Accommodation

Hotels previously run by Intourist are now mostly being privatised. In Yerevan the new Armenia Hotel is an Armenian/Marriott joint venture, functioning exclusively in foreign currency and supplied with power from its own generators. The Hotel Hrazdan, mainly occupied by foreign missions, also has its own generator, but is state owned and functions primarily as a guest-house for official visitors. Private individuals may occasionally be allowed to stay there by special arrangement. The Hotel Dvin, opposite the Hrazdan, is less comfortable but has privileged supplies of electricity and running water. It has a satellite telephone service for guests. Information on other hotels can be obtained from Armintour.
There are tourist information bureaux in the Armenia Hotel (Republic Square) and the newly refurbished Ani Plaza Hotel (19 Sayat Nova Avenue). Tours and other activities can be organised through these bureaux.
