Best Western International, Inc. owns the Best Western Hotels & Resorts brand, which it licenses to over 4,700 hotels worldwide. The franchise, with its corporate headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona, includes more than 2,000 hotels in North America. The brand was founded by M. K. Guertin in 1946. As of December 2021, Larry Cuculic is the president and CEO of Best Western.
In 1964, Canadian hotel owners joined the system. Best Western then expanded to Mexico, Australia, and New Zealand in 1976.
In 2002, Best Western International launched Best Western Premier in Europe and Asia. (The other hotels in the chain were known as Best Western.) In 2011, the chain's branding system-wide changed to a three-tiered system: Best Western, Best Western Plus, and Best Western Premier.
Best Western began in the years following World War II. At the time, most hotels were either large urban properties or smaller family-owned roadside hotels. In California, a network of independent hotel operators began making referrals of each other to travelers. This "referral system" consisted of phone calls between one desk operator and another. This small and informal network eventually grew into the modern Best Western hotel brand founded by M.K. Guertin in 1946.
The name "Best Western" originated from the fact that most of the chain's original operators were west of the Mississippi River in the United States. By 1962, Best Western had the only hospitality reservations service covering the entire United States, and in 1963, was the largest motel brand in the industry with 699 member properties and 35,201 rooms. From 1946 to 1964, Best Western had a marketing partnership with Quality Courts, the forerunner of the chain known today as Quality Inns, whose properties were located mostly east of the Mississippi River, and thus not in direct competition with Best Western. This partnership made sense geographically, but was not successful in the long run, and was eventually abandoned. In 1964, Best Western launched an expansion effort of its own operations east of the Mississippi under the name "Best Eastern" for those properties with the same typeset and Gold Crown logo as "Best Western." By 1967, the "Best Eastern" name was dropped and all motels from coast-to-coast got the "Best Western" name and Gold Crown, a move that would further enhance an already successful marketing brand into the "World's Largest Hotel Chain" by the 1970s.
The best hotel in Dilijan, Armenia, by a long distance from other hotels, is undoubtedly Best Western Paradise. While this hotel is beautiful, it is built on the base of the mountain, which makes the atmosphere very forest-like. To be more precise, this hotel has adhered to all the standards of a hotel. From large and luxurious rooms, a very beautiful and wide balcony, a bathroom and all high-quality facilities, it brings perfectionism and human dignity to life.
Premium hotels are mostly built at a distance from the city center, which can invite guests to relax for a while away from it. Best Western Plus Paradise Dilijan Hotel has given special importance to this point. So, whether you plan to travel to Dilijan from the west side, or from the south side and Sevan Lake, you will have the ability to experience peace in a less touched nature during your stay. Even if you intend to travel to places far away from the hotel, you can call the reception and request a taxi.
A hot coffee, cool air, soft seats, a wide balcony, need a wonderful view.
There is probably no need to explain, that in the construction of most premium hotels, special attention is paid to the view, as you can feel the whole Dilijan area under your feet at the Best Western Dilijan Hotel, you can see from the northern mountains of the city center to the road leading to Sevan Lake.The landscape of the hotel engraves wonderful images that will remain in your mind forever, and even if you are not interested in taking pictures, your hand will go to your mobile phone immediately.
I felt lucky to have been a guest of this hotel in winter, because the snow-covered forests, snowfall, and the weather made it very romantic here, but looking at the pictures of other seasons, I think that this hotel could be beautiful in all other seasons.
The welcome in this hotel is done with great respect. The hosts will first guide you to the room, and ask you to visit them after a short break to sign the contract. At the same time, they complete their welcome with a fresh cake in the room.
Best Western Dilijan Hotel, as you think, like a palace is created in the heart of the forest, maybe your idea of forest houses is a small wooden hut, but this hotel fulfills this idea and provides a dream life in the forest.
The little Switzerland of Armenia should be experienced in the way you read in the stories, and the Best Western Plus Paradise Dilijan Hotel provides the opportunity to experience what you have seen in the movies for a while.
Best Western Dilijan has very clean, warm, beautiful rooms with wonderful architecture. Accurate engineering in the use of different colored curtains in their designated place, simple plan and large rooms, have made the rooms of this hotel very cozy. Soft king beds, wide windows, extra large balconies with wide-view design, television, and most importantly, silence and the sound of nature, modern bathroom with simple design, have made the rooms of this hotel very unique.
Other facilities of the hotel include two separate swimming pools. One in the basement of the hotel, for the winter season, and the other in open air, for the summer season. Since my stay was in winter, I only used the winter pool, but I also posted pictures of summer outdoor pool.
The pool is very clean and standard, with enough changing rooms, and multiple showers, towels and other amenities that make this a premium pool. Dry sauna, jacuzzi, and a bigger hall for swimming, made me spend my time in the pool of this hotel every night.
Indeed, swimming in the summer season of this hotel will be enjoyable as well.

This hotel has several restaurants with different views. Although all of them are beautiful and cannot be compared with each other. But from the quality of its food, I can mention its breakfast as one of the best breakfasts in a hotel.
The multi-stage breakfast of Best Western Dilijan Hotel tries to create a unique stay for the guests. A breakfast designed according to everyone's taste. Your food taste is very important to them, as before serving the breakfast omelette, they ask you about its ingredients, they prepare what you want for you. Finally, you will be served on a plate with different types of cheese, different types of pickles, different types of sausages, two fresh and different salads, fresh peeled fruits, different breads and of course your favorite morning coffee. The breakfast waiters are very pleasant, kind, with a natural smile, this is very important. The point that I always pay attention to when visiting a hotel is this. Mornings are very important, and a hotel can design your day, all these elements go hand in hand to architect your day.
Dinner and lunch at Best Western Dilijan Hotel are served in the open air of this hotel, the restaurant menu includes a variety of fresh local Armenian and international food.
