Bathroom was never cleaned thoroughly, mirror was dirty when we came and never cleaned. The room was dirty and the windows had so much debris it was gross. The air conditioning didn’t work, it was so hot. I asked why it didn’t work the cleaning woman said it was always like that. Very disappointed especially because the location is wonderful but staff ( front desk man) and rooms were lazy

Location good but room for improvement

My experience at the Tirana International Hotel was overall mixed. The hotel enjoys a perfect location, right in the heart of Tirana, facing the main square, which makes it an excellent base for exploring the city on foot. From that perspective, it truly delivers and has great potential to be a top reference in the capital. However, several aspects of the stay fell short of expectations. The air conditioning in the room was poor and inefficient, making it difficult to rest comfortably, especially during warm days. The bathroom was small, uncomfortable, and far from functional, with outdated fixtures that clearly need renovation. The linens and bedding looked old and worn, which gave a sense of neglect unfit for a hotel of this category. Another major disappointment was the breakfast buffet: the selection was limited, the quality was underwhelming, and the service lacked proper organization. This was particularly frustrating since breakfast is often a highlight for travelers. The staff were polite, but at times seemed overwhelmed and not attentive to detail, which added to the overall impression of inconsistency. It is a shame, because the hotel has history, prestige, and an unbeatable setting that give it a unique charm. With proper investment in modernizing the facilities and raising service standards, the Tirana International Hotel could live up to its potential and truly provide the memorable experience guests expect. For now, it remains a place with an outstanding locatio

Location is the selling point

Pros: 1) Location - right by the main square. 2) Breakfast was nice, the food and the dining room. 3) Reception area was impressive and the staff the helped with my luggage were very helpful and friendly. Cons: 1) Air con didn't work in my room. 2) Room smelt of wet carpet. 3) Staff were rude during check in. I'd stay here again purely for the location but the rooms need upgrading.

Worst Ever Stay

In a 4 star hotel like this, you expect certain standards which hotel will have but this place has crossed all limits. I had issue with cooling in the room, the technician visited twice, during the second time when technician was already there in room, a lady from reception walks in the room without basic courtesy of knocking before entering asks the technician about the issue and tells me that its fine, I asked her that its not fine since I have been in the room for quite a while now and I can't sleep like this to which she rudely says-"We can't do anything, all our rooms have same AC" and walks off the room and even asking the technician to leave. They don't know how to actually attend their guests at all. During the breakfast, staff doesn't know how to greet, all of them looked like they don't want to serve, and are just standing there for the heck of it. I asked for sliced bread, the guy there said there is loaf, you can cut it. The worst ever experience yet, there are no amenities, apparently everything is "under-construction". This should be categorised as 2 star and not 4 star.

Disappointing Stay — Only the Location is Good

The biggest issue I had with this hotel was the air conditioning — the room never felt cool enough, it was very humid and uncomfortable. The room we got is old and dusty. Cleaning service is okay, and they do a good job of refilling amenities, but the overall feel is outdated. I also think the minibar should be replaced. It would be much more useful to keep the fridge and instead provide a water kettle for coffee or tea. As for the restaurant, I was not impressed. The pasta I ordered was disappointing, and the seafood portion (especially the squid) was far too small and unsatisfying. Honestly, it’s better to eat outside — you’ll find cheaper food with much better quality and portions. The only real positive about this hotel is its location, right in the center of Tirana. But beyond that, there’s nothing particularly special or memorable about staying here.

We chose this hotel for its unbeatable central location, but sadly, service and comfort did not match the setting. With the exception of one kind and attentive gentleman on the evening shift, most staff seemed indifferent and untrained in hospitality. Our trip was last-minute due to a family emergency, and I needed reliable internet for work. Instead, I was told “we’re under new management” as an excuse for poor Wi-Fi, forcing me to work in the lobby until 2 a.m. local time on confidential matters. We also booked a double room for our family of four, assuming—like anywhere else in the world—that meant appropriate beds for two adults and two minor children. Instead, the hotel claimed our 13-year-old was “not a minor” under their policy, charged extra, and gave us a room with three single beds. My husband and I had to sleep separately, and our 6-year-old had no proper bed. It’s heartbreaking that the least welcome I’ve felt in a hotel was here in my birth country. My husband remembers this hotel as the pride of Tirana; now it feels more focused on profit than on guests. The location is great, but I will not return.

The staff at reception are so rude and ignorant. They, and the staff throughout the property need training in manners, courtesy and hospitality. The rooms are old and basic. Breakfast is cheap and poor quality. Great location but that’s it. Avoid and spend your money somewhere else.

Front desk was rude. Keeps your passport as “collateral”. Neither of the A/C in our rooms worked and when we let them know they did nothing about it. Rooms felt like saunas. Windows would not stay open to try to let some Air in. Parking was in a poorly marked garage with no working elevator. Terrible hotel and awful experience

TIH is a very good hotel with professional staff, very clean and well organized. I have been using the hotel for the past 30 years and have witnessed changes in ownership and management and that, in most areas, it has moved with times and improved its services. However, there are a couple of very important issues that the hotel has not addressed. 1. The most important shortcoming is that rooms with double bed have showers only (no bath) and rooms with twin beds have a both with a shower inside the bath. The problem with the former is that the shower cubicle is very small, probably 60x60 cm; very difficult to move about in it. Furthermore it only has a fixed shower head right at the top beyond reach of the guest. There is no hand shower alternative. Finally the curtains in the cubicle are only a few centimeters longer than the edge of the basin, meaning that often, the water gets out and floods the bathroom. The shower cubicles, the position of shower head and the curtains have not changed in 30 years. Surely the hotel can attempt to improve this situation. If they cannot expand the cubicle, they should at least provide a hand held shower head and longer curtains!! 2. The pillows are absolutely uncomfortable; they are hard and inflexible. The hotel can improve this aspect very easily. I hope the hotel will deal with these shortcomings and keep its excellent reputation.
