4 star hotels in Albania

An Absolutely Wonderful Stay - Highly Recommend! We just got back from a fantastic stay at Rafaelo Resort and I couldn't be happier with our experience. The great service started even before we arrived. I made our reservation through their Facebook page and the team was incredibly quick to respond. Their answers were always clear and very helpful, which made the booking process so smooth. We showed...

To all the ratings here, keep in mind that Rafaelo is divided in 3 parts. Rafaelo normal with the sections A to H. Next Rafaelo Executive (Maritim) with higher standards and exclusive Pool usage. Last Rafaelo Deluxe with highest standards and SPA etc. (Executive can use SPA too). We where in the Executive Hotel and everything was fine.

Clean hotel on a sandy beach, all-including food, but we did get upset stomachs and diarrhoea for the duration of the holiday. The chemist across the road sold us electrolytes frequently for 16€ each time but it never got rid of it. Pharmacist said it was common due to the water but I think it was due to the food as we only drank bottled water. I would have given the hotel 5 stars but there is an issue...

My experience was 10/10 i loved the staff , the view and the vibe was amazing. The food was delicious and the rooms were very clean , totally recommended . You should try it sometime. They had live music and very good cocktails. Also the pool was very clean .

Brilliant Hotel is simply amazing! A very clean, peaceful place — perfect for a family vacation. There’s a lot of greenery all around, which gives a fresh and relaxing atmosphere. Our kids loved the playground, while we enjoyed some peaceful time by the pool and the beach. The staff is very kind and always ready to help. The food was delicious and the facilities are well maintained. In short, a place...

I can't believe I forgot to mention the fabulous spa. Myself & 2 friends had the luxury, sauna, Turkish bath, massages, reflexology & facial it was wonderful.The staff were professional & friendly.The spa, we chose was 2 hours & great value for all the treatments & discount as they were 3 of us.The spa was immaculate & well worth the money.Treat yourself, your on holiday .

I would say that is one of the most beautiful experiences and vacation I ever had.Rooms with amazing view ,fresh food everyday and whats more important drinks and juices all day.My rate wold be 10/10.Im planning again to do my reservation for this year to Hotel Brilliant!!

Very nice hotel along the river. Good restaurants in the area but a 6€ taxiride from city centre

All qualities average and good

The Hilton Garden Inn in Tirana is an excellent choice for travelers who value comfort, cleanliness, and genuinely warm hospitality. The hotel itself is modern and well‑maintained, and the staff stand out for their friendliness and professionalism. From check‑in to check‑out, the service feels welcoming and attentive. One minor downside is that the bar closes rather early at 23:00, which can be inconvenient...

I had a great experience at this hotel from start to finish. The check-in attendant was excellent, and the manager even came over to introduce herself, which was a really nice touch. She was very kind and attentive, offered me a complimentary room upgrade without me even asking due to my Gold status, and included a few drinks as well. The staff genuinely seemed happy to share information and tips...

I had a truly wonderful stay at Hilton Garden Inn Tirana! The hotel is modern, stylish, and impeccably clean, with roomy and comfortable accommodations that made relaxing after a long day in the city effortless. The staff were exceptionally friendly, professional, and always ready to help with a warm welcome from check-in to departure. Breakfast was a highlight of my stay — abundant, delicious, and...

Nice hotel and good service. Breakfast could be better.

There is no drinking water in the room and we went to resepsion. They said bar is closed. For water we went to another hotel and we bought the water.

It was amazing! The sea view is amazing everything amazing!

Might offer real coffee as included at breakfast not charge extra. Ersatz coffee provided free not great

Basic hotel did the job for a few days not longer It's a very basic budget hotel so wasn't expecting a lot. Has parking but is limited but easiest one to park on street outside if needed, we've seen. No offer of pool towels at check in or in room, happened to see guy opening pool bar and asked. Note he disappears for 2 hours or more In afternoon. Pool was nice but windy corner so couldn't use umbrellas...

