Konaku

I have a traditional guest house located in the center of the old City.

Gorgeous accommodation

Reviewed By Anettamor

Konaku guest house is a stunning little place located on the top of a hill with spectacular views. It has a beautiful terrace where you can enjoy your breakfast whilst admiring the beauty of the town. The rooms are traditionally decorated which adds to your experience of discovering Albania. They are spacious and very clean with private bathrooms. There are three rooms available in total so, if you are travelling in a group, you could just rent them all. Highly recommended!

This hotel is situated near the castle and the bazaar, and is so beautifully decorated that you will be transported back in time, to an ottoman era. Very attentive and helpful staff and the breakfast is delicious. Modern bathrooms,

Qiqi Hotel

Road side hotel which may deliver more than you expect

Reviewed By J9596NBmichaelp

This place is not in the main tourist part of Gjirokaster and so the rate is much cheaper. The old town is not that far away and it is easier to walk down the hill. It has a Big market by the roundabout which is good for most pick ups and there is another supermarket soe 600m. It is a long way with a case from the bus stops but so are all of the places in the old town! They do not have people with good English but the people are very supportive and helpful. I got a free laundry service ! so phrase book and Googole translate for a bargain stay !

Palorto Hotel

Guest house at a noisy street, inhospitable owner

Reviewed By verub b

The guest house is located at a very noisy street. There are vans, a bus, and cars passing by till very late night, and people are walking and talking till early morning. The young man who checked us in, came the next day and did not greet us, was just staring at us. Nobody helped us with our heavy luggage when we were leaving (it's quite a long way to the street where the taxi was) even though the father saw us carrying it - we were 2 women travelling. It really was not an example of so famous Albanian hospitality, it was the opposite. Definitely would not stay again. Regret the money we gave them - they even did not say thank you. The first morning there was no hot or warm water in the shower even if I left the water running for a few minutes and had a shower for other few minutes. When I told about it the father, he got angry instead of an apology. Definitely not recommended.

Camping Late

Great value for money in Gjirokastra

Reviewed By xprez87

Family guesthouse located in a quiet area near the bus stop to Saranda/Tirana. It's a 30 minute walk from the castle but it's okay since you avoid carrying your luggage while walking up the steep slopes of Gjirokaster. The hosts are very friendly and they speak English. Homemade breakfast.

Lori's Traditional House

Malheureusement bcp trop chaud

Reviewed By Pri G

Nous avons séjourné en chambre familiale avec salle de baim commune. La chambre est tres jolie, mais un peu petite pour 4 car il n'y a aucun rangement pour les vêtements/valises. Les hôtes étaient très gentils et le petit déjeuné (en supplément 2euros/personne) est exceptionnel. La chambre n'est pas climatisée et c'était un énorme problème, car la chambre est sous les toits et nous etions comme dans un four. L'unique ventilateur n'y faisait rien, c'était l'enfer. Nous n'avons donc pas fermé l'oeil.... La salle de baim commune enfin est propre mais bien petite. Bref, nous avons écourté notre sejour d'une nuit (mais qd meme payé 50% de la deuxième nuit), car ce n'était pas vivable. Pour finir, en pleine saison le prix est le meme que dans les hôtels à proximité. Certainement un bon plan hors saison, lorsqu'il fait moins chaud et que les prix sont plus raisonnables, mais à éviter en famille au mois d'août.

The position of this building is the best. Near vjosa river you can enjoy your meal in the fresh air. The food is really fresh, tasteful and traditional. The price reasonable for bio food. Kind of difficult road until here, but it is worthy
