Dolanit Boutique Hotel

just come back from the Dolanit Hotels Lubjana in Durres, we were a group of 7 ladies and stayed at this quaint hotel where the staff where amazing. Nothing was too much trouble for them, anything we asked for they accommodated. Christian on reception was very helpful in arranging taxi's for us. The staff in the restaurant were brilliant especially Simela (I think that's how you spell ) who provided us with everything we wanted - nothing was too much for her and her colleagues. Breakfast is continental but was enough The rooms were very comfortable and had what we needed, only thing was they did smell a bit of drainage, which we told Christian about and felt like it was sorted for a day or so but the smell was back again. Cleaners came everyday to clean and change the towels. The hotel is a minute from the beach and the hotel has its own private beach where sunbeds and shades are provided. no beach towels so take your own. Tirana is about 35/40 mins taxi ride and lots to do there especially the cable car ride is worth it to see the views. Overall our group had a great time and the hotel is convenient and ALL the staff made it a pleasant stay

We had a lovely stay at this hotel and would happily recommend it. The hotel was absolutely spotless throughout our stay, and the cleaner on our floor was always so friendly and helpful. The reception team were fantastic too. Kristian, along with another receptionist whose name I unfortunately didn't catch, were always cheerful, welcoming, and happy to help with anything we asked—no matter how small or silly it was. A special mention also goes to Sala at the bar. He made excellent cocktails and was such a friendly, personable guy. I can highly recommend the strawberry daiquiri and the piña colada! Breakfast was good overall, although there were a couple of things that could be improved. The coffee machine wasn't the best, and because many of the breakfast items weren't labelled, I wasn't always sure what I was eating. That said, the rectangular brown pastries served with tzatziki were absolutely delicious, and the cakes were amazing too. There were a few city-wide power cuts while we were there, but the hotel staff handled everything really well and kept things running as smoothly as possible. When the lifts weren't available, the stairways were wide, had handrails, and felt safe and easy to use. Overall, the excellent staff really made our stay. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, and we'd definitely stay here again.

Lovely hotel in great location. Exceptionally friendly staff. Clean rooms. Nice bed. Shower. Fridge, kettle, aircon and balcony. Food not good though, bar lovely with nice drinks at good prices.

Lovely hotel and service, on arrival we found that we had been upgraded to a triple room. Perfect for the low price! The room had everything needed and small sea view. Staff were very helpful and attentive. Hotel is located across the road from the beach, no sun loungers out in may. A few small mini markets in the local area with some souvenir shops and restaurants. Would not recommend anything other than bed and breakfast. Classic hotel continental breakfast with coffee machine and juice which is not always restocked. We had half board and the dinner buffet was not good. Very small selection of 4 hot options which often just included vegetables and one chicken dish. Alongside pre mixed salad and one dessert option. Would recommend going elsewhere for meals besides breakfast. Would recommend hotel to others visiting the area just not the included food options
