Nice guesthouse with amazing views of the mountain and Gjrokastra. Walking distance from the main area. The host is great and prepares delicious breakfast. Would recommend

“Warm welcoming host, amazing view!!”

The host was very lovely lady. gave us a warm welcome. She helped us by giving detailed explanations on what to see, how to get to these places, food to try etc. She sent us pictures and videos on how to get to the property , which was very helpful. The breakfast was lovely , really enjoyed the coffee. The view is just wow!! She also let us use the parking spot after checkout time. Would come back here.

“Cozy with a view”

Clockwise Guestrooms is the cozy choice with a view! Our host Joana was the best! She did everything to make our stay as comfortable as possible - from a video of the best way to the hostel to offering an extended stay as my friend got sick. We felt absolutely welcomed and whenever we will come back to Gjirokastra the clockwise will be our first choice!

We loved our stay in Clockwise in Gjirokaster! Ioanna and Aenes were truly warm and helpful hosts, they managed our 2and a half years old girl, Alkyoni, wandering around and asking all the time " What are you doing kurios?". 😂They kindly welcomed us in the living room whenever we wanted and needed and responded to any need. The old town is located around 15 minutes by foot,.the view is awesome and the breakfast by Ioanna superb! Surely we will come again, thank you for everything! 😃🥰

Definitely will be back! The host is incredible—very welcoming and helpful. The place is excellent: clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. We had a great stay and highly recommend it.

“Amazing accommodation with beautiful views, exceptional hosts, and comfortable rooms!”

Lovely accommodation in a great area. Short walk from the bazaar and Gjirokaster castle. The host Joana provided directions to get to the property by car and also directions to the main attractions in the town. The room was very cosy with a comfy bed, nice lighting, and good storage. The breakfast area had cute lights and a gorgeous view of the castle and valley. Joana is an amazing, kind, and thoughtful host who gives amazing recommendations for things to do in the area. She picked us up from the bus station and dropped us off when we were leaving which saved us walking up a steep hill. The breakfast she provides is delicious and rotated options of Albania good across the stay so we weren’t eating the same thing everyday. We had an absolutely amazing stay and would highly recommend Joana’s accommodation to anyone visiting Gjirokaster!

Joana was a great host - gave us lots of tips and links to sites to visit and booked a winery lunch. The breakfast and view from the breakfast area was fantastic!

“Perfect in everyway - family who ran it were so helpful and friendly, room was gorgeous and the view spectacular! Locati”

Absolutely everything!!! - if you get a chance to stay at this incredible accomodation do!! We’ve been traveling it’s our favourite by far!!

The host was exceptionally welcoming and caring for us. Unfortunately I got ill during the trip and the host was kind enough to drive us to the hospital, translate Albanian into English, pick up medicine, and make lunch. She honestly was too kind. My girlfriend and I are so grateful for the kindness and hospitality she showed us :) The breakfast in the morning is excellent! A broad range of items such as bread, eggs, pancakes, cheese, and jam/marmalade. The view when eating breakfast was incredible and worth a million by itself. Its in the shadow so the hot summer sun doesnt burn you in the morning. Parking was also good. Plenty of space for cars. The host provides you with driving directions when asked. The room itself was comfy and had all the amenities you wanted. AC also worked great.

Beautiful breakfast view - also really enjoyed our own little balcony. A bit of distance from the crowds, gave a more authentic view of Gjirokastër. Great hostess!

Joana was a great host at Clockwise Guesthouse and we had a fantastic stay at this beautiful place. The view over the castle from the terrace was incredible and it was just a short walk through to the centre of town. Joana was really helpful in helping us sort local activities and answering any questions we had about the area. She made us a lovely breakfast and we all slept well in the cosy rooms.

“Great stay with easy checkin, quick responses from Joana, and a lovely terrace with music to relax!”

Cozy room, the host is really helpfull and kind. The breakfast served with the panoramic view is amazing.

“Would definitely recommend and go back!!”

Even though we only stayed for one night, it was hard to no notice the good service! Joana was helpful from the start with a good guide to get ourself to the hotel and also flexible with check-in. When we arrived she recommended a great family owned restaurant at a wineyard close 15 min car drive from the guesthouse. She also had a friend that could drive us there so we could enjoy wine there. So happy she recommended that one - it was amazing food and atmosphere! The hotel has a beautiful view, great location to get to the bazaar. The breakfast was amazing and just all in all a great visit! Room was big and with a balcony also showing the stunning view.

Joana is a great guestwoman of this questhouse. The Guesthouse is on a beautiful place and we had a delicious breakfast on the most beautiful place with a view on the castle The room was cosy and the interior was nice. We received perfect information and short movies for reaching the accomodarion and the centre of Gjirokastër..

Lovely pleasant stay, Joanna was very helpful and the breakfast was very good

“Amazing host, stunning views, brilliant location.”

The wonderful location, 10 min walk to the historic old Bazar with so many restaurants, shops and bars. And a few minutes more to the historic castle. The views from the terrace were amazing and our host Joana was a shining gem. Breakfast served on the terrace was fantastic.

“Typical Albanian style, value for money”

Joan was really kind and helpful, suggesting lots of places to visit. The room was spotless. Breakfast was great with different foods every morning. Great place to stay.

The staff, the room. The house is 10 minutos walking distance from the center. Very quiet and peacefully. The views and breakfast were awesome!
