Tias Hostel

The people made this experience! The staff are super friendly and create a warm laid back atmosphere. Serving group dinners every night in the outdoor court yard really helps you mingle with other guests all of whom were wonderful. We went on the 3 day trip which included the Valbone to Theth hike including the Shala River and it was AMAZING. Cannot recommend it enough. Everything was arranged for you, transfers, accommodation but it is self-guided. Perfect balance.

Nice, clean Hostel next to city center.

It’s a big hostel but quite home-feeling with the garden for dinners and hanging out. The location is convenient and their 3-day mountain trip is amazing, would recommend!

This hostel is great. The owners are amazing and clearly put so much attention and care into the hostel to ensure that ever guests feels welcomed! The breakfast is a nice way to start the day but the dinner is really what made the hostel for me. It was always a homemade traditional meal and it was an excellent opportunity to meet other people at the hostel.

A really central and clean place to stay last minute in Shkoder. We had a private room and were assisted by the staff to move into our room on the 3rd floor. They were also very generous and understanding with their help booking a transfer to Himare the next day considering one of our friends was sick. Only negatives were that the shower was cold and breakfast was pretty small compared to meals I’ve had included in other hostels.

The hostel owners were lovely, so helpful, and the hostel itself was very clean and nice. Dinner was great

Amazing staff, made my trip!! Dinners and breakfasts were lovely - a great lowkey hostel

Amazing hostel! Staff were super helpful and kind. Helped us plan our hike and even let me borrow a backpack!

Class hostel, would highly recommend. They book the whole Valbone-Teth hike for you and make it very memorable.

Tias is the honestly the best hostel we have stayed in in a while. The staff are so lovely and are so accommodating! Would deffo recommend the hike from Valdona to Theth - thanks Tias, you guys are so great and we will back :)

Had the greatest time at Tias Hostel, the volunteers are such great people! They will help you the best they can with anything. Did the hike Valbonë-Theth organised by Tias Hostel and it was the most magical experience I ever had. Loved every minute of it! Will definitely be making my way back over here. Lots of love, Rico

I had the best experience at Tia’s. The owners are very generous and helpful. They cook a delicious breakfast and dinner for everyone daily. Everything was very clean. The facilities were great. I highly recommend doing the Valbonë-Theth hike. Tia’s will handle all the logistics including transportation, accommodation, and meals. The value of the hostel is excellent. My stay would not have been the same if not for the volunteers. Callum, Michelle, Case, and Gordon were the best.

I absolutely loved my stay at Tia's Hostel! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the dinner every evening is a great way to meet and connect with people. All the volunteers are incredible - so friendly and helpful - and the owners are just as amazing. Highly recommend!

Wonderful hostel, I would come again. Good atmosphere, really nice volunteers and they provide free breakfast and dinner ;)

Stayed at Tias hostel before and after the hike from Valbone to Theth. Was a super nice vibe, everyone was so friendly and it was really social which was nice. Gordon also helped us check in and out and was very helpful.

Highly recommend incredible staff, and free breakfast and dinner can’t go wrong xx

Overall it was good. Very spacious and good common areas. The staff, however, were new and not super knowledgeable about the area. The ‘free breakfast’ is only 2 small biscuits, jam, and a small piece of watermelon or fig and a very small piece of French toast. I would not even call it a snack. If you are counting on the free breakfast I wouldn’t book this place.

Tias Hostel in Shkodër was a great stay – the beds were really comfy, the atmosphere was friendly with lots of good people around, and the staff were super helpful and welcoming. Perfect place to relax and meet fellow travellers!

Loved my stay at Tia’s hostel! Super friendly atmosphere, free dinner and breakfast every day, staff were super helpful with booking tours and buses (especially Casey!), and rooms were always clean. Great hostel all round.

C’était super sympa !
