Top 5-Star Hotels in Skopje

Dominating the Macedonia Square, this hotel is the best in Skopje. Stunning exterior, extremely elengant interior with Minotti furniture and Flos lighting items. I stayed there for 3 nights and everything went well: 1- The location is perfect! Right in the heart of Skopje. From there, you can walk to the Stone bridge, Mother Theresa house. Most of the museums are located within walking distance from the Marriott. 2- My room was amazing. Spacious and very clean. I think I booked the Deluxe room, but was upgraded to the Junior Suite or sthg. So in addition to the big bed, there was a seating area, and a balcony with a small dining table for coffee. Toilet was also spacious and water was perfect. 3- Spa: I only used the indoor pool, but I saw ppl waiting for their massages, and the place looked fancy. 4- Staff: literally everyone was amazing! Every single one of them, especially Sanja. She was very helpful, polite and friendly. 5- Prices were very fine, given that this is a 5-star hotel. You pay this amount for a 3 or 4 star-hotel in other European cities. I highly recommend this hotel for those wishing to visit Skopje.

The room we had was very small, the standard room photos on the website is definitely misleading except for maybe one, then it also looked bigger than it was. Little room to set up a 2nd suitcase and that was on the floor between the table and wardrobe. The room was really designed badly. When you close the drapes, they cover the aircon unit so you have to bunch up the drapes and sit them on top to get air. There are two power points which sit above the headboard so you have to balance what you're powering on the headboard (ok for mobiles but nothing else). There is a kettle but no plug nearby so we had to use one just above the skirting in the passageway and sit the kettle on the floor. There was satchets of coffee mix and 2 green tea bags that was it. No spoons, no milk. The bathrooms heated hand rail was dripping creating a pool of water on the floor. The shower doors (which had disintegrating fittings) didn't meet therefore leaving more water everywhere after a shower leaving the floor very slippery and dangerous. There were two towels, no handtowels, no bath mat. No makeup mirror which even the small hotels have. We ended up putting our towels on the floor to mop up the water and get around without slipping. The box of tissues actually contained some folded narrow sheets resembling toilet paper. On the positive side, the location was good, our dinner was tasty however the breakfast was crowded and disorganised and with little choice. This hotel is supposed to be 5 star. I think they gave this to themselves because it was no where near that level. very tired and neglected. Would definitely not recommend.

These weren’t met except by the reception staff who were excellent. The hotel is in a great location just off the bazaar. The bed and room was comfortable but the bathroom door was glass, the bath lacked a shower curtain and was really high to step up in to. Downstairs lobby has been modernised but the 7th floor where breakfast is was set up like a wedding/function venue with large tables. There weren’t many guests eating when we were so easy for us to get a table for six to ourselves.Full range of cold/cooked/ cereals/breads/cake/ delicious fruit. Swimming pool in summer is deceptive as it feels almost too hot in the room so put us off a bit. But the water was lovely and cool. Quite small so just for gentle paddling and bobbing about not for doing lengths. The shaded part of the roof top bar was closed for a separate function so there was nowhere to sit in the shade, so never tried it. Worth going up for view of the city though but a shame as it’s one of the things that attracted us to chose this hotel. Taxi from bus station was 110 dinars, just 5-10 minutes away. Try and find ‘tea street’ in the bazaar in the evening, great place for people watching with an iced coffee. It’s parallel to the hotel street about 2 or 3 streets into the bazaar. 3 hours from Skopje by bus to Ochrid town/lake. Well worth a couple of days in each place. Also did Free Walking Tours Skopje which was great and I’ve left a separate review for. Skopje is a fascinating city to visit. Ottoman history and culture north of the river, Balkan culture to the south.

Everything was perfect, the only thing I would say it's to improve the quality of the room service food it was very bad. Spa, Jacuzzi, sauna and Turkish bath and the massages were amazing. Breakfast was very abundant.

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.

Stayed on business for five nights and I was overall suitably impressed by the hotel. It is modern and comfortable and my room was large and stylish. There are some nice design touches like the bright red Smeg fridge, some funky furniture and a big shower/wet room, which was amazing! However, the tap on the sink did come off in my hand! It has probably one of the best hotel gyms I have seen, with lots of modern kit and equipment and clean, airy workout areas. Breakfast was really good and the food in the main restaurant was also excellent. There are a couple of bars, which again, are comfortable and modern, with a nice atmosphere. Good selection of drinks and reasonably priced for an upscale hotel. The immediate surroundings look a bit drab, right next to the sports stadium, but the City Park is within a couple of minutes walk and is a pleasant area and it is possible to walk in an easterly direction through the park for 10 minutes or so, to a more lively part of town, with a selection of bars and restaurants. Incidentally, eating out and drinking is not expensive at all. We found several restaurants serving tomahawk steaks for £20 - £25 and a large beer is less than £2. It is a short taxi ride or a 25 minute walk in the other direction, towards the central city locations and the Old Bazaar, which are worth visiting. The city centre is surprisingly lively and picturesque, with the Vardar River running through the middle. The Old Bazaar is an interesting place, with it's old, narrow streets, shops, markets, restaurants and bars. In summary, a very good, comfortable and modern hotel, which I would definitely recommend for a stay in Skopje.

The hotel aircon pumps cigarette smoke into the room. The smell is so overpowering that I could not sleep. The front desk says it’s not their problem. I tried to change the settings on the control panel but it made it even worse. The front desk girl was actually very rude and did not offer any solutions.

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.
