About our Founders/Co-owners
Best friends Erjon and Rob started Shkodra Hostel in 2020 with one simple idea: show people how amazing their home truly is. Born and raised in Shkoder, Albania, they grew up exploring the region’s nature, hidden gems, and local life, building lasting connections along the way. From representing Albania on the basketball court to representing it through unforgettable day tours, they carry the same teamwork, energy, and pride into everything they do. Today, they share the experiences they loved growing up, creating authentic, locally rooted adventures that support the community and feel more like spending time with friends than tours.
Why Visit Shkoder?
Set between mountains and the largest lake in the Balkans, Shkoder is built for adventure and downtime alike. From hikes and hidden spots to castle views and lake swims, everything feels close and accessible. The city has a relaxed rhythm that invites you to stay present. It’s the kind of place that feels simple, real, and hard to leave.
Come for a bed, stay for the people, stories, and nights you didn’t plan
