MGallery Opens First Scenic Coastal Hotel in Albania
MGallery Collection has opened its first hotel in Albania. Located between the mountains and the Ionian Sea, Green Coast Hotel – MGallery Collection blends modern comfort with Albania’s rich heritage.
A New Coastal Destination
Set along the Albanian Riviera, the hotel is surrounded by beaches and is approximately an hour’s drive from the new Vlora International Airport, scheduled to open in mid-2025. Guests can enjoy nearby UNESCO sites, including the historic city of Berat, or relax at Palasë Beach.
Design Inspired by Albania
The hotel’s design reflects Albania’s rich history, incorporating influences from the Illyrian, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman periods. It offers 131 rooms, including suites and a Presidential Suite. Rooms feature earthy tones and natural materials, with sea views throughout.
The suites feature local crafts, with details such as Roman-inspired ceramics and handwoven textiles.
Local Cuisine
The all-day restaurant, Mosaic, serves seasonal dishes made from local ingredients, from Albanian plates to Middle Eastern-inspired meals. Mente, the hotel’s reception bar, offers small plates and cocktails, including a signature drink with local Raki, rosemary, and sage.
Guests can also enjoy vineyard tours, cooking classes, and honey tastings.
Wellness and Relaxation
The hotel’s five-floor wellness space offers sea-view treatments, a fitness studio, sauna, and spa therapies. Additional experiences include beach yoga, sunset sound healing, and hikes along the Caesar Trail. There is also a poolside spa with natural treatments.
Signature Experience
The hotel’s signature “M Moment” includes a sunrise paragliding adventure, starting with breakfast overlooking the Ionian coast, followed by a paragliding flight that ends near the historic landmark of the Julius Caesar coin, and concludes with a champagne toast.
Community Support
The hotel partners with local organizations, including UN Women Albania, to promote community development and inclusive tourism.
Events and Meetings
The Green Coast Hotel – MGallery Collection also offers event spaces with sea views, ideal for meetings and medium-sized conferences, complete with catering provided by the hotel’s chefs.
