Pros:

Very pleasant and clean hotel and staff were very helpful. Ideal location right in the centre of Skopje.

Cons:

The main problem was the shower. It did not drain and the floor became very wet. We had to use towels each day to mop it up.

Pros:

Top Lage am Rande des alten Bazars. Die Dachterrasse mit dem Blick über Skopje ist sensationell. Man kann alle wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeiten zu Fuß erreichen und das eigene Auto entspannt am Hotel lassen.
Sehr freundlicher und entspannter Empfang. Tolles Frühstück in der oberen Etage, sodass man gerne etwas länger sitzen bleiben möchte. Wir werden auf jeden Fall bei unserem nächsten Aufenthalt wieder dieses Hotel wählen.

Gutes Hotel in Furchtbarer Lage
Pros:

Pro: Schönes Hotel mit Dachterrasse und Ausblick über die gesamte Stadt. Zimmer sehr geräumig, Personal super nett, Lage direkt an der Altstadt mit ihrem Basar

Cons:

Die Lage im muslimischen Viertel hat zur Folge dass man morgens um 5 von den Muezzin der 8 Moscheen im Umkreis geweckt wird. Somit ist Schlaf ab 5Uhr quasi unmöglich. Überall stehen im Hotel Raumduft-Geräte die ganz schön widerlich sein können. Das Frühstück ist sehr spartanisch und bietet wenig Auswahl

Pros:

A lovely hotel with a wonderful bar on the seventh floor (on the rooftop). There is also a restaurant there, where breakfast is served. The staff were very friendly and calm. Our room for three people was very spacious and offered a good view. It was close to the city center, and the bazaar was even closer. The parking area was small and narrow... but we managed to get a spot.

Cons:

Première visite de la ville de Skopje et de ses proches environs
Pros:

L'hôtel est un bâtiment d'architecture moderne, stylé, de grande capacité. Notre chambre était très spacieuse, meublée avec goût et très agréable pour y séjourner; nous aimions bien rentrer à l'hôtel en fin de visite. Le personnel est aux petits soins pour les clients et les barmen font de très bons cocktails

Cons:

Rien; certains alentours de l'hôtel laissaient un peu à désirer mais cela n'affectait en rien nos déplacements et surtout cela n'avait rien à voir avec l'hôtel Arka lui-même
