This was our 7th - and the last - accommodation in Albania, but it was our best one! The location of the house is just perfect - literally in the middle of the old town, within 1 minute walk from the old bazaar, but tucked away in a little alleyway, away from the noise of the street, so the atmosphere is very cozy. Let’s talk about our host - she is a very lovely person, who gladly arranged breakfast for us at 6am because we wanted to see Berat before our flight back home in the afternoon. Very quick and polite communication via Booking, but in person you can see that she is a person who puts her heart and soul into this. The level of hospitality is definitely over the average, we felt very welcoming during our stay. The house - both from the outside and inside - is beautiful and the breakfast is delicious and absolutely filling. Overall, if you are looking for a perfect accommodation in Gjirokaster, you just found it!

The host kindly stayed up extremely late waiting for us to arrive due to bus issues and was very kind and accommodating. The location was absolutely phenomenal and having breakfast on the roof right under the Obelisk was so beautiful. Room was clean, warm shower, great aircon. Highly recommend thank you again.

We were there on a Saturday night, and it was really loud due to the nearby bars. But the music stopped around midnight.

We stayed one night in the ground floor room and honestly, everything exceeded our expectations. The house is even more charming than in the photos. It’s perfectly located in the bazar, central but tucked away enough to be peaceful. The room stays naturally cool thanks to the stone walls, so we didn’t even need to use the air conditioning. It was spotless and felt fresh without the need for daily cleaning. The mattress was incredibly comfortable, by far the best we’ve ever had in any accommodation !! Breakfast was truly excellent: generous, varied, and delicious, served on a lovely terrace with views of the castle. Our hosts were incredibly kind and helpful. They live upstairs and were always available if we had questions. Her husband even helped us carry our big suitcase from the parking lot to the accommodation. They also helped us book a taxi. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the city!

Nothing

The property is a small house, an old one with much traditional style. Our room was spacious with fine element and decoration from the traditional culture of the city. Our room had a view to a small and very delicious garden. The room and bathroom were sparkling clean. The sheets were white and clean and embroidered lace pillowcase. We enjoy very much the breakfast at the terrace. The terrace was small but comfortable with a impresive view to the castle. The lady of the house was very friendly and promt to our requests. We were feeling as at grandma's house. Everything was so impressive. I would return for sure.

I loved my stay! It was in the center but still secluded, it had a little veranda with a beautiful view that was so nice for us smokers. The breakfast the lovely lady cooked for us was better than most restaurant food we tried. The house was spacious, meticulously clean, newly furnished and it felt more like a home. The hostess was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

The location was perfect! Even though we were right in the middle of the bustling town it was nice and secluded. The lady at the accomodation was beiayoduk. She did all our washing for a small cost and the breakfasts were all home made and very tasty. I would definitely reccomend you to stay at Stone House.

It was off the main road and at the weekend they had loud music until 11pm Nothing to do with the actual stay

Lovely traditional building in the heart of Gjirokaster. Everything was perfect, breakfast was top notch. Super clean and cosy.

Breakfast (1st day - no items like bread and butter). We had a great breakfast on the 2nd day after we made few suggestions IE bread, butter and boiled eggs instead of omlette with peppers. Sometimes there was a funny smell in the bathroom.

Location, bŕeakfast (2nd day), self contained room with own entrance, helpful host (ordered us taxi and waited with us on the main road until it arrived)

On the weekends, it can be a little noisy as it's right above some bars and restaurants. Not the fault of the host though! That's what you get for being in the best location.

We couldn't have found a more perfect place to base ourselves in Old Gjirokaster. Although it's located in the middle of the old town, the Stone House is tucked away in a secluded corner, so you won't be bothered by the shops and restaurant traffic. Our unit also had its own entrance, with a lovely garden outside. The room had everything we needed for a two night stay, including an a/c that can also function as a heater (nights can get cold). As with other reviews, our breakfast was very lovely and generous - the table was filled to the brim! The host lives in a unit at the top, and is very kind and helpful. We needed an early morning taxi to the bus station and not only did she help arrange one, she got up early to pack breakfast for us and waited for the taxi to come with us. We really appreciated this, and managed to catch our bus in time!

It was a perfect location. The host was helpful and welcoming. She helped organise a taxi for us and provided a fabulous early morning breakfast on the terrace, overlooking the castle and obelisk. Highly recommended!

Nothing, all was fabulous.

The guesthouse is a wonderful place to stay, our room was just beautiful, spacious, lovely carpets, bathroom perfect. Amazing attention to detail about everything from our host, who was very welcoming , friendly and kind. The breakfast on the lovely terrace was delicious. The location I think, was probably the best in the city.

Billa the owner is very nice! She was very helpful and generous! The rooms are cozy, comfortable beds, great shower. The place is right in the center of the old town. Also there's a nice view from the roof. We highly recommend it!

The room was large and comfortable, very clean and had everything we needed. The landlady was very polite and helpful and she served us an excellent homemade breakfast. The hotel was 2 minutes away from shops and restaurants but in a quiet street. I totally recommend it.

Lovely people, very kind. Perfect location 2 minutes walk to Bazaar. Didn't spend much time in the room as we were only there for one night, but it was comfortable, clean and accessible. The breakfast was fabulous and prepared early for us as we had to catch an early bus. We really appreciated this, and are so glad we didn't miss out on what can only be described as an absolute treat
