The hostel offers a continental or vegetarian breakfast.

Guests at Stone City Hostel will be able to enjoy activities in and around Gjirokastër, like hiking. Just wow, usually I tend to give quick reviews but this one will be long because they deserve it, and keep in mind I've been working for months for a highly voted hostel in Malta. The place has been renovated, the common areas are welcoming (inside and outside), social activities are planned up ahead and nice, breakfast is super and a nice guy keeps giving you eggs and adding food to the table, everything is spotless clean and gets clean multiple times per day (toilets and showers too), laundry machine and dryer are brand new, plenty of sockets in the bunk bed, plus a shelf for phone etc, everything, I mean everything makes you feel at home and ease you in the backpacking vibes (that I missed so much). If you are going to visit Gjirokaster missing this hostel is definitely a mistake

They were taking care for everything we needed (you can wash your clothes for free), brought fruits and drinks, and even surprised us with an incredible dinner with lots of laughter and exchange using different languages in order to understand each other. It was more than special and I fully recommend. Thank you very much!

Bujtina Hadër Xhebro in Tepelenë provides accommodation with a garden and a bar. When you reach this guesthouse... not only do you find a house, but you feel like a real guest. A guest of the house, a guest of the family. Almost a member of the family. Try all the food. Try the "sarma", the cheese... the Trahana... everything is locally homemade. Fresh from the garden or the mountain around. Thanks, everyone! Ariola, Natasja, Urania, Uncle Jaho, and "Arbor". It was not just a stay... it was an experience with you all.
