    The town is beautiful and interesting for its fortified houses. Also is on UNESCO list. The old centre is very pleasant to walk around, it has an atmosphere. Car traffic was quite problematic, the roads between the houses are very narrow and very steep. Also, Google maps did not have good enough background and often led us somewhere where, for example, instead of a road was staircase. The old stone roads were very slippery in the rain ;-) Ono or two night is enought to stay here.

    Albanian thoughts:

    Albanian thoughts: Spent a week here in April 2024 – so many positives … Purely electronic passport gates at Tirana airport – an advantage if low on passport stamp space? Swift bus into town centre. Euros very widely accepted, 1:1 with the local Lek currency. Felt safe, met many great people and enjoyed a lot of raki; wine rather so-so, beer better … Trains are close to non-existent; negotiating the minibus service involves arriving and paying on the spot – found it straightforward; typical price: Tirana to Gjirokastra – 4 hours - £10 ..; saw stunning mountain scenery in last 2 hours, and when crossing the mountains from this town to Sarande port (1hr15, £3.30). Accommodation costs very favourable: enjoyed flats at £9 pppn. From Sarande, easy enough to catch a ferry or hydrofoil to Corfu, as a return airport – ca/ £20 single, 30-60 mins. Albaniatourguide proved a very useful online resource. Looking forward to next trip: apparently 12 degrees even in January …

    Gjirokastra stands as an enchanting and historically rich destination deserving of exploration. If you seek an unparalleled and genuine Albanian adventure, Gjirokastra emerges as the ideal destination to embark upon. Cheap hotels and cheap food prices

    The city is pretty but unfortunately the vast majority of it...

    The city is pretty but unfortunately the vast majority of it is rundown with only the bazaar and some houses being maintained to a level fit for a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and once you go away from the bazaar especially at night it feels really lonely and sad. Gjirokaster has become very touristic in the past few years with the old bazaar being constantly crowded with youths from Western European countries who do not respect the place and openly smoke hashish and get drunk. The road to get to the old town is a traditional stone path that while beautiful is a disaster because it destroys your car's suspension, has very steep grades and if another car comes from the other direction good luck! Because of this and the lack of parking in the old town (even among hotels that advertise having parking) you become a prisoner of the old town. During the summer because of the type of stone the city is built of (also found in the mountain Gjirokaster is built on) it is very hot even during the night making the entire experience very unpleasant. Most museums/attractions are basic and the few English descriptions that can be found are very nationally charged which reminds me more of the rhetoric of the 1940s than 2023. The vast majority of Albanians, even those who work in this "tourism industry" cannot speak English at all or speak it very badly making communication difficult and moreover they are not really friendly with tourists. Gjirokaster like Albania in general is about as expensive as Greece or even Italy while effectively offering a touristic product akin to a 3rd world country. Unless corruption is rooted out, Albanians stop emigrating and the economy and democratic institutions develop I frankly do not think I will ever visit Gjirokaster again.

    The hotel owners was an older couple and they treated us like family! Upon arrival, we were given the grand tour and the Obelisk was only a few steps away. The room was a great size and everything was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was by far the best we had in Albania! The owner cooks everything and they take such good care of their guests! We loved everything about this four room hotel!! Definitely worth a stop just to have care and hospitality of the owners! Thank you!

    Manjola and Nardi are excellent hosts. They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Beautiful garden, surrounded by flowers and amazing scents. Comfortable room for 2 adults and 2 children. Manjola prepares tasty breakfast. We also enjoyed the veranda upstairs at night. Nardi helped us park the car (gjirokastra has very narrow and hilly streets). Location was also great. 5 mins walk to old bazaar and then going uphill up the castle. Great time in gjirokaster!

    Very clean and nice family run hotel. The owner, Maradonna will literally do anything for you; he picked us up from the bus station, drove us anywhere in Gjirokäster we liked, gave us information and got us back to the busstation all for FREE. You just give him a call and he’ll be there, truely an amazing experience and I have the utmost respect for the hard work he and his family put in, make sure to give them a generous tip if you stay here.

    One of my most favourite nights in Albania. The most gorgeous hotel in gjirokaster. Tatiana, the host, was so friendly and helpful and in the morning you get a home cooked breakfast which exceeds any hotel breakfast anywhere - it was amazing. There’s parking available but it’s within walking distance of everything in the town. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be back. Highly recommend staying at this beautiful hotel

We had a free upgrade and had a room with a beautiful fireplace. - breakfast was good and the courtyard where we ate it was even better - the hosts were super nice and made sure that everything was fine during the stay - the location is super nice, about 5 minutes by walk to the old bazaar.

The hotel staff apologised that the balcony was 'small' but it was amazing and roomy enough for two persons with a magnificent view of the mountains AND Gjirokaster castle.
