The hype
Great location and pool, but the rooms are small and the bathrooms need a deep scrub.
Grand Hotel
$70-120 / đêm
Đặt phòng nếu You prioritize a central pool and free parking over silence and spotless grout.
Tại Sao Mọi Người Yêu Thích Nó
- Prime location near the promenade and ferry terminal
- Rare on-site pool in the city center
- Free private parking (a nightmare to find elsewhere in Sarandë)
Tóm tắt nhanh: A 'Grand' hotel that feels like a rushed flip—great location, but plagued by thin walls and maintenance fumbles.
Được đánh giá bởi @Gaskham: I was blown away by the design here—it feels way more expensive than it is. My room was super minimal and clean, and I spent hours just lounging by the pool. If you want that chic beach club vibe without the crowds, this is the spot.
Khách Đã Ở Đây Nói
Reality check
The 'soundproof' rooms are a myth—you will hear the bass from the club and your neighbor's conversations.
- You have a rental car and need guaranteed parking
- You want to be walkable to the ferry and promenade
- You sleep like the dead or party until 1am anyway
Vệ sinh & Bảo dưỡng
4
- Housekeeping: Daily service is provided, but often superficial. Floors get swept, but deep cleaning is lacking.
- Bathroom hygiene: The biggest failure point. Reports of black mold in sealant, 'disgusting' sinks, and slow drains.
- Maintenance: Feels 'rushed.' Peeling silicone, loose fixtures, and AC units that are finicky.
- Linens & towels: Generally clean but worn. Don't expect plush, new whiteness.
- Odors & scents: Occasional sewage smells from bathroom drains (common in Sarandë plumbing) or mustiness.
