• Damjanović (10/5): - sve, posebno spoljasni ambijent
• Paulo (9/5): - A localização e o enquadramento com o castelo Não tinham cortina que evitassem a entrada de luz logo de manhã cedo
• Ermira (10/5): Comfortable and relaxing. - Beautiful surroundings, excellent and professional service. Food was great.
• Jona (9/5): - It’s a charming and comfortable hotel set inside the castle, with a beautiful garden within its grounds. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly and the food was delicious. Its central location makes it easy to explore the area on foot.
• Εμμανουέλα (10/5): The perfect location to relax - Everything! The room was clean, the stuff kind and helpful. The location is perfect, everything is close.
• Andrea (8/5): -
• Thierry (6/5): - Le parking gratuit et l'aide pour y accéder à l'arrivée. Le cadre historique. L'emplacement idéal. L'équipement de la chambre qui n'est pas à la hauteur du standing d'un tel lieu. Petit déjeuner léger.
• Ben Boxer (9/5): Elbasan's showpiece dining venue inside the castle walls - Close to part venue Car park found by attendant Decent breakfast Quiet at night
• Frédéric (9/5): Übers Ganze betrachtet ein guter Aufenthalt. Anlage sehr schön und zentral gelegen. - Freundlichkeit und Hilfsbereitschaft der Angestellten. Das Fenster meines Zimmers ging auf einen Hinterhof. Dort hat ein Generator (o.ä.) die ganze Nacht in Intervallen Lärm gemacht. Ich schlief nicht gut.
• joel (9/5): - Le cadre dans les remparts Le flegme des serveurs.
• Marion (8/5): I like this hotel because it is very beatiful and the staff is really nice! - No vegan food :-( Would be nice to have soy milk. For vegans it is not so easy in Albania...maybe to serve some fruits as well for breakfast? The heating in winter with air condition is really not function. It is quite cold in the room. I was there 3 times also in summer, summer is ok!
• Marius (10/5): - Super mooie locatie Niks
• Fabio (9/5): - Struttura bellissima in posizione centrale a ridosso delle mura.
• DUSAUTOIS (9/5): -
• Kateryna (10/5): -
• Nikos (10/5): Best hotel/restaurant in the areas - The place is like a fairytale. A hotel within a castle, great service and hospitality
• Yonida (4/5): - Location, room was big and clean. Staff was not that welcoming, bed was very uncomfortable, breakfast plain, we had dinner there and it took them an hour and a half to bring out our food.
• AndrewTolly (10/5): Overall a good stay - The room was clean and the air conditioning worked well to keep it comfortable. Located in the centre of Elbasan, it was within walking distance to everything. Staff were really friendly and the restaurant was great for both dinner and the included breakfast.
• David (7/5): - Great location inside the castle, restaurants nearby were very good. Great location to access pedestrian walkway and local sights. Trying to enter the hotel from the main road was not easy. Had to walk in , park on street with hazards on to get a staff member to direct us to parking. Staff were difficult to find and slow to respond. Room was old fashioned, needed updating badly. Felt like a 1950's grandma's bedroom. Bathroom had nowhere to place anything and shower sprayed everywhere. Staircase to ground level had no barrier at bottom and was a falling hazard. Expensive for what it was.
• Kieran (9/5): -
• Myrha19 (10/5): - Atmosphere, staff, food, garden It is a pitty I cannot give more ****.
• sylvain (8/5): Agréable hôtel au calme - Très joli hôtel dans un château avec un magnifique jardin au calme, emplacement en plein centre d’Elbasan. Personnel pro et sympathique. Le matelas double de la chambre triple était en mauvais état, peu confortable. Les salles de bains mériteraient une légère rénovation.
• gianluca (10/5): - bellissimo hotel in pieno centro, ottimi servizi, parcheggio interno per la moto ( gratis), ottimo ristorante, Staff molto disponibile.
