Excellent service and wonderful stay

Reviewed By wbatesy

Our first trip abroad post-pandemic, we had high hopes for this hotel - and it more than delivered! Located half an hour or so walk / 5-10 mins by taxi outside of the main Piazza in Durrës, you don’t get more beachfront than the Palace. There were bars, restaurants and supermarkets all nearby. They were communicative pre our arrival and ensured we had a transfer waiting. Our airline did not put one of our bags on the flight but the hotel helped chase this up the next day (we did eventually have it delivered to us.) The room was large enough for us, usual amenities and a very large bathroom but the main selling point was the fantastic view - it couldn’t be beaten, overlooking the pool and beach. The bar and restaurant were excellent and service good. The internet worked throughout for browsing and streaming, from the beach to the room and all of the public areas. Though the restaurant is more pricy than local restaurants, the food was of a high standard, they were adaptable and it was still very reasonably-priced by Western Europe standards. Breakfast for us was included and was more than adequate, having continental, Albanian and cooked options, buffet-style. We used the indoor pool and jacuzzi in the spa and had no complaints. As it was out of season, our little son was allowed to join us which was welcomed as the outdoor pool was still too cold to use despite being lovely to sit around. The private beach, perhaps because it was out of season, wasn’t really private. The sand was okay but rubbish did blow onto it. Next door, the hotel was being renovated and so there was building work going on. This didn’t impact us but it didn’t look particularly aesthetically pleasing. The sea is separated from the sand by a sea wall - probably a metre or so drop to the water. This was unusual for us but again didn’t affect us. Often, a ‘five star hotel’ doesn’t actually match up to a five star standard when visiting less touristy countries but the Palace probably was at the standard. The biggest difference between the Palace and other areas/establishments around Durrës was that the standard was being maintained throughout and not just a one-off thought or gesture. Though Albania is still someway away from being a go-to tourist destination - it’s still probably for more hardy or experienced travellers rather than your average holidaymakers - if you did choose to go there for a mini break, I’d 100% recommend staying at the Palace.

Hotel Vila Lule

Hotel Vila Lule welcomes guests into a completely harmonious environment. The hotel is situated right by the sea and its colours recall the delicate hues of the beach: soft shades of beige alternate with warm touches of decorations with natural elements. The result is an elegant, refined environment in a building that is reminiscent of colonial style holiday homes of the early 1900's, project from architect Kristo Sotiri.

Excellent hotel but take your earplugs

Reviewed By santpedor

An excellent hotel in an ideal setting but the noise level is unbearable. We stayed there on a Saturday night and there was music blasting out all evening and half the night. Even in our room on the 2nd floor the noise level was unacceptable. It's a pity as everything else about the hotel is very good. The staff were kind and helpful and the food was good. However , I needed my earplugs in order to get to sleep.

Treated Appallingly

Reviewed By JoLouDem

So disappointed and saddened by the way we’re were treated by this hotel. We booked the honeymoon suit in 2020, paid £150 deposit and went back to check again 6 months before the wedding the reservation was ok. When we arrived the night of our wedding we were told the reservation had been lost, not only that but they had also ‘lost’ our deposit and we were demanded to pay the full £300 for 2 nights in a room far far below the quality of room we booked, small, dirty and dark. We tired our best to share how unfair the situation was but they had taken my husbands identity card and would not give it back until we paid in full. I have never been treated like this is high quality hotels in the UK and would advise anyone to avoid this hotel. Much nicer and accommodating places across the same stretch of beach in Durrës. Albania is a beautiful beautiful country but sadly let down but business that want to profit for us. Don’t trust.
