That I had to leave after such a short stay.

The hospitality was above my expectations. The hotel is new, fresh and very clean with lovey views from the rooms and the breakfast room. The breakfast was plentiful and catered for everyone and if something wasn't there then all you needed to do was ask. The hotel was away from the hustle and bustle which suited us fine as it was just a short stroll away, having a secure underground car park was a bonus.

Spent 3 days in the Queen’s Lion: Wonderful hotel with great facilities, good location and cool infinity pool. On top, what made it even more memorable was the hospitality of the staff, loved the passion and professionalism with which they run the business. Definitely would recommend

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return! We had a double bedroom with a sea view and it was really comfortable and clean with plenty of space. The view out over the sea was beautiful and the rooftop pool and bar were fantastic with a wide range of drinks. Staff were welcoming and friendly and really helpful when asking for advice. The hotel was situated in the quieter end of the strip, but you could easily walk to the main part in about 10 minutes, with several shops and restaurants within a couple minutes too. Breakfast had a really good range of options, the chocolate & biscuit pancakes being my favourite! There was also free parking underneath and Santa Quaranta beach on the opposite side of the road was a lovely beach too.

The Queens Lion was a great stay, we were fully accommodated for by very kind and friendly staff. The service was great, breakfast was delicious and the rooftop bar and infinity pool was a bonus. The location was ideal. We could walk comfortably into main Sarande, yet had everything we would need within moments of the hotel as well and a very relaxing area. Would recommend hiring a moped from nearby to explore the wider area as well, including Ksamil and tourist favourites. Thank you for your hospitality, we will highly recommend to friends visiting Albania moving forward.

There was absolutely nothing we didn’t like. Literally everything was incredible – we couldn’t pinpoint a single flaw. We highly recommend the Queen’s Lion Premium Hotel and look forward to returning!

We had an incredible stay at the Queen’s Lion Premium Hotel! The highlight of our experience was definitely the beautiful infinity pool – the views during sunset were absolutely breathtaking. The cocktails by the pool were fantastic as well, and we were blown away by the quality of service throughout our stay. The staff were incredibly friendly, always going above and beyond to make us feel special and help with any requests we had, no matter how small. It felt like a very personal experience, and we truly appreciated their attention to detail. The breakfast was another standout. The variety and quality of the food were excellent, with something for everyone to enjoy.

The restaurant was amazing. We are there for all of our meals, which is quite rare for us. Shrimp linguini in particular blew us away.

Brand new, very clean hotel, awesome views, John and his team are available for whatever you need. Great rooftop bar!

The hospitality at the hotel was unparalleled! John and Blerta made our vacation with their kindness and attention to detail. The facilities at the hotel are new and well thought for maximum enjoyment. This hotel was recommended to me by a friend, and I will echo that sentiment. If you are seeking a clean, friendly, and luxurious at-home feeling, I highly recommend to come and stay at the Queen's Lion. Grab an Aperol, relax by the infinity pool and enjoy the amazing Albanian sunset. Give John and Blerta my love while you are there!

Although the pool was great, the VERY LOUD techno music in the afternoons was at nightclub level and we found it unbearable, hence us making use of the mornings when the music was at a more tolerable level. Perhaps other guests like the loud music, but just beware if your preference is for more peaceful surroundings. We were not made to feel very welcome on check in and the staff service continued at this level. As the lift was being used on our return after an excursion, we decided to use the stairs. After a pointed "Good evening' from the guy ion reception we were questioned where we were going, when I replied that we were going to our room, he asked why we weren't using the lift, I had to explain that the lift was in use and that we preferred to use the stairs. I was left feeling that I had to explain why we were even in the hotel - I've never had this before as a guest in any hotel. He was the same one that had checked us in the day before, so it would have been nice if he had actually recognised us!! No tea/coffee/water in the room.

