    This is one of the best hotels of our stay in Albania so far! It is a very quaint, quiet, family run hotel that has all the amenities of a luxury boutique hotel. The decorations are impeccable, the views from the terrace and some of the rooms are breathtaking, and the beds and pillows are heavenly. You CAN’T go wrong if you stay here.

    Trying to find the hotel was difficult. Sat nav not very helpful. Maybe give directions from the main road where hotel is signposted and then super easy to find.

    Located just outside the old town. But easy walking distance. Great views and quiet historical neighbiurhood

    More information on check in would have been appreciated- Fyi: we were not informed that rooms aren’t cleaned unless you ask them to, and that there was a coffee machine available to use. Bathroom - shower: only has half a shower door so the bathroom floor gets wet.

    Lovely hotel, good sized room and comfortable bed. As away from main centre it’s quite too with great views. Located a short walk from castle and old bazaar. Staff friendly and gave advice on where to eat etc. Recommend.

    This boutique hotel delivers big time - stone house renovated to a very high standard but you get the charm of the original building plus all mod cons !

    The most beautiful little boutique hotel with a completely stunning view to the mountains. The interior and exterior decor so nice and with great respect for the originality of the building. Very friendly staff. The location is perfect since it is not located in the middle of the buzzling bazaar area, but only 5 minutes walk away.

    Most roads in the area can be a little difficult to drive along but this comes with having exceptional Accomodation in a special location. Just adding so drivers are fully aware.

    This boutique hotel is one of the best Accomodation I have stayed in. It is beautiful inside and out… gorgeous communal balcony spaces. Located walking distance from the castle and bazaar. Rooms and spaces are of exceptional quality. Would highly recommend to friends and family.

    What an absolute gem! We were traveling around Albania for two weeks and we booked this hotel for three nights, just for a bit of a rest. We were both surprised and delighted by this place. The rooms were extremely comfortable -- the most comfortable bed and best shower we had in Albania -- and the space is thoughtfully and beautifully designed. The staff was beyond kind, always ensuring that we had everything we needed. The hotel was an easy walk to all Gjirokaster's attractions. And at the end of the day, we loved sitting on the patio, enjoying the hotel's sweeping views of the city. Thank you for a fantastic stay!

    Some tips for the owners: A little shelf by the bed would be great so you don’t have to leave your phone/ water on the floor which is a long way down from the lovely big bed. Softer chairs on the terrace would be well received. Overall our stay was 10/10

    Everything about this property is finished to a high spec with great attention to detail. The bed, sheets, towels were top quality and comfortable. It’s a quiet hotel within 5 mins walk to the Main Street. There’s a couple of lovely terraces to sit outside. Owners are lovely and very helpful. We loved our stay here. The hosts recommended the restaurant Furra - although it is on the main tourist street, the food was amazing (pork belly esp, - so much meat and so tasty and the rocket salad) Enjoy your stay

    Perfect place to stay when visiting Gyrokaster. A little difficult to find using google maps, and if you have health or mobility issues, it was a struggle to carry the luggage from the parking place to the accommodation.

    It's a shame that it was not possible to have breakfast at the accommodation but numerous places to eat are only a few minutes walk away.

    The room was superbly appointed offering great views over the countryside. The outside courtyard area was particularly pleasant offering an opportunity to relax and take advantage of the good weather. The bed was extremely comfortable and the room finished to a high standard. The staff were very accommodating and even drove us to the bus station on the morning of our departure.

    The suite covers a small area - as you can see from the property details. It has its own entrance and the shared space is the courtyard. What you see in the photos is what you get.

    The owners are friendly and were there in the afternoon or evening both days we stayed. The property is part of the husband's family home, and family members occasionally passed through the courtyard which was very nice. The courtyard was great and had stunning views. Everything was new and the owners had clearly spent money to create a high quality experience, as is evident from the photos. The location is fantastic.

    The hosts - Linda & Arsi & their staff were very hospitable and helpful. The girls met me at the taxi to navigate the cobbled stone laneway to the hotel, Arsi drove me to the bus when left and the girls checked in on me as I’d been ill —- all very much appreciated! Felt like a home away from home. I loved the location( 5 minute walk to old town), quiet setting & morning serenade of distant roosters and birdsong :)
