Best Western Bohemian Resort

A shocking disappointment given this is a Best Western. Place was dirty, had 2 floors with bedrooms up and bathroom down. Carpet dirty, smelly and torn. Poor lighting throughout. One bedroom had virtually no light. Took a lamp from another room to give some light. Depressing room, dark and dank and smelly. Wall in bathroom leaked. Water not potable but they only provide minimal amount. Gave a kettle but no cups. Only saving grace is it has a beautiful restaurant on the sea with a stunning view, good food, lots of it at a reasonable price. Included breakfast was huge and varied.

We stayed here for one night on our tour of the caucuses. Maybe it was that I was expecting a "resort" that it didn't impress greatly. There was nothing wrong - my wife tried the pool but jumped back out straight away as it was cold. There was work going on restoring the lakeside. I think I was expecting to be able to walk along the lake but access was restricted to the width of the hotel complex itself. It does have great views over the lake. I felt the room decoration was bland - maybe after visiting more elaborate places. For us oldies too - the idea of having to find your way downstairs in the night to visit the toilet was a challenge. We had breakfast here which was fine. As I said, nothing wrong - just observations.

My wife and I stayed here for just one night in late May, ‘22, during our small group tour of the Caucasus. The Bohemia is a large resort complex right on the edge of Lake Sevan, with a mix of one and 2 bedroom units, some of which are 2-story suites, as was ours (room 317). The complex is clearly designed for extended lakeside vacations, with an outdoor pool in the center, and two restaurants, one of which had a very nice view of the lake, and all rooms had nice balconies facing the central courtyard. Since we were there in the off-season, the pool was being refurbished and the lakeside restaurant was closed. Our room had a living area downstairs with a sofa that might have doubled as a bed, and a wall-mounted tv. There was also a bathroom with a shower, and a cupboard the housed a small refrigerator. The floor downstairs was heated, a welcome feature since it was cold during our visit. Upstairs were two bedrooms, one with two twin beds and one with a queen bed. Both rooms were sparsely furnished – for example, there were night stands but no lamps on them. Overall the Bohemia was a mixed bag. The main orientation of the hotel was to cater to families on holiday, and it would definitely be a good choice for that purpose.
