A welcoming and stylish hotel with the most beautiful roof terrace, where we could enjoy sea views and experience magical sunsets. The restaurant served delicious breakfast and dinner, and the service was always smiling and made sure it was always clean and neat. We ⁇ so well on this terrace that we ate most of our 14 dinners there. The hotel manager was very nice and helpful - and always had time for a little talk. The cleanliness of the hotel was absolutely amazing, we came every single day into the newly washed room, with clean towels and raised bed. The only thing we missed was a chair on the balcony,and some more knagger in the room - but this we expect to come later. The hotel is located in a quiet, somewhat remote area, we slept well and moved a lot - it took about 10 minutes to walk to the sea/strand and 30 minutes to walk to the center where there are shops, many dining places and sandy beaches. Suitable for adults, since there is no pool. We will be happy to come back, thank you for us:-) Hello Ruth & Thomas from Bergen

Gerti & his staff were the friendliest most helpful I’ve encountered on my travels, providing advice on where to get currency changed, how to get around & things to see. There are so many good points about this hotel Large modern clean rooms, mine had a queen bed & sea view ✅ Lovely atmospheric lighting ✅ Velvet sofa & fridge✅ Smart TV with YouTube& Netflix so take your login details ✅ USB charging points ✅ Excellent WiFi ✅ Plenty to eat at breakfast, no tea but that’s just me as a Brit 🙂✅
There isn’t anywhere close to the hotel to get currency changed into LEK so make sure you do that before you get to the hotel. Local buses are easy to navigate & run hourly from just outside the hotel, 40lek (40p) to get to Vlorë & the beaches A small shop next door sells essentials like sun cream, bottled water, ice creams, toiletries etc There is building work nearby but it wasn’t a problem The hotel has a restaurant on the roof terrace with stunning views of the Bay of Vlore & the sunset & there’s a gorgeous little taverna across the street You can easily walk to the beaches in about 10 mins but there aren’t any pathways, I felt safe but some may not Would recommend ✅

100/10 would recommend. The hotel was lovely, the staff were amazing, they were so welcoming and accommodating to my friends and I. Gerty, the manager was honestly an angel and made sure at every opportunity we were enjoying our stay and anything we needed was being met. The rooftop restaurant had the most amazing views and the food was both delicious and worth the money. The area is also a very short walking distance from a convenience shop and other restaurants. The hotel isn’t too far from the city centre (maybe a half an hour walk) however there are easy transport links in, within less than a minute walk you can take a bus for only 40 lek which also drops you back where you started, cabs are also available and the hotel staff will always help you navigate the area or where you’re trying to go. The location to us however was perfect as it wasn’t as busy as being in the city, it was much quieter and the local people to the area are so friendly. The hotel is very close to a variety of beautiful beaches as well as the ones closer to the city center. Overall one of the best places I’ve visited and with the best service. We are already planning our next trip back to visit Gerty and the rest of the amazing staff.

Thank you for this amazing stay, nothing to say everything was perfect. The cleanliness was nickel every morning a woman came to put the room back in order.Also the food was excellent and finally the most important thing for the relationship with the customers is the kindness of the staff, I had the pleasure of sharing conversations with the cleaning women and the people who worked at the restaurant and their kindness were very nice. They also gave my children food at an hour when the restaurant was not open because they did not want to leave the Pension at risk of a thunderstorm due to the downpour. Thank you so much for everything

We had an amazing time at Valza Boutique Hotel and would definitely recommend. Gerti and the other staff were so lovely and went above and beyond to cater to us. As young female travellers, we felt very safe in the hotel and well informed about the local area.
Nearby are a few restaurants, bars and some very beautiful beaches. Just note that the area’s being built up so there are parts that have some construction going on, but the beaches are only 5 mins away and still stunning nonetheless. Vlora town centre is about a 30 min walk away or it’s just as easy to get to by bus (for only 40 lek). I also believe there’s a secure parking garage under the hotel if you decide to drive instead.
The hotel itself has a modern style, the rooms were very clean and the beds (especially the pillows) were so comfortable. We had a great view from our balcony of the mountains across the water, which made for a picturesque scene when waking up and also when watching the sun set.
The food was really nice. They serve big portions of pasta and pizza for dinner as well as a good range of pastries in the morning. The views whilst eating were incredible, and we sat on the patio almost every day whilst having our breakfast.
We can’t wait to return in the near future and visit Valza Boutique Hotel and Gerti again! It really made our first trip to Albania one to remember

