That rooftop bar! Great, spacious room. Fantastic buffet breakfast offered every morning. Staff go above and beyond to assist. Parking can be a little tough, but was doable. The Bazaar only seconds away.

Macedonian vacation

I was impressed with my stay at Hotel Arka. Its biggest asset is the absolutely perfect location, right on the main square and apart of the Old Bazaar. Within easy walking distance of all the major sights and restaurants. The hotel itself is euro modern and impeccably clean. My room was comfortable and well decorated, and I especially enjoyed the excellent and varied breakfast offered each morning. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful, providing great local tips. Parking can be a little hard as the carpark is shared with a few other locations. There is apparently a employee (not from the hotel) that helps locate parking spots. For a central, comfortable, and well run stay in the heart of Skopje, I couldn't recommend Hotel Arka more highly.

Room was comfortable. Staff were helpful and professional. Great location with easy access from road and walk into the bazaar, store, restaurants, downtown squares, etc. Love the outdoor rooftop bar with a great view of the city.

Poolen på hotellet var stängd. Eftersom det var anledningen till att vi valt just detta hotell blev vi förstås lite besvikna. Annars helt okej.

Good hotel next to old town. One of our rooms didn't had working lights at bathroom but it was changed quickly for nearby room. Rooms are specious and comfortable. The view from the roof is superb. Breakfast was pretty good. There is free parking in front of the hotel. If it's full then you can just leave your car keys at reception and they would move it if needed.

The hotel was a but runned down. Heavy wear on many furnitures. I stayed on the 6th floor and The view was amazing. I booked this hotel mainly due to the pool, but it was closed (to early for the season). Breakfast was very good. The parking was full but they moved cars in order to fit me. Very kind.

Great hotel, in a great location. The city is very walkable and this provided an excellent base for a short visit. Great view to contemplate whilst eating breakfast.

Apart from the hotel being in a good location it was a disappointing stay. Upon arriving at our hotel driving through the entry gate did not give off a 5 star impression. Reception staff were poor with the exception of 1 member of staff who helped us with our tv. We had asked 3 times prior without any assistance. Pool was out of order, one of the main reasons we chose this hotel. The curtains in the room let in so much light, we were awake just after 4am, as people who work in agriculture we were looking forward to a sleep in on holiday as every other day of the week we are up early. Breakfast was good

Nice location, nice hotel, horrible staff Avoid it

Hotel is well located but i never see so rude staff in all balkans. The staff never say hello at reception, try to invent silly excuse, try to scam with taxis….i would be really interested to talk with general manager about my stay there. After this stay we stayed in Double Tree by hilton in Skopje and experience was totally different. Its really pity because this hotel could be nice and so on but just need change this lazy staff

Bilseydim kalmazdım!

Otel odasında bulunan banyo kokuyordu. Oteldeki jakuzi ve sauna hem minik hem randevuluydu. Havuz sadece yazın açıkmış. Bunları bilsem asla kalmazdım. Kahvaltı kalitesi orta ayar. Hizmet ve personel kibarlığı:0

Hvis du elsker moskeer, så er dette stedet

Hotellet ligger i et kvarter med masser moskeer. Der kommer massiv larm fra disse på alle tider af døgnet, fx når der kl. 4 om natten kaldes til bøn! Ganske vist ligger hotellet lige ved Old Town, men også meget tæt på et trøstesløst, nedslidt og fattigt kvarter. Skopje er en af de grimmeste byer, jeg har besøgt i verden - kun Bukarest og Chisinau er grimmere! Vores fejl var, at vi tilbragte 3 døgn i byen, inden vi tog ud i de (smukke) bjerge og senere til den flotte Ohrid Sø. Mit råd til andre rejsende er, at man kun tilbringer 1 døgn i Skopje og i stedet udforsker naturen i Nordmakedonien.

Eccentric with both plusses and minuses -a one off

One has to judge things through the lense of Macedonia where in general hotels can be a bit eccentric. but this one is more eccentric than most. Positives are superb location right next to the old town, and huge rooms with great views and the awesome roof bar/terrace. Downsides are fading 80s style and no way this can be described as a 5 star service. Having said that most of the staff were friendly (mention to the good staff at the bar). Nice breakfast. Probably the worst thing was over soft mattresses (not good by today's standards) and the greenhouse effect of so much glass when the aircon was centrally turned off. So rooms were pretty warm. Open the windows and its noisy. Plus we were told no kettle or iron for "security reasons". Really this isnt 5 star service. But hey, overall go for the experience!

Peccato!!!

Ero stato in questo albergo 5 anni fa ed era un soggiorno tutto sommato piacevole. Esperienza attuale é stata pessima per seguenti motivi; -durante la prenotazione era indicato disponibile la piscina coperta. Invece al momento del check out hanno comunicato che fino a maggio non era possibile utilizzarla. -ho prenotato una camera con letto king, mi hanno assegnato una camera con due letti singoli uniti (per modo di dire) che si staccavano in continuazione -essendo un viaggio di lavoro, avevo bisogno di una connessione internet decente. Purtroppo la velocità era 6Mbps download e 1,8Mbps upload con continuo staccarsi. -in camera ho trovato un forte odore di chiuso e tutto era pieno di polvere, sembrava che la camera non venisse utilizzata da tempo -aria condizionata funzionava malappena ma quando si attivava faceva un rumore che ho fatto davvero fatica ad addormentarmi Peccato perché prima era un albergo molto valido, ora non piu…

Ystävällinen palvelu ja loistosijainti

Vastaanoton henkilökunta oli poikkeuksellisen palvelualtis, kaikki toimi nopeasti ja ystävällisesti. Hotellin sijainti basaarialueen tuntumassa oli näppärä - kaikki palvelut ja nähtävyydet oli kävelymatkan päässä. Aamupala oli monipuolinen ja maukas. Huoneemme (juniorsviitti) oli tilava ja mukava. Ainoa huono puoli oli haju - vessan viemärit haisivat huoneessa koko vierailumme ajan.
