The location was fantastic and within walking distance of all the major sights. It’s located in the old town, up the mountain. Make sure Google takes you on the best safe route. If it looks scary, take another path. It’s a family run business and everyone is there to help make your stay enjoyable. The staff were incredibly kind and sweet. They helped us park the car, carry in luggage, and answered all the questions we had. They also have suggestions on where to go and what sights were worth visiting. Breakfast was wonderful. We had the chance to try some local dishes with our omelettes, along with fresh fruit and coffee. We would definitely come back and recommend this place to everyone.

The room is smaller than average, but the balcony made it worth it. We loved sitting on the balcony with some local wine.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Donald and his entire family for the warm welcome and exceptional hospitality during our stay. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with smiles and great kindness. He was also extremely responsive to our questions and provided valuable advice. The accommodation was impeccably clean, well-equipped, and tastefully decorated. The breakfast was very good and generous. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a pleasant and worry-free stay in Gjirokastër. We hope to have the opportunity to return soon!

Palorto hotel is a great choice for accommodation, when you visit Gjirokaster. Parking is available a few minutes from the hotel. The bazar and the castle are within a short walk. Breakfast is served in a beautiful garden and it is very delicious with traditional, home-made food. It is a bit tricky to find the hotel. I suggest to look for Skenduli House or Ethnographic Museum and walk to find the hotel.

Everything was perfect! The breakfast was very tasty and full, the people of the hotel are very kind, always smiley and ready to do everything for the best experience. The room was clean and cozy, we had new towels etc every day and hot water as soon as you opened the faucet. The hotel was 2-3 minutes from the old town by foot, very close to everything you need. We really enjoyed our stay and if we ever come back to Argirokastro we definitely choose Palorto! Greetings from Greece!

Modern, nicely decorated rooms. Even had a kettle with some tea and coffee provided in the rooms. Really nice courtyard for breakfast. Great breakfast including coffee and fresh fruit. Small town so location is great as everything is walkable.

We found it tricky to drive to, google maps suggested a route which was not suitable for cars. It's worth ringing the hotel to let them know you are on your way and they can help you find a space to park in the street. Streets are cobbled and sometimes narrow, so patience and careful driving required.

They helped us to get our luggage into our room and afterwards guided us to the parking lot. We used the (fast) laundry service, which was convenient. The room was nice and clean. We Had a nice balkony. Breakfast was plenty and tasteful.

In the bathroom the drain was kind of smelly and putting water in it didn't help. But this was just some small inconvenience. The rest was very good.

A hotel very close to the center of the old town with its picturesque streets, the castle and the sights of the city, clean, chic, with a well-kept garden and lots of nature. Friendly hosts, possibility to pay in euros, spacious balcony with table and chairs, good breakfast.

The hotel is quite hard to find, unmarked, located in the old part of the city with up and down streets, paved with cubic stone, narrow, with areas where two cars often do not have room to pass each other. We recommend caution to those who arrive there by car. Very loud music in the neighbors that could be heard all over the street until late evening. Aggressive mosquitoes in the hotel yard. Small room even for two people, cramped, with balcony door opening into the bed, with little free space available. The parking lot is further from the hotel.

The owners were such lovely, kind people who parked my car for me! Despite needing sat nav to find, it was in a brilliant location to everything. The breakfasts were superb and beautifully presented. One carrier bag of washing for 5 euros. The view from the balcony and a very clean, comfortable and modern room. Coffee machine in the room.

There were no shelves in the bathroom and not enough in the bedroom to put toiletries and clothes

It is a hotel run by a family with a stunning high hospitality standard. They all are ambiguously involved and passionately want to make customers happy. For instance they placed a reservation for a bus to Berat for us. Here you get more than a room, here you feel home although everything is quite different compared to our common Western European style. The small hotel with its 9 rooms has been renovated recently (at least the first floor, we haven’t been on the second floor). It is very clean and really stylish. The owner combined skilfully modern and traditional style and shows very good taste by combining stone walls, wood spotlights with turquoise lamps. Here and there is a turquoise highlight, e.g. the doors and their fashionable frames. The whole place is cleverly designed, e.g. there are mirrors in the hall which makes it more space. Definitely worth to mention is the patio with colourful flowers everywhere. Here you get the home made breakfast served. Such a pleasure to start your day there. Plus the breakfast changes everyday. As it is a small hotel and clever arranged it is always quite. The perfect place to relax. On the other hand the city is nearby. Just a three minute walk to the first restaurant. Across the street is the traditional house which you can visit and enjoy a tour describing the life of the olden days. The castle is also close. All in all the hotel is great located.

Nothing

We arrived to the hotel a bit late but they were very understanding and our room was ready with no issues. They quickly helped us settle, suggested places we can visit. The room heated up quickly with the ac, the water was very hot. We wanted to have our breakfast at 9:00 and it was all ready and delicious. Thank you for this nice experience. If we ever go back, we'd definetly stay here again.
