At first nigh room was not ready. The boss moved us to another hotel for free. Also, in the second nigh we complained about air-condition, she moved us to another partement.

Response from Hotel Staff on 16 Aug 2021
Dear, we are so sorry for all the inconveniences. The problem from the beginning was the air conditioning which was not working anymore. We thought that we fixed it after the first night when after the technician came but unfortunately not. Thank you again for your kindly understanding and please accept once again our deepest apologies. Best regards!

The hotel is small, clean and comfortable. I was apprehensive being on the outskirts of town but it is a short ride to city center and in the end I was glad for the peacefulness. The people at the hotel are so kind, gracious and accommodating . I would definitely recommend and i would definitely stay again. Thank you all for a wonderful welcoming experience!

Perfect stay on the edge of the city.
Excellent stay at Hotel Baron. The staff was kind, helpful, and sweet. The room and bed were large, very comfortable, and clean. We enjoyed lovely Albanian food in the restaurant for dinner and breakfast. The room had a/c, and the bathroom is huge. We purposely wanted to stay on the outer edge of town, so the location was good for us - almost rural, but still in the city. Grounds were very pretty.

All the good reviews are written by them
Whilst i was staying there i was not the only one who had problems other guest were arguing with them. First of they ruined alot of my clothes. If you make the mistake of putting yourself in the situation that i did and go to this hotel DO NOT use their laundry service. I bought this brand new pair of shorts and they got ripped, also two of my jumpers had rips in them it was like a cat had gone in and started ripping them. They were like "oh well" after i showed them. They will try anything to get money out of you. I paid for something and they said we can only give you your change back in water i booked 29th to 2nd realised i made a mistake and moved it 30th to the 3rd. I got a conformation that it was done. On the 2nd the lady saidchecking out? I was like no? and showed her the booking. She said no you have to pay another night. I told her i dont have to pay for something i payed for. I managed to win that argument. when i checked in on the 30th i showed the guy my changed check in date when i got in just to make sure he knew. He saw it had been changed. it was 5am. I said can i check in now and he said yes. I thought i would have to wait till 12 but he said i could go in now so i did. So then the lady said i had to pay for that. there might have been a communication barrier but he said i could go in then so i did. It is not my fault if he told me i could go in for the 30th then for free. I was told it was free no price was set therefore not my fault

Very disappointing 4 night stay
This was supposed to be a 3 star hotel. I would've only given it 1.5 or 2 stars. I didn't like the location, since it was farther from the center than I liked. The room was very cold, with only a portable heater to plug in for warmth. It didn't give out that much heat. I'm glad there was an extra blanket in the room to put over the bed. Housekeeping seemed non-existent. In the four nights I stayed there, no one asked if I needed anything and the housekeeper never knocked on my door. Do not disturb signs did not exist here. The room was furnished with 3 old wicker chairs, one of which looked like it had a leg broken. I didn't dare sit on any of them. There were only 2 small and old yellow towels to use, as well as a very small bar of soap and a packet of all in one hair and body shampoo. The television was an old tube one with an antenna that didn't get a lot of channels. The shared bathroom didn't have toilet paper half the time. The window was left open, so the bathroom was always very cold. I couldn't close the window, as it was too high up. The room did not have a closet or a phone. It was a noisy place to stay. It was noisy outside and inside the hotel, such as dogs barking outside at night, other guests, traffic, employees, etc. I've read other reviews from guests that stated they were treated like family and the staff was very friendly. I didn't feel like family at all or feel too welcome. The 20 Euro hotel taxi ride to the airport went well.

OK hotel, but room not as advertised!
Booked two double rooms with AC and shared bathrooms. Upon arriving at hotel, was given two double rooms with shared bathrooms but WITHOUT AC. After bringing this up with management, was told that rooms with AC had separate bathrooms, and we were forced to pay the difference for rooms with air conditioning. In two words: false advertising! Other than that, the hotel was OK - decent place for travelers arriving by car (secure parking), but about 5 km outside of the city center.

A 10-15 minute (5 Euro) taxi ride from the main square, this hotel provided a warm friendly welcome. Helpful staff who were on hand throughout our stay and only wanted to make your stay more comfortable. Whilst the facilities are basic, that is reflected in the price.

The staff was extremely attentive and made all efforts to help on anything. They had good English (during the day). The surroundings are really good as well, quiet and beautiful. A bit distant from the city, though, but this might be a good thing in Tirana.

The hotel is simple, but pretty nice! It's distant from the city center, but in Tirana, this might be a good thing. The staff is really attentive and, although not all of them speak English, there's always someone fluent during the day. Also, the place is quiet and the neighborhood is beautiful. I'd definitely come back!

Bit difficult to find, but rooms were well furnished and clean and staff were brilliant and always willing to help. Only downside for us was how cold the room was. There was a small heater in the room but it didn't give out much heat. Would go back but ask for more blankets.

“Clean and pleasant with wonderful staff and great breakfast!!”
We were only in Tirana one night -- arrived after supper and left the next morning after a leisurely breakfast. The manager and her family live in part of the hotel and are very welcoming. The rooms were clean and the bed we had was good, although our friends said that their bed was a bit saggy. Both rooms had nice balconies. The breakfast the next morning (which was included in the price) was delicious -- petulla (fried dough), garden tomatoes, feta cheese, home-made apple marmalade, cheese omelet, orange juice and large macchiato. We felt like family. There's a beautiful garden area with tables and chairs for coffee in the summer. We will definitely stay here the next time we're in Tirana!

The best thing about this hotel was the welcoming and helpful staff, who spoke some English, German and Italian. Rooms comfrotable though some equipment e.g.TV did not work too well. Several km from city centre, which suited us as we needed to be that side of the city. Restaurant - good and good value.

Hotel Restaurant Baron in Tirana
Only 200m to bus stop at end of Saux, City Line to Centre. We found the staff at the hotel to be extremely helpful indeed willing to take time out to write out various route directions re buses etc on our various excursions around Tirana. The rooms were very well maintained and the hotel provided a good selection of food. It was a very enjoyable stay in a peaceful suburb of Tirana. We would certainly stay again.

Good for drivers
The hotel was good for drivers, secure parking was a major feature for us. The hotel staff were very, very kind and helpful, the room was simple and clean. Wifi worked. The breakfast was good. The price was good for the features provided. We had dinner on the balcony and this was very pleasant. This is very much a family run hotel and we enjoyed the experience. The drive into town was short and easy. Check your maps are up to date if travelling to Croatia, there are numerous road works. All you ever read about the drivers is true!

The hotel was fine but a few miles from the city center. I pre-paid for 4 nights, but I only stayed 2 nights--May 5 & 6. I ate breakfast in the morning. The first one I was charged for, the second one I was not charged for. I don't know what happened there, but there was not a lot of English spoken.

Hello,I am so sorry to read the review.This was disappointing since you came at 2am and left the hotel at 8am. I don’t know what you saw in the hotel to make you write this review. Although, I was expecting a bad review from you since you wanted to leave the hotel without paying the city tax and you had a bad behavior with our receptionist.Anyway, we know that there is always place to do better and we are happy to receive suggestions, reviews that makes you reflect and have a better version but when all the thing are untrue, we are only disappointed.Whishing you well.With best regards!
