Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 10 October 2026 · How we review hotels
Palace Hotel & SPA is suited to spa enthusiasts who want direct beachside relaxation and classical design. It is well liked by guests. Key pros include complimentary access to a full-service spa, sea-view rooms with classical decor, and a private beach area. However, the property is situated outside the main city centre, and guests must expect seasonal crowds on the private beach.
Guests score it 8.7 out of 10 — the average across the 7 hotels we list in Durrës is 9.1.
What Guests Loved
- Guests receive complimentary entry to the wellness center, which features an indoor pool, saunas, hot tubs, and a fully equipped gym for relaxation.
- The property opens directly onto its own private stretch of beach, allowing guests to transition effortlessly from the outdoor pool to the Adriatic sea.
Things to Consider
- Located about two and a half miles from central Durrës, guests will need to rely on taxis or local transport to explore the historic Roman amphitheater and port area.
- During the peak summer months, the private beachfront and outdoor pool can experience high occupancy, though early mornings remain notably peaceful.
