Reviews for Rondos Hotel
Review 1:Very nice location,excellent food at the hotel's restaurant and the room was clean and comfortable.Also the view was amazing and the breakfast very good!
Review 2:Nothing worthy to mention.
Review 3:Perfect location, nice beach and amazing food. The cook prepares amazing and very tasty food. I would suggest you to try everything that is in the menu, especially seafood and local food with meat and vegetables.
Review 4:Livadhit beach which is in front of hotel is partially unmanaged and with some litter such as empty plastic bottles, cigarettes, ...
Review 5:An excellent family owned hotel. Owner is very nice and helpful, tried to make our stay as pleasant as possible. Rooms are big, nicely furnished and with nice balcony. Hotel and rooms are very clean, cleaning was done every day. Nice location in a quiet part of Himare, just in front of beach. Nice hotels sunbeds and water is crystal clear with a beautiful turquoise blue color. We will definitely visit again! Even got a little present on our leaving.
Review 6:Bathroom was the worst I have been in a long time, the bed was too short, the television had no channels, the sheets were not replaced and breakfast was disturbed by a large number of wasps.
Review 7:Location of the Hotel, excellent when you are travelling along the coastline to for instance Greece.
Review 8:The very small bath. The free parking was not so sure. The seaview balcony was a bit off exagerration.The noise off the near tavern, too much.
Review 9:The position close to the sea that was unfortunetaly spoiled off the neighboring with a noisy tavern.
Review 10:The room is too small, you cannot open both your suitcases together. There was a small table but without chair. The fridge was very small as well, moreover there is a system with card and chip that automatically switches off the electricity in the room when you go out, so the fridge get defreezed any time, and when we entered there was water inside it and down in the ground. The window, although new, could not be closed (so theoretically anyone from the near other terrace could enter in the room). The elevator seems constantly out of order So it's completely unesuful (there was a closed bed in front of it). The shower is only provided with a curtain. The price is overall not expensive for western standard, but not so cheap for Albanian structures (we found also some historical hotels at inferiors prices). I think they had economized too much in some features of the hotel, while the standard you expect for a new hotel is more. Service acceptable.
Review 11:It's located directly on the stony beach of himare, just crossing the street. Ten minutes walking from the center. The beach chairs in wood are free for guests and this is nice. The wifi is working well and the furnitures seem to be new; the place was clean and there was a bar and restaurant shadowed under a screen in front of the hotel. Breakfast ok.
Review 12:Tiny bathroom. Toilet so close to the wall it was difficult to sit down properly. Breakfast was poor. Eggs were hard and cold. Jam had wasps in it. Fruit was too under-ripe to eat.
Review 13:Good location, right by the beach. Sun beds available on the beach. Good value. Bedroom was modern, and balcony nice.
Review 14:Breakfast isn't great. Service is very slow, although friendly.
Review 15:Great location. Really nice lunch, delicious sardines. The rooms are basic but adequate with a nice balcony.
Review 16:The Shower Room is small (but adequate). There were a few power cuts in the mornings (but they affected the whole town - not the Hotel's fault)
Review 17:The view from the balcony is stunning! Food in the Hotel is also good! Complementary sunbeds on the beach in front! And the town is peaceful but has a pleasant sprinkling of cocktail bars and restaurants! The staff are lovely and extremely helpful!
Review 18:When we've arrived to hotel we has asked the owner whether they have free rooms for next day as well since we have really enjoyed Himare. The owner assured us that of course and that it is a fixed deal where next day he surprised us and not even having the guts to tell us in person, when he saw us he sent us a waiter to give as the "bad" news. Also bathroom was not clean and breakfast was weak
Review 19:The city of Himare was fantastic, but I would rather choose another hotel.
Review 20:The location was perfect. Right across the street from the beach. They had free chairs and umbrellas for their guests. The buffet breakfast was the best I have had in Albania. Friendly staff. Good wifi in public areas. Air conditioning worked great. Very good choice when in Himara!
Review 21:showers a little small, but functional. Breakfast a little basic, but you can order nice omelette's etc. so no problems.
Review 22:the location - a little away from the constant blare of the bars but literally a stone's throw from the beach!
Review 23:There's nothing bad to be said about this place.
Review 24:Great location, helpful and attentive staff, nice and clean room with great view - all in all a very good experience.
Review 25:small bathroom
Review 26:I liked the location of this small hotel and the kind service offered by the owner in a familiar atmosphere. Very good location nearby other interesting places. The hotel restaurant is very good.
Review 27:would prefer hotels to be able to accept credit cards; various bathroom fixtures not attached to wall (that said, I will definitely stay here again when visiting the area)
Review 28:Excellent location across from the beach with nice sun-loungers, powerful a/c, spectacular balconies overlooking both ocean + mountain, ten-minute walk to downtown, and consistently effective wi-fi.
