Guest Reviews

• Mihaela (10/5): Great time! Thank you for the hospitality - Great view, clean room, responsive host
• Neringa (9/5): - Staff was helpful and friendly. Beautiful garden with the nice view to the castle
• Wilma (8/5): Echt uit opa’s tijd. - Leuke plek. Kamer is echt uit grootvaders tijd. In de ochtend erg rumoerig! Een haan van opa en nog een aantal buurhaantjes. Half vier wakker.
• Vera (9/5): Perfecte locatie voor een bezoek aan Gjirokaster en omgeving - Leuke locatie in een paar minuutjes wandel je naar het leuke oude centrum . Het tuintje is fijn om te zitten. Heerlijk ontbijt geserveerd door de gastheer
• Walker (9/5): Lovely accommodation in Gjirokaster - Really loved staying here in Gjirokaster. Communication was good between the owner and ourselves. The location was great and around a 15 min walk to the bazaar area in the centre. A public parking lot was a short walk (3 mins) down from the accommodation or was available along the street next to the house. The house had a lovely terrace with views and the room was spacious and clean. Entry was via a locked key box. The shower was powerful and the wifi good. There was a small fridge. The price was very good. Be aware that the whole town is very hilly if you have mobility problems. Not a complaint, but a need to know.
• Nick (10/5): Lovely place - Helpful host. Parking was not an issue Nice clean, well appointed room.
• PAUL (10/5): - Hote super et disponible, places disponibles à proximité avec parking gratuit, literie ok
• Abby (9/5): Perfect Gjirokaster stay - We loved our stay at Grandpa's home! The location is in walking distance (just beware of the hills!) to both the old town and the newer town which was convenient. The views from the patio are stunning as well. The room was simple and functional, and the wifi was super strong. We appreciated the flexible check-in and the kind hospitality we received.
• Saumya (9/5): - Great location, beautiful views of the castle. Very comfortable stay! Would recommend. Everything was wonderful! We got a room where the bathroom was private but was outside of the room, so would recommend to check it when booking.
• jeffrey (8/5): - Uitzichtpunt vanuit de tuin. Vriendelijke host. Het bed was keihard, en als er meerdere mensen zijn wezen douche is er koud water.
• Viola (10/5): Excellent - Everything was perfect . Clean place. Very delicious breakfast . The location was also good. And the grandpa was very sweet man. Nothing
• Maria (9/5): -
• Alexander (9/5): Beautiful stay!! Thank you - Lovely grandpa who prepared breakfast. Very nice stay close to the city of Gjirokaster. Parking on 100 meters of the house on a big parking. Thank you!!
• Viktor (10/5): -
• Guest (9/5): -
• Mabel (8/5): - La ubicación. Además tiene una terraza muy acogedora con vistas al castillo. Huele un poco a humedad, pero es soportable. Por otro lado, no es aconsejable si tienes fobia a las avispas, la terraza esta plagada.
• Anna (9/5): Grandpa's perfect peaceful home - Perfect location and lovely views from the terrace. 'Grandpa' looked after us well and made lovely breakfasts and treated us to some homemade raki.
• Patrick (9/5): - Ondanks een steile tocht naar boven toch dicht bij het centrum
• Caroline (8/5): - Easy to find, great location and balcony, value for money. View across to the castle was stunning. I'm not a fan of a walk in shower room as everything gets soaked. But that's just me.
• Dennis (10/5): - Great location, near the castle and so called 'old town' (touristy area) and the lovely center where the locals spend their time (downhill). The car parking is easily reachable (no challenging steep roads). The (first floor) room was clean, tidy and had everything we needed, including a well functioning AC, comfortable bed and good shower. Grandpa helped us with a smile on his face and drank a glass of raki with us. If you want authentic Albanian hospitality and a friendly place to stay, Grandpa's home is a great pick. Nothing, really. Great hospitality and great value for money.
• Emmanuelle (10/5): Perfect - Short version : we loved the guesthouse! Everything was perfect. The room, the breakfast, the location. Owner very kind. And let's talk about the view !! Amazing !! I could come back in Albania just to be there and spending time in Gjirokaster.
• Guest (10/5): Charming home stay In Gjirokastra!! - Such a comfortable and enjoyable stay at Grandpa’s home. The accommodation is in an excellent location, only a ~10 minute walk to the new bazaar and the steps of the castle. Grandpas home has all the natural charm of a classic Albanian home + grandpa to cook you breakfast in the morning on the terrace (a must while you stay here!). We found the room well equipped, clean and comfortable. Would absolutely recommend staying here!!!
