The old town is beautiful and charming. The steep stone streets, the castle above and the view across the Drino valley. There are lots of nice restaurants that serve traditional food for a very good price. The bazaar has lovely antique and souvenir shops and the locals who run them are pleasant and friendly without being too in your face. The Cold War Tunnel was a super interesting sight although the tour I got was short and the guide’s English was limited. The castle was amazing and I do recommend the museum in there for a better understanding of the area’s history and mentality. The Ethnographic museum is beautiful - it doesn’t offer much information, it’s more of a visual experience. The Skenduli house has quick guided tours around it and tells the story of every day life in Gjirokaster 300 years ago. Walking around Gjirokaster can get a little tiring since it is all quite steep, but the distances whithin the old town are very manageble. I went down to the river one day and the area down there is less clean, but offers a more variety of shopping, and it was nice for me to get out of the most touristy area. Taxis leave from the square where the large albanian flag is, and are quite affordable. I’d recomend walking to the other side of the castle and see some other neighbourhoods besides the one around the old bazaar. You’ll see more of every day Albanian life, people herding sheep, crumbling old buildings and such. Very interesting. Staying at Celo guesthouse was perfect and I enjoyed the food at Taverna Kuka and Check-in Restaurant for example.
I was there only for a day and the time was not enough to explore all the beauty of such an antique place. I got to visit Argjiro Castle. Only the history that the castle carries along is magnificent to learn about, which represents so much of the city values and tradition. I had the best time ever. To transportation was so easy to find every wherever needed at any place.
Take your walking shoes as this is the only way to discover the town. The castle museum which is an extra 200lek (1.5) was totally worth it, it's beautifully done with just the right amount of writing and not too many exhibits. Great surroundings and views. I was off season so not too many cars but I can imagine how it can get very awkward to share the streets with our fellow drivers. There is a plan to cut off some streets in the future and restoration plans are well underway. There is even a local bus for those allergic to taxis, it goes right up to the castle from what I've seen many times a day. Taxi to and from the furgón drop off at the bottom of the hill is 500lek (4€). You could probably walk down if so inclined. Skenduli House was very interesting and the visit was guided by one of the daughters of the family. Enthographic Museum was handy if you want to just get some pictures and already know what you're looking at. The drive from Tirana to Gjirokaster took about 4h and I paid 1000lek about 8€. And after leaving Fier it just gets more and more impressive. For solo public transport takers like me to get to the main bus "station" in Tirana you don't have to get a taxi (I got totally ripped off I feel paying 900lek, although he used a meter, for the trip from my bnb to the bus) just take a local bus from the center saying either Tirana e Ré (New Tirana) or Kamez. Or better Google the Eagle Roundabout and show the picture to the driver since this is where the buses for all southern destinations depart. Bus ticket 40 lek. From Gjirokaster I went south to Saranda. Furgón or shared taxis are 300lek. Road is a mountain road so be aware that some locals get rather carsick...
I love Gjirokastra, one of my favorite cities in Albania. interesting history, good local food (try the cheese with honey and sesame & qifqi!!) and mainly it's just a fun place to wander around since it's so beautiful. If you want to see only the touristic attractions than one day is a enough but if you have time, stick a around a but longer.
I am Albanian, yet I did not know that Albania had this much old charm packed in one small and very old town. Gjirokastra, the city of stone, is beautiful. I wish we had had more time to stay there. To walk up and down the steep hillside streets of the old town or to wander around the castle. It's not just the meandering man made stone streets and houses that are a sight to admire, its surrounding landscape of steep hillsides, mountains and valley below it are something I could have admired for days.
There is plenty to do in this old town. Kastro is a must but wish we had stayed longer to have more time to see other attractions. We had a wonderful young lady guide us around the castle! This stay was a highlight of our vacation.
The hotel and staff are superb! Nothing can be improved upon, the landscape, location and facilities are amazing and nothing was too much trouble for the staff who were extremely friendly, polite and attentive to a very high professional standard. The manager and receptionists were diligent in ensuring that we had everything that we required. They are very proud of their hotel and their town making sure that we didn't miss out on seeing key places. If you are visiting Gjirokaster this is the only hotel you should consider.
The staff was amazingly helpful. Nera (not sure if I spelled that right) gave me a lot of good information so that my two days there were spent well. The hotel is in an old house, but with all the conveniences you'd expect. The location is just uphill from the Throat of the Market and away from the tourist area, and very close to the historic houses on the walking tour. Staying at the Hotel Kalemi made my visit very enjoyable. I will stay there again when I return to Albania!
Very friendly and helpful owner who gave us information about local specialities and phoned travel agencies for a transfer to Berat. She even went to buy Caj i Malit (tea speciality) for us. Tidy, cozy room (very small but comfy) with a perfect view on the mountains. Nearby the castle and Old town, where you can find several Albanian restaurants and handicraft shops. Breakfast was good, with handmade jam. We had a great stay in Gjirokastër. Thank you, Faleminderit!
The views over the balcony are amazing and that makes the already tasty homemade breakfast even better. The host was incredibly friendly and helpful in making sure we got the most out of our stay. He was very responsive in emails and spoke excellent English. The rooms and guesthouse is very comfortable in size, and the patio areas are all very lovely, overlooking the mountains and down on the rest of the village of Gjirokaster. We would definitely come back.
Simply great! Super breakfast, extremely clean, amazing hosts, small library with superb books, the house is just beautiful, the owners do free walking tours that are so so worth it and, to top it all off, they have the smallest kitten I’ve ever seen, Pickle is his name (so much cuteness!). I’ll be recommending Albania, Gjirokaster, and this hostel to everyone. My best wishes to all of you and I hope Pickle grows into a strong lion!
Eda was a friendly and helpful hostess, and she also served up delicious food in her hotel restaurant. The hotel is beautifully decorated in the traditional style and is a fine historical building. Our room was comfortable and clean and again finely decorated in the old Albanian style. Breakfast was excellent and the central location could not be better. A special thanks to Irgis who is a big help to his Mum Eda in the restaurant!
Perfect! New and comfortable accomodation in an old house. Very much nice details and a very good bed and shower. Calm and central. Parking area in front of the house. Best hotel i visited in albania. The family is very kind and they really cared for us because we had a cold: They made tea, gave us grapes and other traditional medicine. Thank you very much!
Amazing hotel, great views and location. Perfectly presented with beautiful furniture ans decor. Rooms are large and are well equipped. Breakfast was huge and fantastic - especially the albanian doughnuts - yummm! The owner even organised a tour for me back to sarande via the blue eye. Nothing was too much. Best place to stay in town.
We had a one night stay on our way to Greece. Hotel is very clean, well maintained, with nice and humble staff. From hotel you have a nice view on the Gjirokaster. Thanks for making us feel welcome and for all the smiles you gave to our little boy. We hope to see you again.
