Villa Topulli View features mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking, located in Gjirokastër, 44 km from Zaravina lake. There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. The accommodation provides airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available. The stay exceeded my expectations - it was very well run in regards to service, cleanliness, and overall comfort. We booked a room with a view of the castle, and we were able to enjoy it on the wrap around balcony. It had a table and two comfortable chairs. Inside the room, you had everything you could want. There was enough space to have two suitcases laid out, and enough table/counter space for things. The WIFI was very fast and reliable. The bathroom area was very clean and big. Breakfast was included, and we were greeted by a couple who prepared it. Parking was included!

Featuring a terrace and views of mountain, Guest House Emily is a recently renovated guest house located in Gjirokastër, 44 km from Zaravina lake. There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. The guest house features family rooms. Everything!!! This was the best place we stayed in all of Albania for several reasons. The guesthouse itself is small and cozy. The location is unbeatable: less than 10 minutes walk to the bazaar and other sights, and very quiet. The restaurant across the street is almost an extension of the guesthouse and the staff there are welcoming and the food is good. The room itself was very small but that’s okay because we only slept there- most time was spent around Gjirokaster or on the terrace. The room and property is immaculately clean, and has one of the best showers I’ve ever had. The real highlights were the terrace and the hosts. That terrace with the view, shade, breeze, and smell of flowers is my happy place. Perfect for reading, relaxing, or having a drink outside. Mimosa and Pandeli are the most gracious, generous, kind, fun, hosts!!! We had so much fun using Google translation and pantomiming to have conversations. Mimosa was kind enough to bring us fresh fruit and salad on the hottest of days. Truly amazing people. Hope to see them again soon!!

Housed in a historic building, the recently renovated Arpet guesthouse features accommodation with a garden and free WiFi. The property was built in 19th century and has air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony. The property is non-smoking and is situated 45 km from Zaravina lake. as almost any place to stay in girokaster, it is not easy to find. Googles maps sent us on a wrong way, so we called and they came to help us and guide us to the place. it is very well located. 5 minutes to the bazaar and 15 minutes to the castle. they waited us with some local fruit and coffee. the room is very well. beds and bathroom ok. the view to the castle from the yard, the best! breakfast very good

Located in Gjirokastër, Manga guesthouse is 45 km from Zaravina lake. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi.

Fitted with a terrace, the units offer air conditioning and feature a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with shower and slippers. At the guest house, each unit is equipped with bed linen and towels. We were warmly greeted by the family and little grand daughters who raced outside to open the gate and show us where to park. Our completely renovated room with a gorgeous rooftop terrace in the Old Town of Gjirokastër, and looking upwards towards the Castle walls was perfectly located. The host has tastefully decorated the room to a completely modern standard. It was spotlessly clean, bright and welcoming. We enjoyed some amazing breakfasts while in Albania, particularly in the North, but OMG Manga's doughnuts with poached strawberries were next level, as was the rest of breakfast
