    Key collection was so easy and we were helped with settling in by the owners. We were given great tips for restaurants and it was lovely chatting to the owners about the Albanian culture and way of life.

    UNESCO building and couldn’t ask for a better location — it’s just perfect. The rooms are very spacious, and the bathroom was spotless and well maintained. Everything felt clean and welcoming. The sheets and towels also had a fresh, pleasant...

    Very special location, comfortable and charming rooms. Great hosts! Hint, if you travel by car, give the hosts a call before driving up the hill, the Gjirokastër labyrinth is a bit crazy and your navigation won’t help you.

    Old Well Bazaar er det mest unike stedet vi har overnattet på vår reise i Albania. Det var rett og slett utrolig vakkert! Rommene, atmosfæren, beliggenheten, historiene som sitter i veggene.. for et sted!!! Vi bodde bokstavelig talt i Gjirokasters...

Our family owns a small apartment in a prime location within the heart of the bazaar. Given its central position, we recognized an opportunity to provide accommodations in one of Gjirokastra's most iconic buildings. The apartment is cozy and aesthetically decorated with handcrafted ceilings, beds, and doors. We offer two available rooms, one with a double bed and the other with two twin beds. During the renovation process, we prioritized preserving the original character of the house. From the apartment's windows, guests can enjoy a captivating view of the central bazaar and the castle. The surrounding area offers an array of amenities, including bars, pubs, shops, coffee shops, bakeries, and markets
The Old Bazaar in Gjirokastra, locally known as "Qafa e Pazarit," serves as the heart of the Old Town. The history of the Bazaar dates back to the 17th century, although not much remains from that era. Historical accounts indicate that a devastating fire severely impacted the old bazaar during the third quarter of the 19th century. Following the fire, the bazaar underwent complete reconstruction. As a result, the buildings share a consistent architectural style, with some having two stories and others having three. Despite these variations, they exhibit remarkable structural uniformity throughout. The first floor served as the artisans' daytime workplace, while the second floor had various uses depending on the shop.
