Chateau Fasel in Tirana

This place is a take of two halves, and for that reason I would absolutely not set foot in it again. On one hand you have a beautiful hotel, an incredible pool with a view to die for, decently priced, great quality food and drinks, and some excellent staff. The rooms are generous in size, and the location and hotel itself are the stuff of dreams. But - there seems to be a conflict between the experience the hotel wants to offer, and (not quite sure I'm right here) the family who own the hotel. Which means that whilst on one hand you have a high class, relaxing (look at the room key, chateau Fasel claims to be a oasis of tranquility!!!!!!!!) environment. Until one of the lads from the kitchen, who clearly hasn't got enough to do comes out and cranks up the ridiculously oversized dj booth like he thinks he's banging out a set in Ibiza. Well here's some news, you're not, you're destroying the peace and tranquility of the venue, which is the reason people have chosen to book a break at the hotel for!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's absolutely ridiculous to allow this to continue, idk what they're trying to prove, but you absolutely CANNOT charge guests £140 a night, then whack the music around the pool up to insane levels during the day, and continue that until 1am. I can't upload the video is the racket in the bedroom at half past midnight in here, but I've uploaded it on Google reviews if anyone wants to clarify their decision. The photo is of a cinema showing right outside the hotel bedrooms, and that went on really loudly until midnight! So - great place, as per above, but I would not set foot in it again to be assaulted by this level of disrespect to paying hotel guests. It's insulting, and shameful tbh. Egomania on steroids. Really really disappointing.

Honeymoon weekend ruined.
We decided to spent 2 nights of our honeymoon at this beautiful looking hotel. When we arrived, we instantly knew, that a mistake had been made. The hotel was under renovation. All the beautiful and charming little areas from the pictures were sealed off and unavailable.
We went to the reception, but we were not met by anyone. We looked around for some employees, but no one were there. We tried the bar, which were just a huge mess of dishes and glasses, probably from the night before, but again, no one was there.
We went outside and to our surprise, we found a hotel employee helping the construction workers.
We finally got our room and unpacked with a bad feeling about the 2 coming days.
We arrived a friday and looked forward to a relaxing weekend. We went outside to the only available sitting areas to get something to drink. Meanwhile an old watertruck had arrived and were delivering water to the new pool. So, a blaring watertruck, angle grinders, rotary hammer drills and shouting construction workers, this was the soundpicture of our afternoon.
No one came to help us, so at last we went inside ourselves to ask for a menu or drinkscard. They didn’t have a menu for the bar, because they were renovating. At this point, we asked a waiter if there were gonna be noisy from the construction all weekend. He smirked, said yes and then straight up laughed. This was were we gave up the hopes for a good romantic weekend on our honeymoon.

Overpriced for the quality.. Things we ordered were missing in the kitchen and we ordered something more expensive .. with these money we spent for a lunch we could have 3 lunches in better places.. definitely do not recommend and never going again!
