I stayed in hotel Kruja Tirana for 4 nights and then I returned for one extra night as I really liked it. From start to finish nothing was too much to ask, Customer service is the highlight here as well as location. One of the managers himself assisted me immediately with an issue I had with the bed , they provided me with a really comfy and new mattress topper which made all the difference, they helped me with my luggage and provided me with useful info about the area. The hotel is less than 8 mins walk to skanderberg square, very central. The staff is so friendly and they try to help as much as you can. Some speak good English some don't but they will try to help as much as they can. Breakfast is perfectly adecuate , is freshly cooked and tasty, considering I paid under £25.00 a night for a private room , I think it's great. There's plenty of hot water and towels as well. There's also a little bar on the ground floor which is handy. Things you do need to consider: There is no kettle in the room you do hear road noise but that's the same in any central location. Overall I definitely recommend this hotel due to its location , hospitality,value for money and convenience.

Only positive thing - location

The check-in process was a nightmare: no one at the reception desk, after 20 minutes a guy came from the on-site cafe asking me if I had a reservation, then he was not able to find my booking. In the end he found it somewhere on his mobile phone. Instead of buffet breakfast I was offered a glass of juice, a cup of coffee and two pieces of spinach burek. THe room was cold without heating, fortunately there was A/C which I used to warm the room a bit. Definitely have been accommodated in better hotels in Tirana. The only advantage of this one is its location near the main square. As far as the staff, I can´t say much because with the exception of the nice elderly lady in the breakfast room I didn´t meet anyone - I saw nobody at the reception desk at all.

The staff are friendly and the rooms are adequate. But the reception is often empty and the permanent staff don't speak English. The hotel's location is very good, a five minute walk from the city's main square. And a police headquarters is across the road, which should theoretically make it safer. The room had no heater and the staff bought packed snacks from a nearby store for the "breakfast included" part of the deal.

The best bits... close to Skanderbeg Square and next door to a good restaurant and bar. On to the not so good bits.... The hotel is very tired and needs some tlc. I don't expect home from home, but I expect the features to be as described... there was no rainfall shower, the TV was 22" not 32", there was no kettle, no daily housekeeping. My fridge door fell off, and the toilet leaked. I reported this but it wasn't fixed, just towels placed around the base of the toilet so that I didn't get my feet wet. Breakfast was rather uninviting also. I will say though, the bed was comfy.

Very good value

Very good location, about 10 min from Skandenberg Sq. If you like to take public transportation, this is where you go. Hotel is on a main avenue and obviously it is a little noisy. However, they kept the window blinds closed so that decreased the noise level. Good a/c, clean bathroom. Room is adequate in size, has good internet access. On my 2nd day I was surprised that the personnel told me to have some breakfast, which was not mentioned in my reservation. All in all, I had a good time in this hotel.

Great Location, But Disappointing Stay Due to Poor

The location is excellent, just a short walk to the city center. However, the hotel itself is quite old and outdated. There was a strong smell of smoke inside the hotel, and our room was so smelly at night that we had to use towels to cover the air vents. The staff was generally blunt and unwelcoming, with the exception of a young boy who was polite. The breakfast was terrible, served in a room that reeked of cigarettes, making it impossible to enjoy the meal. Additionally, staff members were listening to videos out loud, which added to the overall unpleasant experience
