Pesronal neprimitor
Pros:

A fost in centru

Cons:

Personalul,nu prea primitori,nu te lasă cu nimic in camera,am luat clătite la copil si nu ne.au lăsat,au zis ca ei au reguli pe care nu le prezintă pe booking cand vând,, le prezintă acolo cand semnezi,unde după 12h de condus nu prea iti arde sa citești 3 pagini. Tipa cu ochelari foarte rea si neprimitoare,cumva am deranjat-o ca am venit la ea la hotel,deși era angajată. Ni sa spus ca schimba lenjeria la 2 zile,dar acolo,nu a scris pe booking si a 3 zi am mers la recepție sa întreb de ce nu au schimbat si a zis ca ei in calculator ii apar schimbate,dar in camera nu sunt. Merg pe principiu ca daca ții curățenia,nu le mai schimbă. Micul dejun foarte puțin,aceleași chestii ,câteva chestii.nu aveai ce sa schimbi azi sa difersifici cumva. Niște furnici in una din camere,specific ca am avut 3 camere rezervate. In una din zile am vrut sa mergem la baia din receptie ca sa nu mai urc pana sus si nu ne.au lăsat ca e pt staff,desi cand am ajuns am mers la acea baie. Am înțeles ca sunt foarte rai ca oameni toti,dar cand faci hotel,ar trebui mai multa atenție ,zic eu.

the best hotel in sarande with the best staff
Pros:

the best hotel in our 9 days trip in Albania. the staff was superb. from the reception (ilva and the nice albanian spanish speaker that were so nice and helpfull - how is here name please) to the last of the stuff in the restaurant and breakfast. the hotel restaurant for the evening gives you 15% discount because your accomodation in the hotel and the food is good. we recieved towells to the beach, Beach umbrella, they have also chairs for the beach. the hotel is new with nice and clean rooms. the breakfast was on the terrace with sea view and tasty food. both rooms had an outstanding sea view from the balcony. definitely the best hotel

Cons:

weak stream in the shower. no parking in the hotel. we parked at a safe private parking 6 min walk that was ok

Pros:

Locatie, kamer en service waren buitengewoon, kleinigheid met de kamer maar dat werd adequaat en professioneel opgelost door de medewerkers en management. Zou dit hotel zeker aanbevelen.

Muhteşem otel
Pros:

Herşeyini beğendik, odaları muhteşemdi, banyosu gayet büyüktü, her gün temizlik yapıldı, özellikle Jıro isimli arkadaşım çok güler yüzlüydü ve bizimle çok ilgilendi, ayrıca resepsiyonda bekleyen hanımefendiler de gayet kibar ve ilgililerdi, özellikle akşamları resepsiyonda bekleyen hanımefendinin Türkçe bilmesi de bizi mutlu etti ve çok yardımcı oldu

Cons:

Beğenmediğimiz bir şey yoktu her şey gayet iyiydi

Fantastiskt läge mitt på strandpromenaden
Pros:

Ett litet, men fantastiskt fint hotell mitt på strandpromenaden i Saranda.
Frukosten serverades på takterrassen med utsikt över Saranda. ( Vackert)
Personalen var mycket trevlig.
Ett plus för gratis strand handdukar och beach stolar.

Pros:

Stayed at Hotel Lion GATE Sarande and must say that the hotel and the overall experience exceeds expectations. The hospitality was warm and the staff are very courteous. Bonus points for going out of the way to assist us with the check-in, finding parking spots in Sarande and guidance with local places to visit. We had dinner and breakfast at the hotel. The food is outstanding and delicious.Hotel is beautiful, neat and clean with all the amenities. Rooms were cleaned on daily basis. Highly recommend this place for a stay in Sarande, its right at the Sarande Promenade. Its situated just at 1 min distance from the bus station. Views from the hotel are Stunning.

Special thanks to Iilwa and other girls at reception who assisted us even before we reached Sarande and throughout our stay they were very warm and welcoming. Jiro was so attentive and takes care of all the guests during the Breakfast.

Also the Breakfast spread was amazingly good with really good variety, at their Terrace area with beautiful views

Room had Coffee Machine and all the amenities you need. If we are coming back to Sarande, this is the place we are going to stay again without any second thought.
