We stayed one night at Kore Guesthouse and completely fell in love. Every little detail was so cute and so Albanian, from the decor to the cozy atmosphere, you could feel the love and effort in every corner. The terrace had the most stunning view over the city and surrounding mountains — truly unforgettable. And the breakfast? Homemade petulla, fresh jam… everything was delicious and made with so much care. It was such a warm, beautiful experience. We’re already looking forward to coming back! 💛

Mimoza and Pandeli were oh-so-kind to me. I was not feeling well when I got there and they got me to a doctor immediately, then nursed me for days well beyond the call of duty or anything. I stayed longer than I planned and hated to leave. Breakfasts were great and immense. Again, super clean and nice. Would definitely recommend it.

The location was in an area with other small family home stays. You stay with the locals in their home, which I really like. Wonderful pittoresque area just 400 meters away from the castle and 700 meters away from the old town and bazaar. The rooms are clean and spacious and quite new I guess. Breakfast on the roof terrace gives a wonderful view over the mountains. Really positive about the property. The staff were an older couple who were really sweet. So kind. A great stay, with sweet and kind staff, in a real Albanian village atmosphere.

The place is located in the mountains, far away from the city so we enjoyed the nature a lot. The view is amazing, it looks as on the pictures. The room was new and clean. The internet connection was perfect so we could even work. We recommened to take a breakfast and a dinner at the villa because they include a salad, a main dish, a dessert and drinks. They were very tasty and we tried traditional, homemade food. We loved it a lot!!! The owners are amazing and open to answer all your questions about Albania and to recommend where to go. They took care of us and our needs all the time. We took a trip to the monastary with them and it was cool. We liked our staying at the villa a lot! It is very cozy and beautiful😍

Kristi (host) and his mother keep the place immaculate. In addition, they are very friendly and helpful. We had to leave to Saranda after our stay and Kristi happened to go there as well and offered us a ride. The bazaar is close by and so is the castle. Everything you need basically. Would definitely recommend to stay here over a hotel where you pay twice the price and get half the value. 10/10.

    The guesthouse is very beautiful in a great location. Adela is a wonderful host, replies fast and will help you with everything. Breakfast is available for €7 per person which we thought was great. The room was very comfortable and modern, the balcony was beautiful, the airconditioning worked well and the shower pressure was great.

    Clyde was a great host and we were well looked after. The guest house is a great quiet location in the old town, with superb panoramic views from the terrace where a great breakfast is also served. The room was spacious, very clean and comfortable. Ideal location making it easy to get to despite it being in the old town, and only a 10 minute walk to the centre! Thank you for a great and relaxing stay!
