We would go back tomorrow

Albania | Jun 18 - Jun 25, 2023

We stayed, NOT at the Hotel Boka, but the Hotel Art. This was a lovely hotel, perfectly located and spotlessly clean. The staff were excellent and the breakfast was exceptional.

The ceilings in the rooms of this hotel were unbelievable. Such craftsmanship!

This was the only time on our trip that we got to speak with other travellers. It made a delightful change. Gilberto had access to the key to a local, rarely available to the public, orthodox cathedral and he gave us a private tour.

This was a quirky, but charming hotel. It was well situated within walking distance to the market and the castle.

One got the impression that the owners of this hotel are working very hard to improve the facilities and ambiance of their hotel. It was entirely comfortable, but still in yhrr we process of becoming more.

This surpassed our expectations in every way.

Great fun - colour and movement and a feast for the eyes.

It was a lovely meal, on the terrace, with good company.

We love the city of Berat. It’s like no other place. The sunset tour of the castle was breathtaking

We initially thought we would self drive, but a friend who lives in Albania convinced us otherwise. Thank goodness. Hectic, doesn’t begin to describe the traffic. Tirana is so much prettier than I had anticipated and so rich in history. We loved it.

Gorgeous city! Loved everything about this place. Don’t miss the markets.
