What People are saying
8 day visit Polish tourists
San Ton 16/08/2016 18:26Overall me and my girlfriend were satisfied with our stay at the hotel.
However the cleaning staff could have done a better job. The sink was mildly clean, the shower grimy. The faucet was greasy and stained. Floor, the toilet and the rest was OK.Clean towels everyday the usual. When it comes to accessing the Wi-Fi, well, it was malfunctioning, personally not a problem for me.I like to be off the grid on my holiday.
Not really a fault of the hotel but there is no pavement anywhere outside of the hotel.Sewer drains are sometimes missing. I think the Albanian government is not quick enough to catch up with the massive growth of tourism in the region.
The Staff - Definitely the female staff at the reception is the most helpful as they speak fluent english. However, I must say the entire hotel staff was helpful and really nice and professional.There is a guy at the beach from the hotel who will help you find your beach sunbeds and set them up.
Good location! There are a lot of shops and restaurants close nearby.Most restaurants are at the beach. There is even a beach bar/disco right at the entrance of the beach and another bar/disco at a pier nearby.
Food was good. When it comes to breakfast there could have been more variety or at least the food that was served could have been better quality.I think most northern Europeans like a good breakfast and yet there wasn't anything there to write home about.Ham was uneatable the sausage was "meh" and the bread which I think was corn bread was tasteless. The vegetables on the other hand were fabulous.I wish I could have just taken all those tomatoes with me back to Poland. Tasty jams and butter.
Dinners were great! Definite highlight! A lot of great food , plethora of fish meats pasta all very well seasoned.Lots of salads to choose from. Huge plus!
A pleasant hotel
Amra17on 04/05/2016 15:25A pleasant hotel, loose and clean rooms. Very friendly and helpful staff. The food is excellent. Distance from the beach about 50m from the center of Durres about 6 km. The hotel has an outdoor swimming pool, no sea views and is still what room you will get. Rooms have air conditioning and free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel. The town center can come by bus, the station is near the hotel, and a taxi which cost about about 10 euros in one direction.
Best hotel ever
Ejna Ion 18/10/2015 21:27I like the hotel. It is so amazing. It has very nice and comfortable rooms. It has so many diffrent details what make it nicer. It has diffrent types of food: fast food,soups,vegetables,meat,sallad,fruits and lot more. It is near to beach. It's the best hotel that i ever been in.
A comfortable and nice hotel with inappropriate location and access way to beach.
Nicolae Don 15/09/2015 20:46Best things offered by this hotel are the Adriatic’s beach, sand, water and sun. Quite UNFORGETTABLE!...But in order to walk (about hundred meters) from hotel to beach and back, only one unpaved way (with sand, dust and stones) was available. In addition, this hotel has no direct sight to the Adriatic Sea because other two lines of compact higher buildings were erected between the beach and the hotel.The main entry of hotel is located near a very noisy highway with high traffic, paraleling an old circulated railway, in front of a high rock which considerably echoes all these unwanted sounds… Between hotel’s main entry and parking there were located at least 6 big metalic cases collecting all hotel’s garbage and generating (at 35-38 degrees C) an „unforgettable” rubish smell, mainly each morning (when noisy workers discharged them ..manually!!
In addition, within the surrounding zone of hotel there are only some bars but only few shops and no paved streets, so that shopping and visiting within the hotel’s area were somewhat a difficult task.
But the hotel rooms were comfortable, very clean and big enough, meals were diversified and tasty, outdoor swimming pool was enough big and deep, staff was polite end effective (some of them even spoken some english). I very much appreciated the free WiFi connection and the availability of about three dozens of TV Channels (only in Albanian or in Italian)….
Nice holiday
Ema Čon 18/07/2015 14:36Hotel has a good service and very friendly staff the only problem is only few of them speak english. But in general, that is the main problem when in Durres or Tirana, l dont know for other places. So if you're planing to go ger your self italian or albanian dictionary. Other problem is transport from district Golem, Hotel Leonardo to Durres. No matter where you go from your hotel the price is 10€ in one way and the best way to get one is to ask someone in hotel recepcion to call it for you. For night life look for Sunrise bar, Fly and Port Side beach ll and during the day you can have coffe in Bleart's beach bar (that's the hotel near Leonardo)
