Breakfast was very good. Location is superb to explore in foot.

If I want to be picky: the bathroom is very small, though I read about it and it wasn’t a surprise to me. Also, there is no shower door, so no matter how careful I was, the water still spilled on the floor

Good location, a few steps from the Old Bazaar, but far enough from the noise. Room looks freshly renovated. Amazing breakfast, served individually. Omelette, sausage, cheese, bread, cake, cucumbers, tomatoes, olives, water melon, coffee, tea, juice. The family puts heart into service. It broke my heart to see how one of the visitors just came had a juice and left. She could have told in advance that she eats halal and wouldn’t eat anything. So much food into garbage. Be careful if you come by car: if GPS brings you from down the street up the hill do not do sharp u-turn, most likely you won’t manage to do it. I watched quite a few attempts, if you are not local, you will damage your car. Instead drive a but straight and then back up to park next to the hotel or ask a young man there for help: he receives visitors and is very helpful.

Dhoma e rehatshme dhe e pastër – Dhomat janë të pajisura me kujdes, me shtratë shumë të rehatshëm dhe dekor tradicional që i përshtatet karakterit të qytetit. Mëngjesi i shijshëm – Mëngjesi ishte i freskët dhe i shijshëm, me produkte lokale dhe ëmbëlsira tradicionale. Një fillim i përkryer për ditën! Pritja e ngrohtë – Pronarët janë super miqësorë dhe shumë të përfshirë, duke na dhënë këshilla të dobishme për vizitat në Gjirokastër. Qetësia dhe pamjet – Gjendet në një vend të qetë, larg zhurmës, por shumë afër qendrës historike. Pamjet nga ballkoni janë magjepëse! **** Pa dyshim, do të rekomandoja Bed and Breakfast Kotoni** për këdo që dëshiron të përjetojë autenticitetin dhe mikpritjen e Gjirokastrës. Do të kthehemi patjetër 😊😊😊

The room beautifully combines traditional charm with modern comfort. It was exceptionally clean and cozy. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the Old Bazaar. The owners were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel truly welcome. Breakfast was delicious, generous, and a great start to the day.

This bed and breakfast is in a very good location within walking distance from the castle and bazaar with a nice view from the windows. Google maps wasn't very helpful in helping us reach the location and the map provided was difficult to follow however the hosts saved us parking just near the location which was ideal.

Our stay at B&B Kotoni was really good. The map provided to access the property upon arrival to Gjirokaster was a little confusing however once we located the property we had a great stay.

Shower will eventually wet the bathroom floor and toilet (small glass division to contain water). Breakfast was good but lots of industrial things, could be more natural, not close to the bed towns we had in our trip. Somewhat difficult to get to the hotel even with hotel instructions (that could be clearer), since Google maps won’t work accordingly. Room will get daylight early.

Comfortable, very good bed and shower. Perfect location, right next to the bazaar. We could park right in front but there aren’t a lot of spots so not sure where we would park if the two places in front of the hotel were taken. Breakfast is good. Staff very friendly.

The bathroom was 'compact'.ie tiny!

The people were friendly. The location was good. For an expensive old town the price was reasonable.

This was a great little find. Family run property just five minutes from the bazaar and castle. Very clean and comfortable. Hosts spoke wonderful English and were very keen to offer information about the town. If you are offered a glass of raki, accept it as it’s homemade and super smooth!

We had a very nice stay in Gjirokastër at Kotoni. The appartment is close to the public parking garage and very close to everything you need to visit in the city. We had a good welcome from a guy who was very interested. The room was also good. A comfortable bed, a very(!) good shower and a nice view on the castle.

Nothing. Everything was perfect.

Friendliest staff we ever encountered.

Have patience trying to get to this place by car. Because it is right in the heart of the old city, it has great atmosphere and convenience, but streets are narrow and hard to negotiate.

VERY friendly and helpful folks. Right in the middle of all the stuff you want to do. Fabulous free breakfast.

Everything was fine.

The location of the guesthouse is perfect, a beautiful view from the front… right on the edge of the old town. The breakfast was truly wonderful, with fresh fruits, cake, traditional fritters and eggs cooked for you on your arrival to the dining room. Every care is taken to ensure you enjoy your stay here.
