We came originally for a friend’s wedding in Tirana, but decided to do a little vacation for ourselves, since we came to Albania. The drive was spectacular, Albania and the roads scenery are absolutely gorgeous. However since it’s our first time in Albania we noticed that a lot of buildings were unfinished throughout the country. We were pleasantly surprised that Sarande Palace was an exception, the building is situated towards the end of the boulevard which gives the most beautiful sunset view and quietness, as the busy section of Sarande is very noisy. Ory - the receptionist went above and beyond to make sure our stay was pleasant and perfect. She seriously runs the place and cares for the service they provide to guests. Ory gave us tips and recommendations for pretty much anything we asked, she even offered laundry and dry cleaning services if needed. The pool was clean and big, they have plenty of beds and cabanas available for guests in the beach area. The restaurant and the bars provided very good food and cocktails. The service was on a high level and the prices were competitive. The view from room balcony was spectacular. The rooms were clean, updated and thoughtfully furnished. If you are going to Sarande book this hotel, it’s worth every penny and you would have an amazing time and beautiful memories. Five stars hands down. Thank you, Ory and Sarande Palace team.

They had some turtles on the property. Which was absolutely adorable.

Elena was super helpful and really helped make our trip! Awesome staff throughout and well maintained. The area was perfect - quiet at night, and a close walk to the promenade / nightlife (which was much noisier for hotels - I’d recommend staying here and walking)

Caveat Emptor: pix & description misleading

Chose it based on description & pix. At best half-truths. Pool was green w/trash floating in it. Asked if it'd be cleaned: told it wasn't yet open. No loungers by pool. Pool bar was set up but told not open. Ad photo shows wide beach & direct sea access.THAT beach is a different hotel's beach: warned by reception not to access it. Saranda Palace has NO beach.Do have an elevated platform with sand & dozen wooden loungers. For 2 days no cushions, no shades. Access to that area from pool deck was past a stand being built, nails & wood pieces strewn about. Access to the sea itself? Via a rusty ladder or crumbling cement steps onto a dirty tiny rocky strip not big enough to lay down on. Sign in WC says "towels not to leave room" but 3 calls to reception? No answer so no idea where pool towels were when we wanted to lie out. Toiletries & towels on the bed but only a bottom sheet. Had to find & put on the top sheet & comforter. First time ever I had to make a hotel bed on arrival! Room is stylish (if small) but our "side bay view" was of elevator shaft & neighboring hotel: peek of bay. Asked for a view: told none avail (clearly untrue as there were v few guests. Breakfast not until 8 am. 20 people on a tour asking for coffee: staff went to market to buy beans. Someone asked for a cappuccino: staffer went to buy milk. An Italian woman commented: "Didn't they know they were going to have guests?" Wait staff embarrassed & apologetic. Find a better run hotel, honest management.

Great room and bathroom size. Excellent view from beach front. Breakfast was good with a great variety but seem like you had to eat early as hotel only put out so much. Pool area and swim area had plenty of room and chairs for everyone. There is a cafe down stairs if drinks or coffee is wanted by the beach.

Beautiful location, directly on the sea. We booked a sea view room and had wonderful views for seven nights watching cruise ships on the horizon and yachts coming in to the new harbor area. Breakfast buffet was good and had many selections, however there is no restaurant on-site for lunch and dinner, as listed incorrectly on Expedia. There are many dining options nearby. On-site bar is very convenient (cash-only) and has great views too. You can relax and sunbathe at the pool (many lounge chairs are available) or out on the rocky outcropping that juts out directly on the Ionian sea. The room itself is very modern and clean, however the safe is too small and can be picked up and taken away. Overall a great experience at this hotel.

Nice location, nice pool, needs some work though

The hotel comes with a nice, clean pool (which was never crowded) and a beautiful view towards Corfu. Breakfast is simple but nice and the staff were all friendly. Lots of lunch and dinner options nearby (there is no food except for breakfast at the hotel) We found the beds to be uncomfortable and in the 2 bedroom suites, only one of the rooms has A/C. Some rooms have renovated bathrooms but if you are unlucky like us, the old bathrooms are very run down, nowhere to hang towels and no shower curtains so water goes everywhere. It's okay for a few days in Sarande for a fsmily with kids.

Friendly staff good location need more renovation from inside rooms, we were not allowed to eat in rooms, we had to pay for our capaccino, tea was cold eggs were cold, the breakfast was beyond average. Same items everyday. The staff made our stay pleasant other than that it was very annoying that we had to have cold food and coffee and tea.

Wonderful Hotel

The Sarande Palace is a great hotel. We stayed in two rooms (one with a side sea view and the other a suite with a full sea view. The view is so splendid I would totally recommend spending a little more for a sea view room. The facilities at the hotel are good. The pool is large and deep. There is a child’s pool as well. There is also access to a private beach and plenty of loungers. But the very best part of the hotel is the staff. They are wonderful. Simply wonderful. The whole hotel is kept spotlessly clean. The only slight downside is that the hotel is 10/15 mins walk from the town centre and the port. But there are some great bars and restaurants near the hotel
