Capital Tirana Hotel Bruçi

Centrally located. many restaurants are nearly. Double rooms are very small. Must carry out heavy luggage up some steps before we can use the elevator. Rooms are clean, a bit noisy at night though, for rooms facing the main Road.

Capital Tirana Hotel (or Capital Hotel) is a good hotel, but there are several things that prevent this hotel from being superb. For easy reading, I will organize my review into pro and cons. Pros: The location of the hotel is excellent! A 10 minute (maximum) walk from the main square and all major sightseeing attractions. Tirana is quite small, and the sightseeing attractions seems to be all located very centrally, so I walked everywhere. I recommend also walking to the Grand Park of Tirana (where there is a lake, and a large park scattered with Holocaust, war memorials, cemeteries etc. Sadly, the church in the park was under renovation at the time I was there and the structure was non existent). There are very beautiful views of the lake and the locals go there to read their books or sit at a one of the lakeside restaurants/cafes. It was a nice break from the city! The park was over a 2 km walk from the hotel, but it was a pleasant walk down the main boulevard. Location of the hotel can't be beat for value! Also on location, there are more restaurants, fast food joints, cafes, shops, souvenir shops, convenience stores, small supermarkets and exchange bureaus than you can shake a fist at. Walk about a block from the hotel and you're overwhelmed with options! The Euro is widely accepted in Albania, so there is no real need to change money. They also give change in Euro. I heard that in Albania, they will accept anything so long as it's money! Hah! Probably true. The bed was extremely comfortable, the bedding felt clean and crisp, the mattress was the perfect firmness, and the pillows were wonderful! The bathroom was smartly designed. Large modern toilet, large walk in shower, completely enclosed with glass doors, with your choice of adjustable shower head or overhead rain shower. Water temperature and pressure were both excellent! The glass door didn't completely close in my shower, but this was a minor issue and I had no problems with water going everywhere. Air conditioning worked very well in the room! Very strong, and it kept the room nice and cool. Wifi was password protected, secured, and wifi signal was very strong in my room and also throughout the entire hotel! There was a little mini fridge in the room which was appreciated for keeping my drinks cool during the day. Lighting was good in the room. There was a little bedside lamp on the bedside table as well as lighting above the bed. Ample power sockets throughout the room, including 2 beside the bed to charge your phone. Cons: Toiletries were sparse - only a single bar of soap and a very small bottle of shampoo were provided. Likewise, towels were in short supply. Only one hand towel, one medium sized bath towel and a floor mat were provided. Two of each would have been appreciated! The room was very very small. For me, traveling only with a little backpack, this posed no problem, but if you're traveling with large luggage, be warned. The space in the room is extremely lim
