- GUILLERMO (10/5): Excelente - Cerca del centro , a metros de la “estación de buses” , muy buena onda el personal, muy limpio, agua caliente y calefacción (invierno), lo único que lamento es que por ser invierno no hacen los tours, era el único huésped 😄. Recomiendo 100%
- marie-odile (8/5): Très bon séjour - Hostel dans rue calme, central, bien aménagé, cuisine équipée, pièce commune confortable, bénévoles sympas, bon petit déjeuner Proximité du dortoir avec accueil et sanitaires peut être un peu bruyant
- Florian (9/5): -
- Soleil (8/5): Lovely hostel, clean & owner rob is super cool & informative :) - super friendly & helpful staff, good location & clean showers were cold
- Lance (4/5): There are better options - Very clean extremely friendly staff Basically a room down an alley with two bunkbeds. Sleeps 4, lock on the inside with key. Cannot lock the door unless everybody is in, so vulnerable.
Would not recommend for lone female traveller in my view.
No checking in details taken. Paid in cash.
- Alex (10/5): Nice choice for travellers! - For staying cheap in Shkoder it's a very nice choice. I liked atmosphere of people worldwide and excellent job of a helpful staff. Thanks guys! 🩵 You should repair and keep well your bicycles that you give for a rental. Or just stop renting them, really...
- Mathilde (10/5): - L’emplacement est idéal, à 2min du centre / arrêts de bus
Les hôtes nous accueillent avec le sourire !
- Analia (8/5): - El jardin, la cocina, todo estaba impecable de limpio. Las camas son de metal, cuando 1 persona se mueve hace bastante ruido y cuesta dormir. Alquile una bici y estaba en muy malas condiciones. El hostel es muy lindo, pero no recomiendo alquilar una bici.
- Alex (9/5): - Energy of the hostel feels like home, I really enjoyed my stay and the staff was great. Just some days with people making a lot of noise in the room but not related to the hostel itself.
- Sarah (10/5): - This is one of the best hostels we have stayed in! The staff and volunteers are literally amazing and go above and beyond. The location is great and the day trips are so much fun. Would highly recommend and would definitely come back. One of our favourite places ever! Nothing
- Ellie (10/5): incredible - absolutely everything. beds we’re comfortable and had curtains for privacy. rooms had good working aircon. laundry available. staff were super friendly and helpful. days tours are very fun and worth the time and money. felt very safe the entire stay. such a family social vibe with “family dinners” organised by staff regularly and group activities as well the toilet seats were broken on our level and there wasn’t much hot water available in the showers but other than that everything was amazing

- Faith (10/5): I had a wonderful time meeting other travelers in the hostel and doing the day tours with the owners. Truly the highligh - The property was clean, safe, and very social. Nothing they did an amazing job
- Zarki (10/5): One of my mos memorable trips ever! - Loved all the volunteers and the activity leaders Robert and Erjon! The place was clean and the beds with the curtains gave a nice feeling of privacy. Most of all I loved the tours they offered and the dinner by shkodra lake was one of the nicest things I have eaten on this trip. The location is perfect, a 4 minute walk from the city center and the place was surrounded by small shops for everyday stuff.
I am so happy I did this trip and got to know so many beautiful people! Thank you Shkodra hostel!
- Yasmine (10/5): -
- Patricia (10/5): - The owners, the volunteers, the whole hostel team were like family. The day trips were phenomenal. The owners Rob and Erjon are hands down the most amazing people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. They are truly one of a kind individuals that pour their heart and soul into this community they’ve built. I had a once in a lifetime experience here and will 100% be back just because of these people. Consistently throughout the trip, they exceeded expectations as tour guides and went out of their way to make sure you felt safe, welcomed, and most importantly, happy!! I can’t wait to see you guys again!
- I.mulders (10/5): Exceptional - The greatest and friendliest hostel in Shkodra! Lovely staff, amazing day trips and a great overall atmosphere :) Lots of love to Rob, Erjon and all the volunteers!
