Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were in perfect order, very well-appointed, and spotlessly clean, making them beautiful and by far the best we had during our tour of Albania. However, they were located just above the restaurant with loud music, which could be a downside.
The hotel offered well-appointed and spotlessly clean rooms, but they were smaller and older looking than expected. The service went above and beyond with polite and helpful staff, although there were instances of staff being reprimanded. The location was ideal, close to local bars and restaurants, yet the proximity to a popular rooftop bar was noted. The dining options were good with a decent selection available. While there were no specific comments on facilities, the hotel provided all necessary amenities for a comfortable stay.
My stay at the hotel was delightful! The rooms were big and spacious, very clean and comfortable, equipped with all modern conveniences. The central location made it easy to access bars, restaurants, and other attractions. The service was outstanding, with staff going out of their way to assist with every little thing. While the rooftop bar service was average, the overall service was top-notch. The location was perfect, next to the park, restaurants, and bars, in Tirana's best neighborhood.
The hotel rooms are opulent to the ridiculous, especially when considering how young the establishment is. They offer different views and are located in another building where I stayed previously without any issue. The breakfast on the roof was delightful despite the hot weather.
The hotel room I stayed in was amazing, and really value for money. Despite some disturbances from a loud drunken guest, the overall experience was great. I understand they are working on higher floors which will contain suites.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms in a convenient location, close to attractions and free from outside noise. The friendly staff is a highlight, but communication in English can be challenging at times. The ongoing refurbishment may cause temporary inconveniences, but overall the hotel is a great choice for a stay in Tirana.