Amazing location, froendly staff

This beach hotel was a treat to all of us We checked in from a long drive and are room was brilliant We settled in and we walked down the beach walk which was amazing Kids head lovely time on the pool are and was quite and relaxing Staff was lovely and friendly Room was lovely and beautiful view Thank you New York hotel for a lovely stay

Nice place would recommend to stay here.

We stayed an extra night. This hotel was very comfortable. Even in winter, the heating was excellent, the hot water was hot, the breakfast was great, and there was free drinking water. We really liked this hotel; the main attractions are all within a few hundred meters.

The reception staff were generally very friendly and helpful, offering useful tips such as where to exchange money, which I really appreciated. The highlight of this hotel is definitely the restaurant. The Albanian cuisine is absolutely delicious - it was a real treat to dine there. I highly recommend trying the local dishes. The room itself is quite compact and the space around the bed is limited...

Staff was welcoming and efficient. Can be noisy if live events in Skanderbeg square at night. Balcony view was nice. Breakfast provided guests with energy for exploring city. Location was close to major bus station hub and other landmarks. Would recommend this hotel to anyone.

Lovely if simple room. Great view (if you have a balcony). Clean and comfortable. Great location and helpful staff. Would recommend

The hotel is located in the upscale district of Tirana, near the center of the district, so it was convenient to walk to the tourist spots.

We had already booked accomodation nearby and saw the restaurant when out walking. The restaurant team were lovely, they allowed us to bring our dog inside (out of the rain) and couldn't be friendlier. The food was great, the restaurant warm and staff attentive and helpful. Just wish we had known how great they were before we booked our other accommodation. We would have definitely preferred Amara...

Fabulous hotel, very very clean, food was good, rooms were spotless and the maid service was great. Only downside would be the amount of work going on in the area but obviously this is to improve the area. The promenade is so clean and all the bars and restaurants look well looked after, we would definitely recommend

I am a recurrent client at Amara Spa. Its always a warm welcoming from the spa team with absolute great service. The Amara Spa manager Mrs Alexandra is exeptional person and very professional. All the team Mary Ann, Olga and Olga are always smiley and happy to help. The massages provided are amazing and also the spa areas are so private, calming and inspiring. its always has been a unique experience...

The hotel offers a beautiful view and is very clean – rooms are cleaned daily with regular towel and bed linen changes. The beach staff is extremely friendly, and the food is decent, although a bit repetitive. A big downside was the use of plastic cups in the restaurant, which doesn't match the overall hotel standard. We also had a small issue with check-in – we were given an already-occupied room...

Great hotel. Nice rooms, reasonable breakfast. The strongest suit is how amazing the staff are, from reception, to housekeeping to waiters and kitchen staff. Defo location is also important as it’s close to the main roads to the airport. However, there is a downside, which is the beach crew. They will try to rip you off and make you pay for the towel (10€) even though we were guests at the hotel. This...

For a 4-star hotel, there was little variety in the food... from breakfast, lunch and dinner, in the "all-inclusive" format. The AC in the room sometimes malfunctioned, but the cleanliness was good and the beach and pool were excellent. If I return to Albania I will not stay at this hotel.

Very nice hotel at the coastline in Durrës. The room was very nice with balcony and a big bathroom. Their is a cozy pool area. The staff is super helpfull. The beach is just across the road and the sun-chairs is free when you’re staying at the hotel.

We had the most amazing time at Vila Belvedere, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Albania. Our room was on the 3rd floor, with plenty of space, a top-notch bathroom, and a very nice balcony overlooking the swimming pool and the Adriatic Sea. The food was superb, both the open-buffet breakfast in the mornings, and the dinners by the pool. We had the seafood salad with octopus, squid...

Location is good. Not in the centre of Durres, but has plenty of possibilities. Swimming pool is good and private. Cleaned daily! Staff is very friendy. Joel makes very good cocktails. Ask him for the specials and be surprised. Breakfast is complete and good. Rooms are nice, well cleaned and tidy. Mind the power outages, they are normal. Mostly during the night, so you might not even notice them. Absolutely...

