Tirana International Hotel, locally known as Pesëmbëdhjetëkatëshi (“The Fifteen-Story Building”), is a prominent landmark in Tirana, Albania. Built in 1979 in a Soviet-era architectural style, and on the site of the Orthodox cathedral, it was originally named Hotel Tirana.
In 2001, the hotel underwent major renovation works by an Italian company, transforming it into a 4-star hotel, featuring 168 rooms across 15 floors.
The hotel is part of a larger hospitality complex that includes the highrise InterContinental Hotel Tirana.
