Excellent location, modern hotel, recommend!

Excellent location, only a few steps away from the heart of Girokaster but far enough not to hear all the noise/hustle and bustle. Room had an amazing view of the city. Breakfast was good, decent selection. Staff friendly and helpful, arranged taxi for us and driver picked us up from the hotel. Only place in all of our hotels in Albania that provided a kettle. Complementary water provided. Shower was good and toiletries provided. Lift in hotel too.

AC wasn’t as cool as I would like, also had a weird setting where the lower you made the temperature go, the hotter the room would get. So you need to increase the number on the remote to cool the room (which seems very counterintuitive).

I had a great stay at Hotel Fantasy in Gjirokaster. The room was small but had everything I needed and even had a view of the Castle. The staff were friendly and the hotel is in a great location. If you are walking from the bus stop, it is a 25 minute walk uphill

We were so lucky to come across this wonderful hotel. We arrived at our pre-booked accommodation to be told it wasn’t ready and found this hotel around the corner. It was the perfect solution, the receptionist was super helpful, the room was spacious and well appointed giving us a glorious view of the mountains, and although it is right in the heart of old town, its cliff face location made it feel like a sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle just meters away. Oh, and the location for sundowners - one of the best I’ve ever been to. sitting in the warm breeze with a cocktail at the end of the day watching the sun set while the eagles soar was truly special.

Terrible internet

Good hotel for overnight stay, it is located 2 minutes from famous bazaar. Rooms and breakfast are nothing special, but you ger what you need when traveling around.
Be aware, there is no on-site parking (you can park in a parking garagebon the other side of bazaar for 4 eur per night).

The bigest issue during the stay was internet, which was slow and interupting all the time (totaly useless and unacceptable).

Great hotel in Gjirokastër.

Excellent hotel with one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had - enjoyed while looking out to the mountain and city.

Service was faultless. They gave us an upgraded room for free and helped with printing documents.

The room was clean, air conditioned, comfy, and provided great views over the city.

This is a large and unmissable hotel in the old town part of the city (as you can probably tell from the photos). I had a triple room and it was massive. Breakfast was great, front desk staff was really helpful in helping me find some services for my phone and gave me great tips and tricks for navigating the city. Note that there isnt any soundproofing - this would generally be fine for me but I had the bad luck of sharing my floor with a large group of people who were partying and running around the floor and slamming doors until the wee hours. Despite that I still had a great short stay at the hotel.

No parking near the hotel

There is no parking near the hotel. When we booked the hotel, there was info written at the web page that the parking is near the hotel at the street. Reality is, that there is no car access to the hotel. You can drive in the narrow steep roads app. 300 m close to the hotel and them the road is closed, access is allowed only to hotel staff. There are even several signs directing drivers to the hotel, but that was valid in the past and not anymore.
After we called the hotel, they directed us to the parking space on the other side of the hotel and sent their driver to pick us up. If you do not have a lot of luggage, you can even walk to the hotel (5 minutes).
Staff help people to reach the hotel, but they should inform them in advance.

Otherwise the hotel is really nice, it was recently renovated. The surrounding is really charming. The hotels is located a 2-minute walk from the bazaar.

Verified traveler

The hotel is located just a few steps from the old bazaar, dining and other attractions and for those physically fit, Gjirokaster Castle is just a 15-20 minute of uphill walking. The hotel building and rooms are top-notch 5-star caliber. The view in the hotel terrace is superb. For those not used to the narrow, hilly streets of Europe, drive to the hotel may be daunting. Hotel Fantasy should give out a detailed way on how to get to their place correctly. Otherwise, time will be wasted on following erroneous suggestions from Google Map.

Attention si vous arrivez en voiture, le gps vous enverra dans de toutes petites rues pavées, quasi inaccessible avec un parking extremement cher. L'hôtel n'est pas accessible en voiture. Pour vos gps, notez le consulat de Grèce, vous trouverez en face un parking public : 5€ / 24 heures, finissez à pied, vous êtes à coté !

Vi slet litt med å finne fram, da vi kom seint på natt med bil og ikke hadde vært der tidligere. Men resepsjonisten satt klar med romnøkkelen :) hyggelig stab, vi rakk ikke frokost, men de tilbudte seg å lage noe ekstra likevel. Veldig vennlig folk, kjempekoselig sted og beliggenheten er helt fantastisk.

Amazing service, amazing stay!

We had trouble finding the hotel by car. (It was a bit difficult, so no wonder), but a lovely lovely receptionist came to the town square, where we had the car and got in the car to show us the way - which ended up being af nearly 10 minute driving going all the way down and up again - great service. The room was small, but very nice with a good size bathroom. Breakfast was amazing. Very close to a rooftop bar.
