There was nothing we didn’t like about the property.

Lovely hotel, with very friendly, welcoming staff. Great courtyard for drinks and food, all in an excellent location with easy walking distance to the town centre. Shkoder is a lovely old city and has a great atmosphere.

The food is outstanding unique, super healthy, and prepared with care, with each dish explained by the staff with genuine passion and knowledge. The beds are incredibly comfortable, and each room is beautifully designed and unique, making it feel like you’re sleeping in a living museum

Property with a lot of character. My boyfriend asked to arrange for a small surprise upon arrival and they prepared everything with no extra charge. Very sweet workers and great breakfast. Has an amazing restaurant also if you look for a place to have dinner!

Hotel Tradita is a charming hotel, full of character in a historic building. Breakfast is amazing (make sure you go inside to where they are cooking food and fresh bread over the coals). The staff are wonderful. They organised our 3 night trip to do the Theth to Valbona walk. Every detail was managed with personal care and attention. We would highly recommend this trip to anyone coming to Shkoder.

Full cultural immersion for us! Arrived late we were kindly welcomed. Help offers to park our car. Guided to our room while local guest and visitors were dining. Saturday night fever, it was great to witness people singing and dancing, we decided to have diner there too. It was fun! Our family room was clean, comfortable and WiFi was working ok. Breakfast generous and great effort to combine local flavour and foreigners tastes.

Traditional style Albanian property that has been thoughtfully restored. Highlight is the courtyard which houses the excellent restaurant and fabulous breakfast. Waiters were all knowledgeable and made great suggestions for local food and wine. Rooms are quaint with the best showers we had on our entire Balkans trip. Parking onsite where you hand keys over on arrival. Only thing that was a slight negative (for us) was the live music at the restaurant that was right outside our window so made sleep impossible until 2230, we had young kids with us. But having the restaurant and courtyard there was such a big plus that it didn't detract from the overall stay.

Hotel Tradita is an absolute gem in the heart of Albania. From the moment you walk in, you’re embraced by warmth, hospitality, and the rich spirit of Albanian tradition. The architecture is a beautiful blend of Geg and Tosk styles, with every detail carefully crafted to reflect the country’s heritage. The rooms are spotless, cozy, and decorated with authentic touches that make you feel like you’ve stepped into a traditional Albanian home – yet with all the modern comforts. The staff is incredibly kind, professional, and always ready to assist with a smile. The hotel restaurant is a highlight in itself: delicious traditional dishes made with local ingredients and timeless recipes that take you on a journey through Albanian culinary history. The atmosphere is warm, lively, and perfect for romantic dinners or gatherings with friends. If you’re looking for a place that truly captures the soul, history, and flavors of Albania, Hotel Tradita Geg & Tosk is the perfect choice. We can’t wait to return!

Slightly small room. No aircon (although, the room was kept at a cool temperature). Live music and party atmosphere in restaurant could be disruptive for some.

Excellent staff all round, welcoming and friendly. Cosy and traditional-style decor. Very fun atmosphere in the attached restaurant. Live music until late. Excellent food and atmosphere. Would absolutely recommend.

The bathroom is on the smaller side, nowhere to hang a towel , no storage room. A couple of hooks on the walls would make a world of difference.

We picked this hotel because of the traditional Albanian look, but it also has modern amenities. Our room was very clean, the bed was comfortable. Good food in the on site restaurant .

Unfortunately must mention about the cats being on the tables. The tables were set for service so the cat touched plates and glasses

Lovely place, lovely atmosphere on the courtyard for dinning. Room comfortable

Nothing really - I hope it does not change as it is so different.

Our first trip to Albania and we wanted to get as true a sense of the real Albania as possible. Tradita met this brief; it is one of a kind; very much NOT an identikit European hotel and so ranks as special. The hotel is traditionally built but provided good facilities even though everything looks very old. Of particular note is the open 'hall' restaurant and courtyard and wooden walkways to the rooms. It was like stepping back in time, with common areas full of antique items from rural Albania and a small museum with traditional costumes. A real treasure trove and unique ambiance. The big hall-like restaurant with its open fire is open to non-residents so was full most nights. The food was authentic and flavoursome, with grilled meats, veg and stews. The portions are plentiful so take care not to over-order. The bread baked on the fire was huge but delicious. Breakfast was a buffet and comprehensive; in addition to the usual breakfast items there were many local products including home-baked Albanian walnut cake, plus orange and lemon cakes; all were delicious. Hot breakfast food was served by the open fire in the dining room. The rooms were all individual with authentic materials, furnishings and rug. Our room was clean and compact but had all we needed including a very clean bathroom. Towels and linen were of high quality and much better than expected. Another unique aspect was that all the staff were wearing a form of local dress. They were all professional and efficient. With some limited English, at time they came across as a bit brusque and reserved, but always helpful. They appreciated our attempts at a few words in Albanian. At times they had a lot of people to deal with as the place was v busy with tour groups in the hotel and the restaurant. Another bonus was the location and being able to park the hire car off the busy city-centre street. There was limited space but the staff moved cars around and kept an eye on them all the time.
