Reviews
We had an amazing stay at Blue Marine Hotel in Durrës. The hotel is modern, stylish, and spotlessly clean, everything is perfectly maintained.
We stayed on the top floor with a stunning sea view, which made our stay even more special. The room was spacious, comfortable, and very clean. The staff were extremely friendly and always ready to help.
Breakfast was delicious and varied. The location right by the beach is perfect for a relaxing holiday.
At the buffet, there were some items missing in August 2025, and the hygiene was not at the same level as it was in 2022–2023. The swimming pool was also not as clean as before. My children got sick from the dirty water.
However, considering the prices, it is still worth going. The buffet food is very delicious.
