Loved our stay
Pros:

Our first night in Albania & what a fantastic start! The wonderful warm welcome by Aleksandro, gold stars for his hospitality, beautifully appointed rooms, comfortable beds, welcome wine to enjoy whilst soaking up the amazing views. Position is excellent, short stroll to the old town, castle is a 5 min walk, wish we could have stayed longer. Thankyou, we will certainly recommend to our friends 🙏🏼

Cons:

Everything was fantastic

Prachtige locatie, fantastische kamers, schitterend personeel!
Pros:

Prachtige locatie. Uniek uitzicht.
Net buiten de drukte en dicht bij alles bij.
Beste kamers van de hele reis.
Heerlijke bedden, top sanitair, enorm goede ontvangst.
Alexandros spreekt perfect Engels en is super behulpzaam.
Volgens mij de beste kamers in Gjirokaster.

Cons:

Dat we ze moesten verlaten 🙂

Charming, Comfortable, Idyllic
Pros:

We had a lovely stay here - the hotel has been in the owner’s family for several generations and he recently opened the property to guests. The historic home is charming and comfortable, well decorated, and perfectly located for exploring both the castle and old town of Gjirokaster. The dedicated parking was also a lifesaver. The staff in particular were delightful - Alexandros went over and above to give us recommendations for the best places to eat and make us feel welcome in Gjirokaster. Would return in a heartbeat.

Cons:

It was perfect.

Beautiful boutique hotel, would come back
Pros:

Staff helped us with parking, carried our bags to the hotel, and even welcomed us with a bottle of wine! Couldn’t have been a better stay. The rooms were stunning and comfortable as well. Short downhill walk to the main town. Wish we honestly stayed longer. Thank you again for your hospitality

very good
Pros:

Good hotel in everyway. Nearby city centre.

Cons:

Routing quit difficult. Maybe describe the route on the website. Google maps is not helping the proper way. The hotel lacks perhaps a bit of character but no complains about facilities. They where good.

Perfect charming introduction to the town - a real treat
Pros:

Beautiful hotel. Integrated premium modern facilities into traditional rooms that retain all their original charm. Fabulous views over the town and the valley. Super helpful and friendly staff. Aleksandro especially charming and helpful.

Cons:

Nothing. We loved everything. Some people may find access difficult due to steep cobbled streets.

Great location, warm hospitality, dreamy room
Pros:

Perfect and stunning location right beneath the castle of Gjirokastër. I was able to park my motorcycle for free and very securely in an inner courtyard. The personal attention was extremely friendly, and the hospitality made the stay something special. The room was a dream — high-quality furnished and lovingly renovated, with great attention to detail. From the two terraces, I had a wonderful view over the city. Highly recommended!

Cons:

There was nothing I didn't like. I honestly have no criticism at all.

Pros:

Cute boutique property. You have to walk down a cobblestone street like most hotels in the old town. But the staff is more than happy to help, they carried our bags and placed them in the rooms for us. Gave us a bottle of wine as a little welcome surprise. Overall a good stay with good people.

Top!
Pros:

Een fantastische kamer, echt heel mooi! De lokatie is ook goed. Even aangeven dat je met de auto komt, dan reserveren ze een parkeerplaats voor je.

Cons:

Echt jammer dat je er niet kunt ontbijten, helaas hebben ze geen keuken om dit te kunnen faciliteren.

Pros:

Alexander at reception could not have been more helpful. He assisted us proactively when someone had parked in the hotel-designated parking spot and carried our luggage all the way to the room. The suite was extremely clean and comfortable. The hotel is a quick walk to the castle and bazaar. It is the perfect place to stay if you are planning to explore Gjirokaster.
