meters from the monastery. In spite of our very poor knowledge of Russian, Mary's parents were always very friendly and open to talk with and fully accommodated all our wishes. We'll be very happy to come again if ever back in Armenia. Thank you! <3

Describing our incredible stay at Guesthouse Mary is a daunting task. In all honesty, I struggle to find the right words to capture the beauty and warmth we experienced during our time there. Looking back, I wish we could have extended our stay to fully immerse ourselves in the exceptional hospitality provided by Mary and her family. Right from the moment we arrived, we were embraced as if we were long-lost family members. A delectable array of homemade baked goodies greeted us, accompanied by a choice of invigorating Armenian coffee and tea. The village of Haghpat, nestled among the lush hills, plateaus, and gorges of the awe-inspiring Lori Province, provided the perfect backdrop. Here, natural and locally sourced ingredients were masterfully transformed into mouthwatering meals. From freshly churned butter and cheese procured from nearby farmers to homemade jams and baked goods meticulously crafted by Mary, her mother, and her talented nephew, Arthur, using fruits and vegetables from their own garden, every bite was a revelation. The Dolma, made with grapevines from Mary's garden, was a culinary delight, unlike anything we had ever tasted. What's more, Mary went out of her way to ensure that the meals catered to my vegetarian friend, showcasing her exceptional kindness. As for the accommodation, it can best be described as a nostalgic "Dacha," a charming summer cottage constructed by Mary's father in the 1960s. Each corner of the house is adorned with historical artifacts and handcrafted materials that transported us to a bygone era. The mid-century furnishings, skillfully crafted long before the age of mass production, offered a glimpse into a time when things were meticulously handmade. And how delightful it was to sit on the balcony, serenaded by the melodies of countless songbirds, or explore Arthur's captivating "mini-museum" in the basement, where family heirlooms painted a vivid picture of Armenia's rich history.

If you want authentic local contact, a very nice stay! Very sympathic host, who can make you diner using their own garden harvest. Very affordable price to. Small village, still we had a hard time finding the accommodation. Highly recommended.

Wonderful house, Wonderful location. Wonderful host

I recently stayed at a charming guesthouse that exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere was incredibly peaceful and comfortable, allowing for true relaxation. The breathtaking views were expansive and stunning, enhancing the overall experience. To top it off, there were three adorable dogs that added warmth and joy to our stay. This guesthouse was perfect for us, as it provided everything we needed for a memorable getaway. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene escape in a beautiful setting!

It was a pleasure to stay at this wonderful place. The location is truly great - a stunning view of the surrounding mountains, conveniently located near the historic Sanahin Monastery and Mikoyan brothers' museum. The guest house is newly built and impeccably clean. My room was cozy, comfortable with a homely atmosphere. The most enchanting and exceptional thing here - it's the hospitality of the hosts. This wonderful family is incredibly friendly, accommodating, and always ready to assist with anything you may need. I'm immensely grateful to the hosts for their warmth and hospitality. I hope to have a longer stay here on my way back from Georgia :)

Helpful host, lovely family, great location, good views, tasty food - many thanks!

The Pottery House is situated in a quiet, scenic spot high up in the mountains of Armenia. Marina and Ala are most hospitable.

Our stay at the aghasu tun b and b ended up being one of our favorite parts of Armenia. Amalia (sp?) was a lovely host who not only was a great chef but it was very nice to get to know her and share our love of music together. There is a communal area where we got to spend the evening with other guests who were also very lovely and showered us as well with Armenian hospitality. The rooms were comfortable and very clean. Would stay again and recommend to friends and family. Surrounding area is very beautiful (don't miss Lori fortress). Amalias garden is also really cool!

Everything was simply perfect. The place was clean, cozy, and beautifully designed. The room was very warm and comfortable. The hosts were extremely kind and welcoming. The breakfast was wonderful, the terrace was magical, and the dinner was delicious and impressive😊
