5 * not a chance 
Building work going on and no mention of it when we booked . One sachet of coffee in a room for 2 and not even replaced when leaving a note asking for more . Poor quality toiletries. Though the gym had lots of kit it is very dated and needs upgrading . Thought the staff were really friendly . Shame when you’re outside by pool no waiter coming to check if you want a drink . Again this is a 5 * . All these things should be compulsory better .

Don’t expect a 5* experience

Where to start… the property is being remodeled and the outside covered in scaffoldings, the inside… seems very old and outdated, the rooms… they are spacious but dark and lack of personality, the bathroom! The absolute worst!!!! So small, no space to put your toiletries and it looks like from the 60’s… the toiletries… didn’t even wanted to touch them… part of the staff is kind and friendly. The worst thin, it was 10 pm and I wanted to take a shower, I called the front desk and asked for a fresh towel and they told me no, that I needed to wait until 7am the other day! Never in my live I have been at a hotel that can not provide a towel!

Very disappointing…

I've stayed a few times and it's been very ordinary and average each time. 

All a bit soulless and staff are average.. not really anything wrong but lacking any kind of enthusiasm or friendlyness.

It's an average hotel that serves its purpose for a night in Tirana as it's well located and clean but it's nothing special 



Average in every way

You would never guess the hotel actually exists from the outside. There is scaffolding  all around it and surroundings but seems that they either runout of money or the workers are on strike. If you do not mind the obstructed view and the feel of abandonment look, the hotel has its good side. The outdoor pool is huge, the water warm, due to the temperature outside, also there is an indoor pool, kind of cold but I assume that in the winter the water must be heated. Great gym, has a sauna. The room at the Club Lounge floor ( Club lounge open but serves to nothing apparently). The breakfast was nice and is served in a very sad and poorly lit restaurant.... felt like eating and run.  The another advantage is very close to a nice park and tons of restaurants around the stadium...luckily there were no events.  The price seemed reasonable at about 100 euros a night. They must provide more outlets in the room. I had to disconnect lamps to plug my phones and computers.   From the looks of the buildings surrounding the hotel, all in scaffoldings.... it may be years away before completion.  If you are in Tirana during the hot months, a pool is a MUST. As someone else said in their review, there seems to be more employees than guests.... it soothes  me

A room with a view

The staff were all very good, so no complaints at all with them.
The hotel is covered in scaffolding, so you don't get a great view, and lots of building work is going on, but it didn't affect us, apart from the scaffolding.
The hotel provides a kettle in your room, but not coffee and milk.
Never mind, we had booked a gold room we thought, so entrance to the club lounge, for coffee, tea and soft drinks. unfortunately this week it wasn't available, use for private party.
The fridge in the room actually made things in it warmer....?
Breakfast on our first morning was nearly empty, with 2 hours left, I asked a the egg chef if they had any croissants/pastries, and he disappeared never to return, a waiter went to find out and came back with the answer, nothing was being restocked.
The gym was excellent, but it's also for use for non residents, as is the superb outside pool, but at the weekend all sunbeds were took (by the outside guests I'm sure)
And as we were in the pool on Monday, the girl came out and said it was closing for a private party, we mentioned we were guests that had booked the hotel and the pool was a big reason for that, she shrugged and said it was a late decision?
Excellent national park behind the hotel with bars and restaurants and other attractions, and very safe to walk around.
I will definitely return to Tirana, but not to this hotel

Could be so much bettet

We arrived sat night to the hotel covered in scaffolding. Hotel receptionist  provided us with room card, no explanation of where anything was other than where breakfast was. Breakfast was average, first morning 8 30am no pastries left, open till 10 30 and they couldn't replace them. We were on 5th floor. Apparently we could have access to club lounge but whilst we were there this was not available,due to private functions.
Hotel info in room was poor. We had to explore hotel ourselves to find out where pool was which was lovely except when told they had a private function 6pm Monday and as guests the mgr wanted us to move which we declined and asked to see him. We were told we could stay but would need to move to the other end of pool.area
Tirana itself very busy. The national park situated behind hotel is a real hidden gem and was the highlight alongside the food and value for money outside of this hotel. To be honest I did expect more from this hotel. Quite disappointing.

Disappointing overall to be honest

I like everything in this hotel. It was a really nice experience from A to Z. I arrived to hotel 2 hours before starting check in time, the receptionist was so helpful and as there was room ready she let me check in early. Lobby was decent. The room was specious and generally nice with a park view. Staff were so helpful. Breakfast was good. 
I will definitely be back to this hotel wherever I travel to Tirana.

Nice hotel just few minutes walking away from lake

Huge room, comfortable bed and pillows, great breakfast spread. Generally very quiet, although you can hear some noise from the stadium across the way. I'm a very light sleeper, and ear plugs were enough to block out the sound. Great stay!

Very nice hotel in central Tirana

I visited Mak Halal Wolverhampton wile I was in Wolverhampton with my family in early November 2022.
