Lilith is an absolutely wonderful host and the hostel attracts a cool crowd. The kitchen is well equipped and the there's many places to chill. It's a bit far from the center, but it's easy (and cheap) to get there by bus or yandex.

Warm welcome from Lilly and the excellent atmosphere amongst guests. The Accomodation and facilities are exactly as described and in the photos. The toilet facilities are basic, but very clean. It’s 5-10 minutes walking to the centre.

The bathroom needs an update

The owner lily is very nice as well as her family. The common area is cool and with nice views.

The bathroom is not the best and the water is not really hot but for the price is OK

Great little guesthouse located a bit outside of the downtown area but with only 100 Dram, you can get there by bus, which stops 100m from the guesthouse (if you stay on the bus, it'll take you almost all the way to the trailhead for the 2 abandoned monasteries so pretty good deal). Nice owners who speak English, small but functional kitchen, good wifi, great outdoor sitting area, chill environment, and decent rooms for the price.

A true taste of Armenia. If you’re looking for something real, come here. The people are pure, the hospitality is unforgettable, and the generosity comes straight from the heart. Staying here isn’t just about a place to sleep ,it’s about connection, warmth, and feeling like you belong. Thank you for making me feel at home. I’ll definitely return. If you’re anywhere near this place, don’t hesitate ,spend at least one night. It’s an experience you won’t forget.

A worthwhile place to stay! It is an Armenian home and the mother and daughter turned part of it into a hostel for tourists. They do everything they can to help you and make you comfortable. It is a charming Armenian experience. It is a couple of KM outside Dilijan, but this is actually a bonus because the walk to it is lovely with views of the mountains and you can walk through the old town on the way too. Also, there are shops and supermarkets and cafes close to the hostel so you can get everything you need. A good addition to this hostel in my opinion would be rubber hot water bottles to keep guests warm on winter nights. I don't know if those are available in Armenia or not. I didn't see any. We can't leave the electric heater on when we sleep for safety reasons.

Nothing much. Everything was good.

Clean and peaceful place to stay at Dilijan. The host is very sweet, kind, and a lovely lady. We had a good time here. The only problem is the washroom is outside the house, so when it is really cold at night going outside to use the toilet would be a bit uncomfortable. Otherwise it was a good stay for us.

Everything was perfect, this is a very authentic experience at an Armenian house so if you are looking for something authentic this is the place.

I was in Dilijan only for one night, Simonyan and her daughter was really kind to me, she welcomed me with a hot coffee considering that it was very cold outside and the following day before leaving she asked me to take a coffee with her and her daughter. I really appreciated everything and thank you for having me at your house 🫶🫶

Lilith and Tatevik are the mother and the daughter and they are super hosts of Ojakh Hostel. I stay at their house every time I come to Dilijan. It is a cosy, tidy, beautiful handmade place in the ‘town inside the forest’ Dilijan, the Gem of Armenia. The atmosphere here is super friendly and welcoming, family home at its best with lots of love put into the rooms, shared spaces and a backyard. People from different parts of the wold come and stay here, again and again and I am one of them. Thanking Lilith and Tatevik for warm and welcoming spirit!

Such a wonderful place to stay. The beds are the most comfortable in all of Armenia. The gardens and outdoor seating area are beautiful. Lilit is a wonderful host and a wonderful person. I love this place so much. There is excellent hiking nearby. The hike to Whispering Waterfall only takes a few hours from the hostel.

Honestly I can't come up with any thing I didn't like about it. Usually I'm very demanding person and noticing lots of small and not tlso small things I didn't like, but not in this place! The only problem could be that the house is aside of tourist centrum so you have to walk for restaurants and cafe, but there is small shop just near the house.

Endlessly cozy local house of Lilit, the owner, and she is a real Georgian aunty with all her heart welcoming people to her house. If you come in the plums season be sure you'll not only eat it till your limits but she'll give you a large bag of plums for you and friends! Simple willage house in terms of facilities, though there are unusual for such house modern bathroom and toilet service. All is super clean and what's more there are art and craft everywhere, Lilit is very interesting person! WiFi, teapots etc - all is ok. House is in the main willage a bit aside from touristic centrum, so it's very calm around. I'm really happy I chose this place!

The bathroom is a bid oldschool, but I think this is the part of the experience too, it would be weird if it would be in any way luxurious and the water was always warm in the shower, which is was matters the most.

It's very authentic and the host is really nice and very charismatic. I would recommended to anyone, who want's enjoy real Armenia and relax a bit during summer in beautiful mountains.

It was okay for me for my one day stay, but if temperatures were lower I think the cold would be a challenge if you stay inside for long periods during the day. It was a sunny, maybe 6C day and dropping to 0C at night. You can manage with the small heater and a layers during the day, and warm blankets at night at that temperature, but I imagine it would be more difficult if the temps/conditions were worse. You have to go outside to get to the bathroom.

Very friendly family in an older, I assume typical Armenian family house. Quiet residential area in beautiful Dilijan. I was offered Armenian tea and cake after my arrival, both of which were yummy. Everything needed was provided.

The owner is very very kind. The furniture is older but for few days it's ok, good location. Possible to park a car.
