Hotel Mirhav is a quality smallish hotel in central Goris consisting of two buildings with good sized rooms, some with mountain views, a pleasant garden for dining or just hanging out and a good restaurant. The rooms are clean and moderately furnished with a comfortable bed, desk and wardrobe. The bathroom is also moderately sized with a roomy shower with good hot water and pressure. The water was turned off during the early afternoon hours during our stay. Amenities include a hairdryer but no safe or hot water boiler. You can, however, get coffee before the stated 8:30 breakfast hour. The Wi-Fi connection works well. There were a couple of small tour groups staying at the hotel during our stay, but generally only about 6-8 in a group. There is no air conditioning but we didn’t need it either. There is limited parking on the property but street parking is also available. Breakfast Served in the dining room, you can also eat in the garden just off the dining room, the breakfast buffet included a nice selection of Armenian dishes such as pancakes with a number of toppings – cheeses, creams and honey - cheese and cold cuts including beef tongue, cereals, nuts and dried fruit, bread and butter, omelet and fried eggs, cucumbers and tomatoes, melon and cherries. Filtered coffee, tea, milk and juice are also available. The buffet is of good quality and well presented. Dinner On a pretty summer evening we chose to dine on their garden terrace. Most guests, however, were dining inside. The extensive menu includes mostly Armenian and regional specialties. We ordered a red bean (local Goris bean) salad, eggplant rolls (stuffed with a sour cream mixture that included walnuts), grape leaves with a veal mint mixture, potato wedges and a local trout (Ishkhan) from Lake Seven. Everything was well prepared and tasty. I didn’t care for the fish because it had a river mud taste, but Don thought it was fine. It was presented with vegetables and lemons. Service was slow to start because she was attending to other patrons but once the meal got going it all worked out.