• André (9/5): -
• Holly (10/5): - Great location, comfortable room, and "grandpa" was very friendly and helpful!
• Matthieu (10/5): - Très bon accueil, vue magnifique, superbe jardin. Rien
• Antonia (10/5): - Super chambre, tout était propre et fonctionnel. Le lit était très confortable et le personnel super gentil.
• Abi (10/5): Absolutely wonderful - highly recommend! - The room was very clean and spacious, with a super king bed which was a lovely surprise! Very firm mattress but we got used to it after one night. Grandpa is adorable - be aware that he does not speak any English so if you need to communicate he will call his daughter or you could use Google translate. The location is truly excellent - a 5 minute walk from the bottom of the bazaar so it’s close to amenities but far enough away that it is very quiet. Except for a happy rooster who will make himself known each morning! This place is truly excellent value for money. We would recommend staying in Gjirokaster for at least 2 nights - you’ll need a minimum of 1 full day to make the most of this amazing place. We were very happy - no negatives!
• Timo (10/5): Very romantic location with a great view and perfect breakfast - The view, atmosphere, breakfast, bedroom, grandpas raki -
• Samuel (9/5): - Lage, Personal, Sauberkeit. Das Bad (privat) war unerwarteterweise nicht im Zimmer. Sonst alles ganz gut.
• Izïa (10/5): Exceptionnel, à couper le souffle - Grandpa est finalement le grand père qu’on rêve tous d’avoir. La communication avec sa fille était claire. La chambre était parfaite, rien à signaler. Le petit déjeuner est excellent, prêt à l’heure souhaitée, pas cher. La terrasse est à couper le souffle. Nous avons passé une nuit exceptionnelle. Je recommande vivement.
• Guest (10/5): - Muy límpio, terraza preciosa, muy bien situado, señor muy simpático Que no hubiese cortinas, entraba mucha luz. Almoada incomoda
• Amir Peres (8/5): It's what you need for a cheap night at the old city - Close to the old city and castle. The guy was very kind and even gave me a glass of his homemade Raki. The balconi was magical. The room was just basic. No more, no less. It's not bad and no good. The door to the entrance hall is a wooden door that does not isolate voices, and the key is a basic key
• Paulsen (10/5): - Nydelig sted! Rene fine rom, og en hyggelig hage med utsikt til borgen. Verten var så vennlig og imøtekommende at vi vurderte å ta ham med oss hjem til Norge 😄 Enkel, men svært velsmakende frokost. Anbefales varmt!
• Guest (9/5): - Een goede locatie dichtbij het oude centrum. Ontbijten tussen de druivenranken met uitzicht op de bergen: erg mooi! De gastheer, grandpa, is super lief en gezellig. Het is een beetje gehorig, en houd er rekening mee dat er niet altijd een parkeerplek is in de straat, en op veel plekken mag je niet staan.
• Jeffry (10/5): Een heerlijke plek dichtbij het centrum, maar toch lekker rustig. De kamers waren heel ruim. - Wij hebben geen ontbijt erbij genomen.
• Mommo (9/5): -
• ARIADNI (10/5): -
• Schouten (8/5): Gastvrij en toplocatie! - Lieve host! We kregen zijn zelfgemaakte Raki als welkomstcadeau. De accommodatie heeft een heerlijk zitplekje met mooi uitzicht! Het ontbijt was groot en lekker.
• ELIA (10/5): Estancia perfecta en apartamento encantador - Apartamento bien ubicado apenas a 10 minutos caminando del nucleo antiguo. La habitación era cómoda y la terraza era muy bonita, con vistas al castillo. El anfitrión es un adorable señor mayor que nos hizo sentir como en casa. Recomiendo coger la opción de desayuno que ofrecen ya que vale mucho la pena y además se puede probar su magnifico raki casero.
• Ouri (10/5): -
• Guest (10/5): - Colazione favolosa, gentilezza e cordialità che in questi tempi sono veramente preziose. Posizione comodissima. La terrazza sotto le vigne dove si a colazione con vista su una delle vallette della città è un incanto. Il padrone di casa è stato veramente gentile, ci ha accompagnato da un meccanico che conosceva perché non ci partiva la macchina, ha portato il meccanico fino alla nostra auto il quale ha riparato il guasto e poi ha riportato indietro il meccanico. Tutto con una semplicità amabile e sinceramente soccorrevole. Grazie di cuore per tutto Valerio Pietro Paolo
• Marta (9/5): - La casa es una monada, con unas vistas preciosas y a 4 minutos del centro histórico del pueblo, perfecto para tener silencio y estar en el meollo al mismo tiempo. Además, el dueño es encantador. El único aspecto que no me terminó de encantar de la casa es el baño fuera de la habitación. Aunque privado, tienes que salir al pasillo para acceder, y pierdes privacidad. No recuerdo si este detalle se menciona cuando reservas la habitación, pero me parece importante.
