It takes 5 minutes to drive to the airport. It is probably the best hotel near the airport. It is newly opened, but it is a bit far to walk there.
The hotel has its own restaurant, bar, swimming pool, gym and sauna, etc., and parking is free. There is a free airport shuttle bus, but you need to book it with the front desk in advance.
But there are no other facilities around and it is far from the city.
Прекрасный отель. Отдыхали с 19 по 30 сентября 2024 года. Не хотелось уезжать. При заезде оказалось, что номера, который мы бронировали, не было в наличии, и нам повысили категорию номера до самого наилучшего- двухкомнатного номера площадью более 50-ти метров с террасой тоже 50 метров- с шезлонгами, огромным зонтом, обеденным столом и небольшим столиком с креслами. И никакой доплаты! За это отдельное спасибо менеджменту отеля. Завтрак очень хороший. Всё есть. Яичница, омлеты, выпечка, овощи, фрукты, ветчины, колбасы, сыры, сосиски, печёные кабачки и баклажаны. Прекрасный кофе всех видов из кофе машины.
До моря нужно немного прогуляться около 400-500 метров по тенистой аллее из туй- приятно идти, пахнет хвоей и нет палящего солнца. Прекрасный большой песчаный пляж с лежаками и зонтами. На ресепшен также выдают полотенца или покрывала для пляжа/бассейна. Всё бесплатно. Море с пологим входом, долго достаточно мелко, зато вода всегда тёплая, даже после дождя.
Расположение примерно в 30-ти километрах от Тираны и в 30-ти километрах от Дурреса. Если хотите ездить смотреть природу/достопримесательности, нужно будет взять автомобиль напрокат.
В шаговой доступности было 3 ресторана: Gambero- лучший. Еда чисто итальянская, и везде одинаковая. Одинаково вкусная. Рыба, морепродукты, мясо, паста, пицца, салаты. Вино есть домашнее. Пиво местное вкусное, хотя я и не любитель. Есть и импортное. Также ресторан работает и в самом отеле. То же, но цены подороже. Иногда не работал.
Магазины. Есть 3 магазина : прямо за углом отеля (Eco), в соседнем посёлке Lura3 (ok) и «на пыльной дороге» (лучший, самый богатый выбор - есть сыры, фрукты, паштеты,недорогое вино, правда, итальянское- местных вин нигде не было замечено), можно пройти через «помоечный лес», но там тоже весьма грязно.
Отель однозначно рекомендую, наверное он в этой стране один из лучших, если не самый лучший. Хорошее соотношение цена/качество.
Very convenient hotel for those who want to stay close to the airport. It literally takes 5 minutes from leaving the hotel to entering the airport on foot. The hotel is new and the staff is friendly. However, an airport hotel should start breakfast earlier, at 6am or 6.30am, because anyone who stays in a hotel like this has to catch a plane the next day. As we had a flight at 8.15am and breakfast starts at 7am, not only were we unable to have breakfast, but the hotel did not provide any boxes with fruit or yogurt for us to take away. I think they should take this precaution since they are not a city center hotel but an airport hotel. The hotel has a beautiful mirrored floor that is super clean. The only major drawback for me is that any trolley that passes by makes noise in the rooms, the doors slam a lot and the corridors create an echo that disturbs your rest. The restaurant is good, the fries are homemade.
This is a new hotel but the staff are very well experienced and knowledgeable. The rooms are super modern and very well designed. Spacious and clean with 5-star amenities and Nuxe toiletries. And the bed and pillows... 😍😍😍
The spa and facilities are very clean. Parking is available for guests which is a big plus if you're driving as the area is very busy.
It's attached to a mall but has its own entrance too. Tons of restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance.
I would highly recommend it!
I stayed there during my birthday and they surely made it very special for me. Even got me a cake and a bottle of champs.
Thank you guys! Hopefully, I'll see you again soon.

Breakfast was nice too. We had a shuttle drop us off at the airport ( arranged by the hotel)
The staff were helpful and warm
Basically a fine hotel for a single night. Spacious rooms, perfect location next to the hotel. Unfortunately our air conditioning did not work. We were helped nicely by the staff but unfortunately someone had smoked in the other room, we refused that, when we said we would take the old room without air conditioning the man insisted that they would find a good room for us, that was very thoughtful. Swimming pool is fine, food in hotel is not special. Breakfast to go for the early flight is nice but not that special tasty. All in all fine!
Beautiful hotel
Reception:
Friendly and very efficient and exceptionally friendly staff
Room / facilities:
Room number 208 is on floor 2
and is very clean.
We stayed 1 night
Self control air conditioning with a door that opens to the balcony, however the air con did not really cool the room sufficiently.
The room has 2 very comfortable single beds, bench and seat, hanging area, safe , hot water hug, coffee cups and glasses (but no tea or coffee), mini fridge, phone, flat screen TV, walk in shower, which when showering water goes everywhere in the bathroom.
Parking:
is available but is limited to about 10 cars in the off street open air park area.
Wifi:
Complementary and good speed. Validation or password required.
Breakfast:
Available for all guests and consists of a small buffet, with the bonus of fresh egg products being cooked to order. Refill of the food was very slow as many foods were empty when we arrived at 9.00 am
Conclusion:
Fantastic hotel for an overnighter or a few days stay.
Id recommend this Hotel.
Letdowns:
Lack of tea and coffee in the room.
Location / Nearby:
Town, the promenade, restaurants…
Recommendations:
Ask for a rear room as you will get street noise until midnight
Getting to hotel:
If arriving by car, best use GPS
Friendly staff (despite the language barrier) and good experience overall. The pool has some algae on the walls which wasn't very inviting. The breakfast was average. The main issue was there was an old man sitting in the restaurant and chain-smoking every day despite the signs saying smoking is forbidden...

SSlow travelerThe service was excellent. The staff people are very friendly. I had to check out in the middle of the night due to my flight so I can not comment about the free breakfast. However, they have a very nice front porch atmosphere where I picked up some pizza and was able to eat on the patio which was shaded with umbrellas with no one there. It’s an easy walk from the hotel to food, coffee shop, and airport. The room was clean and quaint, but basic. No coffee pot or free water. But it did have shampoo and soap. Good air conditioning.

PPhotoguyThe hotel staff were very warm and friendly from the first moment I arrived at the hotel. They gave me a free upgrade and made sure to show me to my room.
The hotel itself is lovely, and the comfort level is just amazing. The breakfast was so good, it even has an omelet station.
I highly recommend this hotel what you are looking for a relaxing stay by the Albanian seashore.
II’m KoatchBeautiful hotel with the best service! About 2 mins walk to the beach and the best restaurant in Durres if you ask me ! The food in Xhabarka was 10/10! The hotel recommended the restaurant, taxi service and even some activities.
I wish the hotel had a pool..
Amazing front desk staff! ❤️❤️
As a black solo traveler, safety is always key and this hotel made me feel very safe!
