Lia (10/5): Thank you! - I'm a 37year old solo traveller- and it was great for me. Interesting people, easy space to be by yourself & chat with others. I don't think it's a big party hostel - which I was v happy about, but full of lovely people! Also the hostel supports a human rights charity - seriously good shit! I didn't spend more time talking with Lorna :)

Lou (10/5): -
Elsa (10/5): - O hostel é muito limpo, muito bem organizado e com respeito em tudo, impecável. O espaço comum é lindíssimo, decorado com muito bom gosto, e tem sempre música muito agradável. Tenho pena de não ter trocado mais com a dona, que parecia uma pessoa muito interessante e muito simpática. Óptimo pequeno almoço Embora fique a uns 15 minutos a pé do centro, isso não me incomodou nada. Um dos hostels de que mais gostei na Albânia, recomendo vivamente.
Herbert (10/5): - The Red Goat Hostel is a great experience in Tirana you shouldn't miss. It is run by Lora in the name of a local NGO and the flair and atmosphere there is unique. You feel a warm welcome during the whole stay, you enjoy the pretty garden and a great breakfast and you get a lot of insights about Albania from Lora. Thanks for everything!
Roxanne (10/5): Havre de paix - Super accueil, l'hostel est un havre de paix avec de la bonne musique et un petit dejeuner incroyable. J'ai tellement adoré que j'y suis revenue sur le chemin de retour. Merci encore pour l'accueil et des bisous aux doggys <3 Rien tout était parfait
Maria (8/5): - La colazione era buona, tutto preparato da Lora (lo yogurt, il formaggio, le marmellate) ed è stato molto bello poter fare colazione in cortile sotto il melograno.
Vinicius (8/5): - L'ospitalità.
Elizabeth (8/5): - Lovely, safe place with lovely outdoor area for a yummy breakfast- which was made to your wishes!
Na (7/5): Es war sehr gemütlich, Lora war sehr herzlich und entspannt! - Ein ruhiges und gemütliches Hostel, in dem es sich nett verweilen lässt. Wer Partys oder große Unternehmungen sucht ist hier falsch, wer gemütliche Gespräche führen und gute Musik hören möchte, goldrichtig :)
ANA MARIA (10/5): Un lugar excepcional - Inigualable! La limpieza excepcional, el Dormitorio cómodo y muy limpio. Los ambientes y zonas comunes muy bonitos, con música muy agradable. Un lugar para descansar y conectar, seguro y pacífico. Y el desayuno espectacular, te sientes mejor que en casa! Nada, todo genial!
Guest (10/5): Non potevo sperare di meglio. Sopra le aspettative! - La proprietaria è molto disponibile e simpatica. Lo spazio è molto bello e curato, tranquillo e la posizione perfetta. Colazione squisita con marmellate e yogurt fatto in casa. Una parte del ricavato viene investito in una associazione femminista. Consigliatissimo! Tutto perfetto
Gabriela (10/5): - The owner Lora is an amazing woman!
Jonas (10/5): I’ve been here twice. Great atmosphere to just hang out but also within walking distance to all spots. Great host! -

Paulin (10/5): Entspanntes sauberes Hostel, das von Lora liebevoll geführt wird. - Ich war zum zweiten Mal im Red Goat, weil es mir so gut gefallen hat. Es ist ein sauberes, ruhiges, liebevoll gestaltetes und entspanntes Hostel. Es gibt einen Frauenschlafsaal, weshalb ich das Hostel gebucht habe. Lora ist super und macht das beste Frühstück!

EKWUNIFE (8/5): - Amazing host. Kitchen utensils need to be replaced. Especially pots and frying pans. But apart from that everything else works
Leah (10/5): Such a vibe - Nice chill atmosphere and aesthetic. Rooms are clean and comfortable. The breakfast is sooooo good and I love the dogs.

