Hotel Brilant

Facing the town's harbour front, Center Hotel puts guests within a 150-metre walk of Saranda City Beach. Each has a flat-screen TV, a fridge, and a wardrobe; some add a sofa bed for extra guests. It is a compact stay. Air conditioning runs throughout, and Wi-Fi is free in every room and public area. Staff work the desk around the clock, and valet parking is available alongside standard and street options. Breakfast can be taken in the room. Beyond the beach, Butrint National Park is roughly 3 km off, and the ruins there draw a steady trickle of day-trippers. You can walk to a cluster of bars and restaurants within fifty metres, useful after a day on the water. Corfu International Airport sits 30 km away across the strait, with Ioannina Airport a further 71 km inland. The hotel keeps to plain, practical lines: smoke alarms, keyed entry, and a lift serve every floor, and check-in runs from 2pm to 2.30pm. No pets are allowed. It suits couples and short-stay travellers who want a central base close to the water rather than a resort set apart from town.
