We had a great stay. The private suite was beautiful. The hotel staff were really helpful and they even had vegan milk and cocktails which were difficult to find in Albania. I’d recommend this lovely hotel!
Tony the manager was very welcoming, all of the staff were helpful and friendly. Beautiful boutique hotel in Gjirokaster, only a 5-10 min walk from the centre of town. The spa and pool was nice and the view of the castle and mountains is stunning. Definitely would recommend staying here!
Yes everything was excellent from the room being spotless to the staff being so welcoming and friendly
The best experience .
We loved everything about this hotel , the spa , indoor pool , sauna , breakfast, the balcony with the most amazing view , also the location so close to the centre
I will definitely stay again and recommend to anyone
Well done , beautiful spot in Gjirokastra
The hotel is nicely located in a calm area with a stunning view on the castle. It is only 10 min away from the old bazar where you'll find most of the restaurant. The room is nice, and the bed is comfortable. The breakfast offers plenty of choices, and the staff is very nice and helpful. The hotel has reserved parking spots, so you won't struggle finding a parking place in these narrow streets.
This was an amazing little hotel with big features
We love the character and how comfortable and clean the room was and had everything that we needed. The spa and sauna were absolutely amazing and I’m sure the outdoor pool would be a huge bonus when warmer. The staff were really helpful and the breakfast was promised to be amazing and it definitely was. I can highly recommend staying here to all your friends.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this place and the friendly, helpful and kind staff who run it.
Super cool indoor pool and sauna, peaceful outdoor pool and sunbathing area. Rooms are spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated and modern but with an authentic Albanian style.
Amazing breakfast.
A peaceful oasis from the bustling bazar and hilltop castle, all which are a lovely 10-15min stroll away up the cobbled streets. Rooms with balconies and views over the valley and up the mountain are a real treat.
Don’t hesitate, book it, we loved it 💛
Propriétaire et personnel aux petits soins et vraiment avec un esprit convivial. Ils mettent à l’aise tout de suite. L’hôtel, la ville et les personnes restent notre meilleur souvenir de l’Albanie. La suite était magnifique et d’une tranquillité impressionnante.
Ein Traumhotel in Traumlage! Wirklich alles an und in diesem Hotel war erstklassig. Besonders toll fanden wir die Einrichtung, den Poolbereich, das Frühstück und die Lage.
