The staff at the hotel were so helpful! It’s located in an amazing area and is very clean. It could definitely use a facelift at some point, but it was priced super reasonable.

I had a rental car and the parking lot was three minutes away for five bucks a night. The hotel is in the center of everything: restaurant and bars right next door with an awesome breakfast. 10 minute walk to skandenberg square and all the shops and things to do you could want. Personnel at the hotel went above and beyond to help with check in and friendliness. Albanian people in general are the friendliest people but they drive like they’re Indy race car drivers so beware. Loved the place, the prices were unbelievably cheap for everything and we loved our visit to Tirana and Saranda. Thanks for making this hotel available.

The City Hotel is a wonderful option for travelers to Albania. It is very centrally located near the Block area, the southern part of the city, the Park, and the area around Rr Elbasanit, but it is located on a quiet road away from traffic and noise. The hotel itself is in a three story building which is clean, calm, quiet, and very nicely furnished. Its rates are affordable given its excellent location and comfortable furnishings. It's run by a friendly family who speak excellent English and are always available to help out with directions, taxis, and tours. It's highly recommended.

Wonderful small hotel in the middle of everything. Friendly staff. Very clean. Very good breakfast. One minus only. There are 4 stories of steep stairs and no elevator (the building is old). So if you have any health problems and can’t climb the stairs, this hotel is not for you. But everything else is delightful

This hotel is excellent value for money ($35/night) and included breakfast. The breakfast is simple continental in offerings although they do provide a cooked choice which varies daily. The rooms are functional , but utilitarian. This is not the Ritz. There is an en suite bathroom with shower, wash basin and toilet with soap and towels. Separate heat and AC is provided for each room. I did not use either so do not know if they are noisy. Other guests may be, but this did not bother me. There is no elevator. The staff is very friendly and speak good English. It’s close to everything and round the corner from the American Embassy which is surrounded by a 12 foot wall and armed security cards patrolling outside. I got stopped and questioned for taking a picture, a chilling experience.
