The hotel has very historical feeling decoration. The room is clean and with nice castle view. The staff is helpful and friendly. The breakfast is nice. The only downside is that at night, our room on the 3rd floor was a bit cold. It would be no problem for warmer days.

The hotel manager and staff are first class. Very helpful and pleasant. Breakfast was enough to feed a village and very tasty. Location was close to all the highlights of the town. Our room was large and spotless. Thank you to all making our stay very enjoyable

I cannot recommend this place enough. Along with being beautiful , friendly clean and safe the service was above and beyond truly one of the best experiences we have had in a long time and can’t imagine staying anywhere else when I’m back in the lovely city of gjirokaster

Great location and one of the nicest hotels we stayed at in Albania! Room was spacious and bathroom finishings were all new. Slight disappointment that they don't turn the espresso machine on until after breakfast (pretty bad coffee), but the breakfast itself makes up for this shortcoming.

We had a great 1 night stay. Hotel is central to sights. First room was just as requested but neighbours chimney smoke began to blow into our room so we were changed to a lively 2 room suite thanks to Denis contacting the owner.

Hotel Kalemi 2 is a very special hotel. Our suite was in a traditional style but with a very comfortable bed and a modern bathroom. The views from our room were spectacular. The staff was wonderful and the breakfast was delicious. We were able to park right outside the hotel entrance. A beautiful place to stay when you visit Gjirokaster!

Hotel Kalemi 2 was outstanding! The hotel and rooms are a benchmark for how these beautiful ottoman houses can be restored and maintained. But more importantly, the staff was what made this stay one of my best hotel experiences ever. They went out of their way to help us and enjoy our stay in town. I highly recommend Kalemi 2!

10/10

Absolutely beautiful, and the staff is first class. The views are incredible, and everything you need is right outside of your door. I truly hope we have an opportunity to visit again. Access is challenging because it is in the old town, but once you arrive, there is on site parking. Enjoy!

This property is hard to find. It is up an old old stone narrow road It is a real challenge to get to but when you find it you will be thrilled with its location and how beautiful it is.

We booked 2 nights, liked it so much, added a 3rd. The hotel is right where the most scenic part of Old Town begins, and has all the charm of the unique architecture here - while being a beautifully modern hotel. Staff were very welcoming and thoughtful from when we arrived to our departure. We booked a room at the top of the hotel, 3rd floor no elevator. If that's OK with you I'd say grab it! We had views of the castle, the valley, the town and were right next to the roof top deck where we enjoyed having drinks at night. Nice big room with with beautiful woodwork everywhere. Breakfast was the great Balkan standards and eggs made to order. All in all a pleasure. Staff helped us find the route to the bridge and also confirmed the bus departure time for our next stop. Loved our stay!