• Guest (10/5): Tutto perfetto - Posizione perfetta. Struttura molto carina e accogliente. Personale gentile e disponibile.
• Victor (10/5): Exceptional -
• Azra (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jenette (10/5): Our accomodation was comfortable and within walking distance from the bazaar, and the host was friendly and hospitable. - The host was so kind and accommodating, the room was clean and very practical. We had a great time and would definitely return. Everything was great.
• Ida (10/5): Exceptional - A lot of value for money here! Cutest little house with three rooms and a lovely garden. It is in the more calm part of the old town of Gjirokaster, which was perfect for us. It was only a 10 minute walk to the center of old town. Thanks for a lovely stay!
• Anonymous (9/5): Great value and lovely owner very satisfied - Clean, great views, lovely staff Very uphill
• George (10/5): Exceptional - Grandpa was extremely accommodating and greeted us with a free shot of his homemade Raki. The facilities were exceptional and the location unbeatable. Absolutely nothing.
• Mihlali (8/5): Very good -
• Nishadi (10/5): Such a wholesome and inviting stay, gorgeous home and garden and being fed a breakfast by grandpa himself was so nice. - Clean, homey and convenient location to the centre. Peaceful and a short walk out of the main tourist centre. Grandpa was so kind and enjoyed our presence in his home. Everything was fab
• Tim (10/5): Great value , family run accomodation. - Great value for money , very clean & in a good location for the old town. Its a Family run business, whom are keen that you enjoy their accommodation and hosting. Thanks to all for making us feel welcome. Tim & Jenny All was good..
• Magart76 (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful owners. Very close to Old Town. Very cozy place
• Masciantonio (10/5): Couldn't fault it! - Such a beautiful place to stay! Owner was great over WhatsApp and 'Grandpa' cooked us a lovely breakfast. The room was great and everything you need. Parking was easy and the location was perfect :) The only thing that troubled us was the construction right outside our window that was really loud and woke us up super early but not their fault or anybody's really 🤷‍♀️
• Amanda (10/5): Enjoyable and pretty - A lovely spot, easy to walk into town, comfortable bed and clean room, great terrace to sit and enjoy the scenery. It felt very homely and comfortable. The host texted with details and to welcome us. Very happy with the experience.
• Harry (10/5): Such a warm and welcoming stay, at a great location with amazing views. - Location was perfect for visiting the old town and it was easy to find parking. Host was incredibly warm and friendly and offered us homemade raki. The breakfast was delicious and great value. Would recommend it to anyone 100%.
• Xhafa (10/5): Super super friendly host! Felt very familiar and close to them during the stay. The property is near the old bazaar, al -
• González (10/5): Exceptional -
• Svetlana (10/5): Everything was great! - Grandpa's home is homely guesthouse. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The location is great, not too far from the old town and a short walk up hill to the castle. There is beautiful terrace with view of the castle. Our host was very friendly. When we arrived we were offered raki on the terrace. The language was not problem for understanding each other. The owner recommended us restaurant Rrapi. The food was very tasty. You can order the food in the house. Nothing.
• María (10/5): Cozy, clean and nice! - Everything was great! The rooms were spacious and clean, the mattress comfy, and the view amazing! Also location 10/10, it's only a short walk to the bazaar. The breakfast was great, and the fact that it was served by the owner made our stay more special and cozy. Everything was great, the only thing was that one bathroom didn't have a proper shower space. But that's alright.
• Renáta (10/5): Totally satisfied - Very nice accomodation, super clean and very typical albanian house. I recommend it 100 %. The daugher of the owner contacted me by whatsapp so we could ask her everything we want. It´s very centric location, safe place and there were enough place to park the car. The grandpa doesnt speak english but it´s very nice. He prepared us a rich breakfast for only 4 euros and also he offered us a homemade raki. Definitelly would stay again.
• Steph (9/5): Great - The location was beautiful and well signposted and the room was very clean. The breakfast was good. Grandpa was lovely and the raki was strong! It would have been nice to have a kettle in our room so we can make hot drinks.