- Marilene (9/5): Superb - Well located. The rooms are good and you can have some privacy. Clean and comfortable. Fantastic employees, from the girls at the reception to the guide who took us on the tour. incredible excursions. Activities every night promoting conviviality between guests.
- Kayla (9/5): Great place but make sure you’re aware you might not get the tour you want as they’re not every day. - Super social vibe, great common spaces and good bed privacy too. Great place to stay. It wasn’t very clear that every day you only do one tour, which is decided by votes, so you need to make sure you have multiple nights in case due to the voting you don’t get to do the tour you wanted. For example I never got to do the Theth hike which was the whole reason I went. The tours also leave early so whatever day you arrive you’ll probably miss them that day so you really need multiple days. The tours are also quite expensive, 60 euro for the Shala river trip yet it was pretty much just a transfer and one stop for a swim - personally not worth 60 euros at all.
- Anna (7/5): Good - Good location, lots of tour options, nice outdoor area Not negative, but it’s a young party hostel - something to take into consideration
- Maeve (10/5): Welcoming and social hostel - The absolute best social vibe at the hostel - everyone was so friendly and the volunteers actually made an effort to get everyone involved. If felt like a community, and we would have loved to extend our time here if our trip allowed. Definitely recommend the day tours as they really are worth it, and the location is just perfect for more self-paced days in the town. The bathrooms could have had hooks on the doors, and some of the rooms are significantly smaller than others, but we stayed for four nights and it was perfectly manageable.
- Anna (6/5): Good value for money - Good tours organised, friendly staff, good location, helped organise my transportation to Valbona and from Theth. It’s quite a social party hostel, so the more introverted people struggled to integrate
- Joe (10/5): Exceptional -
- Chapman (10/5): Welcoming and incredible - The best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. You meet so many amazing people!! The day tours are an absolute must and make the stay unforgettable and they are worth the money. I would definitely stay again The pillow was uncomfy but I don’t have anything bad to say.
- Rebecca (9/5): Superb - Amazing hotel with an excellent vibe , staff and the volunteers go out of their way to make you feel welcome ,
I didn’t get to do any but their tours looks fabulous and they were great and making a fun group atmosphere. The bunks are a little creaky so hope your don’t have any restless sleepers in your dorm.
- Callum (10/5): Best Hostel in Albania - One of the best hostels in Albania! Fantastic staff and volunteers, along with cool day trips and activities. Great area to hang out in, very social vibes. Shout-out Bella and Zo for being great volunteers. Great comfortable beds. Showers and bathrooms could be slightly better, but honestly not bad at all.
- Ryden (10/5): Exceptional -
- Alexis (10/5): A great memory - I met amazing people thanks to the activities The showers (at least the one on the first floor) are too small without a place to keep the cloths dry
- Jaime (10/5): Exceptional - Everyone was really friendly, the tours were amazing N/A
- Mary (10/5): Exceptional - Everyone’s so friendly and there such a great atmosphere
- Angela (7/5): Good - Excellent breakfast, very nice staff, big lockers in dorms, cozy and social outdoor area. Small dorms, unstable and noisy beds, cramped bathrooms, small showers with no real space to put stuff.
- Destiny (10/5): Fun central nice - Simple but nice clean hostel very centrally located plus fun kind staff and good vibe without being a drunkenfest. Not to mention fun tours.
- Simriddhi (10/5): Great energy and vibes! The highlight of the stay was definitely the tour. The hosts are very helpful and sweet! -
- Tara (9/5): Superb -
- Karīna (9/5): Superb -
- Cypers (10/5): Exceptional - The best hostel i have been to, the 2 owners are the coolest dudes. You can see the love that they put in the hostel. Its a very well equiped hostel with good showers, a good kitchen and nice beds. There is also a lovely outside chill area where everybody just hangs out en plays games. They organise day tours to a couple different spots. The drive you there with vans and they make everything so easy for you whils't also being very fun. I only got good things to say about the hostel and the 2 owners robert and aryan.
