"Shkoder is an amazing city and Hotel Chicago is in the perfect spot. Please note, the hotel starts on the 4th floor and there are several stairs the need to be climbed to get to the elevator and then to the hotel itself. People with mobility issues should check ahead of time."

"We really loved this hotel, brilliant views, great staff, easy to get to the lakeside. Our one comment for feedback would be that we would like to specifically order breakfast items, the hotel only brought out what they had planned for breakfast, our only choice was the eggs, and even then we didn’t realise an omelette would be included. I think giving customers the ability to order what they want is better. "

"Great location, free parking, stylish design."

"When we got there they said they rented our room, and didnt have one available. They said theud refud our money, but we had to scramble to find a place to stay. I told our friends in Lezhe to tell everyone never to stay there."

"The resort was almost ready for the season. Looks like a family resort with lots of kid-friendly areas. Fantastic breakfast! Not the fastest wifi if you want to stream programs. "

"Great value for money, fab attention to detail and location. Resturant was great, and bar area. Fab for families."

"The staff were all amazing and went above and beyond. "

"This place is simply FANTASTIC! The minute you walk in, Velo warmly welcomes you as if you were part of the family. His mom Tatiana’s cooking is simple, authentic and absolutely delicious. The rooms are basic yet spacious, comfortable and super clean. Make sure to ask for the house barrel aged Raki, as smooth and luscious as a drink can get. Situated at short drive (30ish minutes) from the airport, I highly recommend as I first stop once you land in Albania… or a last night before going back home! Make sure to stay more than one night however, and ask Velo and his cousin Marjan for the morning hike up the hills, through the thousand year old olive garden. From the property you can reach a fabulous beach frequented by locals (Tale, 20 min) or drive up to Rozafa Castle (1h). Some roads can be a bit bumpy tough: when you get in and out, make sure you drive through the villages, don’t use short cuts Waze would suggest. All in all, one of the best travel stays I have ever had! ❤️"
