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 owner is amazingly hospitable and was very helpful with anything we needed, whether it was parking, recommendations for exploring the town, or even trying her homemade Raki. The breakfast also was good. The building itself and the rooms are dated but comfortable, whereas the bathroom appears to have been built in recent years.

Boasting mountain views, Villa EM features accommodation with patio, around 45 km from Zaravina lake. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel. The room was super comfortable, and the hosts were fantastic – the lady owner was the sweetest person and made us feel completely at home. We loved everything about our stay and honestly couldn't find anything to complain about. Even the internet was fast and reliable. The hotel is also super close to the city center and main attractions, all within walking distance. The breakfast was superb and the perfect way to start the day. We would come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

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. Beautiful guesthouse with garden and view to the castle. Very clean and comfortable. Location is perfect, a few minutes walk to the town centre. The owner is super nice and helpful. We had a wonderful stay and can only recommend this place. Like other coments say, it's difficult to get there by car because Google maps does not find it well. But if you call the owner before arrival they will guide you, they even picked us up to help us get to the house.

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
