A couple of kilometres out of town on the road to Vilnius, this unremarkable three-star hotel is perfectly fine, but considering you can get the same for less in the town centre one does have to wonder what they’re playing at. On the plus side, its Armenian credentials ensure that the kitchen churns out better tasting food than most of its contemporaries. Worth a trip for the dolma and grilled meat dishes if nothing else.
