Do not go to this hotel. The rooms are sold and whoever takes them first can stay. They are not helpful at all and want to send you to an expensive hotel from there. No compensation is given.

Ne menjetek ebbe a szállodába. Eladják a szobákat és aki előbb átveszi az maradhat. Egyáltalán nem segítő készek és drága szállodába akarnak küldeni onnan. Semmilyen kártérítést nem adnak.

Worst Hotel In Albania

people very kind rooms excellent breakfast excellent hotel is on walking zone I am super because I stay here 8 days 😊👍 I wish to come again in the same hotel. Everything is here beach, supermarkets lot of restaurants everything what you need, 

super hotel kind people very good breakfast excellent rooms very clean good place on walking zone near durres amfiteatru lot of 

The room was very nice and confortable, soft and big bed, spacious shower and clean room. The air conditioner was working very well and the room was getting warm fast.The room had a lovely view and the hotel is located to the center near restaurants and shops. The breakfast was included in the room price wich is a good value, it was complet with bread, cornflakes, tea, cofee, chocolate and even eggs and sausages. The staff was kind and helpful 

Very confortable 

Very friendly and helpfull staff. 
Don’t expect everything to be perfect, but remember you are in Albania. Some of our lights aren’t working and the showerrail keeps falling Down. But the cleaning is really good and the bed is good and the rooms are big. 
If you want your room to be cleaned, remember to leave your key, as there is only one key pr room. 
The breakfast is good and fresh.

Very friendly

Firstly, I would like to thank the personnel of hotel Kristal that was extremely nice, friendly, and helpful - especially Debora and Laura that spoke good English. We had good discussions over the time period I spent in Durres. Overall, people in  Albania were really friendly and helpful.

The location of hotel Kristal is very good with the beach and city center quite near to you. You can walk everywhere. The nearest exchange and mini market are a stone's throw from the hotel. If you wish, you can visit beaches to the left from the hotel as well, but they are not that nice as the beaches to the right hand side of the hotel. I walked twice (some 3-4 kms) to the beach to the left of the hotel and once went there a bit further, by taxi to Golem beach, but didn't like it so much. Was windy, the sea was not calm and there were a lot of people. Heading to the right, you can walk and find many nice calm beaches - and you don't have to walk far. I visited several bay beaches there (all nice) as well as the Port Side Beach. Also, the next one to Port Side Beach is very good. The nearest beach to the right of the hotel is full, but if you continue walking, you find these bay beaches that are never full of people. You can also admire the breath-taking sunsets here at the beach clubs. Everything is inexpensive, so you don't have to worry about the prices.

Hotel Kristal has good price-quality ratio, too. The breakfast is fine. When you check in, just make sure that the AC is working. The devices are not the same in every room. If the AC doesn't work, they fix it - or you can change the room. Which I did (not a problem at all) and after that everything was ok. Had a splendid sea view and a nice balcony. Later they had fixed the AC in my first room. 

If you are a light sleeper the stray dogs barking outside may disturb you, but then again, stray dogs are everywhere in Durres.

Hotel with super nice personnel and location

Staying in Hotel Kirstal was definitely a mixed bag. On the plus side, the location is good, on the waterfront promenade and near to the center and the sights there; the staff was friendly and helpful; the room had an extra blanket for each bed (which came in handy as explained below); and, quite unexpectedly, the breakfast was excellent, including two eggs, sausage, bread, cheese, croissant, and good coffee. However, the infrastructure is crumbling. The shower nozzle broke off, which meant that we could only hose ourselves off, with no spray. The sink did not drain; after twenty minutes it was still full to the brim; the socket for the hair dryer had something disgusting stuck to it, so we didn't use it; and the window curtains were basically sheer, providing no light protection at all. Fortunately I always travel with clothes pins, so we pinned up the spare blankets to make the room tolerably dark. I reserved a room with a balcony with a sea view, and I have to admit that technically I did get a balcony with a sea view, but it was not at all like those you see in the property photos - it was very narrow and provided a sidelong look at the sea. This place has a lot of potential, with its Miami beach deco vibe and great location, but it needs a LOT of infrastructure work.

Desperately in need of renovations

We stayed for two nights so we could visit the amphitheatre and generally see something of Durres. Hotel Kristal was perfectly placed for both the seafront and an easy walk to town and the amphitheatre. 
We had a large comfortable room with good sized bathroom and balcony overlooking the seafront promenade - wonderful to watch the sun rise and set over the sea. There are a lot of restaurants along the front and, during our stay, a fair at one end of the promenade but it was always quiet and peaceful. A very relaxing place to stay with friendly and welcoming reception staff.
Parking for our motorbikes was on the pavement outside the main entrance.

Relaxing stay in a perfect location

We stay only one night , it is basic hotel with great location great value next to the sea .
