Where Zvartnots Airport is and what to expect
Zvartnots Airport serves Yerevan, and its arrival hall is the starting point for both bus and taxi transfers into the city. If you’re heading to rooms at the hotel, the airport is about 11.7 km away; the drive from the hotel takes about 58 minutes.
After baggage claim, look for the terminal’s arrival zone: airport shuttle buses and taxis are available by the exit from baggage claim. Taxi vehicles use a designated parking area outside, adjacent to the arrival hall exits.
How do you get from Zvartnots Airport to Yerevan?
The N100 bus and N201 express bus are the public transport options for travel between Zvartnots Airport and central Yerevan. Visit Yerevan describes the N100 route as running to France Square, with an approximate journey time of 20 minutes to the center.
N100 bus
The N100 costs AMD 500 per person. Departures run every 30 minutes from 06:50 to 22:00, then hourly from 22:00 to 06:50. You can buy an electronic QR ticket through the TelCell app or a paper QR ticket at a TelCell payment terminal; contactless Visa and Mastercard payment on board is also available.
Four TelCell payment terminals are located in public areas of the arrival and departure halls. If you plan to pay at a terminal, allow time to find one before boarding.
N201 express bus
The N201 is an express service to central Yerevan. The fare is AMD 300 each way, payable in cash in Armenian drams, and service runs every 30 minutes from 07:00 to 22:00.
Taxi
Taxis are available at the terminal arrival zone, and the airport assigns taxi vehicles a special parking area just outside the arrival hall exits. The official Armenia tourism site gives an approximate fare of AMD 3,000 each way to Yerevan and says most airport-transfer services are available 24/7.
Choose a licensed taxi at the official airport stand rather than accepting a ride from an unregistered driver inside or around the airport. Taxi operators on airport grounds must have an airport taxi-service licence and a vehicle access pass.
Reaching the hotel area
Yeritasardakan is about 8 minutes on foot from the hotel, or about 6 minutes by car. Republic Square is about 17 minutes on foot from the hotel, or about 7 minutes by car. These local reference points can help you orient yourself after reaching the city.
Once you are settled, Yerevan’s metro, buses and walkable routes can help with onward journeys; how to get around Yerevan by metro, bus and on foot depends on which part of the city you’re visiting.
A neighbourhood walk through the area around the hotel gives another way to get to know the nearby streets.
What to check before travelling
Bus schedules, fares and payment arrangements can change, so check the Zvartnots International Airport official site before you go. If you’re relying on the N201, its service ends at 22:00; the N100 runs hourly overnight.
For a taxi, head to the official stand outside the arrival hall rather than taking an unsolicited ride. If you prefer a transfer other than the airport buses or taxi, the official Armenia tourism site also names ridesharing apps and rental cars.
