Tirana, the Republic of Albania's largest city, is blessed with a mild Mediterranean climate, a plethora of beautiful churches and lush parks. Founded in 1614, some striking Mussolini-era architecture dots the city center. Walk between sights such as Skanderbeg Square's 1789 Et'hem Bey Mosque, the 1830 Sahat-Kulla (Clock Tower) and the Puppet Theater, once home to King Zog's puppet parliament. Visit the Peace Bell, built with old cartridge shells, a reminder of Tirana's stormy past.

Buff is run by a young and energetic folks. With its minimalistic and practical design. Buff it offers you the space to meet with other travelers or private corners for you to focus and plan your next destination. Situated in a multilayered historical neighborhood, Buff is set in one of the main areas of attraction in Tirana. Historical sites, markets, bars, restaurants are all very near by.

Wouldn't recommend. Nothing worked. No breakfast (though different advertised online), not too clean, they gave us the wrong keys. And called a cab for the next morning and wanted to have the money before. But then the cab didn't show up and none of the staff was available.

We have 5 rooms with twin beds and two of those rooms can be made into a room with a queen size bed. We have a family room that has a queen size bed and two twin beds.
My wife and I are Josée and Joe nomadic travelers who choose to visit Tirana Albania city. Although we didn’t know Barb and her husband we stayed nearby and found them. From the moment we entered their restaurant we were comfortable. We struck up a conversation with Barbara ate chatted with others feeling completely happy. For us American & Canadian it’s cool sitting in a little bit of both our countries. The food was excellent as well as their pleasant staff. Cold draft beers full bar incredible specials at very good prices and I’m sure the B&B is as good as the rest. Come enjoy an amazing city and feel at home here

Located in the center of Tirana, The English Hostel offers both large private rooms and super-comfy dorm beds, as well as a fully equipped shared kitchen, free laundry facilities, and a cozy common area. Staff members speak English, Italian, German and Albanian. A robust buffet breakfast is served each morning and is included in your rate.
I want to say the Hostel is close to so many places in the area, and that it was easy to find and I found the staff very helpful and kind. It was small but cozy, and that like a real Hostel experience, I found great personalities, inexpensive drinks, and a true willingness to share information about the area. I will recommend this Hostel for those that like the good Ol fashion Hostel experience, with wonderful people, clean safe beds, lockers, and a super location - OH AND THE BREAKFAST IS AMAZING!

A small and friendly hostel situated 100 m from the city center and other interesting points. From here u are not far from anything. Recently opened and with a lot of albanian hospitality in it.
I have stayed in this small hostel on both of my visits to Tirana, and will do so on my third. It is hidden in a back alley behind a big corner street cafe; totally near the central square and the buses from/to the airport. The few rooms are very clean, have indoor shower/toilet, they are quiet and you can sleep soundly; the breakfast is great. This is Albania, so don't flip out over the decay behind the Tirana facades. This is still the 4th poorest country in Europe.

Conceptualized as a meeting point for curious travelers, digital nomads and locals, we try to make budget travelling a memorable cultural experience, paired with the coziness of a home and adequate service. Shared spaces are sacred to us, that is why we constantly reinvent ourselves with new art pieces, ongoing events and varied healthy recipes in our deli menu.
Very good staff in a very good hostel. Make sure to get the taxi from the airport arranged through the hostel. Its good value and saves you a lot of time finding the hostel as Tirana doesn't have street numbers. The included breakfast is good and the breakfast lady was ver nice and helpful. The beds are comfortable and the hostel is super clean.
