Sky Tower Tirana

Sky Tower Tirana, Postmodern building in central Tirana, Albania

Sky Tower Tirana is a postmodern high-rise in the Blloku district, now 20 stories and 74 metres tall after at least four floors were added from 2019/2020. The first two floors hold a 33-room hotel, while upper floors contain offices and apartments, including one owned by writer Ismail Kadare. A rooftop structure originally housed Albania's first revolving restaurant, which was removed during the expansion.

Sky Tower was built in the early 21st century and marked Tirana's shift from communist-era architecture to modern commercial development. The building represents the capital's economic modernization following major political changes.

The tower is known locally as Kulla e Vodafonit, after the telecommunications company. Its first two floors hold a 33-room hotel, and the upper floors are offices or apartments; the writer Ismail Kadare owned one of the flats. The rooftop revolving restaurant, Albania's first, reopened in April 2024 after the 2019/2020 addition of at least four floors.

The tower's facilities are publicly accessible, though the restaurant operates during specific hours. It is helpful to check opening times before visiting, especially if you plan to dine or stay.

The revolving restaurant on the roof was Albania's first; it closed when the tower was raised by at least four floors from 2019/2020, a conversion reported to have been done without a permit and which sparked a dispute between the country's largest parties. The building now has 20 upper floors and is given as 74 metres high.
