About Stephen Center rooms

Above its café beside the New Bazaar, Stephen Center has simple, central rooms, popular with travellers who like to be in the thick of things. Rooms are plain and simple, and breakfast in the café downstairs is part of the experience, with American-style dishes and good coffee. The market halls, the restaurants of the New Bazaar and Skanderbeg Square are a few minutes’ walk away. The staff are a good source of local advice for onward travel.
