Sky Hotel Tirana

First time in Tirana and I must say the people are so warm and friendly. Stayed at the Sky Hotel for 5 days and was at the buffet breakfast. each morning. Breakfast was good but what was even better was the lovely waitress Klodiana who went out of her way to make us feel at home. By the second day she had remembered what the three of us wanted for hot beverages and brought them without being asked. She took good care of us and always made time to answer all our questions and to teach us the Albanian words we wanted to learn. This was despite her running around to do her job. Always with a smile. Thank You Klodiana. You made our stay extra special !!!

Would have rated higher is not for the building work going on in the hotel at the time of our visit. There were little irritations such as a non working safe and curtains that didn’t quite close, but staff did their utmost to sort things out. All the staff were pleasant and polite, and the room was cleaned well. Breakfast was average, it would have been nice to have had a few choices of Albanian breakfast. Coffee was good as it was everywhere in Tirana. The Sky Bar and viewing platform are well worth a visit, drinks are expensive but worth it for the view.

The view was way better than than expected. The staff was nice and kind. Fredi was a great host, he has great sense of taste which resulted into him making lovely cocktails. He even suggested a few, according to my taste. The price is reasonable and the service was fast

To be clear, this review relates to the Sky Tower attached to the hotel, not the hotel itself. It is free to go to the Sky Tower. The 1 star is because of the amazing views over Tirana and the Dajti Mountains in the background. We had the Sea and Earth Tapas. The food was awful, the chicken was overfried, so very dry and chewy. A few prawns on a piece of cold, soft toast doesn't cut it. It was absolutely awful and definitely the worst food we had in Tirana. The service was dreadful. We asked for a menu, and without speaking, the waiter pointed to the code on the table. You can not order from this. Just view the menu. Then you have to wait for the waiter to come back to thevtable to take the order. Despite not being busy, this took forever. Most of the transaction was done in complete silence by the waiter. It was very unfriendly and unwelcoming.

The hotel is being restored from outside, but everything is perfect from inside. We liked the service and staff. Breakfast was good as well. The location was central. You could cover a lot by walking. Only one thing was weird, they charged the amount on the card even before we reached the hotel.

Locale molto bello e accogliente, il personale molto gentile, abbiamo ammirato il tramonto bevuto una birra, mentre il locale girava a 360 °. I prezzi variano secondo la tipologia. Una birra costa 3 euro, ma c'è una vasta scelta. Lo consiglio vivamente è un'esperienza da fare.
