A gorgeous family run hotel which was incredibly relaxing. The pool was great, the kids spent hours playing in it. The family were all so lovely and went out of their way to help us — giving great advice about where to eat, the best beaches and boat trips to take. They sent us off with loads of food for the kids and great recommendations for stops on our way back to Tirana. Highly recommend, we had a wonderful time.

If we could give this place a higher score, we would. Everything was brilliant and you feel like you become one of the family. From arrival (helping us park the car) to check out, they couldn't have done more. The recommendations that were given were great (boat trips and sunsets) and they booked it all for us! The location is just a short walk to the main beach and the pool / bar area is perfect to chill. You can even walk up to the castle in 15 / 20 mins! Breakfast was exactly what you want. Homemade / fresh produce, served with a smile Rooms were well decorated and very clean. Views from the balcony were great too! 100% recommend. Wouldn't stay anywhere else if we come back to Albania.

We had some problems with no hot water and the hosts dealt with it quickly and got an engineer out to look at the boiler. There's a few wasps around at breakfast but the host did his best to try and chase these away!

Beautiful location. Infinity pool is great to relax in in the heat and has fantastic views. The family who run the hotel are friendly and will use google translate to communicate if needed. Breakfast was self-serve and had a good range of pastries, eggs and bread. Parking is underground under the hotel but is spacious and keeps the car cool. Situated slightly up the bank from the main promenade in Himare (approx 10 mins walk) but this wasn't an issue for us. Hosts helped us order food to the pool as well from a local takeaway which came quickly and was reasonably priced. Room was basic but clean and the AC and wifi worked well and there is a hairdryer in the bathroom. Hosts also could give good recommendations for food and places to go - we ate at Eteki and Piazza and both were great and had a day out at Livadh beach which was around a 10 min drive away. Great stay and would come again!

The only recommendation was that the king suite have more utensils and items to be able to use the kitchen (e.g. kettle, coffee machine, tea towels)

Andrea and family were very welcoming and always happy to help with recommendations. Breakfast was plentiful and tasty, really good variety. The pool is a real plus especially as it was 34C when we were there and about a 1km walk to the main beach. All very clean and well looked after.

Getting in and out with the car was a bit of a hassle but the father will help you out by parking it for you if he's around and you need help. Other than that, there are just some details that could be improved for the price, like having proper (and more) hangers in the wardrobe and water in the fridge when checking in

Lovely host family (very kind father and daughter duo) and very clean rooms. We also really liked the breakfast and it's nice to have a pool with mountain view.

There was a small challenge with the aircondition. The family fixed it within one day and went beyond to support.

Fantastic family hotel. So welcoming and pleasant stay. A lot of help with beaches and restaurants nearby.

Family run accommodation - excellent on every level. Staff fully invested in making our stay memorable - all were warm friendly and very helpful. Restaurant recommendations boat tour bookings pizza delivery - they help with everything. Facilities excellent- pool divine. Walk down the hill into town about 10 mins. Small supermarket 2 min walk. Fun vibrant feel to our stay. A very warm welcome to the Albanian riviera.

Very clean hotel. Good location, 10 minute walk to the centre of Himara. Nice & quiet.The staff were amazing. The most important question would we stay here again......definitely yes. The owner even dropped us off at the bus station, so kind! Highly recommended.

There was very little to complain about with this property, everything was perfect. One very, very small thing was that the shower in a room was slow to drain and could fill up the bottom and spill out onto the bathroom floor; but extra floor towels were provided to soak up the water (but this is just nit-picking, there was really nothing we didn’t like)

This property is amazing. The view and the pool area are incredible and so relaxing. The property is very spacious both inside of the room and around common areas which makes it very comfortable. There is private parking. The breakfast was delicious and fresh every day with lots of variety. The room was cleaned daily by the lovely and kind cleaning staff who were also around the property all day, and really add to the family atmosphere as they are always welcoming and happy to chat. Above all, the family that runs the property are what make it such a nice and comforting place to stay. They embrace you into their family with open arms and really easy to spend time with. They offer guidance and help not just with tourist attractions but with providing anything that can make your stay there easier. Andrea was attentive and kind, offering fruit from the family garden and ensuring that we had everything we needed. Moreover, it was the meaningful conversations with each of the family members throughout our stay that would ensure we return back.

Airco in 1 room was not properly working. The airco started up but did not cool the room.

Very nice swimming pool with a great view and bar!! Walking distance from Himare center was OK. Very friendly host, we enjoyed the offered house Raki. Easy private parking. Good breakfast on the terrace with the same great view!

Andrea is a wonderful host. She ensured we were comfortable and all our needs were met. She even gave us plums, to eat, from the family orchard. The beds were comfortable, and breakfast was great.

The Compromise for the beautiful view was that the hotel was a little walk out of town and a hill climb up. This did not bother us though.

Views, pool, breakfast, owner was a real character and loved sharing raki shots with you.

Lovely rooms, great pool, run by a charming family. Really great hotel. About a 10 minute walk into the main town with a supermarket nearby. Lovely breakfast too. Highly recommend.

The place was run by the most lovely family who will go far out of their way to make sure you feel at home. It is situated a bit out of town but the view makes the walk so worth it, absolutely stunning with a lovely pool area. Included breakfast is nice with local and home grown produce.

Everything was great

Our stay at Royal 1967 was wonderful. The rooms were clean and the pool was lovely. Andrea and Fotis were such a delight to talk to and made sure we had everything we needed. I plan to come back again :)

The Ronto family (hosts) were exceptional. There simply is not another word for it. They went above and beyond what a normal host would to accommodate us and look after us during our stay. The pool is beautifully backdropped and always clean. The hotel was a short walk to the beach and main part of town, but ideally situated if you like to stay a little further away from the night time noise like us. Our suite was huge and we couldn't have wanted for anything more really. The whole place far exceeded what we expected of a small hotel in Albania. We would love to return one day!

Amazing hotel, the owners were so friendly and helpful and made you feel at home immediately. The pool was lovely, and the huge terrace was great to relax in. It was about 10 minutes walk into town up a slight hill, but this meant you had amazing views, and it was very peaceful. The breakfast buffet was amazing, with freshly made items each day. The room was a great size with a very comfy bed. There was an underground carpark to put our hire car in.

Maybe the only thing is that the curtains were a bit thin, so the room was quite light in de morning.

Beautiful hotel with great views, great pool, great staff, great service and great breakfast.