• Tsekani (10/5): Εξαιρετική!! - Η τοποθεσία ήταν καταπληκτική! Το δωμάτιο πεντακάθαρο και το προσωπικό άκρως εξυπηρετικό και φιλικό! Όλα ήταν άψογα
• Veronica (10/5): Incantevole - Bellissimo, le Camere pulite, staff gentile, cibo tradizionale buonissimo Un luogo magico
• Hennie (9/5): Historic stay within the old walls - Big room, hotel is the centre of Elbasan. Availability of tourist map
• Vanessa (9/5): Beautiful hotel - It is a beautiful place within the castle walls. Good base if you go for hikes nearby. Music is always on and limited options for breakfast
• Sebastian (9/5): Wonderful place to stay. Strongly recommended. - This is a great hotel, in a renovated and nicely decorated building in a wonderful park in the old castle, with old-style furniture. Very helpful staff. A pleasure to stay there. Would always choose it a gain. Please provide information how to reach the hotel by car when you confirm bookings. Some small practical things in the bathroom could be improved (where to put stuff in the shower?). Please provide extension cables, the number of electric plugs is not adequate for the equipment of today's travellers.
• Simon (10/5): Beautiful setting, excellent hotel and good value for money. - Phenomenal. Very clean, excellent food. Attentive staff. Stunning stting. Very good value for money. No parking on site. Street parking difficult as city cnetre location. But otherwise full marks.
• Gershon (8/5): Great location. Big rooms too many stairs - Other than the stairs getting in and out the hotel is lovely. Very clean, welcoming. The room was large and comfortable but there’s no room to hang clothes. The shower head was broken too. But other than that it was very good
• Kira (9/5): Very good - So comfortable and very cute hotel. It was right in the castle so it was so easy to get around once there. We got locked out of the place a little after midnight , there is a number on the back gate to call but we weren’t aware this was going to be a problem, so it would have been nice to know beforehand.
• Lance (10/5): Beautiful hotel and grounds with a good restaurant and nice clean room. I would stay here again! - Beautiful property in the castle. Delicious dinner and breakfast and great value for the money. We have no negatives
• Luis (10/5): We loved staying and look forward to returning to this same hotel next time we visit Elbasan. - What a beautiful gem.
• Jiemin (9/5): Superb -
• Vangjel (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rylie (10/5): Great place to stay in the wonderful city of Elbasan. - The breakfast was really good. I liked the appearance of the hotel. Feels like part of the castle. The rooms and facilities are very nice. The balcony was great. The location is very central. Overall, great experience. The price is a bit high.
• Meliha (9/5): A lovely and unique experience - Location was great and it was nice to stay in the old castle - the staff was nice and friendly - breakfast was good + the gardens were lovely to sit and have coffee in The beds are also historical and a little soft but thats personal preference
• Jobanputra (10/5): Exceptional -
• Javier (10/5): Exceptional - The site is absolutely well located. It is within the castle walls and there is no more pleasant environment to be in in the entire city. The staff's attention was very good, and the breakfast was very very good. Comfortable beds and a feeling of well-being in that place when you wake up in this place. 100% recommended.
• Thomas (8/5): I enjoyed my stay for my friends wedding because it was comfortable and luxurious. - I liked the space and villa for the stay during my friends wedding. I enjoyed breakfast and the amenities. There was no room cleanings or service and a simple garbage bag or place to get fresh towels would help out. I also had one of the rooms without an above shower made cleaning myself difficult in the tub.
• Pål (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tamas (10/5): Exceptional -
• Inesa (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent everything Excellent everything
• Rosa (10/5): Beautiful place - Hotel was beautiful and very clean. Good location inside The castle. Safe parkingarea. And very helpful boys working at The hotel. Everything was good, If one thing have to say, fridge would Be nice in The room

• Nora (10/5): Exceptional -
• Friso (8/5): Very good -
• Ferndxb (10/5): Great stay at an authentic keep - the staff were most polite and helpful. food was super. located in a castle - wow
• I (9/5): Lovely hotel in gorgeous grounds. - Loved the beautiful grounds and garden and the lovely breakfasts served up by an excellent waiter named Gabriel. He was a credit to the company. The restaurant had a wide range of choices and was very busy. Our room was lovely and comfortable and cleaned daily and the location is ideal for exploring Elbasan. The extractor fan funnel from the kitchen was right outside our balcony and extremely noisy and smelly. Maybe room 103 is a short straw pick for booking.com. ! The air conditioning unit struggled in the intense heat and it was hard to sleep.