During my stay at Valza Boutique Hotel, I experienced exceptional friendliness and hospitality for a week. From the moment I arrived I was greeted with a warm welcome and immediately felt at home. The staff was extremely accommodating and always available to make my stay a memorable one. During my stay, I enjoyed a variety of delicious foods including exquisitely prepared seafood and risotto prepared by a talented chef from Italy. The authentic flavors and attention to detail made every meal a true delight. In addition to the dining experience, Valza Boutique Hotel also offered first-class accommodation. The rooms were comfortable and stylishly furnished, and the cleanliness was exemplary. The hotel's location allowed me to easily explore the area, and the staff was always willing to provide recommendations for activities and excursions.

Valza is by far the best hotel I’ve stayed in while travelling. It’s brand new so it has all the best facilities. It is super clean and the rooms are spacious. The owner will accomodate for any requests and always gives you the best value when booking. Hotel is in the perfect area surrounded by great restaurants and amazing views to watch the sunset every night. The weather is always perfect and you can eat an amazing free breakfast every morning while sitting in the sunshine. There is a massive beautiful garden where I practiced yoga every morning in the sunshine, perfect for having a drink, soaking up some sunshine, or for the children to hang out while you relax. It’s very close to the city centre and the beaches, you can walk or drive there. And the owner always helps you as much as possible when you need to rent a car, order a taxi, restaurant recommendations, etc. If you need any questions answered call or text him on +355 69 60 22 022

My friend and I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Valza Boutique Hotel for a week. I say a week, but we actually extended our stay by booking another flight so that we could stay an extra night! Gerti and his team truly made our stay so special. The rooms were modern & spacious, the beds were very comfortable, and we had a Seaview from them! Our bathroom was restocked with shampoo/shower gel every day, and handsoaps were also provided, meaning we needed very few toiletries in our hand luggage. The towels were beautifully fluffy & soft and changed daily too. The little fridge was a nice touch, as we were able to have chilled water at all times. Eda & Eddison on reception were both so kind and helpful, and happily took care of any questions we had. Pasquale the chef was an absolute superstar! We arrived late and unannounced one evening, having planned to eat elsewhere, but he still managed to create a feast for us. My friend had a DELICIOUS vegetarian pizza, so light and crisp, but without being overdone, and I had an outstanding pasta al forno. I said I'd happily have whatever was fresh, so long as it was spicy, and they absolutely delivered! The pasta was cooked perfectly, the ragu rich but not overwhelming, and the spice was spot on. Bellisima! The breakfast every morning was fresh and delicious, although it doesn't stay hot for long, so expect a temperate Mediterranean style. Great Borek too! Overall, the care and attention given to each guest is first rate. Gerti went out of his way to ensure that we had everything we needed, & more, and I would happily stay at Valza Boutique again. Faleminderit shumë!

On holiday in Vlora with my partner for a few days, we stayed at this beautiful hotel. The room was comfortable, well furnished, clean and with a semi-panoramic view, equipped with a small fridge, TV connected to the internet, a comfortable double bed, a bathroom with hairdryer, air conditioning. Cleaning is carried out every day with towels changed; breakfast is included and is international, without neglecting typical local products. The staff is always courteous and available to give the information requested by customers: they also speak Italian. We had a great time and we sincerely thank the owner, Gerti, and all his staff for the availability, friendliness and empathy shown to us. Excellent value for money. We highly recommend it.
