Hotel Plaza, Tirana: Great Location Right in the City Center
Hotel Plaza enjoys a fantastic spot right in the heart of Tirana. It’s just a short walk to major attractions like Skanderbeg Square and the National Historical Museum, which made it really easy to explore the city’s culture. Plus, there are plenty of cafes, restaurants, and shops nearby, so grabbing a meal or doing some shopping was never a hassle.
Comfortable and Well-Equipped Rooms
The rooms at Hotel Plaza are modern and stylish, designed to be both comfortable and practical. I stayed on one of the upper floors, and the view of the city was a nice bonus. The room had everything I needed-strong Wi-Fi, a clean bathroom, and air conditioning that worked well. The bed was cozy and helped me get a good night’s sleep, which is always important when traveling. The hotel also offers free underground parking, which is a real plus if you’re driving.
Friendly and Efficient Staff
Most of the staff were friendly and quick to help. Checking in and out was smooth, and whenever I had a question, they answered politely and without delay. The team seemed professional and focused on making sure guests had a good stay. While service was generally excellent, a few guests have mentioned minor hiccups with early morning requests or concierge communication, but these seemed to be exceptions rather than the rule.
Tasty and Varied Breakfast
Breakfast was a highlight, with plenty of options to suit different tastes. There was fresh fruit, a variety of pastries, cooked breakfast dishes, and even some local Albanian specialties to try. The coffee was good quality too, which made mornings even better. Occasionally, some items took a little longer to be replenished, but overall the buffet was well-stocked and satisfying.
Extra Amenities That Add Value
Beyond the basics, Hotel Plaza offers some nice extras. The Oblivion Spa is a real treat, featuring a sauna, steam room, salt room, and a range of relaxing massage treatments. The lobby has comfortable seating areas perfect for unwinding or chatting, adding to the overall welcoming atmosphere. Just keep in mind that during busy times, some noise from the spa area can carry into nearby spaces.
Final Thoughts
All in all, Hotel Plaza in Tirana is a solid choice if you want a well-located, comfortable place to stay. Its central location makes sightseeing easy, and the modern rooms plus helpful staff add to a positive experience. It’s a bit pricier than some other options, but the convenience, comfort, and style make it worth considering. The free parking and quality spa facilities add extra value, and despite a few minor service hiccups reported by some guests, my stay definitely made exploring Tirana more enjoyable.
