Perfect stay in durres

Iris was lovely and helpful! The staff was knowledgeable, courteous, and very fluent in English, as well as many other languages. It was a lavish stay in the heart of scenic durres at an incredibly cheap price. The breakfast was amazing, the rooms clean and sumptuous. I will be back and everyone should come here.

Excellent Staff! Cute Hotel! Great Location!

When I first arrived in Durres, I stayed at the Sun Hotel (on the plazh side of Durres). There, the hotel and surrounding areas were not pleasant, so I assumed Durres was an un-pleasant city. Then, I relocated to Hotel Veliera. My opinion of Durres completely changed. The Hotel Veliera staff were so kind, the daily breakfast was exquisite (and such a cute breakfast area), and the location was PERFECT! I highly recommend!!

Great value for money

Great hotel with super friendly service. Breakfast was great given the price of the room. Staff always willing to help and amazing locations. My few negatives would be that there is no elevator and the room is a bit on small side. As general would come back anytime, great value for money.

Steps away from major sights

The hotel is steps away from all major sights in Durres and the beachfront. Great service by dedicated staff. My only complaint was about the bathroom - no shower curtain which caused a minor flood everytime I showered and no heating in bathtoom either which was an issue in January

A wonderful stay.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay in the newly renovated hotel on the main street through Durres about a 10-minute walk from the ocean. The man at the reception (owner?) offered to move his car in front of the hotel in order for us to have a spot directly in front for unloading our car (street parking only), which we really appreciated. The room was very comfortable, and the breakfast simple but very good. We highly recommend a stay here. We were very well treated there. One note about the location. Google Maps did not help us as it placed the hotel next to the mosque "at the top" of the street when in fact it was right at the beginning "at the bottom" of the street. There is some road construction going on in the area right now so I don´t know how things will end up but if things remain the same, then the hotel is immediately on your right when you turn on to the street of the hotel and not several hundred meters later up near the mosque.
