• Armenia Marriott Hotel to Be Inaugurated June 14
  
   
  YEREVAN- On Sunday, June 14, President Robert Kocharian will inaugurate the
  246-room Armenia Marriott Hotel complex with the participation of Boston based
  investors, Marriott Hotel officials and guests.
  AK Management of Boston, which owns the new hotel, is a partnership of a
  group of investors mainly from Boston whose members are Nishan and Kevork
  Atinizian and their families, Paul Korian, Gail O"Reilly, Charles Talanian and Nevart
  Talanian.
  The hotel, which is being managed by Marriott, represents a five-year
  commitment and an investment of approximately $38 million.
  The former Armenia Hotel has been redone completely and rebuilt to
  international standards. The plumbing, the electrical system and every column, every
  supporting beam has been examined. Each room or suite has tiled bathrooms, cable
  television and safes in the rooms for valuables. The hotel also houses two
  restaurants, a Viennese café and an executive floor for conferences, seminars and
  business meetings.
  Armenians of Armenia are carrying out the renovation and it will provide jobs
  for about 300 employees, once it is inaugurated.
  AK Management selected Marriott as its manager in part because Marriott
  offered the best training program. The investors want this hotel to be a model for
  other Armenian investors and encourage others to take on similar endeavors.