• Aysun (8/5): Very good - - the location is ideal to visit the castle - the host is available through whatsapp so you can easily discuss when needed it will be even better if there was a kettle :)
• Margaret (10/5): Exceptional - Breakfast on the terrace was a highlight. Our room was comfortable and clean and there was a washing machine we could use. Hassan, our host was very friendly and obliging.
• Alexandra (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic place to stay! Everything was very clean, the location was great and the breakfast was delicious! Would recommend!
• Anna (10/5): Perfectly located and comfortable stay - The name of the stay does not disappoint. We directly felt like visiting a loving grandparent. The location is great, not too far from the old town but far enough to have a quiet night of sleep. The tasty breakfast on the terrace in the sun with a view was an amazing experience. Grandpa didn’t speak much English but it was very easy to communicate anyways and we felt very comfortable and he was very attentive. We would definitely book again!
• Eric (9/5): Very good stay - Very great location and host who took great care of us. Breakfast on the terrace, with the citadel in the background, a real pleasure… except when it rains… 🥲
• Yara (7/5): The owner and hi daugher are friendly. And responds fast. - It was quiet and clean. It was a decent accommodation. Not much in the room. Just slippers and toilet paper.
• Noreen (9/5): Superb - The host was extremely kind and hospitable. A true gentleman who was very patient with our inability to speak Albanian. A good location close to the old town but not in the busy, noisy part. A pleasant outdoor sitting area.
• Gergő (10/5): Exceptional -
• David (10/5): Our stay at Grandpas house was excellent and made all the better by our generous host Hassan. - It is a beautifully renovated old stone building near the centre of the city it has a wonderful garden to relax in out of the heat of summer. Nothing
• Bruce (10/5): A completely authentic Gjirokastër stay. - Hassan and Anisa were perfect hosts. The home is authentic with all modern comforts. Hassan welcomes everyone and is very friendly even with the communication gap that we had. The terrace is beautiful for having a cool drink and is very nice for Hassan’s home cooked breakfast. The location just short walk up hill to the old town and castle makes the location perfect. We rate this as one of our favourite stays in Albania. Nothing
• Saimir (10/5): Wonderful. Will stay again next time I’m back in Gjirokaster. - The location is a bit tough to find if you get to the street from SH4 (E853) using the booking photos, because the little writing on a wall with an arrow showing the home is visible if you’re going the opposite direction on that stone street (from the bazar side). It’s steep road from sh4, but wide enough that it’s not a problem. Just go up in first or second gear. The home itself is down a few steps off the main cobblestone street. It’s listed on google so if you have data then it should be easy to find. We had the room with the bathroom outside of the room. The bet was king size. Firm memory foam, but it felt comfortable. The AC is good. The bed and the sheets were clean, the room was clean and spacious enough for two people with a large luggage and a carry on. The bathroom is a typical south Albania bathroom where the shower will wet the whole bathroom, but it dries out if you leave the door and window open. The hangout area with the tables and chairs was nice, breezy in the late evening, early night. The owner (grandpa) who doesn’t speak English is friendly and he will give you wine or raki (Albanian grappa) he makes himself. The raki is tasty and smooth, so it’s good for those who have never tried it and are curious about it. Location is good, close to the bazaar. The bazaar itself is for tourists, so be warned you’ll be charged tourist prices (even if you’re a local). It’s cute there nonetheless. The castle is close by, we drove and it was adventurous. It looked like the walk would’ve been ok too, just be ready for steep slopes. Nothing.
• Zuzana (10/5): Exceptional - Close to the city center. Great breakfast. Clean, beautifull rooms. Quiet. Very nice experience.
• Juan (10/5): Totally recommended - Very beautiful, comfortable and amazing attention
• Juan (10/5): Exceptional - It is a very beautiful hotel with spacious rooms with AC. Staff is very nice and helpful. The location is great just next to all touristic attractions. You can pay a (very) small fee for an exceptionally good breakfast. Grandpa does not speak English which can cause some confusion but don't worry he can mimic very well until you understand him :)
• Rachel (9/5): Superb -
• Ben (10/5): Exceptional - The room was very spacious and also very tidy. The hotel is a short walk to central Gjirokastër and many of the main attractions. The breakfast was also great, and served by Grandpa himself! Nothing
• Anna (10/5): Amazing stay - Absolutely everything! The hospitality at this guesthouse is exceptional and we loved chatting to the host and trying his homemade wine, raki and fruit on the beautiful terrace. It was a wonderful stay, our favourite accommodation of our trip to Albania. Thank you 😊 Nothing
• Jemma (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kate (10/5): Amazing location, breakfasted on the veranda with an amazing view , really stunning - Lovely breakfast and very accommodating host Parking could be tricky if streets were busy
• Georgia (10/5): We absolutely loved our stay at grandpas house! Honestly the best accommodation with best value for money. It’s in an ab - EVERYTHING it was perfect!! Nothing - it was perfect!
