Le Palazzine is a solid mid-range hotel located just outside the city center of Vlora, making it a good choice if you’re looking to stay somewhere a bit quieter and more relaxed than the busy Lungomare area.

We’ve stayed here a few times, usually in the shoulder months (April, May, and September) when the prices are especially fair and the weather is still great. Like most places in Vlora, rates may tend to rise in the peak summer months (June through August), so it’s worth booking early if you’re coming then. One of the best things about Le Palazzine is the view. The hotel overlooks what I’d consider to be one of the most beautiful stretches of sea in Vlora. It’s technically possible to walk down to the water from the hotel, but the path is dirty and not well maintained, so having a car is a plus if you want easier beach access or plan to explore nearby.

Rooms are spacious, modern, and well-kept, with cozy beds and a simple, comfortable design. The hotel also has a restaurant that serves good-quality seafood, not the very best in Vlora in my opinion, but a good option if you’re staying in. All in all, Le Palazzine is a great base if you’re looking for a peaceful stay in Vlora with great sea views and easy access to the coast, especially outside of the busy summer rush.
