Grand Hotel Europa

There was a music festival right next to the hotel and the music was unbelievably loud up until midnight. The hotel refused to move us, even though they had rooms available on numerous hotel booking sites. The calls to prayer from the adjacent mosque began at Dawn so we had virtually no sleep.

I booked this hotel because it advertised as having a swimming pool. It does, but was closed whilst we visited and apparently is closed most of the time. The public areas are very lavish. Rooms are on the small side…certainly not 5 stars. Staff very helpful.

havuz bakımdaydı ve odalar kısmen eski malzemelerle doluydu. Temizlik orta sayılır, kahvaltı çeşidi iyiydi, akşam yemeği tur anlaşmalı fix menüydü ve eh işte denilebilir düzeydeydi. 5 yıldız kavramında türkiyedekiler ile kıyaskanamaz.

Located in the centre of town is a very plush offering. The lobby is all marble, chandeliers and velvet furniture. This extends to the room filled with big dark wood coloured furniture and marble bathroom. Our room had a view over the park and lots of natural light. The room had a musty smell but this was managed by airing the room out by opening the window. Some of the bathroom fittings, like the towel racks, were a bit loose. The shower in a bath is a big step out and I guess the bathroom fittings were nearby grip points. Wifi access and speed was fine. Breakfast was fine, a standard continental breakfast set of options. The pool and spa didn’t appear to be operational.

We were in this hotel for 3 days and it was everything excellent. The rooms were clean and everything in order. Front desk very nice and also the service very professional. I highly recommend this hotel for who want to visit Shkoder you are in the heart of the city.
