    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

    The city is pretty but unfortunately the vast majority of it...

    The city is pretty but unfortunately the vast majority of it is rundown with only the bazaar and some houses being maintained to a level fit for a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and once you go away from the bazaar especially at night it feels really lonely and sad. Gjirokaster has become very touristic in the past few years with the old bazaar being constantly crowded with youths from Western European countries who do not respect the place and openly smoke hashish and get drunk. The road to get to the old town is a traditional stone path that while beautiful is a disaster because it destroys your car's suspension, has very steep grades and if another car comes from the other direction good luck! Because of this and the lack of parking in the old town (even among hotels that advertise having parking) you become a prisoner of the old town. During the summer because of the type of stone the city is built of (also found in the mountain Gjirokaster is built on) it is very hot even during the night making the entire experience very unpleasant. Most museums/attractions are basic and the few English descriptions that can be found are very nationally charged which reminds me more of the rhetoric of the 1940s than 2023. The vast majority of Albanians, even those who work in this "tourism industry" cannot speak English at all or speak it very badly making communication difficult and moreover they are not really friendly with tourists. Gjirokaster like Albania in general is about as expensive as Greece or even Italy while effectively offering a touristic product akin to a 3rd world country. Unless corruption is rooted out, Albanians stop emigrating and the economy and democratic institutions develop I frankly do not think I will ever visit Gjirokaster again.

    The hotel is in the city centre hosted in a beautiful historical building; we stayed in the suite, the former living room used for ceremony and daily life by the family’s members. The breakfast is really a beautiful moment, served in the terrace of the house by the super kind staff of the hotel. The atmosphere of Old Bazaar hotel is unique, very recommended to live the original vibes of Gjirokaster old city, a beautiful experience that we loved a lot. Thank you for your kindness, we will never forget it!

    The Hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of Gjirokaster. The historic city center is only a few steps away. The location of the hotel is simply stunning and allows an excellent view over Gjirokaster. The hotel-staff is extremely friendly and helped me even with a little problem with my car. Breakfast was excellent and was much more than a single person could eat. This was the best hotel I had during my week touring around Albania! Highly recommended!

    A beautiful hotel! We stayed in the suite which was light and airy and an amazing view over Gjirokastër. The bed was really comfy (medium-hard) with lovely pillows. The service from Tatianna was amazing. We followed Google maps to get there (DO NOT DO THIS!) and when we got stuck in the cobbled streets in our car, she came out and helped us to get there. Breakfast was delicious. Really well located and near lots of popular places. 10/10 would recommend

    Very clean and nice family run hotel. The owner, Maradonna will literally do anything for you; he picked us up from the bus station, drove us anywhere in Gjirokäster we liked, gave us information and got us back to the busstation all for FREE. You just give him a call and he’ll be there, truely an amazing experience and I have the utmost respect for the hard work he and his family put in, make sure to give them a generous tip if you stay here.

Good communication with owner who helped with parking, which was important as the parking and driving in Gjirokaster is extremely challenging! Anyone who has mobility issues would definitely struggle to walk up and down into town - it's up a fairly steep hill.
