Hotel Saranda Palace in Sarande

We stayed at Saranda Palace for two weeks and loved it! Perfect location right by the sea and close to everything. The rooms and hotel are spotlessly clean, and the staff offer amazing service. The restaurant food is delicious, and the large pool is beautiful and well-maintained. Highly recommend!

One of the nicest hotel on the street really clean and cozy
Pool is amazing and sun beds always free for guests
Little beach with bar and little bay for boats and jetski make an overall very VERY accommodating atmosphere 👌

We came originally for a friend’s wedding in Tirana, but decided to do a little vacation for ourselves, since we came to Albania. The drive was spectacular, Albania and the roads scenery are absolutely gorgeous. However since it’s our first time in Albania we noticed that a lot of buildings were unfinished throughout the country. We were pleasantly surprised that Sarande Palace was an exception, the building is situated towards the end of the boulevard which gives the most beautiful sunset view and quietness, as the busy section of Sarande is very noisy. Ory - the receptionist went above and beyond to make sure our stay was pleasant and perfect. She seriously runs the place and cares for the service they provide to guests. Ory gave us tips and recommendations for pretty much anything we asked, she even offered laundry and dry cleaning services if needed. The pool was clean and big, they have plenty of beds and cabanas available for guests in the beach area. The restaurant and the bars provided very good food and cocktails. The service was on a high level and the prices were competitive. The view from room balcony was spectacular. The rooms were clean, updated and thoughtfully furnished. If you are going to Sarande book this hotel, it’s worth every penny and you would have an amazing time and beautiful memories. Five stars hands down. Thank you, Ory and Sarande Palace team.

Great receptionists.
The restaurant could be better.
But overall a recomendation for everyone.

This place is absolutely incredible. The people, food, and pool are all amazing. Can’t wait to go back!

Overall, a great hotel with a superb location: direct access to the beach (not sand) and beautiful pool area. The restaurant has a great view of the sea and the hotel (only rooms with sea view) have a great view. Hotel is well located with restaurants and shopping areas around the corner, “downtown” Saranda is a good ten-minute walk away. Receptionist called taxis upon request. Breakfast buffet was decent. All in all good stay.

However, the pool area and the beach area, which both included lounge beds and chairs, were left carelessly and did not get cleaned up at night or seemingly in general. The beds had stains all over them, were left randomly around the area, and seemed to not be well taken care of. No trash cans at the beach area, which meant trash and bottles strewn around. You can only pay cash at the bar, which is inconvenient. Few vegetarian options at the restaurant. The reception was not staffed at night and we had to wait to get help with an unknown noise (turned out it was a bird that had nested in the roof). All in all, a good concept but not well executed.

Hotel was nice from the outside. Very beautiful pool and beach area. The room was big enough with a small balcony but the bathroom was very old and a bit and not practical. Breakfast was moderate and the waiters were not all too friendly

Had an amazing time at the hotel Everything very clean and very good There’s a restaurant at first floor with an excellent service and great food The staff at restaurant is very friendly Breakfast is ok but the same everyday The beach is nice too Very good location
