Palaces in Fier County

"My stay at Sol Tropikal was overall good, but there are a few things that could definitely be improved. The food was nice and tasty, especially the beef, pasta and panna cotta. I enjoyed most of the meals, although sometimes the food was more warm than hot. It would be better if the chefs could make sure the food stays hot enough during serving. The rooms were neat, tidy and comfortable. Housekeeping did a good job keeping everything clean throughout my stay, and the balcony area was nice to relax on. One thing I struggled with was communication with some of the staff because many of them were not able to speak English well, so I didn’t really find the staff very engaging. I was also disappointed with the water situation. I had two bottles in my room when I arrived, but nobody explained that I was supposed to keep and refill them. I assumed fresh bottles would be provided. When I asked reception for another bottle of water, I was told guests only get two bottles and that I should buy water from the lobby shop instead. Considering I paid for all inclusive, I honestly felt disappointed that they couldn’t provide one extra bottle, especially since I would have reused it for refills afterwards. Having stayed at another Melia hotel before, I personally didn’t feel this one matched the same standard. Overall the stay was okay and I would rate it 7/10."

"Very nice place, the rooms are large, clean and thé breakfast is perfect!"

"Lovely hotel, enjoyed my stay will definitely be coming back "

"This hotel is on a quieter location in golem, although this means it’s also very close to the motorway. My room faced the motorway and if I had my balcony door open it was loud however once the door was closed the noise disappeared. The room was extremely comfortable and did look like the photos on Expedia. The hotel also had a small pool and around 5 sun loungers. The pool and sun loungers were in the shade for long periods of the day but between midday and 3pm the pool got the sun (I stayed in early May). There is a buffet breakfast included in the room rate which was nice, the options are limited. Don’t expect to find English breakfast items it’s lots of salads and fruit, with coffee and juices offered. The beach is a few streets away from the holiday. Very convenient "

"The staff was really nice."

"Advertised as a 4 star hotel, but this rating feels very generous. Unless your standards are fairly low, it’s difficult to consider this a true 4-star experience. The hotel is located around a 10-minute walk from the start of the old town and close to the pedestrian street, which is convenient but somewhat away from the best part of Breast. The building itself is certainly impressive from the outside, with large faux Greco-Roman columns and grand architecture with massive dome at the top . It was originally built in 2009 with the intention of becoming a university, which perhaps explains the unusual design. Guests enter via a red-carpeted staircase leading up to reception. Unfortunately, the welcome was underwhelming, as the receptionist was not particularly friendly or welcoming. The room rate only included parking, accommodation, and breakfast — notably, there was no included access to the spa or pool. In fact, both were closed during our stay. We were told the spa would cost an additional €40 unless booking a treatment, while pool access was €10 per person. The interior corridors on the first floor felt tired and dusty, with a lingering smell throughout. Even after check-in time, there was visible housekeeping activity, with bedding and supplies left outside rooms while cleaners continued working. We were upgraded to Room 110, described as a suite, although it was really just a larger room with a seating area and table. The room did include a coffee machine. The king-"

"Excellent stay at the hotel. Within walking distance to restaurants and the beach. Hotel was very clean. Restaurant was excellent. I would highly recommend this hotel."

"Everything’s was good. Friendly stuff and tasty breakfast(you just need to bring a little time) but the view was beautiful so we enjoyed the relaxed start into the day."

"My stay was really good. The staffs were very friendly, helpful and professional which I think is a common thing in Albania. The Sunna and steam room were really good, I had a great time using the gym as well. The breakfast was good but sometimes left cold. In general, its was a good stay. I’ll definitely come back again."
