Close to the beaches and the village, only 5 min walk to both. The people are exceptionally nice, nothing was too much trouble. Really generous cooked breakfast as well as cereals and fruit. The pool was lovely and the beds are comfy. It's brand new so everything was pristine. Really enjoyed our stay.

Nothing really, it was great. What would make it even better would be if it was possible to grab a bite to eat and a drink on the rooftop, maybe in time!

The hotel is located near the sea at a quiet place. The rooms are very modern and clean and the staff is super friendly and always there to help. The pool filtration stays always on so the water stays clean. Definitely recommend !

Everything was great !

The hotel is very nice, the location is central and practical. Close to the beach. The room was very clean and comfortable. The staff is very nice and joyful. The breakfast is perfect (lots of choice and local specialities). We 100% recommend! Thank you!

This is a beautiful family run hotel (they take great pride in the place and ensuring guests are happy) Good sized rooms and lovely COMFY bed, we slept really well. We loved the location just 5 to 10 min walk to bars beach, slightly off the main drag. (As with all main drags it can be noisy with motorbikes/scooters up n down- but this hotel is just far enough away) Delicious breakfast freshly cooked (and varied) every morning, the scrambled eggs are divine (perfect every time) sets you up for the day. The nearest restaurant is pizza, very good. And next one down (less than 5 mins walk from hotel is Fishermans Grill/restaurant. Run by a fisherman and family.... Not as fancy as the restaurants on the main drag/near beach BUT the food here is divine. The crab/mussels/prawns/squid/cod (and we still have more things to try!) very reasonable price and beautifully fresh fish. Beach wise... Recommend you head to Horizont beach/bar/restaurant. Family run, food is very good/drinks reasonable/decent WC facilities and great service. The sunbeds are half the price of most of the others. About a 15 min walk, its at far end of the beach (ask Mr Google for directions!) Hotel has lovely pool with comfy chairs and hotel rooms have furnished balconies to enjoy the sun. Our first time in Albania and we loved it, and we certainly dropped lucky with this hotel , its a hidden gem - highly recommend it! Many thanks to siblings Dilka, front of house and Redi on the breakfasts along with their parents who you could see genuinely loved there work and looked after us so well On a minor note, on arrival a couple of bottles of water in the room would have been welcome while finding our feet.

Loved it!

10/10 – The Best Hotel Experience Ever! I absolutely loved my stay at Monel Hotel! The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made me feel safe and truly cared for from start to finish. Their warmth and professionalism created such a positive atmosphere—it felt like home away from home. The breakfast deserves a special mention—it was honestly the best I’ve ever had at any hotel! Fresh, delicious, and with so many great options. I looked forward to it every single morning. Everything about my stay was perfect. I felt happy, relaxed, and well taken care of the entire time. I would recommend this hotel to everyone! Whether you’re traveling alone or with family, Monel Hotel is the place to be. Thank you to the amazing team for making my stay unforgettable. I will definitely be back!

The staff is simply amazing. They go above and beyond to help with anything you need (we dropped some glass bottles, had a minor car scratch) - they were always happy to help and you felt in good hands. The breakfast was the best we had in Albania among 5 hotels, always fresh and changing every single day. The pool was nice as it even had a small bassin for children. The room was comfortable and spacious with a nice shower. The location is close to the action in Ksamil while still having tranquility and quiet nights! The staff is very kids friendly making us feel at home and very welcome. Room service great as our rooms always felt nice and clean. We also had practical additions like a clothes rack on the balcony and a fridge.

Perhaps getting a safe to store valuables that cannot be taken easily (the current one is small and very light).

The building is brand new and super clean, the beds were really comfortable. The breakfast was always fresh and prepared separately for you, the selection varied every day which I enjoyed. The beach is just around the corner. A big compliment also to the receptionist, he was always very friendly and kind. Totally recommend!

The building could need some green plants, especially on the rooftop terrace. Something to give a bit color to the shiny new surfaces.

Spotless, brand new feeling hotel. Lovely welcome from a young man who spoke excellent English and even sent us a whatsapp full of things to do during our stay which was a really nice touch. Close enough to the beach to walk, but far enough away to feel more peaceful than on the front. Breakfast was great.

If you have any dietary requirements just be aware that breakfast is served to you with no prior discussion. I really enjoyed it and was happy with this, but unfortunately my partner has coeliac and required a gluten free breakfast. We let the hotel know when we booked and messaged the day before to confirm, but she was still served a plate full of gluten and felt very uncomfortable returning the plate. The ladies who were cooking were wonderful and kindly made a gluten free plate, but if I was to return, we would remind them again as soon as arriving at breakfast. Also, limited English so ensure you have this translated into Albanian (we did).