- Toby (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ahmed (9/5): Superb -
- David (7/5): Good - Great location, very central, right next to the bus station. Staff was hospitable and friendly. A dorm room is a great price at €10/night during low season, but they charge €1 to use card, which is an extra 10% fee (normal card fees are 2-3%). I’ve used cards in all other hostels in Albania, and they never charged €1 (they just charged the value).
Their bus price list is also outdated; they told me €17 to Kotor, but it’s actually €20 in morning and €25 for afternoon bus. So I had to scramble to find extra cash.
These may be small but important details if they want to improve their traveler experience as tourism continues to grow.
- Edgar (10/5): Exceptional - 1They all speak English and Italian,
2 the hostel is near by everything
3 despite some people leave everything dirty every day the woman working there will clean everything PROPERLY!!!!
4 the curtain really makes all the difference!!!! You just close it and you will have all your privacy...
5 for a few euros they will arrange a bus to Tirana or to the airport, they will call for you for free.
Price/ service this hostel is probably the best that you can get in Albania.
Ps: the kitchen has all the tools you need. after 10 days there is nothing bad
- Gaëtane (10/5): Exceptional - I stayed there as a solo traveller, and found the hostel really welcoming also thanks to the team working there. I had a change of plan during my travel and they were really helpful, caring about the safety and gave advice about what to do and what to see around there.
Regarding the room, the beds have curtains that gave the intimacy needed. I did not use the kitchen and can't say anything about it except that it looked well equipped. I also so that they were games in the living room for residents to use! The shower might just need a little shelf to put our things away from the water.
- Fernando (10/5): Really cool staff! - Nice place to stay and the owner very very helpful!
- Roberto (10/5): Exceptional - Nice staff and facilities.
Thanks Robert
- Nicholas (9/5): Superb -
- Dmitrii (10/5): Exceptional - One of the best places to stay in Albania. Modern, clean and cozy hostel. Helpful owner, able to tell you about the sights you can visit
- Nurlan (8/5): Nice place to stay again - It was nice one. The bed has curtain, plugin, light. The room has locker, big enough and even shelf to pack the bag. Location was very good, as well as the staff. Bathroom sinks are modern. Had a wall hair dryer. Had a work desk in common area room, sofas. The shower was cold. In summer it's not an issue. It had one shower in every floor. Checkout time is somewhat earlier. For such not a big, busy hostel it's very early.
- Daniel (10/5): Perfect hostel - 10/10 option, even more considering the price. Beds are super comfortable and with curtains. The common places are insane, the kitchen is big, clean, perfect equipment. Also you have an outside zone where you can chill with the other guests. The vibe was amazing, everybody super cool, and in the center of the city. Owner or manager is very nice. Big lockers in the room. The very best place in Shkoder. The bathrooms could be a little bit cleaner, the floor was wet but appart from that is one of the best hostels I've ever been and i've been in more than 40. Thanks so much!

- Ahmet (10/5): Exceptional - I really enjoyed my time here, I can say that it was almost the best hostel I stayed in during my Balkan tour. Everything you need is available there. I highly recommend this place. Thank you for everything.
I would also like to thank the staff, they were very kind and friendly 👌👌👌👌
- Jose (8/5): Very good - I believe Booking.com stated that the breakfast was included. But the Hostel guys told me it wasn't and I got a refund and a bonus: free towel.
Good people both customers and the hostel crew.
The family little kitten knows how to make herself loved and cuddled :)
The option of planning day trip excursions to the Albanian Alps :)
Ample kitchen and plenty of facilities and room.
Good size dorms and beds with curtains. Good new mattresses too. A bit small shower cubicle, Likely to flood if the drain does not take fast enough the water away.
- Emil (8/5): Very good -
- Tiffany (10/5): Centrally located and friendly staff - Great location! Very social environment and friendly people.

