Guest Reviews

• Irini (10/5): -
• Matthias (10/5): -
• Kristi (10/5): There is a reason this beautiful guest house has been successful for three generations. - Everything was top-notch: clean, comfortable bed, lovely furnishings, excellent location, fantastic breakfast, friendly hosts. That we couldn’t stay longer.
• Luctor (10/5): - Traditioneel huis, vriendelijke host, centraal gelegen, prive parkeerplaats
• Jane (10/5): Lovely stay - Lovely property with kind, very friendly owner. Very good breakfast—which you can eat outside if weather permits and enjoy the view of the river & the city. Just be prepared to walk up a few stone steps to the guest house, but that is the case all over Berat. And Berat is beautiful—much larger than I had realized. Also, fantastic value. Nothing
• Krzysztofgo (10/5): -
• Mariko (9/5): - ベラトの風景の中に滞在できたこと 坂道をそんなに登らなくて済んだこと 眺めも良く 観光にも食事にも行きやすく楽しめた 最初部屋の鍵がかからず伝えたら数人がかりで直してくれた 湯沸かしポットがなかったことだけ
• Stavros (10/5): Είμαστε τυχεροί που το επιλέξαμε! - Πολύ όμορφα και πολυ καθαρά δωμάτια! Ίσως το πιο καθαρό δωμάτιο που έχουμε μείνει και δεν είναι λίγα. Genius 3 από την πρώτη μέρα. Η τοποθεσία πολύ βολική χωρίς καθόλου περπάτημα στα ανηφορικά στενά του παλιού χωριού για να φτάσεις στο κατάλυμα και κοντά στον πεζόδρομο της πόλης. Το πρωινό ήταν πολύ ωραίο με υπέροχη θέα από το μπαλκόνι που σερβίρεται. Οι φωτογραφίες στην booking αντιπροσωπεύουν την πραγματικότητα. Όλα ήταν τέλεια!
• Rose (10/5): Great location - We loved our stay at this charming old town guesthouse. The bed was comfortable, the hot water plentiful and the location was perfect. We had a great view of the river from our window. The breakfast was big and delicious. .
• David (10/5): - Very comfortable and lovely place in a historic and magical setting. Joseph was very kind to us. He cooked us the best breakfast of our whole trip!
• Christine (10/5): Wir kommen gerne wieder. - Das Frühstück war sehr gut. Es handelt sich um einen Familienbetrieb mit einem sehr netten Gastgeber. Das historische Haus gehörte schon dem Großvater des Gastgebers. Das Haus wurde vom jetzigen Gastgeber originalgetreu modernisiert und liegt im historischen Ortskern. Ein großes Plus war der reservierte Parkplatz. Frühstück auf der Terrasse vor dem Haus mit Blick auf den Ort!
• Loucas (9/5): -
• Xenia (10/5): Extraordinary place for a great stay - Extraordinary place to discover Berat. Great central location, very friendly owners, big rooms in traditional style, big new bathrooms, new comfortable beds. It was my third visit to Berat and I prefer this place to all others.
• Frank (9/5): Heerlijk adresje om lopend Berat te verkennen. - Leuke locatie, midden in het oude centrum. Parkeerplaats was gereserveerd. Lieve mensen die alles voor je willen doen. Klein terrasje waar we ontbeten en eind van de dag een heerlijk wijntje konden drinken. Kledingkast zonder legplanken en hangers voor kleding.
• Tjaart (10/5): -
• Clarke (10/5): Enchanting guest house - Pure magic. Cozy, historical with little details that made the stay exceed expectations. The staff was friendly and accommodating, the room had gorgeous woodworking on the ceiling and the bathroom seemed to be carved out of the hills. Breakfast was exceptional, and I enjoyed a snack of Berati olives with an excellent red wine from a local vintner. I hope to come back! NA
• Deborah (10/5): Perfect stay in a beautiful city. - We loved everything about this small guesthouse. It was beautifully decorated with traditional Albanian rugs. The staff and host were wonderful, friendly, and informative. Our host even took us to the main bus station. Breakfast was incredible. The location was within walking distance to everything. Absolutely perfect! Nothing
• Daniorte (10/5): Localización y limpieza - Ubicación perfecta, cama comoda, wifi rapido, buena ducha. Personal amable y desayuno perfecto. Inmejorable Todo bien
• Loriane (10/5): Merci à notre hôte qui nous a reçu dans ce superbe endroit à Berat, je recommande à 100% - L’accueil était vraiment superbe, l’endroit idéalement placé et un super petit déjeuner Rien tout était au top
• Georgiana (10/5): A gorgeous guesthouse in the perfect location. - We absolutely loved our stay. The location is ideal for sightseeing but it was also quiet at night. Beds were super comfortable, bathroom was great, AC worked very well. Breakfast was delicious & plentiful. Bonus was having a bar to enjoy a nice wine on the terrace. The standout was Rowena and her husband, lovely people who made us feel very welcome & even gave us a lift to the bus terminal when it was raining and we had to leave early morning. We couldn’t open the windows and had to keep the AC on to cool down the room.
