Hostel Hostel Durres

Sheshi Liria, 2000 Durrës, Albania –

*7.9* Durres Amphiteatre: only 3 minutes away! (700 feet by foot)

Lock in a great price for Hostel Durres – rated 8.8 by recent guests!

to get started.

I felt like I was at home. The common spaces are great for hanging out. Breakfast is nice and filling. The kitchen is spacious and fully equipped. The owner is very nice and helpful. I had a 2:45am flight leaving Durres and he helped me arrange a taxi to get to the airport making sure I arrived well.

Diana, Albania

The volunteering staff are amazing. Great atmosphere and they are very welcoming and helpful.

Zehavit, Israel

Friendly staff/volunteers Good breakfast and kitchen Nice garden

Christian, Germany

The hostel has a very central position, it is in a lovely place. The bar is also very nice. The staff are a refreshment in a town where very few speak English.

Dunja, Serbia

1. Staff: Incredible staff. They are kind, helpful, and so much fun! We celebrated my birthday and shared lots of time together! The volunteers here are great fun! 2. Location: Near everything! 3. Building: The roof terrace is great and one of my favourite places in this hostel. I ate all my breakfast there! The hostel is connected to a cute bar / cafe, which is nice! To get into the hostel, you need to pass a locked gate. This gives a feeling of security. 4. Rooms: Quiet rooms. :) I liked the quotes on the walls, names of the rooms, and decor of the hostel and garden. 5. Wifi works! 6. Good vibes.

Veera, Indonesia

Well it was more than i expected, fluffy bed, people from all around the world, happy and calm, exactly how every hostel should be. Thanks keep it up guys!

Roland, Albania

Location, price and staff are excellent. Durres is a popular tourist destination and you don't feel like you are in the center of town. It's a small oasis of its own.

Robin, United States of America

Staff was lovely! I panicked when I lost my wallet but they helped me look and we found it. They told me what there was to do and they were like a little family of volunteers who all spoke fluent English---something to be appreciated in Albania.. I don't know how long they will be there though!

Bria, United States of America

More than perfect location, huge garden, own bar, great sound track. Fully equipped kitchen.

An Inside Look at Hostel Durres

The building is located on the main square, and is a vila built in the 1930s. It has functioned as a house, a showroom for Ford cars and as offices for the municipality and even for Mormons community. After we have renovated this abandoned building in 2014 it now functions as a great and vibrant place for travelers to meet each other and relax in the city of Durres. The rooms are different in size, and with their high ceilings give a spacious effect. Downstairs we have a large common area with an open kitchen where we cook for ourselves and our guests, who ever wants to join for dinner.

The bed wasn't too clean. Had bed bugs overnight. Breakfast was prepared a bit later and could be improved. Rooftop terrace was great but could be better with lights and better seats.
Spacious common area and kitchen. Lots of places to hang out outside the bedroom. Great location as it is near the city centre. Multiple showers and toilets.

The location is a bit noisy (my choice) and the pillow could have been better.
Nice atmosphere, friendly staff, welcoming feeling from the beginning to the end. I enjoyed the stay a lot. The next door bar is a huge plus:) enough bathrooms.