Review 29:WIFI in the room was on/off all the time Language barrier with ordinary staff
Review 30:Hospitality from the owner family, took care of our son while we ate Closeness to the beach with own chairs
Review 31:Great stay .. excellent food, clean rooms, friendly atmosphere and the owner, Roberto, has proved a friend. I felt at home. The location is convenient to reach the most beautiful beaches in the South of Albania. I will certainly return. Claudio ,Italy
Review 32:Only downside was a very small shower with a curtain you got tangled up in. Small bathroom but that seems common in Albania.
Review 33:Good location on the main road in Himare. Easy to park (May 2015). The hotel is right opposite the beach and only a short walk into the centre of Himare for a good choice of bars and restaurants. Hotel staff are helpful and friendly. Excellent breakfast. All good value. Would stay here again.
Review 34:Nothing
Review 35:Beautiful comfortable room facing the sea, staff wonderfully friendly and helpful. Excellent restaurant, fresh fish. Nowhere could a fault be found. We will be back
Review 36:Nothing!
Review 37:The orner Washington vers friendly and helpful, prepared vers good, as we wanted. Nice, Big balcony with a wonderful wiev over the Sea. The wi-fi Washington very good downstairs and in the garden. Cheap pricesM
Review 38:Nice hotel right next to the beach with big balconies. It's clean, comfortable and 2 minutes from the beach which is really great. To walk to city center it's roughly 15 mins.
Review 39:Wifi not great but ok if you sat in one corner of the room.
Review 40:Lovely sea view, spacious room, great balcony. We came at the end of the season so it was very quiet. Good breakfast.
Review 41:there was a wedding next door- so a lot of noise; but people need to celebrate :)
Review 42:Very pleasant stay. Excellent view from the room, large room, very good breakfast, nice owner
Review 43:weak wifi signal
Review 44:new renovated; across the street to the beach; delicious food prepared by the owner; very nice sea view from the balcony; great place to go!
Review 45:Shower is small but that is true almost everywhere in Albania.
Review 46:The Rondos Hotel was a nice, family-operated hotel right on the beach in Himare. The view from the balcony faced the ocean. For the price, I couldn't have asked for more.
Review 47:Really nothing but towels not changed that often but maybe we didnt get the "code" how to ask for it. We stayed at the third floor. No elevator in hotels in Himara we were told. Could be a problem for some people.
Review 48:Location, just cross the street to free sunchairs of theirs. Staff friendliness incl the Owner and his family, Good food is served and fast.
Review 49:Nothing to disturb a wonderful vacation. Asgje per tu permendur ne vecanti.
Review 50:Very good hotel , very nice staff , very clean , good rooms , excellent food , wonderful sea view and nice beach ,everything OK for a beach hotel. Near to Himara center but in a very calm location. Hotel plazhi sh I mire , pamje nga deti , staf I sjellshem , dhoma ta pastra , cadra dhe shazllone ne cmim dhe plazhi 30 metra larg. 10 min larg nga qendra e Himares .Gjithashtu ushqimi ne hotel shume I mire.
Review 51:The smell of cuisine is everywhere in the air within the hotel. An in-room wi-fi connection would be fine.
Review 52:Great location, just in front of the beach. The room had a wonderful balcony directly on the sea. Great food: simple but tasty and genuine cuisine at the hotel. Great staff, very friendly and pro-active to guests. We have had a very pleasant and relaxing stay at Rondo's Hotel in Himara. Thank you, Mr. Robert, we will come back.
Review 53:While the rooms with the sea view seems better, at the end they are just in front of the Street. If you can and you need quiet space to sleep - consider the mountian view one. If the noise is not an issue - Sea view will be perfect.
Review 54:+ Hotel is quite new - you feel it and see it once you pass the first stair inside. + Air conditioning works fine + The rooms are spacious and comortable, especially the bathroom comparing to other part of Albania I have visited is really okay. The courtain is long enough to keep the bathroom clean while taking a shower. + Breakfast is fine however a bit boring if you stay longer. + The location when it comes to Himare is also perfect -still not so noisy as a bit far away from the city Centre (5-10 walking).
Review 55:We had 2 rooms there. 1 in the backyard and 2nd with the sea view - it looks like a sea view room is better - but be carefull. It is whole day posted at the sun you must use air codnition and is just on the street side also which makes it difficult to sleep if you open the window. If you need a quiet space for sleeping like I, then take the mountain view. The breakfast was every day the same.
Review 56:The hotel is new. You feel it and see it. Hence the stay is very positive. The rooms are spacious and clean. Air condition works perfect. Wifi works perfect. Location is very good - in 5-10 minutes you can walk to the centre and still being a bit far away from the main noisy part of the town. Hotel has own parking and part of the prviate beach with parasol and beach chairs. Is located 50m from the sea. Has good lcoation in the Albanian Riviera for furher sightseing to Sarande or Ksamil
Review 57:The terrible coffee at breakfast, although of course you could pay and get a proper one, a little cheeky really! Shower was a bit small but ok.
