Host review score
Flora's Guesthouse is a private house where tourists, with the interest of visiting Gjirokastra city, can stay. It is placed in the old centre of the city and it provides a breathtaking view. Flora's Guesthouse offers 3 rooms, 2 bathrooms and there is also a kitchen for a family. There is also a terrace where you can enjoy the wind of the afternoon, surrounded by beautiful flowers and the tweets of birds. The speciality of this guesthouse is that you can watch about 150 ancient objects dated over 50 years ago, which can be shown also to tour guides. Something that can't be missed are the traditional meals cooked by the owner of the house with a very minimalist price. Flora's Guesthouse knows how to make happy people who wants to have an enjoyable staying, so if you are thinking of a place in Gjirokaster, free of noise and with a lot of space, choose it.
The neighbourhood where Flora's guesthouse is placed is called "Partizani" which is only a few meters away from the old centre of Gjirokaster called "Pazar". It is also close to the castle, which is a very important tour spot. As these neighbourhood is situated close the mountain "Mali i Gjere" you can enjoy the fresh air and the amazing view from the other mountain called "Mali i Lunxherise". This may sound strange but Gjirokastra is a city surrounded by high mountains from all its sides. Something very important is that the neighbourhood is quiet so your stay will be quite peaceful.