• Magda (10/5): -
• Gregory (10/5): - Great location,very friendly helpful hosts comfortable bed Nothing
• Marguy (9/5): -
• Robert (10/5): - Wszystko
• Joslaa (9/5): Sjarmerende gjestehus, anbefales på det varmeste! - Sentral beliggenhet midt i hjertet av Berat. Sjarmerende lokaler, gode senger og hyggelig uteplass. Veldig hyggelig og hjelpsom vertinne som disket opp med nydelig og variert frokost alle tre dager.
• SAYAKA (10/5): 最高の宿 - 立地も部屋も朝ごはんも全て良い！宿の人もいつも笑顔で親切で素晴らしい。最高でした！！ 特になし
• Lucas (10/5): - La chambre : salle de bain creusée dans la roche, plafond en bois, décoration soignée et atmosphère pensée pour un esprit authentique et chaleureux. Le personnel : je devrais même commencer par là, car c’est clairement le point fort. Dès l’accueil, toutes nos questions ont trouvé réponse avant même que nous ayons à les poser. Nous avons été aidés pour nos déplacements vers la gare routière et nous nous sommes sentis vraiment importants et accompagnés. La localisation : idéale, en plein cœur du quartier historique, sans être trop haut sur la colline, avec tout à proximité.
• Milne (9/5): - Beautiful traditional Albanian rooms with renovated bathrooms, right in the heart of Berat. Easy walk to restaurants. Parking available. Big breakfast. We loved it!
• goncalo_ramalho (10/5): A stay we will never forget - I cannot say enough good things about this place. Location couldn't be better, typical Berat house but not too far from the main road, so you don't need to "climb" with your bags. Perfect to walk around Berat and Goriza. The room was amazing, looked carved in stone, and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was incredible, it was so much we couldn't eat all of it. But the best was the people, everyone made us feel very welcome. The owner answered all my questions before we arrived. And while we were there they helped us get to our new destination even after we checked out. We lost our bus and they made calls to find out how we could get to our destiny for our budget. True Albanian kindness that we will never forget. That we had to leave so soon. We should have booked two night
• Rafael (9/5): -
• Tommaso (10/5): - Struttura deliziosa, parcheggio privato sulla strada principale, colazione molto curata
• David (8/5): - The breakfast was plentiful and excellent. The service fantastic! The location was perfect, but for the loud music next door. On Saturday evening, there was very loud live music playing next door. I couldn’t sleep until after the band finished playing at midnight.
• Elina (10/5): Central and very comfy stay - Central, quiet, great bed, cute interior and excellent welcome
• Carol (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tim (9/5): Superb - The couple that run this place, Jozef and Rosena (apologies if that's not exact) went above and beyond. They were attentive. They were friendly. They were extremely helpful. They were genuine. The place was spotless and had a very warm feeling to it. The location is ideal.
• Steven (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely host! We liked everything. The room was impressive, very authentic, the bathroom had a rocky wall (wauwww). The breakfast was also above expectations. Make sure to ask before your stay where to park. Don't arrange it last minute.
• Arie (10/5): Exceptional - A charming and authentic stay in the heart of Berat!!! This beautiful traditional house is perfectly located in the center of Berat, allowing you to truly feel the city’s unique atmosphere. The rooms are tastefully decorated, comfortable, and equipped with air conditioning and a fridge. The host is exceptionally kind and goes out of their way to ensure a pleasant and memorable stay. A freshly prepared breakfast is included and adds a lovely touch to the experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a cozy and authentic stay in Berat! Nothing
• Anonymous (9/5): Good views, modern room, and nice and helpful stuff - Staff super nice and accomodating. Our room had beautiful views to the mountain, river and valley. We had parking. Hotel is in the low part of the mountain. All good
• Mary (10/5): Best location , friendly host and a comfortable bed - We had a perfect stay here… the location was central to everything we wanted to see. The owner was such a lovely host. Made us feel very welcome and provided us with a beautiful breakfast every morning . Her husband kindly drive us to the bus station the day we left which we very much appreciated. Everything was great
• Paddy (10/5): Stay here - it is gorgeous - great hosts - A perfect place to stay - lovely renovated ottoman guest house - just one level the Main Street on the river. Delightful owners who were amazingly hospitable, even took us the bus station at no cost - crisp linen, thick towels, aircon, delicious breakfast served on the patio. Big bonus there was a small bar with an honesty system and you could settle your entire bill with a card. Thoroughly recommend.