Pedro Oscar (9/5): -
Charlotta Lisett (10/5): -
Márton (9/5): - The location is really good and close to everything you wanna see. The breakfast is amazing the owner is making it, home made cheese and jam and bread and eggs. The host is really kind and you feel really good when you enter. The room is small but it is really okay I think when you are backpacking.
Guest (10/5): - We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Red Goat Hostel! Lora is an amazing host and made us feel very welcome. Even though it is centrally located in the city, it is very calm and quiet in the hostel itself with an incredibly restful atmosphere and vibe. The breakfast is fabulous as well with homemade yoghurt and cheese, and it was great to have access to a washing machine after many days traveling!
Guest (10/5): Best stay in Tirana - This hostel is such a gem! From the cleanliness of every space to the comfort of the beds, the owner Lora’s warmth, the beautiful and cozy living areas, and the yummy home-cooked breakfast — I loved my stay. I even caught myself wanting to stay a little longer in Tirana just to spend more time at Red Goat. Good vibes all around!
Danisman (8/5): Great hostel in Tirana - The hospitality of the host is amazing. Very friendly lady and a chill minimalistic hostel to have a good rest and great breakfast. The host was eager to help around and answer questions. Room has airco! Not much tbh, overal great experience.
Emma (9/5): A really unique hostel experience, felt more like a home! - Laura has done a wonderful job creating more of a “home” for travellers, than just a place to sleep at night. The hostel is small, comfortable and quiet, creating a really calm and welcoming home base when staying in Tirana. Laura’s home cooked breakfast and coffee is a bonus! Nothing!
Paulin (10/5): Wohlfühlen - Ruhige saubere Unterkunft, tolle Lage. Laura ist sehr gastfreundlich.
Jenna (10/5): -
Jeanne (10/5): Super séjour. Je reviendrai avec plaisir ! - Je me suis vraiment sentie comme à la maison dans cette auberge ! Les espaces partagés sont cosy, chaleureux, les chambres et salle de bain à l’étage sont bien aménagées et très propres. J’ai trouvé que le red goat hostel était parfait : la localisation centrale, l’accueil de Laura (qui vous partagera sa passion pour l’Albanie), le petit déjeuner avec le formage maison 👌 et la petite musique de fond qui chance de la techno albanaise ☺️. C’est l’auberge idéale pour les voyageurs qui souhaitent rencontrer d’autres voyageurs dans une ambiance calme et sereine sans beer pong, ni pub crawl !
Jantine (9/5): - The host is nice and helpful. It is nice to talk with her. The hostel is clean and the breakfast is fantastic.
Paoline (10/5): Great ambiance, great people! - One of the nicest hostels I’ve stayed in for a while! The host Lora is a very kind woman and the overall ambiance is just amazing. She plays great music as well. Most people that stayed there during my stay were over 30 years old, which is a breath of fresh air compared to a lot of other places. Nothing!
Beth (10/5): - Excellent stay with welcoming host, very clean room and peaceful atmosphere
Clara (8/5): Hospitalidad y buen ambiente en pleno centro de Tirana - Lora es una anfitriona fantástica, con una personalidad arrolladora. Consigue crear un ambiente muy acogedor y familiar. El desayuno es abundante y delicioso, y todo estaba muy limpio. Además, el hostel está junto a una calle muy céntrica donde se puede encontrar de todo. Como aspecto a mejorar, la habitación me pareció algo pequeña para seis personas. Dos de las literas estaban muy juntas, y bastaba coincidir con otra huésped cambiándose para que resultara incómodo moverse. También eché en falta persianas o cortinas que ayudaran a tapar el sol a primera hora de la mañana.
Omer (9/5): - Very comfortable beds and great common area Breakfast included is really good and the coffee great as well
Judith (10/5): -
Chiheb (10/5): - It was one of the most beautiful hostels I’ve been I would say Laura was amazing, she treated us like members of her family. I highly recommend this hostel
Jemima (9/5): - Room was so spacious, facilities were always so clean and the front garden is great for resting. Breakfast is amazing with homemade jam and cheese. The host Laura is so generous and helped me with local recommendations. Would recommend staying here!
Guest (9/5): - Gute Lage, sehr schöner Aufenthaltsbereich. Bequeme Betten und saubere Zimmer mit AC. Ein paar technische Mängel. Die Vorhänge der Betten sind teils unbrauchbar, weil unbeweglich. Ein Duschkopf ging nicht, wodurch nur eine Dusche übrig blieb. Mein größter Kritikpunkt ist jedoch die fehlende Privatsphäre der WCs. Statt Türen gibt es Klapptüren mit viel Platz oben und unten. Dadurch können die anderen Menschen im Bad die Person auf der Toilette hören, riechen und vielleicht sogar sehen.
Maeve (10/5): -
Lankoski (10/5): - Very pleasant atmosphere at the hostel. Super nice owner and a tasty breakfast!
Theresa (10/5): - Lora is amazing and the people who come too
Elia (9/5): -
Kathleen (9/5): Excellent, warm and friendly hostel - A lovely relaxed atmosphere, and the owner is so friendly and welcoming. A hidden gem! Breakfast is delicious, homemade and fresh. Would definitely return
Juan (10/5): -
Edina (10/5): - Super sweet atmosphere, cool people, very cozy and clean place and enjoyed the chats with Lora, the owner :)
Sarina Maul (10/5): Aufenthalt in Tirana - Es ist ein tolles Hostel, sehr sauber, super Lage aber ausschlaggebend ist Lora, sie macht das Hostel zu dem, was es ist. Es gibt nichts, was mir nicht gefallen hat
Sidra (10/5): - I loved everything about my stay at this place. Lora is an amazing person and guides you well about your options to have fun in Tirana. She makes fresh breakfast for everyone in the morning and the place is clean, well equipped and maintained. Everything is squeaky clean too. Highly recommended.
Luigi (10/5): Oltre le aspettative sono rimasto soddisfatto - La proprietaria ti fa sentire a casa tua molto ospitale e collaborativa. La struttura è pulita e le camera sono nuove, la posizione è molto comada e ben collegata a 10 minuti dalla oiazza proncipale. Consiglio veramente, prenoterai di nuovo qui
Guest (10/5): - amazing atmosphere,she was so friendly and nice good beds, breakfast chefs kiss
Anca (10/5): -
ww (10/5): - 사장님이 엄청 친절하시고 유쾌하세요! 깨끗하고 아침도 맛있어요! 아기자기하고 예쁘게 꾸며져있고, 유료지만 음료도 구비되어 있어서 공용공간에서 카페처럼 시간 보내기도 좋았어요. (물은 무료로 제공됐습니다) 화장실도 넉넉하고 깨끗했고 전반적으로 만족스러웠습니당. 정원에 식물이 많아서 그런지 1층 공용공간에 모기가 좀 많았어요ㅠ하지만 침실에서는 한번도 못보긴 했습니다
Tim (8/5): -
Daria (10/5): - GREAT stay, thanks a lot to Lora. It is a very clean place, made with care and I would definitely come back. The breakfast was very good too.
Hauk (10/5): - I love this hostel! Clean, great ambiance, really laid back, and the owner is awesome 10/10
Alexander (10/5): A sanctuary in Tirana - - stunning house and super homely - Laura is the sweetest person you will ever meet. She will share a lot of history and very interesting stories about Albania, as well as her personal life. - cutest dogs and cat - safe space for woman and anyone LGBTQ - made my birthday really special! Will return to Tirana soon 🖤
Grace (10/5): Excelente, hostel muitooo agradável - Tudo excelente, a casa é linda, o café da manhã delicioso e a gestora faz tudi com muito carinho. NA

