Boasting a bar and views of city, Kore Guest House is a guest house set in a historic building 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 river views, a terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. The first thing we liked is the location where the guest has been located. The hosts were so very sweet. They waited late at night until we reached there and kept the heater on for us to feel warm as it was damn cold outside during December. The room and the whole house has been decorated by handmade things which made us feel very much homely. They took good care of our daughter who is 8 years old. The guest house is located just 750metres from the castle and the market. So, it's closeby to everything. Finally, the breakfast prepared by her mother. OMG it was so very good and she made sure we had it warm. We loved the way she served everything. We felt at home ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

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. AN AMAZING PLACE!!! A great view over the whole oldtown and castle. Private table overlooking it all while having a beer in the evening or for breakfast in the morning. The hosts are super welcoming and they came to pick us up after we got a bit lost on our way with our car. The appartment is super clean and comfy! Easy walk to the castle and old town, and the walk up isn't too bad at all. Not too steep. Would have liked to spend a few more night here for sure

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. What a place to stay, me and my partner stayed here for a night while travelling around Albania, we were greeted by the lady who ran the place, she was so friendly and such a amazing host and really tried to make us have the best stay possible even tho she speaks little English. The room was so lovely and I have to say I don’t think you can get a better spot with only 5 min walk into the Center, but far enough out to get a peaceful night sleep. The breakfast was so yummy and by far the best one we have had. Would recommend to anyone who is travelling around and couples any day of the week