• Victoria (9/5): Magical place to stay in the center of this lovely town. - Beautiful guest house in the center next to the river. Lovely rooms, the ceilings are amazing. nothing but not for people with limited mobility
• Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
• Robert (9/5): Great Place to Stay in Berat - It's location is convenient - in the heart of Berat and just off Rruga Antipatrea, very close to the new bridge. It's not far up the hill. Don't let Google Maps mislead you in going a long way across a lot of steps. Joseph was a wonderful host. He met all of our needs and cooked us a delicious breakfast each morning. I can't think of anything.
• Helen (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic place in the old town - a few steps up from the main road with a quiet terrace to have breakfast, drinks and see the view. The staff are exceptionally helpful and organised a cab for onward travel too. Would definitely love to go back and would recommend! Nothing to dislike!
• Victoria (8/5): Amazing location and warm welcome to this newly renovated guest house - Very well situated. Recently renovated. Very comfortable beds. The WiFi was a bit complicated
• Guest (9/5): Superb - A great place to stay, the family made us feel welcome. Difficult to open the windows in the bedroom.
• Laurelie (10/5): The best place to stay in Berat to experience the warmth and hospitality of Albania! - We enjoyed an excellent full breakfast, included with the room. My brother and sister-in-law visited from the USA. A one-night trip to Berat was a must! We had a wonderful time, thanks to the exceptional hospitality of the hosts. The facility is spotless, the rooms are lovely and well-appointed. Guest House J. Prifti is a historic building carefully converted into a small guest house. Renovation is preservation when done correctly and great care has been taken to preserve this beautiful structure which was once a family home. The location is fantastic, steps away from many restaurants, shops, and historic attractions. It is perfect for solo travelers. Be sure to visit the Fani Winery tasting room only a few steps away! The winery is also part of this family business. The wine is SUPERB! There is nothing I did not like, everything was fantastic.
• Patricia (10/5): Fabulous host, wonderful guesthouse in a gorgeous town. - This was the most beautiful guesthouse and the host, Josef was very friendly and helpful. It was in a great area to explore the town, but with only a dozen or so steps up to the guesthouse from the main road, making it very easy with luggage. Bed was super comfy, bathroom & shower were fabulous and the breakfasts were plentiful and delicious. Highly recommend this wonderful guesthouse. Nothing.
• Alexandra (10/5): 100% recommended - Greatest booking in Albania! Location, extremely clean, bed was so comfortable, host so friendly. The views are incredible… it was over our expectations, much nicer than in pictures. If we ever visit Albania we would definitely go there for more days. -
• Bridget (9/5): Gorgeous guesthouse in Berat - Amazing location, in the old town but just back from the main road on the river. Gorgeous views from the windows in the room. Lovely hosts who were so helpful with everything we needed, from free car parking to nourishing breakfasts to borrowing scissors!
• Gaia (9/5): Superb - Lovely traditional guest house, extremely kind owners and ideal location
• Caitlin (9/5): Superb - Lovely guesthouse, conveniently located in the old town. Spacious and clean room with much needed air conditioning. Great breakfast and really friendly and helpful host. Lovely terrace to enjoy a drink in the evening. If you arrive by car just be aware it's difficult to park close to the guesthouse/in the area. There is parking you can pay for (5 euro's a day) just further along the main road if you follow the river.
• Alladi (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jaime (10/5): Lovely stay - Host was lovely and accommodating. The room had a nice charm to it being in a restored historic building. Good size room with comfortable bed. Delicious and good size breakfast. The owner even dropped us at the bus terminal in the morning. The curtains didn't block the sunlight well.
• Rachel (10/5): Excellent in every way. - Hosts are very kind. The room was perfect and the guest house is in a great location, convenient to everything.
