Tufenkian Historic Yerevan Hotel
The Tufenkian Historic Yerevan Hotel is a luxury hotel in the heart of Yerevan, facing the famous Vernissage market. Despite its 19th-century inspired historic exterior, the hotel was purpose-built and opened in 2012. The property offers 83 handsome rooms and suites, each decorated with handcrafted textiles and modern furnishings. Other facilities include a bar and lounge, outdoor swimming pool, carpet showroom, and a signature restaurant which specializes in traditional Armenian cuisine.
Why We Love This Hotel
Location: Sitting in the heart of Yerevan, the hotel is located on the crossroads of Hanrapetutyan and Buzand streets, facing the famous Vernisage, Yerevan’s outdoor craft and souvenir market, and just steps away from other city landmarks.
Architecture: The exterior of the hotel was inspired by both classic European and 20th century Armenian design, a collaboration effort between renowned designers including the world famous architecture and interior designer Clodagh, James Tufenkian and top Armenian architects.
Culinary Heritage: Diners can get a taste of obscure traditional Armenian dishes at the Kharpert Restaurant, where forgotten recipes of past generations are recovered and reimagined.