- Paige (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing location, facilities and staff! After only planning on staying 1 night I ended up extending my stay for 6 nights here. Owners are very knowledgeable and helpful and volunteers are super friendly and welcoming. Day trips are well organised and great value. Would recommend this hostel to anyone!

- Jacob (10/5): Lovely place to stay! - Volunteers were lovely, toilets on each floor (with a water-jet), comfy beds, indoor and outdoor lounge (which came in handy, as it was pouring).
Very chilled vibes, but they had no issues with visitors being boisterous, playing drinking games, etc. so, it was a great balance. Their kitten was very sociable and cuddly :)
Heavy rain meant I couldn't explore Shkoder at all, so I can't judge the location. Most of the guests were signing up for the day tours, which sounded fun! Wish I was there for longer.
- Natasha (10/5): Would definitely stay again, best hostel I stayed in! - Facilities were great, location is great very central with buses running a 1 min walk away. Staff are so lovely and very helpful. They run amazing tours with different options all very reasonably priced and great fun! Would highly recommend and would stay again. Nothing everything was great
- Viswanathan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Olivia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Fleur (8/5): Alright. - Good bed and breakfast. Own locker. Narrow toilet and shower where you can hear anything. If you stay in the dorm on the ground floor, you hear everything they say in the common area.
- Prince (10/5): Awesome hostel - will stay again next time I'm in Shkodër! - Immensely friendly staff (shout out in particular to Carina and Nikolas), clear communication, great facilities and met great people!

There is an indoor and outdoor area with sofas where you can sit and chill and socialise. Bikes available to rent which is a nice touch . Kitchen with lots of utensils and cooking equipment
I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Shkoder and I stayed an extra night and would visit again. There was only one shower to service two rooms with 6 guests in each.
- Oliver (10/5): Outstanding staff,super helpful and kind hearted people . -
- Samir (9/5): Superb -
- Melissa (10/5): Exceptional - Loved this hostel, great location! Their tours create a great social an adventurous atmosphere. Highly recommend doing them (I did the Highlands & Canyon tours).

- Duke (8/5): Very good - Staff was great, very helpful and friendly. Good location.
- Duke (8/5): Very good -
- Samantha (8/5): Very nice hostel in Shkoder - The staff is amazing ! Ready to help and recommend you the best tours. They offer transportation for those who wish to do the hike in the North and great tours in the canyon (not to miss !!) we had a lot of fun. Lack of options for breakfast.
- Alinia (9/5): Superb - Great social hostel, bike rental for 5€ a day, laundry for 3€, baggage storage for 2€ a night (if you are leaving the hostel for a hike)
many day trips offered
Good kitchen facilities
dorms equipped with curtains, reading lights, plug sockets, air con, lockers
multiple toilets and 1 shower per floor
excellent location, right near the bus centre and a few minutes from the main strip unfortunately my day tour was cancelled and the staff did not tell me :( I did get a full refund
the showers are a little small
washing machines are quite old and I had to set my clothes to drain multiple times. Not all staff are aware of how to use the washing machines either perhaps they can ensure everyone is trained to make laundry services smoother for guests?
- Jack (10/5): Exceptional -
- Arthur (9/5): A solid option with a social feel - Cute kitten
Good social areas both indoors and outdoors
I liked the curtains on the beds and lockers in the rings
The Shkodra Canyon trip that they organised was great Pillows were a bit on the big side and I ended up with a stiff neck
Also it was a bit annoying to have to take my shoes off every time I went inside (it’s split over three levels and joined by an outdoor staircase)
- Shannon (9/5): Albania is beautiful, Skhoder hostel provides the perfect base to explore. - The highlight of the trip was the day tour to the Albanian Alps offered through the hostel. Perfect small group tour, full of adventure and seeing the country through the eyes of a local. Overall the hostel was very clean and welcoming with helpful staff. Could not book in advance for the tours, but this was understandable.