If you want best of both worlds, this is the place. 2 minutes walk to the beach, without the rowdiness of beach front hotels. Still has a private beach access. One of the few to have its own swimming pool in the Durrës beach area. Service is amazing as the staff are eager to help and most can speak multiple languages. Big family trip and had so much fun. Felt welcome all our stay. The food? My goodness...

The food here was simply outstanding. Every meal, from the breakfast buffet to dinner, was a delightful experience. The variety and quality of dishes were impressive, featuring fresh ingredients and expertly crafted flavors. Whether dining in the restaurant or ordering room service, the attention to detail was evident in every bite. If you're looking for a place with top-notch cuisine, this spot won...

Great place to spend your holiday! The area outside is an oasis with a pool, wonderful plants also covered a comfortable pergola where you can enjoy really tasteful food. Food is so good that we ate here every day during the two times we spent our holiday here. Rooms are all with air-condition. Also the breakfast-buffet offers a wide range with fruits, cakes, bread, cornflakes, different kind of eggs...

Excellent!I was at their restaurant.Koran fish was impeccable.The wine was elegant and of the right temperature.The grilled veggies were freshly made.There was live music that made my dinner even better.And the service was highly professional.The waiters were more than attentive to every move of my head.The bill is higher than average as l was served the fish of the lake (Koran fish) which they are...

Hotel Pogradeci was recommended by a friend who moved to Pogradec last year. It was a great recommendation. Grizela (sic) was such a wonderful host when I checked in and throughout my stay as were everyone at the front desk. My room was spectacular. It was very modern and very comfortable. The bathroom and the shower were very modern as well. The water pressure was VERY GOOD. I will use this hotel...

Overall, a very good experience. In the afternoon, there was live music by a singer named Ari very good guy it looks like italian who performed beautiful songs from central Albania — a real highlight! I ordered pizza and a local beer, which were both enjoyable. However, I wouldn’t recommend the meatballs — they were quite disappointing.

Super friendly hotel , clean rooms and ok bathrooms . The hotel in some areas should be updated but it’s not a big issue . Beds are really good and get a balcony over the lake it’s amazing . The breakfast was ok and the dinner menu was great. They had a great outdoor terrace that was really lovely. We enjoyed our stay here and will sure be back

OK to pass some days for holiday here.OK

What an amazing hotel, both interior and exterior decor were beautiful and absolutely spotless. A very chilled out vibe around the pool (which is the cleanest and freshest pool we've ever swam in, albeit a little cold due to the season). We had interconnecting rooms which were absolutely huge and beutifully decorated with a large balcony with pool/sea view. Cleaners came every day so rooms were...

The Hotel was beautiful and perfect i will give a 10/10 the room was super clean and huge the food was delicous and tasty i think that i will come again this was amazing and fun W Sol tropikal

Room with Seaview and pool, lovely and spacious and lovely staff ❤️ thank you

The staff were so welcoming and friendly ,they never got tired of supporting us . The rooms are so spacious and very clean. The gardens are beautiful with a cool and calm environment . The hotel has it's own beach which is a good thing because you dont have to move around looking for one. The aqua zumba that was conducted by Joel ,was so amazing ,filled with joy ,fun and relaxing. I had the best...

Best hotel ever. The picture on the brochure is exactly what you get Brilliant views. Brilliant food. Brilliant staff. Wonderful atmosphere , ambience and beautiful rooms. Great value for money. It's simply the best !

Bar in restaurant only had one flat prosecco which I sent back as it was vile. They said that they had no alternative. One of the swimming pools was thick with stagnant algi and pute green, so we couldnt use it

The room is clean and tidy and the service attitude is good. If you save English when traveling, it can help the front desk staff to confirm the check-in information more quickly. Overall it is a good experience. The front desk bar is also very good.

The air conditioning did not work well, the heat in the room was horrible. We told reception that a supposed technician was coming but he never came.

