"Excellent hotel. Great views. Restaurant in hotel was good for dinner and breakfast. One night was perfect to walk the ruins and the town so a nice rest spot"
"The room was great as we were upgraded to a sea view room from a standard room so big thanks to the staff for that! Beautiful location too and great to have had a private beach - don’t forget your sea shoes if you struggle with pebbly beaches!
The food and cleanliness of room could have been better. I found that during the stay the floors weren’t cleaned so could feel the dust on my feet quite a bit."
"The hotel had very good facilities, new, clean and spacious, breakfast is served in a nearby cafeteria with which they have an agreement, Breakfast is good although service in the cafeteria is extremely slow. The hotel staff (reception) is very friendly."
"I had a very disappointing experience with this property. Although I didn’t check in, I ultimately had to cancel my stay due to multiple issues — yet I was still charged, and my request for a refund was denied despite valid concerns.
To begin with, the property did not match the photos presented on the website. The actual condition was far below expectations. The location was also inaccurately listed, which led to significant delays. The road leading to the property was in poor condition, and...

"The staff at the front desk I believe her name is Sara (red head) is amazing! She is very helpful and attentive and wears a smile all day. The hotel is on the 4th floor but there is an elevator from the parking lot however you do go down into a dark basement to work your way up. The parking attendants were so kind, helpful, friendly and honestly just wonderful. He helped us take our bags up. There is also a different entrance but not sure how to get there we tried to take the stairs down the back way and got completely lost we had to come back up so stick to the elevator. Its a strange set up. The view from the open rooftop is wonderful overlooking the pedestrian walk and the Mosque. When you enter it will feel hot, but that is because the terrace is completely open but the rooms have AC. The room was enough for my son and I. I have to say I stayed at a beautiful Marriott in Tirana but the pillows at Hotel Chicago were the BEST!!!! I like how firm the bed is too. The room was spacious and even had a jacuzzi that we did not use, but amazing that they fit a jacuzzi in there. For a one night stay it worked out just fine. I would stay here again. The breakfast was decent, but I enjoyed the egg whites and sausage more. The COFFEE omg the Cappuccino was SO DAMN Good, I can't stop thinking about it. Overall, great hotel in Shkroder, great location. What a beautiful city if you can stay longer than one night I would!"
"Stayed here one night to catch up with the cruise ship to port the next day. This hotel is very modern and our waiter at the restaurant there said the hotel is 7 months old. Our room came with breakfast included. The downstairs restaurant is very affordable and served great food. Would definitely recommend when staying in Bar Montenegro."

"Beautiful resort, visited early August during high season and it never felt crowded. Resort had plenty of sun chairs and we never had an issue to find four for our family no matter the time of day. Breakfast buffet was excellent and had lots of choices. Really enjoyed the restaurant by the adult pool (forgot the name), spectacular spot to watch the sunset. Staff were very friendly and prepared lunch bags for us the day of departure which was so sweet!
Was very pleased to see that the “zoo” mentioned in previous reviews was empty. We walked around the whole resort and some areas could use attention, like the beach volleyball court. Tried the outdoor gym one morning, although the most amazing view, was way too hot for me to workout since outdoors and no fans. Overall an amazing stay!"
"Great experience all around though the time spent at checking knowing we were the only client at the time was super long. But a part from that just perfect."
"Nous avons passé un excellent séjour ! La villa offre une vue magnifique, tout était très propre et bien entretenu. L’hôte était également très facilement joignable et disponible en cas de besoin. Nous avons passé un super moment et recommandons vivement cette villa !"
