We were welcomed by our lovely hosts and instantly felt at home! The room was really clean and comfortable and all the facilities were brand new. The best shower I’ve had in a long time! But the best part of this place was the incredible view over the valley, it was really special. We got to enjoy the view over a delicious home cooked breakfast on the roof terrace. The property was in a great location just a 15 min walk to the main area and bazaar. The whole town is on a hill so expect some uphill walking to get about! Overall fabulous stay and we’d highly recommend to anyone staying in Gjirokaster!

What a place to stay, me and my partner stayed here for a night while travelling around Albania, we were greeted by the lady who ran the place, she was so friendly and such a amazing host and really tried to make us have the best stay possible even tho she speaks little English. The room was so lovely and I have to say I don’t think you can get a better spot with only 5 min walk into the Center, but far enough out to get a peaceful night sleep. The breakfast was so yummy and by far the best one we have had. Would recommend to anyone who is travelling around and couples any day of the week

Unmatched hospitality, such a warm and comforting family, they provided us with such a wonderful experience that I have yet to feel anywhere else. It’s like visiting your parents who live in the mountains, it’s that feeling. The breakfast is phenomenal, with fresh vegetables from their garden, and also served us some fruits when we arrived. The room has some beautiful hand made embroidery, vintage furniture and very comfy beds. I cannot recommend this place enough. The place has a small terrace with a lot of personality, perfect for an evening wine and morning breakfast with an amazing views of the city and castle

Excellent house with mountain views and overlooking the valley .Genuine Albanian hospitality from the family cooking all delicious homegrown food, goats milk from farm to plate. A place to relax meet locals and walk the paths to villages and sacred sites. We loved everything and highly recommend a stay here to get away from the bustle of city life.

Everything was fantastic, this is a brand new place on the outskirts of the old town at a great price. it is very beautifully decorated, just perfect. Our hosts were amazing, so helpful. We discovered that the website with bus information was incorrect and they went out of their way to help us. Her husband drove us to bus on his way to work and checked times in bus office for us and her son who works in Sarande found the information for connecting bus to Hirana from Sarande. All Albanian people we met were so lovely and helpful but this family went over and above to help us.

    We liked everything! This accommodation is an oasis close to all things important in Gjirokaster. It is a clean, comfortable, modern and well equipped apartment. Great outdoor space with a refreshing pool (a rare thing in Gjirokaster). Really nice breakfast. Lovely hosts. This is where you should stay when visiting beautiful and interesting Gjirokaster.

    Great location and lovely host family. Served Raki on arrival, nice size room, had shutters to completely block out the light which allowed me to have an afternoon nap. Family was so kind, they took us the bus stop, they knew more about the bus schedules than the local information centre, bought breakfast for us to take with us. Great location, beautiful view from the shared terrace, close to the action of the main old town & castle, but also quiet. I highly recommend and would stay again.
