The hotel is located in the heart of the Albanian capital. Strongly influenced by the Italian design of its 1930s building, the hotel offers a luxurious setting in a cosy atmosphere. The hotel is just 5 minutes' walk from the centre of the city and the bus station is some 200 m away. Tirana International Airport Nënë Tereza is situated at a distance of approximately 25 km. The establishment started its life as a family-run restaurant that became famous for its cooking and hospitality, and now is a clean and comfortable hotel, offering its guests a central location and good service. This fine-looking boutique hotel in an ornate 1930s villa has a lovely large garden out back where guests can enjoy breakfast under a canopy of wisteria, while canaries flutter in cages. The garden is the real treat of the place; surprisingly big for the heart of the city, there is enough space for outdoor dining as well as a kid's playground, car park and an old well.
