I loved the view of the terrace and very kind people working in the hostel. Perfect if you need to do remote work, relax and enjoy town vibes. Room 2 and 3 have fantastic view from the balcony too!

The owners are such kind people who made our stay so beautiful by welcoming us as if we were part of the family! They were taking care for everything we needed (you can wash your clothes for free), brought fruits and drinks, and even surprised us with an incredible dinner with lots of laughter and exchange using different languages in order to understand each other. It was more than special and I fully recommend. Thank you very much!

It's a family run business. They are all 3 very welcoming and do their best to help you with all your needs. It moved me having such a warm smile and welcome after a long day on the road. The location is right in the heart of the old town. The place is clean, tidy and neat.

The location was excellent, located only 10 minutes walk from the city centre. The hosts were really nice and accommodating people. The place itself was very clean and had everything.

The stay at Hostel The Old Gate was amazing! The moment I arrived, the host (Taulant) greeted me with so much kindness and made me feel instantly at home. My room was spotless and cozy, with a balcony that opened to the most breathtaking mountain views, I could have sat there for hours. Breakfast was simple and delicious with homemade honey made by the owner, the perfect energy boost before wandering through the streets of Gjirokastër’s Old Bazaar as well as the Ali Pasha Bridge (aquaduct), both sites are located not far from the hostel. I loved relaxing on the terrace in the evening, surrounded by the peaceful garden, the host offered some homemade rakia and gave some nice suggestions for visiting in Gjirokaster and other places in southern Albania. Everything about this place felt authentic and welcoming. Without a doubt, I’d come back here again, it’s one of those rare places that makes traveling feel special.

Very nice typical hostel in a house with many terraces to enjoy the views. Very close to the old town, the castle and the mountains. Fully recommend for backpackers!

The place was great! The owner and his family are doing a great job with their business. They made me feel like being at my own home! I am also working as a digital nomad and the owner made sure to create my own spot, where I can work in peace.
Generally, these guys make everything possible to make you feel welcome and I home. I definitely recommend it, if you go to Gjirokaster, It's ine of the best hostels I've been ao far