• Marie (9/5): Tranquil and clean accommodation. - Beautiful outside area. The room and bathroom were spotless. The location was quiet and not too far from everything. Had a nice glass of wine from the owner. Communication through the host's daughter was good, but her father did not say much to us. We were unsure if breakfast was offered as I missed a message from the daughter.
• Max (10/5): Excellent - We felt very welcome during our stay. Grandpa provided wine/raki to try and supplied a lovely breakfast with a great view. The location is great, a five minute walk to the old town. I would recommend to anyone staying in gjirokaster.
• Grace (10/5): Felt like I was at home but in a beautiful setting - The property is beautiful and the rooms are clean and comfortable with all the amenities needed Nothing
• Wieke (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mia (10/5): Underrated and unmissable stay! - We had an absolutely incredible stay at Grandpa’s Home! It’s in a beautiful location, 5 minutes from the old town and nestled in the beautiful country side. The room was immaculate and clean, had soap, and everything we needed for the night! Grandpa and his daughter, Anisa, were so friendly and went above and beyond to help us and make our stay magical. Not one thing I would fault about our stay! Nothing - it was perfect!
• Alicia (10/5): Fantastic - This was one of our favourite stays in Albania, this house is gorgeous and tranquil, very comfortable and clean rooms, hosts are very good at giving information via WhatsApp and grandpa prepared a beautiful breakfast in the morning with a side of raki! Gorgeous views from the terrace, a short walk to the main bazar and street parking available That we didn’t stay longer!!
• Laura (9/5): Grandpa was a great host. - Very friendly and welcoming. Beautiful entry and courtyard, comfortable stay. Close to old town. Great breakfast. Nothing
• David (7/5): Good - The breakfast available for an extra fee was very good. Lovely shares patio outside apartment.
• Lydia (10/5): Exceptional - This property was perfect - in a great location and very well equipped with a lovely terrace. The host was very attentive and sweet, and did everything he could to help. Self check-in was easily accommodated due to our late arrival. A word of warning if driving - not against the property atall, but it is located on the lovely windy streets of the town. Many of these cannot be driven on despite what google maps may say, so I recommend asking for advice on how to drive to the property from the main road.
• Berit (9/5): Superb -
• Eilish (9/5): Superb -
• Frances (10/5): Stunning place to stay when you visit Gjirokastër - Huge bed, which was comfortable. Exceptionally clean. Perfect location. Little terrace stunning. Delicious breakfast. Excellent communication via WhatsApp with owners daughter to deal with arrival time/parking queries/breakfast request. There is a cockeral next door. Take ear plugs if light sleeper, he says good morning to the sunrise.
• Damian (10/5): Exceptional - This place is kick ass. Grandpa was incredibly hospitable and provided us with traditional and homemade raki on arrival. He also prepared breakfast the following day. Lovely and comfortable room in a great location. Highly recommend! Absolutely nothing. It was perfect.
• Marie (8/5): Very good - Good location, nice terras for breakfast, easy to park in the street The host doesn’t speak English but is very kind
• Lale (10/5): Authentic B&B - What a lovely place. Relaxing little garden, with the glucking sound of chicken. Feels you are in the country side, although the centre and castle are in a short walking distance. Room spotless clean and very quiet. What makes this place is owner Hassan offering his home made wine and raki. Parking easy and almost in front of the house. Would stay again.
• Metzi (10/5): Perfect location. - A very well carried property with a beautiful terrace complete with view of castle and mountains. Our host was very kind and affable. Close to everything you need, but very quiet at night as it’s tucked away down side alley. Very comfortable beds. I would not hesitate to recommend this guest house.
• Abdur (10/5): Exceptional stay and close to Gjirokaster Centre, it is just an uphill walk - It Had a very nice, beautiful view. The room was clean and the host was very welcoming and hospitable. Breakfast was also very nice and a generous amount. Be a bit careful if you are going by car as the GPS isn't up to date with some of the roads around there.
• Monika (8/5): Good vibes only at Grandpa’s home! - - very good vibe - great location - spacious and clean room - comfy beds - terrace with a view - smooth communication - friendly owners who made us feel as visiting grandparents - salty breakfast (it would be great, if breakfast would be served with an option to salt it on your own:)), I didn’t have the heart to complain about it, as the owner was too sweet:).
