I stayed at the Swiss Diamond in Prishtina for two weeks in April. I don't think I could stay anywhere else ever as the experience was wonderful. This review is overdue, but I am only now catching up from all my travels.
The hotel is definitely more of an old school ambiance, but that is my preference. The food was above average for hotel standards, and I tried almost everything on the menu. They also have a sushi restaurant attached, which was decent. The pool and spa include two saunas, steam bath, Turkish bath, and ice plunge (for anyone who likes that). Their staff is diligent in maintaining the area at all times for cleanliness. The bar area sometimes has live music, and overall it's a relaxing place to have a drink.
With all five star assessments, I do like to still leave some constructive feedback. For this hotel it would be the following:
- All rooms should have a proper espresso pod machine. Not this powder 3-1 stuff.
- The jacuzzi isn't hot enough.
- The pool area is quite large, and there is plenty of room for families to enjoy the area without disrupting others. Unfortunately, I only found 50% of the families in the pool area to be respectful. There might need to be stricter policies enforced for those with children. I don't blame the kids, I blame the adults without a brain or any regard for basic politeness.
Overall, I loved the hotel, the food, location, pool, and sauna. I will be back.
