“Ignorant and very rude lady”

The cost with breakfast included and the location

“Recommend”

The hostel is pretty new and clean. They have very big lockers for your bags (my camping gear took up only half the space). WiFi, toilets, shower - everything works well.

“It was amazing.”

The location is the best.

“Felt like home”

The staffs were excellent and the owner was very friendly and helpful

“Perfect hostel for backpackers and breakfast is a bonus”

The breakfast was so idyllic to eat in the bar or on the balcony in the sunshine, with gentle music playing. Breakfast was a huge filled croissant, coffee or tea with water. On the first day I was given juice, the second day I was very early but they still made coffee and had croissants to hand. There were only two other people staying when I was there. The shower was clean and got to a good temperature. I never had to queue. The shower hours are early and late as it's on the bar level but I'm a night owl so it never bothered me. There was a nice balcony which overlooked the street. Towels were provided. The lockers were large (big enough for a cabin suitcase, definitely large enough for my under seat bag) The staff were kind and accommodating, when there was a chance I would miss my bus and arrive after curfew, they offered to let me in very late! Luckily it wasn't needed. That evening I nipped out to get food before curfew and as I was eating it in the bar area I was offered water and staff tidied my rubbish away for me. I didn't need to use it, but baggage storage was available at checkout for 5 euro per day if needed

All great except location of showers.

“Just perfect.”

I had an absolutely amazing time at Symphony hostel. I decided to extend my stay because Shköder is a great base for exploring the Northern region of Albania. Being situated above the bar and cafeteria means you can always get a cappuccino, fresh juice, or a drink during your stay. The cafeteria and reception area has power outlets both inside and outside for working and charging your phone. The staff go above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. As of April 2026, breakfast consists of a croissant and coffee of your choice. I booked the minibus ride to Theth and back through the hostel, and they picked me up at 07:00 as scheduled. Return ride was 17:00. Everything was punctual, and the hostel provided an early breakfast. Every room was clean, and I appreciated the included towel and the spacious locker with a key. If you can manage the shower times, which are from 6:00-08:00, 14:00-17:00, and after 22:00 as of April 2026, I highly recommend this hostel, which has a lot of potential. There is a balcony on the top where you can view the main street and enjoy some time alone, away from the cafeteria crowd.

“Pick this hostel !”

It's a beautiful place, managed by a family and they make you feel like part of them, always with a smile. Pick this place, won't regret. Everything is very clean, safe lockers, good views from the terrace, they have a proper space to work if you need AND great coffee. The location is also fantastic, right in the middle of everything. 10/10

I've been here in the end of march and loved my stay at this place. It is located in the center of Shkodar, everything you need and you want to see is in walkable distance. The Hostel is a family-owned business and everyone is lovely, open minded and loves to help. If you're looking for a comfy stay, you love to meet people and authentic places go and stay here for a while, suck up the warm hospitality, enjoy brilliant coffees in the sun and find a home for few days. Thanks for the great time with you!

The host is very friendly and nice and it's very convenient to grab a coffee and food because downstairs is their restaurant. Besides the breakfast was also perfect, even though I missed breakfast time they still kept it for me that's really very nice.

“it was an amazing stay”

When I woke up in the morning, sunlight naturally streamed in through the attic window, which felt wonderful. The staff were also very kind. They showed me their recommendations for lunch and dinner, and even let me stay in the cafe(they gave me some blankets and towels as well). The cafe itself was spacious and really comfortable, especially on the couches. Thanks to that, my work went very well. I honestly do feel that I should have paid three times more for this level of comfort. I would like to book this hostel again next time I visit Shkodër. Faleminderit shumë!!

“Location, staff, breakfast, facilities - everything was perfect.”

The staff were very attentive, the place was clean, and I really liked the complimentary orange juice at breakfast., Location, staff, breakfast, facilities - everything was perfect.

I can't sleep well because of the music in the restaurant, but overall everything is great.

Working people there are supernice and do everything they can to accomodate your needs. Big and spacious room Big lockers and super comfy beds. Slept like a child. It is above a bar but there is no noise from there. Situation is perfect. To return without a doubt.

“Unforgettable tirp enthusiatic service”

Clean, comfortable, nice balcony

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was also nice and spacious with everything I needed. I also loved the balcony that looks out over the city.

“Perfect for short stay!”

I really like the way it is, differently from regular hostels Very big spaced room in a Cousy building And lovely staff! So nice and helpful 👌😊

“Fully recommended!”

Wonderful place to stay! Such friendly and welcoming staff. Large dormitories and comfortable beds. Lockers. Breakfast was good too! Everything was great!

“Huge room and comfortable!”

Everything was perfect. Card payment was accepted, the room was huge so even I booked 10 beds dorm room, there are so many spaces, which was quite nice. The locker was huge that my 60L backpack could fit, and key was provided. And they have A/C, so I didn’t feel cold at night. The breakfast was awesome, selection from a croissant or omelette and some vegetables.
