The Wilson Tirana is a set of modern apartments located right near Wilson Square: one of the best areas to stay in Tirana for exploring the city. You’re within walking distance of Blloku, restaurants, cafes, and most of the main attractions, making it a very convenient base.

The apartments themselves are spacious, clean, and recently renovated, with a modern design and all the essentials for a comfortable stay. The check-in process is simple, and the host is helpful and responsive if you need tips or assistance during your stay.

In general, when friends or family visit Tirana, I usually recommend staying in apartments rather than hotels. There are plenty of great options in central areas (often around $40–70 per night), and while many buildings may look older from the outside, the apartments inside are typically newly renovated and very comfortable. The Wilson Tirana is a great example of this.

If you’re looking for more of a traditional hotel experience with reception and amenities, you can check out higher-end options like Tirana Marriott Hotel, Plaza Tirana, or Rogner Hotel Tirana (usually $150+ per night). For mid-range hotels, Hotel Oresti Center or Sar’Otel Boutique Hotel are solid, but overall, I still think apartments like The Wilson offer better value, comfort, and location.

Overall, a really nice and reliable option if you’re looking for a central, comfortable stay in Tirana. In the second photo, I’ve included a map highlighting the best areas to stay in the city: walking distance from Blloku for restaurants, bars, and cafes; Skanderbeg Square for main attractions; and Tirana Lake Park for nature.
