Hotel berhampiran Драчево, Skopje

I stayed on business for several days and can only say positive things. As a Hilton member I was allowed an early check-in, I was upgraded to a nicer room and breakfast was included complimentary. The hotel looks a little dated from the outside, but inside it is excellent: modern, clean and very well kept. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The breakfast does not offer a huge variety, but it is more than adequate and everything is fresh and well presented. The restaurant also offers a lunch and dinner service with rather extensive menus. The gym is average size but all the equipment one might need is there and it is very well kept. There is also a fairly large pool that stays open until 10pm - a great feature. The hotel is located a 10-15 minute ride away from the center of town but there isn’t much of anything in the immediate vicinity. On the other hand it is quiet and relaxing, there isn’t any noise, so you can rest any time of day.

We had a great stay at Aloha Apartments in late February going into March. We had a choice of rooms when we got there, so chose a bigger one on the ground floor by the pool, which was bright, and a nice view. Obviously as it was the end of winter we didn't use the pool or sit in the garden, but for sure in better weather it must be a pleasant place to relax in. The room was very clean and comfortable, with plenty of room. The shower room was great, and there was always hot water, and clean towels whenever we needed from the hallway area. There is the entrance to a well in the room, working, I assume. The top part of it has been made into a coffee table. It's probably the most unusual feature of any apartment we've ever stayed in. Elora and George, who run the apartments, were always very welcoming and helpful with organising very good excursions and supplying a decent local taxi service. The apartments are maybe a mile or so from the city centre along the Vardar river, in an old part of the city. It's easy in the Balkans to mistake old or traditional areas as run down, but it's not, and consequently you have to see past the immediate view to its unspectacular charm: you are staying in a historic area which is more authentically Skopje than the city centre, with all its statues and grand buildings. The apartments are well situated to walk into town, though we usually got a taxi back, a ten-minute trip which costs 100-200 denar - very cheap. I liked the local dogs in the neighbourhood, who came to investigate us each time we came out of the gate, keeping a friendly distance and always strangely quiet. We really enjoyed our stay at Aloha, and highly recommend it, winter or summer.

Very close to the center everything is pretty muchb within walking distance

Ideal place to stay if you are on transit. They offer free transportation from and ro the airport, have a nice restaurant and pool to relax. The restaurant is mainly Italian, but we picked the few Macedonian dishes (Shopska salad, meze, cheese platter) and it was more than enough for two. Especially the salad and meze were really great. We asked for bread and got some freshly baked flat bread, very good. The room was also nice, comfy bed amd balcony. But there is nothing to do in the vicinity, you would have to take a taxi or come by car.

A hotel at this level should have the same fundamental elements in all the same kind of rooms but they said they're out of slippers and waiting from the UK. Sheets and pillow were not clean enough for this standart hotel. Although some same kind of rooms have bathrobe or coffee machine some of them don't. They don't serve just one bottle of water for the guests and they overcharge. 1 bottle of water is 0,50 euro on the streets, 1,60 at the bar and 2,70 in the room. They don't provide fundamentals but they're so confident to overcharge for just one bottle of water without any hesitation. 2 elevators but one is out of use for a long time, you have to walk the stairs for 7-8 floors when it's rush. Reception is so slow to organize the guests. Note: only plus is location.

Been here a few times now, and have always been satisfied. During a year since my last stay things have changed. And not for the better . The good stuff: Location right on the walking street, easy walk to everything. Due to my status I was upgraded to a bigger room and received water and fruit, which I appreciate. I was also invited to free breakfast so will not comment on that. What I will say is that the breakfastroom is way to small when the hotel is fully booked and all groups descide to have breakfast at the same time. My room at the 4th floor, has a small balcony, there I found old cups with rotten fruits in it. Wifi was very bad in this room which made it difficult to do my work. Coffee/tea was non existing (apart from the kettle). No tissues and the soapcontainers are so old that they dont work properly. Cleaners had a bad attitude, they did not remove old towels from the floor and toiletpapaper was not restocked. I had one linnen change which had stains . Corridor smelled like sewage. Service has gone down, I think only the young man working in the cafe knows what he is doing, at least he is attentive to his customers. When he was not working, I was just ignored or staff was simply not present. Had two meals which was of bad quality. To sum it up, Best Western Turist will not be my first choice on my next visit to Skopje. I would rate the hotel as beeing 3star.

Bilik itu menakjubkan. Hanya mempunyai masalah kecil dengan AC. Kakitangan sangat ramah. Mereka menyimpan bagasi kami sehingga malam. Ia juga 10-15 minit dari pusat (berjalan kaki).
