It was sone electricity problem which was totally not the host problem but they boiled some water for us to take a quick shower still - this is people who care about their guests!

Staying at Symphony Hostel for 40 days was not just an experience, it was a gift. From the very first day, I was welcomed not as a guest, but as part of their family. The owners are warm, caring, and genuinely attentive. They shared not only a roof but also kindness, food, stories, and comfort during both joyful and challenging days. What makes Symphony special is not only the cozy and clean space, the perfect location, or the great facilities, it’s the heart of the people who run it. They take care of you with so much respect and love that you truly feel at home, even if you are far away from your own. I am deeply grateful for every detail, every smile, and every shared moment. Symphony is not just a hostel, it’s a family. And I carry them in my heart. Highly recommended to anyone who wants not only a place to stay, but a home in Shkodër. ♥️

My room and en-suite were super clean, as well as the rest of the hostel. It was super close to the bus stop and downtown, maybe 5 minutes walk. The volunteers were incredibly welcoming, showed me around the city to the best markets and restaurants (shoutout Anti, Tom, Summer, Ross), and the manager was always doing something to make sure the hostel ran smoothly. Highly recommend a stay here!

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.

    This place is really cool. Nice people, quiet neighbourhood with parking outside. We were able to leave our car in their safe off-street parking for a small fee while we were hiking in the mountains. Beers and coffee cheap. They can help with everything for excursions away to the mountains. Excellent hostel!

    This is a wonderful new, family run hostel that should be at the top of everyone's list for a place to stay in Shkodër. It has a great location and a stunning rooftop terrace with gorgeous 360 ° views. The staff are fabulous and if you're lucky, you'll get a chance to taste the owner's delicious homemade wine. With great value for the money, book your bed before word gets around and there won't be any available. One of the best hostels in Albania.

    Price is very cheap so great value for money. Located in the central tourist streets, the safest and cleanest part of the city, even if you do not stay here I strongly recommend staying nearby. Hostel has decent kitchen facilities. All the staff (and the people staying while I was there) were really friendly.
