Cascade Hotel Yerevan

Cascade Hotel Yerevan is a three-star hotel at 10/10 Zarobyan Street in the Cascade area of Yerevan, Armenia, near the foot of the famous Cascade Complex, a giant white limestone stairway that links the city centre with Victory Park on the hill above. The location gives quick access to the Cafesjian Center for the Arts, which occupies the Cascade, as well as the sculpture garden, the fountains and the terraces with views toward Mount Ararat on clear days. Northern Avenue, the Opera and Republic Square are a short walk or taxi ride away, and Zvartnots International Airport is roughly 12 kilometres from the property. The hotel is a modest, practical city hotel aimed at independent travellers, couples and budget-aware visitors who want to be near the Cascade and the cultural quarter without the higher prices of larger hotels. It has earned a KAYAK guest score of 8.6 out of 10 from over 400 reviews, which is a good result for its price category. Rooms are listed as double rooms and twin rooms, equipped with air conditioning and wifi. Suites are not listed, so families may need to request adjoining rooms. Breakfast is typically the main meal taken at the hotel, and the neighbourhood around the Cascade and Tamanyan Street has cafes, restaurants and wine bars offering Armenian, Georgian and international food, many with terraces. No spa, pool or fitness centre is listed. The service character is friendly and informal, and staff are able to advise on taxis, the best times to climb the Cascade, and day trips to Garni, Geghard, Khor Virap and Lake Sevan. Listed nightly rates run from about AMD 14,000 to 33,000, or $40 to $90, making it one of the most economical options near the sights. The climb up the Cascade is best enjoyed in the cooler hours of the morning or evening, and the evening lights make the area particularly attractive. Early reservation is recommended for summer and autumn.
