Astonishing breakfast - with such a wide variety of ingredients - but what impressed me most was the cleaning lady. I stupidly left my Apple AirPods in the room (and wouldn’t have noticed for hours - and I was leaving that day). She brought them straight to me as I was settling the bill. Then later I realised I (even more stupidly) left my treasured books on the window sill behind the curtain. I returned two hours later to find her with my books, waiting for me to return. Excellent, honest woman. (I gave her a very good tip).

The breakfast was AMAZING! We personally are not a fan of buffet breakfasts and was very glad that they provide you with an individual breakfast. It is present very well. It was all delicious. The owner served the breakfast and gave us a description of each of the items, with most of it being homemade and/or locally sourced. The quality of the breakfast, including the drinks were top notch. The staff we met (owner and his son) were friendly, welcoming and relaxed. The bedroom was comfortable with a cozy feel, it was extremely clean and well presented. We were able to leave our luggage in reception whilst we went out for the day which was really helpful. The WiFi was reliable. The hotel is right by the centre yet still quiet for a good nights sleep. I would definitely recommend this hotel and if we return to Tirana we will stay here again.

👍: •very good location- city centre •amazing breakfast ( organic, fresh, very special for a hotel) , maybe the best i’ve eaten •the room was very clean, a little bit oldish but i knew from the photos 👎🏻 •it was a bit cold untill i found how the climate works • it was no one at the reception when we arrive, we have to look after someone in the hotel for about 10-15 minutes untill we found a man ( I didn’t think it was okay that no one was waiting for us at the reception; I searched the entire hotel for someone until I found someone. It was a man who merely told us where the reception was in a vague way without making it clear, and he didn’t come to help us.) • hard to pay for the service; every day we tried to pay, but they said “tomorrow” every day. We succes to pay in the last day… it was a bit hard, bacause it was a stress this fact ( we tried to pay by card, but the POS wasn’t working; I paid in euros, and they weren’t going to give me change, so they gave me LEK at a very poor exchange rate)

Excellent central location, and surprisingly quiet, with free parking and comfortable bed. A very tasty and exquisitely presented breakfast by a gentleman who introduced himself as our waiter and explained that he and his wife prepared everything fresh. Turned out this modest, friendly man was the owner! Don’t be put off by some comments about lack of manned reception. You might have to climb a few stairs to the restaurant at the top to find someone but this is a family run place not some corporate sterile affair - surely part of travelling! Nb: the side entrance - LHS as you enter the carpark, has two flights of stairs up to the door- this is to the restaurant. The entrance to hotel is on the front of the building off the street. He sent us on our way with our first raki at 9am!!A wonderful start to our Albanian adventure.

From the moment I arrived at Hotel Boutique Restaurant Gloria, I was truly impressed. Nestled in the heart of Tirana, this charming hotel offers a perfect blend of modern comfort and authentic Albanian hospitality. The staff were incredibly warm, welcoming, and always ready to go the extra mile to ensure my stay was perfect. The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable—exactly what you’d expect from a top-tier boutique hotel. I especially loved the attention to detail in the design, which gave the space both character and elegance. The bed was super cozy, and the quiet atmosphere guaranteed a great night’s sleep. The real highlight, though, was the restaurant. The food was absolutely outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and artistically presented. Every dish I tried felt like a true celebration of Albanian cuisine, with a modern twist. The breakfast was also amazing, with plenty of delicious options made with high-quality, local ingredients. Location-wise, it’s perfect—just a short walk to the city center, museums, cafes, and cultural landmarks

We stayed here for 4 nights & were treated like royalty. The hotel is in an excellent location, a few minutes walk to the square & castle. The staff were so friendly & accommodating & couldn’t do enough for us. The room was spotless & had a safe, fridge etc. the bed was very comfortable. The shower was good with lots of hot water & clean towels slippers, toiletries & a hairdryer. We had breakfast included & it was delicious & so much of it. The food was made fresh every morning & included eggs, fresh fruit, juice & pastries/cakes & is served to your table. We also ate dinner here as the food at breakfast was so good, we were not disappointed it was excellent. If you are looking for somewhere to stay in Tirana don’t hesitate to book this hotel. We will definitely stay here again when visiting Tirana.

I had a truly great experience staying at Hotel Boutique Restaurant Gloria. From the moment I arrived, everything felt smooth and welcoming. The hotel is beautifully designed, with a cozy yet elegant atmosphere that makes it easy to relax.

They were kind, professional, and always ready to help with anything I needed, whether it was local recommendations or small requests during my stay. Their attention and hospitality really made a difference. The location is also convenient — close to everything, but still peaceful. And having a high-quality restaurant right downstairs was a huge plus. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better stay. I highly recommend Hotel Boutique Restaurant Gloria to anyone looking for comfort, service, and a truly pleasant experience.

Gloria Boutique Hotel i and restaurant in the center of Tirana, Albania,is a great hotel. The room is average in size, clean, it was quiet at night despite the noise of the city. A well-equipped shower, and the service is excellent. View from the restaurant towards the city. The breakfast was really delicious and excellent, and everything was from the wonderful hands of Goni. Goni is a good man, he kindly helped us feel that we were on a pleasant and enjoyable vacation. A problem with the water supply was dealt with immediately and quickly, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Best Hotel Experience Ever—A Stay to Remember! I can’t recommend this hotel enough! The location is perfect—just a short walk from the main square and the bus station, making it super convenient. The rooms are spacious with incredibly comfortable beds, and even the towels smelt fresh and clean. The water pressure in the shower was excellent, and the hotel went the extra mile by providing water bottles infused with lemon, mint, and ginger daily—such a thoughtful touch! The food was outstanding. Breakfast was a set menu, but every day there was something unique to enjoy. Having travelled to over 50 countries, I can confidently say this hotel served the most delicious breakfasts I’ve ever had. The hotel staff were warm, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. Cleanliness was top-notch throughout my stay. If you're looking for comfort, convenience, and an unforgettable experience, this is the place to be!