The room was not necessarily what you would expect from a 4* hotel (damaged and stained walls) but did the job perfectly for one night, and allows quick access to the city center (7-10min walk)

Good service and receptionist are excellent

Please confirm your customer about your rate clearly. Without add any additional service fee when arrival to your hotels

Everything was great, the price was great. Great big room with a very nice bathroom. New hotel. Nice staff, very helpful. I'll be back.

Much more than expected Single rom is spacious enough great bathroom new facilities big screen TV fast wifi Surprising breakfast Tasty fresh good variety Location is good (there are better)

Good location, its in the main street. All staff very profesional and discrete. Good breakfast. Clean and cosy SPA zone and pool. Clean rooms.

Very good hotel. Clean a beautiful rooms. Nice location. Highly recommend.

Excellent location. Lots of shipping and dining option. The hotel design is also very cool . Staff is very friendly and professional.

I had an incredible and amazing stay at the Colosseum Hotel and Restaurant in Tirana. The rooms are beautiful and very comfortable, with all the amenities that make you feel at home. The decor and cleanliness are truly impressive, creating a relaxing and welcoming atmosphere. The restaurant offers fantastic food, and I particularly enjoyed the fish—I was very happy with the quality and taste. The staff...

Good location, friendky staff. The breakfast could be improved in terms of variety.

This was a decent hotel. Easy to find in central Tirana, nice breakfast as well as efficient staff throughout the stay.

..Wonderful location! Being right on Skanderbeg Square makes it very convenient for sightseeing, restaurants, and walking around the city. The lobby is well maintained, the room was clean, spacious and we had a nice view over the square.

Good hotel, excellent location, good service, polite reception staff and maintenance man but: We were given a room facing an inner courtyard with scaffolding and construction dust and therefore also a sealed window with the inability to open for ventilation. We asked to move to a front room and were told that everything was taken and there was no room available at the front. An unacceptable answer...

Central location, walking distance to city highlights Breakfast was good

The location is great, right in the city center. However, this 4-star hotel definitely doesn't live up to its rating! The breakfast was exactly the same every single day of our 10-day stay – absolutely nothing changed, no variety whatsoever! They seriously need to consider diversifying their breakfast offerings!

The hotel boasts an excellent location, right next to Skanderbeg Square, with views of the square. However, the room was quite small. The bathroom featured a shower-over-bath setup, but the tub itself was very narrow, making showering uncomfortable. Amenities like bathrobes and tea bags were also missing.

Me and my partner we spent some quality time in this beautiful place and. We was served by this cheerful wonderful waiter named Juxhi. I will sum up this review with one word and only simply excellent service from this wonderful cheerful waiter who made my night for me and my partner. The whole country needs to have waiters like him. Thank you for a wonderful night

Excellent experience! Everything at Regina City Hotel & Spa was perfect. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the staff was friendly and professional, the spa was relaxing, and the restaurant served great food. Top-level cleanliness and service throughout. Highly recommended and would definitely return.

I have stayed at this hotel more than a dozen times, and it has consistently been an excellent experience. The rooms are very comfortable and well maintained, and the rooftop restaurant offers an excellent selection of food and drinks. The staff is friendly, professional, and always helpful. The location is outstanding—arguably one of the best in the city. Strongly recommended to anyone visiting or...

Great hotel, such a nice and welcoming atmosphere and the staff is so polite! Rooms were very clean. Hotel is close to the beach and you can go around walking in the “Lungomare”.

Excellent stay in late September Perfect weather, the best service in the city and the SPA , amazing. The breakfast such a variaty . The hotel in the city , the main road, it was amazing to walk in the evening or during the day. For sure booking again here .

Excellent Hotel. Highly recommend. The person at the reception was very helpful. It is city centre, all amenities are nearby.

Definitely luxury style rooms, a firm bed, good air con, fridge in the room. Breakfast was a bit average though (not really hot at all) for such a nice hotel. However, the absolute star of the place is the 4th floor balcony seating area, which has SPECTACULAR views of the amphitheatre, the old city wall, the Italian coast, and town, including a ruined old house. (The double glazing in the rooms means...