Pia (10/5): We stayed at Lora‘s Hostel and started our Roadtrip from there. Lora was very welcoming and kind! She gave us travel rec - Feels like a home far away Familiar atmosphere You can use the kitchen Relaxing and welcoming Homemade breakfast
Aicha (10/5): Parfait - L atmosphère, la déco, la localisation : proche de tout mais quartier calme. Petit déjeuner généreux. La climatisation. Et Lora est adorable excellent accueil, toujours agréable et aux petits soins.
Anna (10/5): Gemütliches Hostel, lädt zum Verweilen ein - The red goat hostel was a definitive highlight of our two week trip in albania and the perfect arrival place in tirana. Laura, our host, creates a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere and gives amazing tips. One of our favourite times was the breakfasts in the garden where we had a typically Albanian breakfast (omelette, tomatoes, bread and homemade jam!). The whole place is clean. The downstairs area is very cosy and all the guests were really nice and it was easy to make contact without it being forced. If you look for a relaxing and homey place, this is for you! Also Laura is involved with an Albanian charity supporting women, which is just amazing! Bisschen mehr Haken oder Stauraum wäre fein
Enton (10/5): -
Nichol (10/5): Perfect host, perfect location, exceptional breakfast. Homey and felt immediately welcome. - Lora is an amazing host. Cosy lovely homey vibe. Made me an outstanding vegan breakfast, even with homemade olive oil. Rooms were comfy and nice. Hot good shower. Lovely common spaces and very centrally located. Perfect. The rooms are quite bright with lots of natural light - lovey but if your sleep is effected by light, bring an eye mask :)
Guest (9/5): Female led hostel with lovely vibe - Hugs and kisses to Lora! Super happy about this find, would always go there again and gonna recommend all my friends. A place where you feel especially safe as a flinta* It’s been clean, cozy, chill, super friendly and for animal lovers like me there are waiting three little fluffy fellows for you. Thanks for this great start for my second Albania trip!
Dennis (10/5): Tolles Hostel! - Ganz liebe Gastgeberin. Das Hostel sehr süß und liebevoll eingerichtet. Alles sehr sauber! Katzen und Hunde sind auch super lieb. Sehr zentral. Frühstück war sehr lecker. Parkmöglichkeiten sehr Schwierig. Man muss etwas Geduld haben beim suchen. Kleines Parkhaus wäre in der Nähe, aber alles sehr eng.
