The location of Hotel Gjirokastra couldn’t be better, just a short stroll to the old city and castle, yet tucked away enough to give you some peace and quiet. The rooms at Hotel Gjirokastra are clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed. Opt for one with a balcony, it’s worth it for the stunning mountain views alone! After a day wandering the steep streets of the town (trust us, Gjirokastër is not for the faint-hearted driver), relaxing on your terrace feels like a dream. Oh, and the bed? Comfy enough to make you consider staying in just a little longer.

One of the standout features is the breakfast. The host prepares it fresh for each table, and it’s the perfect start to your day. Speaking of the host: what a gem! Friendly, helpful, and full of great tips to make the most of your visit. They even ensure there’s always a parking spot for you, which, in a hillside town like this, is no small feat.

The pool overlooking the mountains is another highlight. Whether you’re up for a swim or just lounging by the water, the views are unbeatable. Honestly, the only downside? Staying just one night. Hotel Gjirokastra and the area deserve way more time to soak it all in. It’s a 10/10 from us, and we’re already dreaming of a return visit!
