Cabanes à Dilidjan

"Excellent -- attentive, helpful and friendly -- staff!! My room was very clean and was kept clean during my 6 nights in the hotel. The restaurant was also excellent. There are three pools in this hotel, which is also impressive. I am more negative about three matters which are probably less relevant for most people. First, the gym is a dangerous disaster zone and should be avoided. Neither of the running treadmills worked during my rather lengthy stay. None of the equipment worked and the two weight machines were in a dangerous state. It really shouldn't be expensive to bring in better (at least functional equipment) equipment. Second, the largest of the two outdoor pools seemed rather dirty and the water had a strange smell. There was a worryinglt dirty ring around the top edge of the side of the pool. As for the strange smell, given that the water of Dilijan is of an excellent quality and plentiful, I found this particularly odd. The strange smell might come from the chlorine used. However, having swum in hotel pools around the room (including at least 20 African countries!), I have never previously encountered such a strange smelling pool!! Still, the area around the pool was kept very clean and there were staff available to provide towels, etc.. I did not try the other two pools which looked perfectly clean from a distance. Third, the hotel room air conditioning was loud and dysfunctional. Given, the cool mountain nights, air conditioning should be needed for most people"
