Absolutely LOVED my stay here. The owner, Gabrielle is an amazing host who makes you feel so welcome and at home. My room had fantastic view of the river and bridges, there is also a restaurant and terrace above. Room and property is very clean and well kept. It was very quiet so always a great sleeping experience. Bed and pillows very comfy. She made me breakfast every morning and was so helpful with suggestions and insights to the town. I would for sure stay here again, Thanks again to the owner and her family for such an wonderful and charming place

Hotel was on the hill so no parking next to it. Public parking approximately 15 minutes away. Pack light and be ready to walk historical narrow steep walk ways to hotel. This hotel has a really nice restaurant with a great view to the old town.

Guesthouse in historic part of Berat

Beautifully located in upper old city the guesthouse gives access to the terrace with bedt views od old part of Berat. Rooms and common areas are perfectly clean. Private bathroom in our room was pretty small and the breakfast could be a little bit more varied. But apart from these little things we ansolutely loved the place.

オーナーさんはとても優しかった。 朝食は美味しかった。 ホテルは旧市街の高所にあるため、部屋と朝ごはん会場からは街を一望できる綺麗な景色を見ることができた。 しかし高所にあるため、ホテルに辿り着くためには角度が急な階段をいくつか登らないいけない。そのため、重いスーツケースを持ってきた友達は登るのが大変そうだった。 部屋は清潔で快適であったが、トイレの流れが少し良くなかった。

Otel sahibi gerçekten çok cana yakın. Uçuşumuz gece olduğu için geliş saatimiz sabaha karşıydı. Oteli önceden bilgilendirdiğimiz için geldiğimiz saatte giriş işlemlerimizde problem çıkmadı. Sabah kahvaltı saati ve çıkış saatimizde otel sahibi dinlenebilmemiz için esneklik sağladı. Otel gerçekten müze gibi, konaklamıyorsanız bile mutlaka görülmesi gereken bir yer.

Highly recommend

On the very top of the Mangalem neighbourhood and with extraordinary views from the rooftop terrace. Extremely pleasant stay with nice host, good breakfast and vis-a-vis the popular Lili’s Restaurant. I stayed in a single room, which has no view (in fact just a small window facing the cliff), but really good value for money

Bien, mais accès improbable 😬

Cet hôtel est introuvable car dans les dédales de la vieille ville. Stationnement en bas et il faut arriver à la limite de l'évanouissement avec sacs et bagages. Une cata... Une fois installé la chambre est petite mais ça va pour un cours séjour. L'hôtel à du cachet et le couple de patron est très sympa. Une vue exceptionnelle du restau et de la terrasse. Bonne ambiance nocturne.

Good hotel in Berat

The room has a great river view and there is also a terrace for the guests. The breakfast was good and the staff was helpful. Unfortunately there is no parking by the hotel as the hotel is uphill and no building is accessible by car, you need to leave a car on a street. The hotel is not easy to reach with the luggage as the streets are very steep but the staff can help.
