Hotels near Porta Macedonia aka Gate Macedonia in Skopje

I stayed on business for several days and can only say positive things. As a Hilton member I was allowed an early check-in, I was upgraded to a nicer room and breakfast was included complimentary. The hotel looks a little dated from the outside, but inside it is excellent: modern, clean and very well kept. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The breakfast does not offer a huge variety, but it is more than adequate and everything is fresh and well presented. The restaurant also offers a lunch and dinner service with rather extensive menus. The gym is average size but all the equipment one might need is there and it is very well kept. There is also a fairly large pool that stays open until 10pm - a great feature. The hotel is located a 10-15 minute ride away from the center of town but there isn’t much of anything in the immediate vicinity. On the other hand it is quiet and relaxing, there isn’t any noise, so you can rest any time of day.

I would definitely recommend this apartment as it has the best location. 5 minutes away from the bus terminal and walking distance to all the tourist attractions in the city. No amenities but we don’t need any need for it. It will be good if the bathrooms are kept a little cleaner especially in the shower .. the tiles needs a little hard cleaning .. and they do not provide drinking water unless upon request.

I have been at hotel Russia three times. This is a good hotel. Service is good. But last time I've been there, I tried to call reception from room phone about almost thirty times, and it did not work. So I went to reception to talk to receptionist for what I nedeed, and at the end when I told about the room phone, he did not care at all, but he was trying to find a non sense reason. So I recommand to the hotel staff to be more responsible with clients.

3+ star. Room for improvement. I was going to do 3 but felt it harsh. Let me explain. As per other reviews the hotel is often unmanned. Just as well there was WiFi as we were able to correct 2 issues by phone.(check in and power cut) We had booked a twin and got given a double. Given the lack of staff it seemed not worthwhile trying to sort this as well, but this may have made others uncomfortable. We were given no instructions for breakfast, luckily the lady in the morning was able to help and give breakfast coupons (lady was the cleaner?) So all of the above issues could have been solved by reception staff present or better communication. It's saved by being in an amazing location! Very central. And the breakfast (served at a store across the road) was good. (Although not well explained, you choose items from a menu in a healthy food cafe. Omelette or smoothie) We met Goran at the end. Seemed a really nice friendly guy. I think we would have had better experience had he been present. So rated generous 4/5 . But better communication could make it more positive. (I would stay again, as still provided good value)

We had a great stay at Aloha Apartments in late February going into March. We had a choice of rooms when we got there, so chose a bigger one on the ground floor by the pool, which was bright, and a nice view. Obviously as it was the end of winter we didn't use the pool or sit in the garden, but for sure in better weather it must be a pleasant place to relax in. The room was very clean and comfortable, with plenty of room. The shower room was great, and there was always hot water, and clean towels whenever we needed from the hallway area. There is the entrance to a well in the room, working, I assume. The top part of it has been made into a coffee table. It's probably the most unusual feature of any apartment we've ever stayed in. Elora and George, who run the apartments, were always very welcoming and helpful with organising very good excursions and supplying a decent local taxi service. The apartments are maybe a mile or so from the city centre along the Vardar river, in an old part of the city. It's easy in the Balkans to mistake old or traditional areas as run down, but it's not, and consequently you have to see past the immediate view to its unspectacular charm: you are staying in a historic area which is more authentically Skopje than the city centre, with all its statues and grand buildings. The apartments are well situated to walk into town, though we usually got a taxi back, a ten-minute trip which costs 100-200 denar - very cheap. I liked the local dogs in the neighbourhood, who came to investigate us each time we came out of the gate, keeping a friendly distance and always strangely quiet. We really enjoyed our stay at Aloha, and highly recommend it, winter or summer.

Really spacious and pretty apartment. Walking distance to city center along the river. Easy check in. Just the toilet wouldn’t flush well when I was staying.

Beautiful venue in an amazing location on the doorstep of the old Bazaar and a 5-minute walk from the main town. The hotel was clean, with friendly staff and the rooms are amazing value for money. To add one of the most comfortable beds I have stayed in We had a breakfast and a dinner both highlight rated but did not have any time to make use of the hotel spa. Would defiantly recommend if you are visiting Skopje to stay at this location
