Tepelenë Holiday Rentals

"Very nice hotel for our specific needs during our 1 night stay in late Dec 2025. Spacious and clean room for three people. Decor gives you a sense of Albania with dominant wood design as well as modern features. Reception was more of a host than a staff member as he accompanies you to your room to make sure that everything is in order and if you have any questions. He is welcoming, friendly, humble, and extremely hard working. Not a buffet style breakfast but an individual plate with more than enough variety of fruit/vegetable/hot items to get you started exploring the city. I do compare this hotel to the 2.5/3 star hotels in United States. I chose this hotel because of the ~10 walking from main bus terminal location. This is important to me. I could have chose a hotel closer to old bazaar or castle but walking up the steep cobble stone roads with luggage is not what I wanted. A supermarket on location is an added plus for my family if we needed to buy any snacks or drinks. Now for the negative experience which can be avoided is if you know that you will arrive earlier than 2pm check-in, call hotel as the host may not be on location despite what Orbitz says. This may help you drop off luggage to explore and not wait. Maybe during summer this doesn’t exist. Secondly, during colder off season months, our room heating did not work fast when started at 10C and took 12 hours of continuous heating to reach 20C. So maybe call host to preheat room before check-in."

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Perfect Stay! We had an incredible experience at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome—they were genuinely kind, attentive, and friendly. The holiday decor for Christmas was magical, creating such a festive and cozy atmosphere. Our room was beautiful, spotless, and very comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, which was perfect for planning our days and staying connected. The location couldn’t be better—close to all the main attractions yet peaceful enough to enjoy a restful night. Honestly, this was one of the best hotel stays we’ve ever had. We can’t wait to come back! "

"Amazing hotel due to breathtaking views and location to the old town!"

"It was a privilege to stay in the old town next to the castle in Gjirokaster. High above the modern city, next to castle and the old bazaar, it was not only convenient but an experience of a life from another time. Ever wonder what it’s like living way up on the hill in the castle? Last night residing in the old town, adjoining the castle, was that experience. Too high for any city lights to penetrate, it was dark skies. Only the stars and a sliver of the moon. No sound. Not traffic, horns or music. Treeless and without birds. Silence. Peace. This morning the roosters were even a far off event. Dogs a muffled little hum. Bliss. Highly recommended. "

"The scenery in this valley was gorgeous. My hiking, biking, & walking experience perfect. The natives were friendly people. The hotel restaurant was awesome. From the soup & salads to the roasted bbq lamb to the chicken & “rosnisat” AWESOME. The staff was nice. The proprietors were on site and very caring to their guests. “I’LL BE BACK”"