• Enis (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alma (10/5): Exceptional - Every thing
• Jobanputra (10/5): magnificent and enchanting - the most scenic and enchanting hotel in Albania - a must visit - it is nestled in the castle grounds with magnificent manicured grounds.
• Joe (10/5): Exceptional - The location was great. Very easy to find. Plenty of parking if you have a car. The staff seemed pretty friendly. The AC worked well and the food was pretty good. Loved the garden. The stairway didn't have rails which could be an issue if you are traveling with children. If you return late at night (after 10pm) you'll need to go to the back gate and call the number of the guard to be let in
• Houda (10/5): Exceptional -
• Romke (8/5): Very good - Most beautifull garden, so quiet and easy in the middle of the city Quite dated rooms
• Ksa1212 (3/5): Poor -
• Dan (10/5): Exceptional - Great location! When we requested an iron to press some dress shirts, they offered to do it for us at no cost. The beds were all very very squeaky. Every time you moved they would make noise.
• Abdullah (9/5): Superb -
• Antonela (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kosta (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ledio (10/5): Exceptional -
• Uruci (9/5): pleasant time, very cool to be in a castle and it was very much an experioence. - the breakfast was very good. It was all fresh and had some good variety even for traveling during the off season. really impressive setting and clean hotel grounds. we had a jacuzzi tub in the bathroom... rather have had a shower is all. The hotel parking lot is a little difficult to find using google map. Once you are there you are good to go.
• Dejan (10/5): Exceptional - Ambient, staff, food, people Short stay 😭
• Nihada (9/5): Superb -
• Hajrullah (9/5): Superb -
• Ermira (10/5): Comfortable and peaceful tradicional place with beautiful gardens. - Beautiful gardens and relaxing areas. Fantastic choice of songs and melodies, which make the environment very pleasant. The traditional parts of it make the resort very appealing and unique.
• Alex (10/5): Exceptional -
• Damien (10/5): Unique and wonderful place in a great location. - Fantastic location with great views. The breakfast was lovely and an added bonus. A shower curtain would be very useful but this didn’t take away from the enjoyment.
• Nicholas (8/5): unique, memorable property - unique property in castle grounds, excellent bed. wifi great. good view from balcony mould on bathroom ceiling, jacquzzi bath was just a bath. lot of piped music in grounds and restaurant. noise from restaurant fans on balcony
• Aurel (9/5): Superb - Location was nice, building was beautiful Felt a bit cold in the room even with AC
• Bejtula (8/5): Very good -
• Lehat (10/5): Exceptional - Stuff are very friendly. Thanks to all!
• Fatmir (8/5): Great place to stay if you visit Elbasan - Location inside medieval castle walls. Lovely spacious room, clean and friendly staff. Breakfast had nice variety of items, but the hot food like eggs need to be prepared fresh or kept warm.
• Alma (7/5): Good - The room would be more warmly
• Nathan (8/5): Very good - Location was great Shower
• Abel (8/5): Like sleeping in a castle - The walls around the hotel give a castle feel to it that is very pleasant, complete with beautiful gardens and a restaurant. The room is ok, the bed is fine but the shower is not good. Breakfast is tasty once you locate staff to provide it for you. Maybe it is a low season thing, but there was no one around to check us out either.
• Peter (9/5): Superb -
• Adrian (7/5): Royal Palace in Albania - Upon setting foot in Scampi in Elbasan, one is not only taken aback by the splendor of the surroundings but also by the vision and dedication of its owner. The meticulous attention to detail, evident in every nook and cranny, speaks volumes about his passion and commitment to excellence. It’s not just a place; it’s a manifestation of a dream. In a fortuitous turn of events, I had the privilege of interacting with the owner, and it became abundantly clear that he is the heart and soul of Scampi. A true gentleman in every sense, he embodied the very essence of hospitality, ensuring that my concerns were addressed promptly and personally. His demeanor, professionalism, and evident love for his establishment are truly commendable. The presence of such an involved and passionate owner elevates the experience at Scampi, making it more than just a visit. It’s a journey into a world crafted with love and dedication. While the staff could use a bit more alignment with his vision, the owner’s touch is unmistakable in the ambiance and aura of the place. To sum it up, Scampi in Elbasan stands as a testament to its owner’s vision and unwavering dedication. His commitment to excellence shines through, and for anyone visiting Elbasan, it’s a journey worth undertaking. Booking.com has an incorrect address for the hotel, which caused me significant issues. I recommend using Google Maps over Apple Maps on the iPhone to avoid such problems. The hotel itself is great; the address issue on Booking.com needs to be addressed.
