Select Hill Resort

The place is amaizing. Although in a low period all the services were opened. Loved the SPA and the indoor pool. We had a room for 1 night, just a getway and we were upgraded for free from the hotel to a deluxe room. The balcony was lovely and we could see the whole of Tirana from there. We had only one meal which was very good and surprisingly affordable for what we had. Lovely experience.

So , 1200 lek taxi from town Arrived at 3pm,Tuesday afternoon , thumping loud Albanian disco music.. ok not my idea of a relaxing afternoon but ... the place looks nice, huge pool , a bridge to cross it, its all very modern , hotel area looks nice, its a huge area of umbrellas and sunbeds ( just like an Albanian beach ) but surrounded by beauriful green forested hills..900 lek to enter ( I'm a girl it's 800 plus towel , boys you pay 1000 lek ) I was shown to a cigarette burnt bed at the back next to the changing rooms and the shower., it was very busy ,I guess. I tried to relax , but thumping music and screaming youths not helpful . Got a drink , waiter helpful, 700 lek and no table ro put drink on.i drank it carefully but still lost 30% when the glass fell over. Finally at 5pm the thrashing waters of the pool subsided , the music became tolerable and I went for a much needed swim. Ahhh... such a beautiful pool but the water was smelly ,not only chlorine but an unpleasant smell and the pool floor was kind of slimy .. after drying off I went to the bar / restaurant terrace , which has a great view and really nice , enjoyed a gin tonic , 1000 lek , and was lucky to find a taxi back to Tirana . 15 min ride , another 1200. Not a cheap arvo, quite pleasant but the unclean pool was a disappointment.. maybe just a busy day.