Nice room with a good bathroom and everything was spotlessly clean. The bed was comfortable and we made use of the air con when needed. There was a balcony with lovely views over the sea and Corfu. Although the hotel was on the road, we experienced little traffic noise. The hotel was in a good position at the quieter end of Saranda. Breakfast was good, although there were no English breakfast tea. The rooftop pool was great with lounges and shade and with a fantastic view of Corfu. We made use of the pool in the mornings when it was quieter (see what we didn't like...)

The breakfast was delicious and unique as it featured Albanian specialties like petulla. The staff were attentive and took care of every request. The sea views are fantastic and the rooftop is ideal for sunset food and drinks.

Beautiful locations, position was great in the center of the town. Best choice if you want to relax at the sea or in the beautiful rooftop with the swimming pool. The staff was great, in particular John, Who was always kind and helpful. If you are searching for the best, this is the place in Saranda. Andrea

Amazing rooms with a beautiful sea view overlooking Corfu. The rooms are immaculately clean and provide all the necessary conveniences. The rooftop is gorgeous, offering the best view in Saranda to admire the sunset while enjoying a high-quality cocktail. The staff is well-trained and ensures that your stay is a truly luxurious experience. The food is delicious and excellently prepared. This place truly made a difference in our trip.

With little humour - too much attention only for us 😉

Unbelievably friendly attitude. We have been the only customers (first week of season) and we had complete attention of entire staff, who are btw almost all from one family. They were extremely friendly and ready to fulfill whatever we asked for ❤️

Simply amazing. The hotel is brand new, the staff is kind and goes above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. The room was very comfortable, breakfast was good and the rooftop pool with bar were great (good cocktails too!). Their chef is also amazing. We have travelled around Europe quite a bit over the last 10 years and there are lots of hotels that can learn something from this place, highly reccomended!

This was our first visit to Albania and we booked this hotel as it looked like the ideal place to stay in Saranda. I mean this when I say it, I have never had an experience quite like the one at the Queen Lion Premium Hotel. First of all the hotel itself is immaculate by design, it's modern, stylish, and clean with a lot of thought going into making the hotel as welcoming as possible for its guests. The sea view room is stunning, we had breathtaking views of Saranda Bay, Corfu and the beach below us. The room is beautifully designed with a large balcony to enjoy the sunset and sunrise. The hotel boasts a clean rooftop pool with sun loungers, a perfect spot to spend your mornings. The food here was also amazing. Every morning we would be served a breakfast buffet. They had everything I could want, from fresh fruit and delicious pastries to hot dishes like omelettes and sausages. We also had dinner at the hotel restaurant a couple of times, which I have to say is some of the best food we had while staying in Saranda. The seafood dishes were especially memorable such as the seafood linguine these dishes were fresh, flavourful, and beautifully presented. Thank you, chef! The crown jewel of this hotel however is the staff and hotel owners. This hotel is run by the most caring, thoughtful and welcoming people we have ever met. Any questions we had were answered quickly and with no fuss. They would always be available and were happy to help at any time of the day. We would recommend this hotel based on the owners and staff alone. We felt like we had been welcomed into their family for the duration of our stay and we are incredibly grateful to them for making our stay in Saranda a special one. You are all a credit to the Albanian people and should be enormously proud of your staff and business. We would not want to stay anywhere else in Saranda! Thank you, Jonny and the family for a memorable stay and we wish you all the best in the future. Mark & Zee

Warm friendly service from all staffs at site, location was just what we wanted it to be, close proximity to the city and restaurants, beaches but not too close where it is noisy. Clean hotel, spotless. Great room, lovely balcony facing the ocean, bathroom was perfectly planned. Comfy bed & stay. Breakfast was good, sort of a typical Albanian breakfast with fresh fruits, coffee/tea/OJ. Great hospitality from the staffs, we also had dinner at the restaurant, it was perfect, had seafood linguine and grilled shrimp, loved the presentation and the taste. This hotel is everything i was hoping for on this trip, a peaceful, Clean, efficient stay. The rooftop bar and Pool was top notch as well, we spent most of our time there enjoying the drinks and a swim on a hot summer day. Cant wait to return! Will recommend to everyone🤍🩵
