Set 45 km from Zaravina lake, Guesthouse Mele offers air-conditioned accommodation with a patio. Private parking is available on site. Guests can make use of the sun terrace or the outdoor fireplace, or enjoy views of the mountain and garden. Mele guest house was inside the old town and only few min walk from Old Bazar. An excellent choice if you are visiting Gjirokastër. The owner and his wife were very welcoming, and we enjoyed the breakfast with the superb view at the balcony.

Situated in Përmet, Funky Guest House & Adventures provides accommodation with seating area. This 3-star guest house offers a shared kitchen and luggage storage space. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available. Everything we needed in a great location. We arrived a bit early and were able to access our room straight away which was an added bonus. Good selection for breakfast. They also organised a rafting trip for us which was great fun and good value for money..

Boasting a bar and views of city, Kore Guest House is a guest house set in a historic building in Gjirokastër, 44 km from Zaravina lake. There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. The guest house features river views, a terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. The house is charming and very well cared for, and the rooms are nicely decorated, squeaky clean, and spacious. Very lovely family, friendly and attentive to your every need. In the morning we were treated to a great breakfast, with eggs, fruits, and local dishes, juice, tea, coffee included. Not to mention the nice view from the terrace where the breakfast is served. It is a pity we stayed only for 1 night, I would love to stay longer. The location is great if you are a pedestrian and a bit of a nightmare if you are driving a car. Getting there on narrow steep brick roads was a challenge, but when we got stuck, they came to our help, leading us through the street labyrinth. It is a short walk uphill to the castle, while the bazaar and restaurants are just around the corner.

Featuring a terrace and views of mountain, Guest House Emily is a recently renovated guest house located in Gjirokastër, 44 km from Zaravina lake. There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. The guest house features family rooms. This was our favorite place in our whole trip. After a long drive from Tirana, the view was absolutely breath-taking. The owner helped us park right away (easy parking in front of the building) and greeted us with fruit. The rooms are spotless and comfortable! The restaurant across the street was awesome and the breakfast was great, too! Only a few steps from the bazaar and a short hike to Ali Pasha Bridge. The view alone is worth the trip. We wished we could have stayed longer!