Review 58:Great to have free reserved sunbeds on the beach directly opposite the hotel and plenty of parking. Breakfast provided a good selection and seemed to be topped up frequently. Room and balcony were nice. Short walk to the centre of town but makes it a little quieter which was good.
Review 59:- very noisy during the night (neighbours)
Review 60:- location close to their private beach - Nice restaurant (the other restaurant in Town, 15 min walk) - A terrasse with a seeview
Review 61:We had no light in the bathroom, the breakfast was alright but uninspired (order your coffee at the bar!) and the hotel staff was plain and bored. The hotel is very noisy. We think the hotel was fairly overprised for Albania.
Review 62:Its a ok and clean room and the cleaning ladies were very kind. The hotel is located at the beach, with a private beach.
Review 63:It would be very good to have a coffee machine at breakfast. Although we were given machiatos by the manager, the standard serving of coffee was very inferior. A bit noisy at night, but it did quieten down later.
Review 64:Location close to the beach. The manager was excellent and really helpful. He made sure we had an excellent breakfast, and made sure we had all we needed. Excellent parking, wifi fine, really clean, strong aircon, large room, and balcony view to the sea was excellent.
Review 65:small misunderstanding regarding a hairdryer that we requested before we arrived, mostly do to language barrier.
Review 66:Very clean, Incredible location across from beach with chairs reserved for hotel guests. Rooms are clean and basic, not much personality in the decorations, but for a beach hotel, its fine! Very nice owner who really helped us and went the extra mile to make us feel welcome.
Review 67:the hotel is run by a family and basically the daughter manages all the administrative procedure as she seems to be the only english speaking person. You can't pay with credit card and the breakfast was pretty poor. Also the rooms were too small. we had booked a three persons romms and there were only one small and another bigger bed. Wifi was not available in our room, only in the lobby. There were only Albanian TV channels.
Review 68:it's about twenty meters to the beach and there are restaurants and small shops around. parking is for free.
Review 69:A couple of things didn't work. Shower was not hot in the morning.
Review 70:Clean functional room with A/C, balcony with great view. Staff were very helpful and even cooked gluten free bread to suit my diet.
Review 71:-Bad coffee -bit noisy room - owner bit grumpy for own staff, showing in front of customers
Review 72:-Great restaurant food -owner picked us up at busstop and helped us on next bus when we left -private beach with decks
Review 73:Small/narrow double bed. No. Reading lights.
Review 74:Good location right across from the beach. The hotel provides sunbeds and umbrellas and the beach was not crowded during our July stay. Fairly big balconies. Comfy beds. Ok breakfast but nothing to write home about. English on the low side. Good lunch restaurant.
Review 75:There is no 24h reception as was stated in the posting, which made it difficult to locate staff when needed.
Review 76:The room was very nice and very clean. We had fantastic balcony view. The staff was very friendly and kind, and extremely accommodating to guest requests. Directly across from the beach. Quiet and relaxing area with umbrella and lounge chair provided on the beach. The food (especially seafood) was delightful. The overall experience was great value for our money and we have already recommended Rondos Hotel to several friends.
Review 77:Cleaning of rooms varied each day, staff are reactive as opposed to proactive, breakfast very repetitive.
Review 78:Perfect location, comfortable bed, free sunbeds on beach, good wifi, great balcony view, restaurant is very nice for dinner
Review 79:Toilet and bathroom were small.
Review 80:The location is great. Next to the sea and the balcony over looking the sea. Roberto the owner was very helpful, it was a quiet place since a bit out of the center but that was a very short walk to the town. Place is very nice and the restaurant was really good, the food was great and cheaper then in the town. The sun chairs on the beach were included in the price. Overall we loved it! We will be back.
Review 81:This is 10 mins walk from centre of Himare, this may put some people off, but we didnt mind an evening stroll.

Review 115:Rondos is directly across from the sea, just a few minutes walk out of the noise of town center but easy to reach.

Review 118:Like in most Albanian hotels, there's no warm water in the morning,because of suncollectors. Later on the day it's no problem!
Review 119:Roberto is the greatest cook on earth! Also for veggies like we. Hesurprised us every day again with his hospitality and his cookings. Heis extremely friendly and helpful. One of the few days it rained inAlbania, he offered us an umbrella.... Sooo kind!
Review 120:the staff must improve. some of them are friendly and speak good english, but most of them are in trouble with the language and seem unaware of what they should do with customers. as we arrived we could hardly check in (a young member of staff had little idea how to do it!); some of them seem not to know how to refill the coffee kettle at breakfast.
