Hotel Nartel Review | Pristina, Kosovo
📍 Location: Hotel Nartel, Pristina 10000 A bit dated in appearance, but just one block from the main road and a 5-10 min walk to the bus station (handy for international buses!). 🛒 Nearby Amenities: A large supermarket right next door (though with limited fresh produce—I mostly checked banana prices 🍌). Prices comparable to Lidl in Germany, and they accept cash in euros. 🏨 The Room: Old but functional—including breakfast (the best deal I could find at the time!). No heating, just AC 🥶 (it was chilly when it rained—maybe the central wasn’t on yet?). ⚠️ Political Sensitivity Note: The friendly front desk staff are very pro-Kosovo—avoid discussing Serbia unless you want awkward tension. They warned me that re-entering Serbia after Kosovo could be risky (even with a multi-entry Schengen visa). Some travelers have been denied. But I risked it anyway (since my flight was from Serbia)—and made it through fine! (Though going Kosovo → Serbia is trickier than the reverse.) 🍳 Breakfast Bonus: The best spread I’ve had on this trip—way more variety than expected! #Pristina #Kosovo #BudgetTravel #BalkanAdventures