• Claudia (7/5): Good - Very nice hotel inside the castle walls with beautifull and well kept gardens. Clean and conffortable room. Good wifi connection. Can be payed with credit card. Has inside parking lot. They let me work on the garden area after i checked out for a couple of hours. The room had a balcony to the garden that is also a bar/restaurant so the music could be heard in the room until arround 11PM. In the morning the gardeners bellow the window started trimming the bushes with loud power tools quite early. The breakfast table was not refilled so i did not get eggs or barelly cheese.
• Samantha (9/5): Superb - I have to admit, we didn't expect much as we arrived as this was one of the cheaper hotels of our stay and we booked it as we were staying for a half marathon the next day. We were so pleasantly surprised, the location was absolutely perfect and literally a 5 minute walk to the centre. They had a resturaunt onside and it was a little courtyard with absolutely gorgeous architecture. Unfortunately we didn't stay for breakfast as we had to get to our race but the staff let us leave our bags until after the race. We had dinner in the resturaunt and the meat was absolutely delicious. The facilities were good, we had a nice balcony a really comfy big bed and a really large bath. I would 100% recommend this hotel to anyone and I would also recommend Elbassan as it had alot of character.
• Jeffrey (10/5): Exceptional - Great atmosphere inside the amazing walls and gardens. Had a lovely meal in very relaxing surroundings with great friendly staff.
• Diana (10/5): Exceptional - We liked the vibe outside (in the yard) and how nice all the lighting was in evening. It's really an unique place to stay in. We tried the different traditional specialities at the dinner and it was so delicious, recommend to visit their own restaurant. The host was super friendly and helpful.
• Catherine (7/5): Very reasonable price for location and setting, and had the facilities you’d expect. - Extensive, beautiful garden setting (though we were less keen on the background music that played constantly). Beds v creaky and not that comfortable.
• Andrew (10/5): Marvellous - Wonderful location in castle. Amazingly helpful manager.
• Mark (8/5): Oasis in the city - Beautiful building and grounds within the old fortress walls. Walk to everything. Choice of restaurants on site, nice breakfast. Off-street parking.
• Coline (6/5): Beautiful but à little disappointing - I like the place! This is really beautiful and calm. The people from the hôtel.. really not concerned about you. I came, nobody help me with my luggage, nobody help me to find the reception. If you don’t ask.. they don’t give you the information that you need : wifi, breakfast, taxi, … They do the work but they don’t care about you.
• Lusjana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sonila (5/5): Passable -
• Wpq (8/5): Very good -
• Thanas (10/5): Exceptional -
• Amalia (3/5): Not clean!!!!!! - Good location and nice bar. The restaurant food is not good as well as the hotel. I don't recommend!!!! They gave us our room , that wasn't cleaned from the previous stay. The toilet was dirty and there were empty shower gel bottles in the shower, the floor was full of breadcrumbs as well as the night tables. I requested the room to be cleaned as it wasn't. When I went back to check, the floor was the same , the shower gel bottles still there. No difference. I had to contact the cleaning service myself and clean with them. Unbelievable !!!!
• Alexandra (10/5): Money worthy - I loved the location and the rooms. They were very clean. Staff very friendly. The breakfast was very limited barely any food.
• Sokrat (10/5): Exceptional -
• Valmir (5/5): Passable -
• Beste (9/5): 5 stars out of 5! Great - Hotel itself is really nice,historical.hotel centered at the city center. Staff was helpful and very good at communication.
