Sar'Otel Boutique Hotel

By far the most hospitable manager and staff ever. The manager, Gerando, was very friendly and extremely polite and helpful. Each morning he would happily answer questions and give us travel tips. He offered to have a staff member walk us to the bus stop for our day trip! He kindly arranged a taxi transfer back to the airport at a reduced rate. Need to mention Valbona and Seabastjano, both who were very helpful at breakfast time. We were able to order off menu for breakfast. The staff all speak good English. Location is perfect. The bus from the airport stops literally a 1-2 minute walk from the property on a well-lit and popular route. All the local sites are walking distance. Nearby restaurants, convenience shop and exchange. Room was clean with plenty of space. We had a balcony on the garden side. Bathroom was clean and modern. There was a kettle in the room, smart tv and fridge. Highly recommend this hotel. We felt like guests staying with friends!

5-10 min walk to centre. 2 mins walk to bus links and airport transfer buses. Good location. Lovely staff. Easy access. Comfortable bed. Nicely set out rooms. Lots of self-service and unrestricted continental breakfast. Great WiFi. Good satellite TV channels (CNN and BBC News etc). Great room cleaning. Mini bar in room if you wish to use it.

The hotel staff were very friendly and all spoke English which helped us a lot. The room was true to the description with a King bed, they were out of rooms with twin but, it was a family trip and there was plenty of room. Showers are warm and with tons of pressure. Even though the hotel is in one of the busiest sections of Tirana, their windows were really sound proof and I heard nothing from outside. During the day I sat on the Balcony and just enjoyed being there. Breakfast was a really long window of 7am to 11 am and that is highly unusual. It was a good buffet with Albanian dishes as well as more well known items. The dining area can probably sit every guest which is a huge plus. One personal story... i misplaced my jacket during one of my many walks around Tirana. I figured I had left it in the cafe area in the hotel but, assumed it was lost. The next morning I saw it placed on a rack for me. Not a huge effort but a thoughtful one. Know you are in a hotel where you will be fine and can really explore a great city.

Staff were very helpful and super kind from the start to finish. Not only with us, with everyone. Location was great, close to everything. Room was very spacious, slippers were included, as well as toiletries in the bathroom. Kettle with tea and coffee. Buffet breakfast was also nice with some local food included. Even got a free transfer back to the airport, arranged by the hotel. Thanks so much!! Only can recommend them and would stay here again! 😊

Breakfast was very very set-up and plentiful! The staff were super professional and just all around adorable! The staff hospitality was amazing, they care for the pottery as though it was their own home.