• Roger (10/5): Exceptional - People are great and the place was lovely. What more Could you want
• Paul (9/5): Stay in this lovely place right in the centre of it all - Great position with community terrace views. Very amenable host providing great service and breakfast on the lovely terrace. Great bathroom built into the rock wall. Comfortable bedd and pillows . Highly recommend this place Had to lug suitcases up a couple of steep stairs. Blockout curtain for window would be better for sleep quality. Signage was a bit tricky
• Nico (10/5): Comfy and welcoming stay in historical center - Super comfy and clean rooms, modern and in a historical building, perfect location with a great view, delicious and large breakfast, and super super friendly hosts. Perfect stay. Only minor downside is that the curtains were a little bit transparent but didn't affect my sleep
• Keryn (10/5): Great location and comfortable stay. - Great location, easy to get to touristy places, lots of restaurants around, and nice wine at the guest house. The room was cozy and the bed was comfy. The breakfast was good, nice tea and juice to start with coffee to finish, superb.
• Louise (10/5): The most perfect place to stay in Berat! - Absolutely everything! The location is perfect, the rooms and bathroom are beautiful and exceptionally clean, with everything you could need (the fridge and air con was particularly handy!) Breakfast is fresh and filling. The host is wonderful, very kind and friendly. She even saved a parking space for us outside the property on arrival. We also enjoyed some delicious wine on the terrace bar, which came with snacks and fruit. One of the nicest places I’ve ever stayed, not just in Albania, but everywhere! Nothing!
• Oleksandr (10/5): Exceptional - Nice hotel, very clean room, comfortable bed, beautiful view and very hospitable hostess.
• Stefan (10/5): Amazing location which enhanced our trip! - The views from the outside seats where we ate breakfast and inside the restaurant area in the hotel were AMAZING. J was an amazing host and connected us with many experiences in town and was lovely. The property exceeded our expectations and we would certainly stay again. If having an amazing breakfast cooked to order while looking over the river and city sound good to you then this is the place. Easy walk to the castle from the location and parking was easy to find right across the walking bridge (5 minutes walk). Would certainly recommend!!! The stay was great, no issues. Everything was above what we expected.
• Peter (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rebecca (10/5): Perfect - Best nights’ stay of 10 days travelling in Albania - Can’t recommend this guesthouse enough, everything was perfect. The house is beautiful and traditional, the room was really comfortable and spotlessly clean. Location is perfect, right in the centre of the town but peaceful and quiet. The hosts were really lovely and welcoming and when we enquired about taxi services in the town they offered to drive us to where we needed and collected us after, and wouldn’t accept payment for it. Breakfast in the morning was also delicious! Thanks for everything :)
• Federica (10/5): Totally satisfied and happy to have been there! - Was clean, easy to find, comfortable and the staff was excellent! Will be back
• Capaleve (9/5): A perfect night in Berati - Location was perfect in one of the typical houses of Berati Old Town, but still only a few meters from the main road. Parking is not easy there but the owner found (or had), a perfect spot for us on the street. Very kind from him! Tasty breakfast in the morning. Nothing
• Silvio (10/5): Amazing place in a amazing location -
• Juozas (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rebecca (6/5): Pleasant -
• Abigail (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jenna (10/5): Authentic guesthouse in central Berat. Fantastic hospitality with original decoration. A must stay. - The guesthouse is built into the side of a mountain & has exposed stone in the bathrooms. Our host was welcoming & attentive. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast on the terrace. The location is excellent, all the sights of Berat are just a short walk away. We would highly recommend a stay.
• Guus (9/5): Superb - Very friendly hosts.
• Jessica (10/5): Perfect location, this must be one of the best in Berat! - Great location, steps to everything. It’s in a pretty stone alleyway. They saved a parking spot for us right in front of the apartment on the main road, the friendliest sweetest host ever, the most comfortable bed and linens we’ve had in all of Albania. Breakfast was big with an omelet too. Loved the style of the room, old and pretty and decorated in an antique style. Amazing shower as well. I can’t think of anything I didn’t love!
• Jessica (10/5): Exceptional - lovely staff, great location & rooms beautiful and clean. breakfast was delicious! parking is just street parking & there isn’t much available, you also have to climb up the old town stairs to reach the property but not far
• Jessica (10/5): Exceptional - such kind staff, rooms super clean & new. very nice breakfast included and the best nights sleep in ages. excellent value for money. just be aware parking is street parking only - luck of the draw