The hotel is located in the heart of the small port town Durres, Albania. Old classic style could be rated between middle range and luxury class hotel. The room not the biggest one, however comfortable with twin of king bed. In the room also is small work desk. Classic design bathroom. The room is not provided with the coffee facilities, however the cattle is available as well as small fridge. Friendly...

Stayed here for a week and really enjoyed our stay. The staff were all really friendly, the buffet breakfast was excellent and the housekeeping staff did a great job. Lovely rooftop terrace with great views. Booked a taxi for our departure also. Would definitely use it again. David and Karen Scotland.

Initially I was dropped off at the cafe entrance and it was closed but the manager quickly came around the corner and brought me to the reception which was very nice & gave a great first impression. The hotel is in a little side street but the location is great, less than 5 mins to the beach (the beach here was barely a beach though) restaurants & amenities. The manager is super helpful and had great...

Great hotel, with clean and spacious rooms. Fantastic location near Albanian College Durrës, the amphitheatre and main Street of Durrës. The beach is literally a 5 minute walk. Breakfast is amazing and the staff are warm, friendly and very, very helpful!

Staff was friendly and the breakfast was great

Bad things in this hotel: broken door in our room had to use a key and it was very sceptic, hotels wifi was bad and didnt work at all. Mosquitos in the wc. Good thing: Nice receptionists and fish at the start of the lobby. broken floors and walls. i recommend this hotel only if your for a couple of frienda there.

I had a very nice stay at this hotel. The bed was very comfortable and pillows were good! My room was clean and towels changed regularly. Although this isn’t deal breaker for me and wouldn’t change my opinion of a hotel. Breakfast was included in the price and there was a very good choice. Coffee was very good. The hotel staff were friendly and very helpful. As a solo female traveller I valued the...

Very good hotel with fantastic position. Large, modern and clean rooms. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

A homey feeling hotel with a great restaurant, bar, pool and private sunbaths by the beach 🏖️ Very welcoming atmosphere, tasty restaurant and helpful staff. Rooms are simple but well furnished. I have been here solo, have enjoyed every moment of it. I felt very safe even at the beach you don’t have to worry about your belongings. Even though is September sea water is warm as well as the weather. Definitely...

The reception service is 10/10. The girls working there were the nicest and the most helpful girls ever and helped me with everything i asked them for. Would definitely come again next summer

Bel Conte - small and cozy hotel with great staff. Rooms are comfortable and clean. The reception team helpful. However, the highlight of our stay were the waiters from the beach bar. Gerard and Ensev are the stars of the Bel Conte. Thank you for making our stay special and for your beautiful hospitality. You guys are amazing! Natalia.

From all the restaurants I’ve been to in Dürres, Belconti has honestly been the best. The Greek salad was amazing, the vegetables were super fresh and you could really taste the difference. We also tried the pizza, and it was delicious, with the perfect crust and fresh toppings. The service was really good too, everyone was kind and welcoming. Prices were very reasonable considering the quality. Overall...

Simply great, we were very satisfied with the service in the pool bar and (kids club) the cleanliness and the child-friendly atmosphere with the lady Gamze in the (kids club) she was very friendly and kind to all guests and children, very entertaining, we had a lot of fun. The food in all restaurants and the service and reception in reception were very good. Unfortunately I have to criticize the service...

Hotel rooms could be much better. I had dinner there, and I was very pleased with food and service. The waiter was always there, but not intrusive, which I appreciate very much.

I had a wonderful stay at Albanian Star Hotel. The staff was extremely kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything I needed. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The location is perfect, right by the beach, which made the experience even more relaxing. The food was delicious and the service was excellent throughout my stay. I truly enjoyed my time here and would definitely...

Wonderful hotel. For Ukrainians who are now looking for an alternative to Turkey and Egypt, Albania is a great option. The food is delicious here, buffet style. The breakfast is delicious. Yogurt, coffee, pancakes, scrambled eggs - everything is fresh and delicious. The dinners are delicious, each one is special. The staff is polite and kind.

