New York Capsule Hotel

New York Capsule Hotel Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to the New York Capsule Hotel on Koryun Street, I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect — the concept of capsule hotels is still pretty new to Yerevan. But you know what? This four-star property actually pulls it off really well. The entrance feels modern and clean, with a sleek design that immediately tells you this isn’t your typical Armenian guesthouse. The staff greeted me in perfect English, which was refreshing after struggling with my limited Armenian all day.

The Capsule Experience

I’ll be straight with you — the room is tiny, but that’s entirely the point. Each capsule is surprisingly well-designed, with enough space to sit up comfortably and actually stretch out when lying down. The privacy curtain blocks out light completely, and they’ve somehow managed to fit in a small TV, reading light, and charging ports without making it feel cramped. What impressed me most was how quiet it stays despite having other guests just feet away — the soundproofing is genuinely good.

Location Perks

Here’s where this place really shines — Koryun Street puts you right in the heart of everything that matters in Yerevan. You’re maybe a five-minute walk from Republic Square, and honestly, some of the city’s best cafes and bars are practically on your doorstep. I mean, you can grab breakfast at one of those trendy spots on Saryan Street, then walk to the Cascade in about ten minutes. The location feedback about couples loving it makes total sense — there’s something romantic about strolling through this neighborhood in the evening.

Practical Stuff

The shared facilities are where they’ve really invested the money, and it shows. The bathrooms are spotless and modern — actually nicer than some traditional hotels I’ve stayed at in the region. There’s a common area where you can hang out and meet other travelers, plus they have lockers for your bigger luggage since storage in the capsules is limited. The parking situation is decent too, though I’d recommend asking about it when you book since spaces can fill up during busy periods.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this isn’t for everyone — if you need space to spread out or you’re traveling with lots of gear, you might feel cramped. But for solo travelers or couples who plan to spend most of their time exploring the city, it’s actually brilliant. The price point is fair for what you get, especially considering that prime location. Recent guests keep raving about how clean and well-maintained everything is, and I can see why — there’s clearly attention to detail here that you don’t always find in Yerevan’s hospitality scene. Plus, there’s something kind of fun about the whole capsule concept that makes the stay feel like part of the adventure rather than just a place to crash.
