    Since my last visit in 2010 the town has turned into some sort of tourist trap. Masses of day visitors seem to flood it in the afternoon and you have to leave the "Bazar" area to get some local food at a local level (of price and service). Be prepared for the steep ascents - particularly on a wet day.

    Everything about the town I liked.

    Everything about the town I liked. Drove to Blue Eye, which was a pleasant hilly drive with views. Love old town and the history. I spent 2 nights and it was perfect length of stay. Not an easy town to walk in because it is hilly and cobblestone, but walking slow is not a problem! Need a map or a really good sense of direction to find things. Walked to Ali Pasha bridge viewpoint and then hiked down to the bridge. The Albanian people are so kind, always smiling and ready to help. The drive from Tirana airport to Gjirokaster was fairly easy. I followed google maps and had no wrong turns. 3 hour drive.

    The town is beautiful and interesting for its fortified houses. Also is on UNESCO list. The old centre is very pleasant to walk around, it has an atmosphere. Car traffic was quite problematic, the roads between the houses are very narrow and very steep. Also, Google maps did not have good enough background and often led us somewhere where, for example, instead of a road was staircase. The old stone roads were very slippery in the rain ;-) Ono or two night is enought to stay here.

    Albanian thoughts:

    Albanian thoughts: Spent a week here in April 2024 – so many positives … Purely electronic passport gates at Tirana airport – an advantage if low on passport stamp space? Swift bus into town centre. Euros very widely accepted, 1:1 with the local Lek currency. Felt safe, met many great people and enjoyed a lot of raki; wine rather so-so, beer better … Trains are close to non-existent; negotiating the minibus service involves arriving and paying on the spot – found it straightforward; typical price: Tirana to Gjirokastra – 4 hours - £10 ..; saw stunning mountain scenery in last 2 hours, and when crossing the mountains from this town to Sarande port (1hr15, £3.30). Accommodation costs very favourable: enjoyed flats at £9 pppn. From Sarande, easy enough to catch a ferry or hydrofoil to Corfu, as a return airport – ca/ £20 single, 30-60 mins. Albaniatourguide proved a very useful online resource. Looking forward to next trip: apparently 12 degrees even in January …

    Gjirokastra stands as an enchanting and historically rich destination deserving of exploration. If you seek an unparalleled and genuine Albanian adventure, Gjirokastra emerges as the ideal destination to embark upon. Cheap hotels and cheap food prices

    Only had time to visit the castle. Spent several hours there. Would love to come back for the folk arts festival and visit some of the houses with the specific architecture that put this place on the UNESCO list.

    I really enjoyed my stay at Kotoni. It's located in the historic centre and a very short walk from all the main sights in Gjirokaster. The castle is a short walk away and also the bazaar where there are lots of bars and restaurants. I stayed in a single room and it was very cosy and comfortable. The breakfast included was exceptional; it was the best breakfast I've had while staying in a hotel in Europe. The food was so plentiful and varied. The hosts are also really lovely and very welcoming. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

    We were not exactly sure how to get to the hotel entrance....We were so close and someone asked me which hotel I was looking for...Voila, I was directed at that point and in few meters, I was greeted by the owner! It is THE REAL CENTER of the city and great location. It was great to experience Albanian breakfast-FULL COURSE and delicious! When we somehow lost ourselves driving in the sloppy narrow street in the center, the owner found us and helped us to get out of that place. We also got great travel hints at the breakfast time.

    If you go to one place in Albania, go to Gjirokaster and stay in Mele guesthouse. Edmond and his family were so welcoming and friendly. They parked our car for us and offered help with carrying the luggage. I had a stomach ache and they brought me their homemade tea. During our one night stay we ate dinner and breakfast and the food was delicious, definitely the best we had during our trip in Albania. The room was clean and cozy with a stunning view. Would definitely recommend staying in their guesthouse!!

Comfortable room for 2 adults and 2 children. Manjola prepares tasty breakfast. We also enjoyed the veranda upstairs at night. Nardi helped us park the car (gjirokastra has very narrow and hilly streets). Location was also great. 5 mins walk to old bazaar and then going uphill up the castle. Great time in gjirokaster!

    This hotel was excellent in many ways! Maradona, his wife and father ALL worked to make our stay comfortable and drove us wherever we wanted to go. Maradona was very available by phone and even spoke with our Sarande bus driver to have him drop us off so he could pick us up! The room was full of light with a great hot shower and hot delicious breakfast! They had roses planted all around the terrace which had a great view of Gjirokaster.

    One of my most favourite nights in Albania. The most gorgeous hotel in gjirokaster. Tatiana, the host, was so friendly and helpful and in the morning you get a home cooked breakfast which exceeds any hotel breakfast anywhere - it was amazing. There’s parking available but it’s within walking distance of everything in the town. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be back. Highly recommend staying at this beautiful hotel

It’s great to chat with a local and find out more about life in Albania. The breakfast is awesome! The best byrek we have had - big thank you to Albin’s friend’s mom for that!
