Very lovely hostel with an amazing terrace overlooking the castle and the valley. Very comfy room, where each bed has a curtain for more privacy. Also it had a balcony with a great view of the castle as well. Clean bathroom and shower. Friendly owner. Perfect location just 5 minutes from the center. Super recommended!

They are an incredibly nice and hospitable family! They treated me like a daughter or family member. If you want to experience Albanian hospitality and generosity, you should stay here. The owners are so kind; they even took me to the doctor when I fell in the bazaar. They are also great cooks, and I was lucky enough to be included in a family barbecue. If you want to experience true Albanian hospitality, choose this guesthouse. The room is also very quiet, and there is a lovely garden too.

All hostels in Gjirokastër

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
