HÔTEL BUTRINTI

Opened in 2001, the Butrinti Hotel is one of the country's most luxurious hotels (owned by the same Kuwaiti company as Tirana's Sheraton). It offers comfort worthy of the very best. Renovated in 2005 (new refurbishment planned for 2015), the rooms are spacious and comfortable, with TV, minibar and safety deposit box. Bonus: swimming pool, fitness room, tennis courts, pub, nightclub and guarded parking. What's more, the hotel's slightly elevated position means you can see the whole bay, even from the breakfast room on the first floor. Good reputation for respecting reservations.