Klevis was amazing he made us feel so welcome and chatted to us every day. My dad really liked him as he recommended places to go and eat. And he helped him up and down the ramp. He really made our stay so much more special thank you Klevis your a very nice person and thank you for making me and my dad feel very welcome in your country. We truly had an amazing time thanks to you.

The beach od very close the hotel There is meny meals and they are very tasty The Staff is very kind Every day they clean the room

Super excellent , near Playa , all Perfekt 4 Sterne Hotel Excellent Kitchen, Bar im Hotel , Bar am Playa all Perfekt Clean,

I would like to take this opportunity to once again praise the hotel staff. The service was truly at a high level, just as I expected. I would also like to thank the reception, especially the young gentleman Dino, who was extremely kind, helpful, and always there for us whenever we had a question. He is truly a charming, wonderful, and polite young man who radiates such a lovely energy. Warm greetings...

People are realy friendly and professional. Amenities like pool, Fitness Center are great.

Lovely hotel! We have enjoyed our stay. Staff is so friendly, hotel is very clean and the food is exceptional for the area! One of the best hotels in Durrës from our experience. It’s worth a try!

Great rooms and a good view of the coast. Room service ,valet parking. Workers speak foreign languages. Has a bar & restaurant on site. Its one of the most expensive places around here but it's worth it at the end.

The harmoni off others city artitektur in durrës gives more prezenc and?????????? ?????

Rooms very good standard, spacious and clean, with air conditioning. During our 10 days stay, there was 1 power outage for 2 hours, and 3-4 times there was no water for 1-2 hours. Staff friendly. Breakfast and dinner poor.

I stayed at Vivas Hotel and absolutely loved every moment of it. Modern, high-quality facilities and the comfiest mattress I’ve ever had in a hotel, this was one of the best hotel experiences I’ve had anywhere. The rooms were clean and very comfortable stay. Was over as part of a large group of England football fans going to watch the game against Albania, was half expecting a bit of hostility but...

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. Everything was clean, comfortable, and very well organized. A special thanks to Mohammed Elsafty at the reception — he was truly outstanding. His professionalism, kindness, and great attitude made our stay even better. He is one of the best receptionists I’ve ever met. Highly recommended!

I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Vivas. Luciano was exceptional in his service delivery, he wore a smile always, and was happy to help. The reception could do better to attend whatsapp messages promptly, so guests dont have to go downstairs each time they need to communicate. Overal its a 4 star for me, well recommended.

Great location with such close proximity to the beach. Hotel and rooms were perfect - very clean and well furnished. Staff were always incredibly friendly and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!

First time in Albania and this hotel made me feel like I was at home. The staff are amazing and are there to help whenever you need, not to mention how clean the place was. My room was absolutely immaculate and the cleaning staff were there to make sure it stayed like that during my stay. I recommend highly. Finn from England 👍

The hotel was better than the reviews I had read ! Nice dining area / bar. Pool was nice & quiet probably time of year , our room was fine apart from the toilet button keep jamming , the breakfast was simple , we had half board included which wasn't the best , Limited choice ( not self service) & took a long time to get the food which all came out at different times & only 3 of us. It was situated...

Flower Hotel is a beautiful and peaceful place. Between the comfortable rooms, the indoor pool and the restaurant, you have everything you need for a relaxing stay. I would definitely recommend it to others. 12

We stopped by the restaurant at Flower Hotel for lunch and it was a great choice. The food was delicious and nicely presented. The staff were very kind and the service was quick.

Very nice hotel with a warm atmosphere. The room was clean and spacious, and everything was well organized. The location is convenient and the service was excellent.

We had dinner at the restaurant of Flower Hotel and everything was great. The food was fresh and well prepared, and the atmosphere was really cozy. It’s a very nice place for a relaxed dinner with friends or family.

Check in staff not the friendliest nor helpful, electric outlets in the room didn’t work, could definitely find better places.

One of my very best holidays. One of the hidden gems of Europe. A great substitute to Turkey and much better. People are very nice, helpful and polite cant complain and compare to the exploiting approach of the Turk nor their rudeness Now the hotel is very clean, a wide selection of food Helpful staff Great beach bar and area
