Detailed Reviews
The location is perfect as you can easily walk into central Tirana and Bloku is around the corner. There are excellent bars and restaurants close to the hotel. While the hotel is basic, it is good value for money and the owners/managers are very helpful. I would definitely recommend both the hotel and Tirana.

We had a great stay at the City Hotel in Tirana. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the hotel is in a great location. Parking in the nearby recommended car park overnight was OK too. We could walk to the places we wished to visit and the room was about right for the price we paid. We had a simple but welcome breakfast each morning and enjoyed chatting to the family (I assume family) who run the hotel. I would recommend and if we came again would stay again.

The hotel is a wonderful option for travelers to Tirana. It's located in a quiet area within walking distance of Tirana's center, the Block entertain district, and all sorts of other attractions, dining, and shopping. It's also close to the park and lake.
The hotel itself is immaculately clean, comfortable, and well-cared for, and is run by a friendly family with excellent English and who are always ready to help with taxis, tours, or whatever you need.
The hotel is affordable, comfortable, and well-located. It's a great option for business and leisure travelers. Highly recommended!

The City Hotel is hands down the best place to stay in Tirana. It is perfectly located on a charming street near tons of great bars and restaurants, and just a short walk from most of the main attractions. Even though it's in the center of everything, it's peaceful and quiet. The price can't be beat, and the rooms are spotlessly clean and well-appointed. Don't miss the breakfast- it is a true feast and very delicious! More than anything else though, the owners are so warm, welcoming, and friendly. They go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and have everything you need for your stay. I can't recommend this hotel enough!

One of my best experiences ever. The location is near from all important spots in Tirana, very clean, good food. The most amazing in the experience is the staff they make you feel like at home with, extremely friendly and supportive.

The perfect hotel. Cute, great location (close to the main square and all the sights and restaurants) and the perfect hosts. You cannot do better. Edmond and Linda, who run the place, are very friendly and make you feel at home, and along with their excellent staff, were a big reason for my great vacation in Tirana. The amenities like AC, WIFI etc. worked smoothly and the helpful staff immediately addressed our requests. The delicious breakfast was icing on the cake. Edmond, (an Albanian Musketeer), is a font of information about places and things to do in Albania and Montenegro. He is almost as much of a Tirana institution as the tourist sites of the city. Book a room at the City Hotel to ensure a memorable and thoroughly enjoyable stay. Highly recommend!!
