Red Lotus Tirana Apartments

En tant que nomades numériques en télétravail, nous avons passé un excellent séjour de deux mois aux Red Lotus Apartments. L’appartement était impeccable, moderne et parfaitement équipé, avec une connexion Wi‑Fi rapide, la climatisation, un lave-linge et une cuisine entièrement équipée — des atouts idéaux pour travailler à distance dans un cadre confortable. L’emplacement était particulièrement appréciable : calme et sûr, tout en restant proche du centre-ville, des cafés et des restaurants. Esti a également été une hôte remarquable, à la fois sympathique, réactive et toujours disponible pour nous aider.

My friends and I booked both apartments, and we were very pleased with our stay. It was our first visit to Albania, and we spent five days in Tirana. We did quite a bit of research before the trip because we wanted something reasonably priced, well equipped, and within walking distance of the city centre. Red Lotus Apartments turned out to be exactly what we were looking for. Apartment A is a good choice if you need a bit more space or plan to work remotely, as it has a larger bedroom and a small office area. Apartment B has a more spacious kitchen, which was nice if you prefer cooking your own meals. Both apartments were very clean, fresh, and comfortable. The location made it easy to explore the city on foot, with the main sights, restaurants, and shops all within walking distance. Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay and would happily recommend it.

My husband and I spent four nights at Red Lotus Tirana Apartments during our trip through the Balkans, and it honestly exceeded our expectations. We’ve stayed in a lot of apartments across Europe, and this was one of the cleanest and best-equipped. The location is fantastic. We were able to walk everywhere, and great restaurants were all nearby. The apartment was bright, modern, and extremely comfortable. The bed was excellent, and having a washing machine was a real bonus. What really made the stay special was our host, Esti. She was very friendly and resourceful. We had rented a car, and Esti arranged a secure parking space for us in a closed garage for an additional fee. It was totally worth it! The neighborhood felt very safe, even late at night, and had a genuine local atmosphere. We’d absolutely stay here again.

I spent six nights here while exploring Tirana and working remotely, and I couldn’t have chosen a better place. At first I wasn’t sure about the neighborhood because it’s a residential area rather than a tourist district. After the first day, though, I actually preferred it—it felt much more authentic, very safe, and everything was within walking distance. I walked to Skanderbeg Square, Pazari i Ri, the Toptani Castle area, and the city’s cafés and museums. I felt completely safe walking back in the evening. The apartment had everything I needed: reliable Wi-Fi, a comfortable place to work, a fully equipped kitchen, excellent air conditioning, and a washing machine. Since I smoke occasionally, it was really convenient to have a private balcony. Esti was an excellent host. Communication was quick from the moment I booked, check-in was easy, and she happily answered all my questions. Before I arrived, she also offered an airport shuttle service at a price that was better than the online transfer companies I had checked. The driver was waiting for me exactly as promised. Esti and her family genuinely care that guests have a great experience. I’d definitely stay here again.

The building looks quite ordinary from the outside, but don’t let that fool you. The apartment itself is modern, beautifully renovated, and much nicer than we expected. Another downside was that finding free street parking isn’t easy in the area.
