Super friendly, had all the things that make an hostel perfect (plugs near the beds, small light, lock for luggages, small furniture in shower rooms to hold personal objects, wide letter to climb the beds, comfortable beds, ac and other details I could have not noticed. Plus it is a combination of traditional guest house together with hostel style. Location is super central

All the best! My experience at Saranda Boutique Hostel was simply delightful. The location is perfect, with easy access to the beach and the main spots in town. The atmosphere is warm, clean, and beautifully decorated, bringing a light and pleasant vibe. The staff is super friendly and always ready to help with a smile — I felt at home from the very first day. Definitely one of the best places I’ve ever stayed. I truly recommend it and I already want to come back! 💙✨”

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
