Our room had a gorgeous view of the water and was fairly spacious however the hotel itself is impossible to find using Google Maps or GPS. A staff person had to meet us on the main road and lead us to it then check us in. Because we were there in the off-season, no staff were actually on the premises. Once we were settled, we had to have a staff person return because there was a leak in the bathroom sink plumbing which resulted in a sizable puddle of water on the floor. When a young man came, he put a couple of bath mats over the puddles to absorb the water and said he’d fix it the next day (after we left). In the morning we had to use a couple towels to suck up more water. The toilet is in the corner of the bathroom, so close to the shower and the bidet that you have to sit sideways. The heater did not get the room warm enough and the bed had only a top sheet and a thin blanket that was only 2/3 the size of the bed. If you pulled it up to your shoulder, your feet weren’t covered. There were no extra blankets so we were quite cold all night. But the view was stunning and the room rate was low so I guess you get what you pay for (or don’t get what you don’t pay for).

Excellent hotel spa! Brand new hotel spa in Durrës. 5 min walk from bus station&harbour, close to archeological places, supermarkets, restaurants and a shopping centre. Service was excellent, mega friendly staff, really good breakfast (a la carte, huge portions), really clean, comfortable beds, safe area and the Spa was the cherry on top (Spa is free for guests). They booked me a taxi to the airport and provided early check in. Fully recommend it!
